I've been working with LDA for about 6 weeks full time and have read a lot of of tutorials and seen youtube videos on it.
I have a working Python app that uses Gensim. I'm not getting anywhere near the results I hoped for.
I suspect that I'm not using: gensim.models.ldamodel.LdaModel correctly.
How can I programmatically determine what settings would produce the best results (most accurate word groupings)?
How can I get somewhat reliable groupings out of the text?
How can I programmatically determine each actual 'topic'?
I'm aware of Wordnet Synset hypernyms and thought if I can get the word groupings per topic more accurate, maybe I can get common hypernyms from them and use those.
I'm stumped. I don't know how to extract valid topics or even word groupings from LDA.
