The objective of this study is to identify the research trend in the field of indoor environment in Korea. We collected 419 papers published in the Journal of the Korean Society for indoor environment between 2004 and 2018, and attempted to produce datasets using a topic modeling technique, Latent Dirichlet Allocation(LDA). The result of topic modeling showed that 8 topics ("VOCs investigation", "Subway environment", "Building thermal environment", "School health", "Building particulate matter", "Asbestos risk", "Radon risk", "Air cleaner and treatment") could be extracted using Gibbs sampling method. In terms of topic trends, investigation of volatile organic compounds, subway environment, school health, and building particulate matter showed a decreasing tendency, while the building thermal environment, asbestos risk, radon risk, air cleaners, and air treatment showed an increasing tendency. The results of this topic modeling could help us to understand current trends related indoor environment, and provide valuable information in developing future research and policy frameworks.

In this study, tweets about the 2019 Koreas-US DMZ Summit were collected along with a time sequence and analyzed by a sequential topic modeling method, Dynamic Topic Modeling(DTM). In microblogging services such as Twitter, unstructured data that mixes news and an opinion about a single event occurs at the same time on a large scale, and information and reactions are produced in the same message format. Therefore, to grasp a topic trend, the contextual meaning can be found only by performing pattern analysis reflecting the characteristics of sequential data. As a result of calculating the DTM after obtaining the topic coherence score and evaluating the Latent Dirichlet Allocation(LDA), 30 topics related to news reports and opinions were derived, and the probability of occurrence of each topic and keywords were dynamically evolving. In conclusion, the study found that DTM is a suitable model for analyzing the trend of integrated topics in a specific event over time.

Many people use social network services as to communicate, to share an information and to build social relationships between others on the Internet. Twitter is such a representative service, where millions of tweets are posted a day and a huge amount of data collection has been being accumulated. Social mining that extracts the meaningful information from the massive data has been intensively studied. Typically, Twitter easily can deliver and retweet the contents using the following-follower relationships. Topic modeling in tweet data is a good tool for issue tracking in social media. To overcome the restrictions of short contents in tweets, we introduce a notion of reply graph which is constructed as a graph structure of which nodes correspond to users and of which edges correspond to existence of reply and retweet messages between the users. The LDA topic model, which is a typical method of topic modeling, is ineffective for short textual data. This paper introduces a topic modeling method that uses reply graph to reduce the number of short documents and to improve the quality of mining results. The proposed model uses the LDA model as the topic modeling framework for tweet issue tracking. Some experimental results of the proposed method are presented for a collection of Twitter data of 7 days.

Analysis of research trends in specific subject areas is performed by examining related topics and subject changes by using topic modeling techniques through keyword extraction for most of the literature information (paper, patents, etc.). Unlike existing research methods, this paper extracts topics related to the research topic using the LDA topic modeling technique for the project information of national R&D projects provided by the National Science and Technology Knowledge Information Service (NTIS) in the field of artificial intelligence. By analyzing these topics, this study aims to analyze research topics and investment directions for national R&D projects. NTIS provides a vast amount of national R&D information, from information on tasks carried out through national R&D projects to research results (thesis, patents, etc.) generated through research. In this paper, the search results were confirmed by performing artificial intelligence keywords and related classification searches in NTIS integrated search, and basic data was constructed by downloading the latest three-year project information. Using the LDA topic modeling library provided by Python, related topics and keywords were extracted and analyzed for basic data (research goals, research content, expected effects, keywords, etc.) to derive insights on the direction of research investment.

As research has been published to predict future data using regression analysis or artificial intelligence as a method of analyzing economic indicators. In this study, we designed a system that predicts prospective futures prices using artificial intelligence that utilizes topic probability data obtained from past news articles using topic modeling. Topic probability distribution data for each news article were obtained using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) method that can extract the topic of a document from past news articles via unsupervised learning. Further, the topic probability distribution data were used as the input for a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network, a derivative of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) in artificial intelligence, in order to predict prospective futures prices. The method proposed in this study was able to predict the trend of futures prices. Later, this method will also be able to predict the trend of prices for derivative products like options. However, because statistical errors occurred for certain data; further research is required to improve accuracy.

The purpose of this study is to explore application of topic modeling for topic analysis of book report. Topic modeling can be understood as one method of topic analysis. This analysis was conducted with texts in 23 book reports using LDA function of the "topicmodels" package provided by R. According to the result of topic modeling, 16 topics were extracted. The topic network was constructed by the relation between the topics and keywords, and the book report network was constructed by the relation between book report cases and topics. Next, Centrality analysis was conducted targeting the topic network and book report network. The result of this study is following these. First, 16 topics are shown as network which has one component. In other words, 16 topics are interrelated. Second, book report was divided into 2 groups, book reports with high centrality and book reports with low centrality. The former group has similarities with others, the latter group has differences with others in aspect of the topics of book reports. The result of topic modeling is useful to identify book reports' topics combining with network analysis.

With the rapid increase of user generated data on digital platforms, the task of categorizing and classifying theses huge data has become difficult. Topic modeling is an unsupervised machine learning technique that can be used to get a summary from a large collection of documents. Topic modeling has been widely used in English content, yet the application of topic modeling in Arabic language is limited. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to provide a systematic review of the application of topic modeling algorithms in Arabic content. Using a well-known and trusted databases including ScienceDirect, IEEE Xplore, Springer Link, and Google Scholar. Considering the publication date from 2012 to 2022, we got 60 papers. After refining the papers based on predefined criteria, we resulted in 32 papers. Our result show that unfortunately the application of topic modeling techniques in Arabic content is limited.

Topics calculated using LDA topic modeling have to be labeled separately. When labeling a topic, we look at the words that represent the topic, and label the topic. Therefore, it is important to first make a good set of words that represent the topic. This paper proposes a method of calculating a set of words representing a topic using TextRank, which extracts the keywords of a document. The proposed method uses Relevance to select words related to the topic with discrimination. It extracts topic keywords using the TextRank algorithm and connects keywords with a high frequency of simultaneous occurrence to express the topic with a higher coverage.

This study explored the agenda of conservative and liberal media in reporting COVID-19, and observed the effects of each media's partisan agenda-setting on the public with the same political orientation. To this end, researchers collected 5,286 articles on COVID-19 from five newspapers, and analyzed the survey data of 1,067 respondents. Next, the researchers extracted main agenda using LDA topic modeling and analyzed the correlation between newspapers' agenda and survey respondents' agenda. As results, 15 topics such as infection, vaccine, and economic crisis appeared as the media agenda, and the difference in major agenda between conservative and liberal media was found. On the other hand, the conservative media exerted an agenda-setting influence not only on the conservatives but also on the liberals, but the liberal media did not have a significant influence on the liberals. This study contributes to the methodological expansion of agenda-setting research by introducing a new way to confirm the effectiveness of agenda-setting by combining topic modeling and survey.
