Abstract (arXiv)

We propose an Exclusive Topic Modeling (ETM) for unsupervised text classification, which is able to 1) identify the field-specific keywords though less frequently appeared and 2) deliver well-structured topics with exclusive words. In particular, a weighted Lasso penalty is imposed to reduce the dominance of the frequently appearing yet less relevant words automatically, and a pairwise Kullback-Leibler divergence penalty is used to implement topics separation. Simulation studies demonstrate that the ETM detects the field-specific keywords, while LDA fails. When applying to the benchmark NIPS dataset, the topic coherence score on average improves by 22% and 10% for the model with weighted Lasso penalty and pairwise Kullback-Leibler divergence penalty, respectively.
