A TEXT MINING RESEARCH BASED ON LDA TOPIC MODELLINGcscpconf
A Large number of digital text information is generated every day. Effectively searching,
managing and exploring the text data has become a main task. In this paper, we first represent
an introduction to text mining and a probabilistic topic model Latent Dirichlet allocation. Then
two experiments are proposed - Wikipedia articles and users’ tweets topic modelling. The
former one builds up a document topic model, aiming to a topic perspective solution on
searching, exploring and recommending articles. The latter one sets up a user topic model,
providing a full research and analysis over Twitter users’ interest. The experiment process
including data collecting, data pre-processing and model training is fully documented and
commented. Further more, the conclusion and application of this paper could be a useful
computation tool for social and business research.

A Document Exploring System on LDA Topic Model for Wikipedia Articlesijma
A Large number of digital text information is generated every day. Effectively searching, managing and
exploring the text data has become a main task. In this paper, we first present an introduction to text
mining and LDA topic model. Then we deeply explained how to apply LDA topic model to text corpus by
doing experiments on Simple Wikipedia documents. The experiments include all necessary steps of data
retrieving, pre-processing, fitting the model and an application of document exploring system. The result of
the experiments shows LDA topic model working effectively on documents clustering and finding the
similar documents. Furthermore, the document exploring system could be a useful research tool for

Farthest Neighbor Approach for Finding Initial Centroids in K- MeansWaqas Tariq
Text document clustering is gaining popularity in the knowledge discovery field for effectively navigating, browsing and organizing large amounts of textual information into a small number of meaningful clusters. Text mining is a semi-automated process of extracting knowledge from voluminous unstructured data. A widely studied data mining problem in the text domain is clustering. Clustering is an unsupervised learning method that aims to find groups of similar objects in the data with respect to some predefined criterion. In this work we propose a variant method for finding initial centroids. The initial centroids are chosen by using farthest neighbors. For the partitioning based clustering algorithms traditionally the initial centroids are chosen randomly but in the proposed method the initial centroids are chosen by using farthest neighbors. The accuracy of the clusters and efficiency of the partition based clustering algorithms depend on the initial centroids chosen. In the experiment, kmeans algorithm is applied and the initial centroids for kmeans are chosen by using farthest neighbors. Our experimental results shows the accuracy of the clusters and efficiency of the kmeans algorithm is improved compared to the traditional way of choosing initial centroids.
Topic Modeling for Information Retrieval and Word Sense Disambiguation tasksLeonardo Di Donato
Experimental work done regarding the use of Topic Modeling for the implementation and the improvement of some common tasks of Information Retrieval and Word Sense Disambiguation.
First of all it describes the scenario, the pre-processing pipeline realized and the framework used. After we we face a discussion related to the investigation of some different hyperparameters configurations for the LDA algorithm.
This work continues dealing with the retrieval of relevant documents mainly through two different approaches: inferring the topics distribution of the held out document (or query) and comparing it to retrieve similar collection’s documents or through an approach driven by probabilistic querying. The last part of this work is devoted to the investigation of the word sense disambiguation task.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”

3. Overview
The Vector Space Model (VSM) is a
way of representing documents through
the words that they contain
It is a standard technique in Information
Retrieval
The VSM allows decisions to be made
about which documents are similar to
each other and to keyword queries
4. How it works: Overview
Each document is broken down into a
word frequency table
The tables are called vectors and can
be stored as arrays
A vocabulary is built from all the words
in all documents in the system
Each document is represented as a
vector based against the vocabulary
5. Example
Document A
– “A dog and a cat.”
Document B
– “A frog.”
a dog and cat
2 1 1 1
a frog
1 1
6. Example, continued
The vocabulary contains all words used
– a, dog, and, cat, frog
The vocabulary needs to be sorted
– a, and, cat, dog, frog
7. Example, continued
Document A: “A dog and a cat.”
– Vector: (2,1,1,1,0)
Document B: “A frog.”
– Vector: (1,0,0,0,1)
a and cat dog frog
2 1 1 1 0
a and cat dog frog
1 0 0 0 1
8. Queries
Queries can be represented as vectors
in the same way as documents:
– Dog = (0,0,0,1,0)
– Frog = ( )
– Dog and frog = ( )
9. Similarity measures
There are many different ways to measure
how similar two documents are, or how
similar a document is to a query
The cosine measure is a very common
similarity measure
Using a similarity measure, a set of
documents can be compared to a query and
the most similar document returned
10. The cosine measure
For two vectors d and d’ the cosine similarity
between d and d’ is given by:
Here d X d’ is the vector product of d and d’,
calculated by multiplying corresponding
frequencies together
The cosine measure calculates the angle
between the vectors in a high-dimensional
virtual space
'
'
d
d
d
d
11. Example
Let d = (2,1,1,1,0) and d’ = (0,0,0,1,0)
– dXd’ = 2X0 + 1X0 + 1X0 + 1X1 + 0X0=1
– |d| = (22+12+12+12+02) = 7=2.646
– |d’| = (02+02+02+12+02) = 1=1
– Similarity = 1/(1 X 2.646) = 0.378
Let d = (1,0,0,0,1) and d’ = (0,0,0,1,0)
– Similarity =
12. Ranking documents
A user enters a query
The query is compared to all documents
using a similarity measure
The user is shown the documents in
decreasing order of similarity to the
query term
14. Vocabulary
Stopword lists
– Commonly occurring words are unlikely to
give useful information and may be
removed from the vocabulary to speed
processing
– Stopword lists contain frequent words to be
excluded
– Stopword lists need to be used carefully
• E.g. “to be or not to be”
15. Term weighting
Not all words are equally useful
A word is most likely to be highly
relevant to document A if it is:
– Infrequent in other documents
– Frequent in document A
The cosine measure needs to be
modified to reflect this
16. Normalised term frequency (tf)
A normalised measure of the importance of a
word to a document is its frequency, divided
by the maximum frequency of any term in the
document
This is known as the tf factor.
Document A: raw frequency vector:
(2,1,1,1,0), tf vector: ( )
This stops large documents from scoring
higher
17. Inverse document frequency (idf)
A calculation designed to make rare
words more important than common
words
The idf of word i is given by
Where N is the number of documents
and ni is the number that contain word i
i
i
n
N
idf log
18. tf-idf
The tf-idf weighting scheme is to
multiply each word in each document by
its tf factor and idf factor
Different schemes are usually used for
query vectors
Different variants of tf-idf are also used
