The purpose of this study is to analyze research trends of archives management in Korea by comparing LDA (Latent Semantic Allocation) topic modeling, which is the most famous method in text mining, and HDP (Hierarchical Dirichlet Process) topic modeling, which is developed LDA topic modeling. Firstly we collected 1,027 articles related to archives management from 1997 to 2016 in two journals related with archives management and four journals related with library and information science in Korea and performed several preprocessing steps. And then we conducted LDA and HDP topic modelings. For a more in-depth comparison analysis, we utilized LDAvis as a topic modeling visualization tool. At the results, LDA topic modeling was influenced by frequently keywords in all topics, whereas, HDP topic modeling showed specific keywords to easily identify the characteristics of each topic.

The purpose of this study is to propose AET (Augmented and Extended Topics), a novel method of synthesizing both LDA and BERTopic results, and to analyze the recently published LIS articles as an experimental approach. To achieve the purpose of this study, 55,442 abstracts from 85 LIS journals within the WoS database, which spans from January 2001 to October 2021, were analyzed. AET first constructs a WORD2VEC-based cosine similarity matrix between LDA and BERTopic results, extracts AT (Augmented Topics) by repeating the matrix reordering and segmentation procedures as long as their semantic relations are still valid, and finally determines ET (Extended Topics) by removing any LDA related residual subtopics from the matrix and ordering the rest of them by F₁ (BERTopic topic size rank, Inverse cosine similarity rank). AET, by comparing with the baseline LDA result, shows that AT has effectively concretized the original LDA topic model and ET has discovered new meaningful topics that LDA didn't. When it comes to the qualitative performance evaluation, AT performs better than LDA while ET shows similar performances except in a few cases.

In this paper, we proposes a method to improve the accuracy of predicting the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) by combining topic modeling and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks. In this paper, we use the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) technique to extract ten major topics related to interest rate increases and decreases from financial news data. The extracted topics, along with historical KOSPI index data, are input into an LSTM model to predict the KOSPI index. The proposed model has the characteristic of predicting the KOSPI index by combining the time series prediction method by inputting the historical KOSPI index into the LSTM model and the topic modeling method by inputting news data. To verify the performance of the proposed model, this paper designs four models (LSTM_K model, LSTM_KNS model, LDA_K model, LDA_KNS model) based on the types of input data for the LSTM and presents the predictive performance of each model. The comparison of prediction performance results shows that the LSTM model (LDA_K model), which uses financial news topic data and historical KOSPI index data as inputs, recorded the lowest RMSE (Root Mean Square Error), demonstrating the best predictive performance.

The purpose of this study is to understand the characteristics and trends of active senior. As the baby boom generation become the age of the elderly, they are more active than senior. These seniors are called active seniors, a new consumer group. Many countries and companies are also interested in providing relevant policies and services, but there is lack of researches on active senior trends. This study collects the 8,740 posts related to active seniors on social media from January 1st, 2018 to June 31st, 2021, and conducted keyword frequency analysis, TF-IDF analysis and LDA topic modeling. Through LDA topic modeling, topics are classified into 10 categories: lifestyle, benefits, shopping, government business, government education, health, society and economy, care industry, silver housing, leisure. The results of this study can be utilized as fundamental data to help understand the academic and industrial aspects of active senior.

Understanding the local conditions is a crucial factor in enhancing the success potential of overseas construction projects. This can be achieved through the analysis of news articles of the target market using topic modeling techniques. In this study, the authors aimed to analyze news articles using two topic modeling methods, namely Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and BERTopic, in order to determine the optimal approach for market condition analysis. To evaluate the alignment between the generated topics and the actual themes of the news documents, the research collected 6,273 BBC news articles, created ground truth data for individual news article topics, and finally compared this ground truth with the results of the topic modeling. The F1 score for LDA was 0.011, while BERTopic achieved a score of 0.244. These results indicate that BERTopic more accurately reflected the actual topics of news articles, making it more effective for understanding the overseas construction market.

The environment of academic research is continuously changing due to the increase of information, which raises the need for an effective way to analyze and organize large amounts of documents. In this paper, we propose Performance Improvement of Topic Modeling using BART(Bidirectional and Auto-Regressive Transformers) based Document Summarization. The proposed method uses BART-based document summary model to extract the core content and improve topic modeling performance using LDA(Latent Dirichlet Allocation) algorithm. We suggest an approach to improve the performance and efficiency of LDA topic modeling through document summarization and validate it through experiments. The experimental results show that the BART-based model for summarizing article data captures the important information of the original articles with F1-Scores of 0.5819, 0.4384, and 0.5038 in Rouge-1, Rouge-2, and Rouge-L performance evaluations, respectively. In addition, topic modeling using summarized documents performs about 8.08% better than topic modeling using full text in the performance comparison using the Perplexity metric. This contributes to the reduction of data throughput and improvement of efficiency in the topic modeling process.

The purpose of this study is to extract topics from experimental data using the topic modeling methods(LDA, Top2Vec, and BERTopic) and compare the characteristics and differences between these models. The experimental data consist of 55,442 papers published in 85 academic journals in the field of library and information science, which are indexed in the Web of Science(WoS). The experimental process was as follows: The first topic modeling results were obtained using the default parameters for each model, and the second topic modeling results were obtained by setting the same optimal number of topics for each model. In the first stage of topic modeling, LDA, Top2Vec, and BERTopic models generated significantly different numbers of topics(100, 350, and 550, respectively). Top2Vec and BERTopic models seemed to divide the topics approximately three to five times more finely than the LDA model. There were substantial differences among the models in terms of the average and standard deviation of documents per topic. The LDA model assigned many documents to a relatively small number of topics, while the BERTopic model showed the opposite trend. In the second stage of topic modeling, generating the same 25 topics for all models, the Top2Vec model tended to assign more documents on average per topic and showed small deviations between topics, resulting in even distribution of the 25 topics. When comparing the creation of similar topics between models, LDA and Top2Vec models generated 18 similar topics(72%) out of 25. This high percentage suggests that the Top2Vec model is more similar to the LDA model. For a more comprehensive comparison analysis, expert evaluation is necessary to determine whether the documents assigned to each topic in the topic modeling results are thematically accurate.
