GraphBTM

This repository contains the code for ourl EMNLP 2018 paper "GraphBTM: Graph Enhanced Autoencoded Variational Inference for Biterm Topic Model", you can find here.

Some code are based on the pytorch implementation of AVITM: https://github.com/hyqneuron/pytorch-avitm The Topic Coherence Evaluation is from: https://github.com/jhlau/topic_interpretability Thanks for sharing code!

Requirements

• python 3.6
• pytorch 0.4
• numpy
• python 2.7 for topic coherence evaluation

How to use

$ python pytorch_run.py --start

It may take some time to generate the biterms (it's too large to upload the pickle, so I upload the original files). It will generate the top 10 words in each topic after each epoch in 'topic_interpretability/data/topics_20news.txt', and you can use the code in the topic_interpretability folder:

$ ./run-oc.sh
