Topic modeling is your turf too.
Contextual topic models with representations from transformers.

Features

  • Implementations of transformer-based topic models:
    • Semantic Signal Separation - S³ 🧭
    • KeyNMF 🔑
    • GMM 💎
    • Clustering Topic Models: BERTopic and Top2Vec
    • Autoencoding Topic Models: CombinedTM and ZeroShotTM
    • FASTopic
  • Dynamic, Online and Hierarchical Topic Modeling
  • Streamlined scikit-learn compatible API 🛠️
  • Easy topic interpretation 🔍
  • Automated topic naming with LLMs
  • Visualization with topicwizard 🖌️

This package is still work in progress and scientific papers on some of the novel methods are currently undergoing peer-review. If you use this package and you encounter any problem, let us know by opening relevant issues.

New in version 0.8.0

Automated Topic Naming

Turftopic now allows you to automatically assign human readable names to topics using LLMs or n-gram retrieval!

from turftopic import KeyNMF
from turftopic.namers import OpenAITopicNamer

model = KeyNMF(10).fit(corpus)

namer = OpenAITopicNamer("gpt-4o-mini")
model.rename_topics(namer)
model.print_topics()
Topic ID Topic Name Highest Ranking
0 Operating Systems and Software windows, dos, os, ms, microsoft, unix, nt, memory, program, apps
1 Atheism and Belief Systems atheism, atheist, atheists, belief, religion, religious, theists, beliefs, believe, faith
2 Computer Architecture and Performance motherboard, ram, memory, cpu, bios, isa, speed, 486, bus, performance
3 Storage Technologies disk, drive, scsi, drives, disks, floppy, ide, dos, controller, boot
...

Open in Colab

Installation

Turftopic can be installed from PyPI.

pip install turftopic

If you intend to use CTMs, make sure to install the package with Pyro as an optional dependency.

pip install turftopic[pyro-ppl]

Fitting a Model

Turftopic's models follow the scikit-learn API conventions, and as such they are quite easy to use if you are familiar with scikit-learn workflows.

Here's an example of how you use KeyNMF, one of our models on the 20Newsgroups dataset from scikit-learn.

from sklearn.datasets import fetch_20newsgroups

newsgroups = fetch_20newsgroups(
    subset="all",
    remove=("headers", "footers", "quotes"),
)
corpus = newsgroups.data

Turftopic also comes with interpretation tools that make it easy to display and understand your results.

from turftopic import KeyNMF

model = KeyNMF(20).fit(corpus)

Interpreting Models

Turftopic comes with a number of pretty printing utilities for interpreting the models.

To see the highest the most important words for each topic, use the print_topics() method.

model.print_topics()
Topic ID Top 10 Words
0 armenians, armenian, armenia, turks, turkish, genocide, azerbaijan, soviet, turkey, azerbaijani
1 sale, price, shipping, offer, sell, prices, interested, 00, games, selling
2 christians, christian, bible, christianity, church, god, scripture, faith, jesus, sin
3 encryption, chip, clipper, nsa, security, secure, privacy, encrypted, crypto, cryptography
....

Visualization

Turftopic does not come with built-in visualization utilities, topicwizard, an interactive topic model visualization library, is compatible with all models from Turftopic.

pip install topic-wizard

By far the easiest way to visualize your models for interpretation is to launch the topicwizard web app.

import topicwizard

topicwizard.visualize(corpus, model=model)

Screenshot of the topicwizard Web Application

Alternatively you can use the Figures API in topicwizard for individual HTML figures.
