R LDA主题建模:结果主题包含非常相似的单词

Question

全部：

我是R主题建模的初学者，这一切都始于三周前。所以我的问题是我可以成功地将我的数据处理成语料库、文档术语矩阵和LDA函数。我有推特作为我的输入，大约有46万条推特。但我对结果并不满意，所有话题的措辞都非常相似。

packages <- c('tm','topicmodels','SnowballC','RWeka','rJava')
if (length(setdiff(packages, rownames(installed.packages()))) > 0) {
install.packages(setdiff(packages, rownames(installed.packages())))  
}
options( java.parameters = "-Xmx4g" )
library(tm)
library(topicmodels)
library(SnowballC)
library(RWeka)
print("Please select the input file");
flush.console();
ifilename <- file.choose();
raw_data=scan(ifilename,'string',sep="n",skip=1);
tweet_data=raw_data;
rm(raw_data);
tweet_data = gsub("(RT|via)((?:\b\W*@\w+)+)","",tweet_data)
tweet_data = gsub("http[^[:blank:]]+", "", tweet_data)
tweet_data = gsub("@\w+", "", tweet_data)
tweet_data = gsub("[ t]{2,}", "", tweet_data)
tweet_data = gsub("^\s+|\s+$", "", tweet_data)
tweet_data = gsub('\d+', '', tweet_data)
tweet_data = gsub("[[:punct:]]", " ", tweet_data)
max_size=5000;
data_size=length(tweet_data);
itinerary=ceiling(data_size[1]/max_size);
if (itinerary==1){pre_data=tweet_data}else {pre_data=tweet_data[1:max_size]}
corp <- Corpus(VectorSource(pre_data));
corp<-tm_map(corp,tolower);
corp<-tm_map(corp,removePunctuation);
extend_stop_word=c('description:','null','text:','description','url','text','aca',
                   'obama','romney','ryan','mitt','conservative','liberal');
corp<-tm_map(corp,removeNumbers);
gc();
IteratedLovinsStemmer(corp, control = NULL)
gc();
corp<-tm_map(corp,removeWords,c(stopwords('english'),extend_stop_word));
gc();
corp <- tm_map(corp, PlainTextDocument)
gc();
dtm.control = list(tolower= F,removePunctuation=F,removeNumbers= F,
                   stemming= F, minWordLength = 3,weighting= weightTf,stopwords=F)
dtm = DocumentTermMatrix(corp, control=dtm.control)
gc();
#dtm = removeSparseTerms(dtm,0.99)
dtm = dtm[rowSums(as.matrix(dtm))>0,]
gc();
best.model <- lapply(seq(2,50, by=2), function(k){LDA(dtm[1:10,], k)})
gc();
best.model.logLik <- as.data.frame(as.matrix(lapply(best.model, logLik)))
best.model.logLik.df <- data.frame(topics=c(seq(2,50, by=2)), LL=as.numeric(as.matrix(best.model.logLik)))
k=best.model.logLik.df[which.max(best.model.logLik.df$LL),1];
cat("Best topic number is k=",k);
flush.console();
gc();
lda.model = LDA(dtm, k,method='VEM')
gc();
write.csv(terms(lda.model,50), file = "terms.csv");
lda_topics=topics(lda.model,1);

以下是我得到的结果：

> terms(lda.model,10)
      Topic 1     Topic 2    Topic 3    Topic 4    Topic 5   
 [1,] "taxes"     "medicare" "tax"      "tax"      "jobs"

[10,] "obamacare" "want"      "now"      "gop"      
      Topic 10    Topic 11   Topic 12  
 [1,] "tax"       "gop"      "gop"

 [6,] "plan"      "will"     "tcot"

 [9,] "cuts"      "paul"     "class"   
[10,] "paul"      "budget"   "just" 

正如你所看到的，"税收"医疗保险"这些词贯穿了所有的话题。我注意到，当我玩dtm = removeSparseTerms(dtm,0.99)时，结果可能会有一些变化。下面是我的样本输入数据

> tweet_data[1:10]
 [1] " While  Romney friends get richer  MT  Romney Ryan Economic Plans Would Increase Unemployment Deepen Recession"

[10] "  Replacing Gen Dempsey is cruicial to US security  Dempsey  disappointed  by anti Obama campaign by ex military members  h    "

请帮忙！！谢谢

减少案例中的主题数量。这将增强主题模型的集群能力。现在，您正在将现有模型与另一个模型重叠。由于主题索引随迭代而变化，因此也很难贯彻执行结果/进行比较。
