Rebecca Chenoweth- Topic Modeling Test Page

Page history last edited by r_chenoweth@... 10 years, 6 months ago

I've been trying to work with various topic modeling tools for an embarrassingly long amount of time today, and I'm not sure if I've done anything remotely resembling a topic model, but here is a screen cap of my results:

 

I downloaded the originally suggested topic modeling tool from David Mimno, replacing the content of the given .txt file with the content of my Interpretation of Dreams .txt file, trying to run as many iterations as my old computer could handle.  The next few (interesting) topics were as follows:

 

7) dream may did yet see such content too before matter

8) her she had into out woman herself some then think

9) then being merely without person find dreamed established some against

10) dream interpretation very subject even however see given idea upon

11) waking state things place already images some three mind thoughts

12) dream patient still between another myself patients becomes while then

13) dream interpretation another here further made man meaning course found

 

I see some topics that center around gender/gendered pronouns (topics 2 and 8), some interesting correlation between "myself" and "patients" (topic 12), and at least one topic that reads like a Wallace Stevens poem (topic 11 and "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird," specifically).  These gender-related topics might be interesting in terms of Freud's treatment of male vs female patients and illnesses; and the "myself" and "patients" link might indicate how much Freud as analyst appears in the work (though "myself" could come from first-person patient narratives).  My list of topics includes some that feature stray French words, some associated with "his" or "her," and some more that look like lines of modern poetry. 

 

14) les que des maury reve qui est dans plus example

15) waking dream psychic life state may material ideas consciousness whether

16) his after asleep falling while well himself almost into account

17) dreams analysis content any case dream-interpretation course method how such

18) had dream were day him during himself name before his

19) dream dreams may source perhaps believe often always might yet

20) dreams does how such origin far find present example connection

21) stimuli dreams sleep sensory during become stimulus nature organic physical

22) dream wish such fulfilment general wishes persons any condition hysterical

23) had her she once whom friend wish irma patient asked

24) dream may into psychic thus life mind dreaming activity ideas

25) day since point something without indeed previous experience fact book
