The state-of-the-art platform for topic modeling.
What is BigARTM?
BigARTM is a powerful tool for topic modeling based on a novel technique called Additive Regularization of Topic Models. This technique effectively builds multi-objective models by adding the weighted sums of regularizers to the optimization criterion. BigARTM is known to combine well very different objectives, including sparsing, smoothing, topics decorrelation and many others. Such combination of regularizers significantly improves several quality measures at once almost without any loss of the perplexity.

Installation
Installing with pip (Linux only)
We have a PyPi release for Linux:
$ pip install bigartm
or
$ pip install bigartm10
Installing on Windows
We suggest using pre-build binaries.
It is also possible to compile C++ code on Windows you want the latest development version.
Installing on Linux / MacOS
Download binary release or build from source using cmake:
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make install
See here for detailed instructions.
How to Use
Command-line interface
Check out documentation for bigartm.
Examples:
- Basic model (20 topics, outputed to CSV-file, inferred in 10 passes)
bigartm.exe -d docword.kos.txt -v vocab.kos.txt --write-model-readable model.txt
--passes 10 --batch-size 50 --topics 20
- Basic model with less tokens (filtered extreme values based on token's frequency)
bigartm.exe -d docword.kos.txt -v vocab.kos.txt --dictionary-max-df 50% --dictionary-min-df 2
--passes 10 --batch-size 50 --topics 20 --write-model-readable model.txt
- Simple regularized model (increase sparsity up to 60-70%)
bigartm.exe -d docword.kos.txt -v vocab.kos.txt --dictionary-max-df 50% --dictionary-min-df 2
--passes 10 --batch-size 50 --topics 20 --write-model-readable model.txt
--regularizer "0.05 SparsePhi" "0.05 SparseTheta"
- More advanced regularize model, with 10 sparse objective topics, and 2 smooth background topics
bigartm.exe -d docword.kos.txt -v vocab.kos.txt --dictionary-max-df 50% --dictionary-min-df 2
--passes 10 --batch-size 50 --topics obj:10;background:2 --write-model-readable model.txt
--regularizer "0.05 SparsePhi #obj"
--regularizer "0.05 SparseTheta #obj"
--regularizer "0.25 SmoothPhi #background"
--regularizer "0.25 SmoothTheta #background"
Interactive Python interface
BigARTM supports full-featured and clear Python API (see Installation to configure Python API for your OS).
Example:
import artm
# Prepare data
# Case 1: data in CountVectorizer format
from sklearn.feature_extraction.text import CountVectorizer
from sklearn.datasets import fetch_20newsgroups
from numpy import array
cv = CountVectorizer(max_features=1000, stop_words='english')
n_wd = array(cv.fit_transform(fetch_20newsgroups().data).todense()).T
vocabulary = cv.get_feature_names()
bv = artm.BatchVectorizer(data_format='bow_n_wd',
n_wd=n_wd,
vocabulary=vocabulary)
# Case 2: data in UCI format (https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Bag+of+Words)
bv = artm.BatchVectorizer(data_format='bow_uci',
collection_name='kos',
target_folder='kos_batches')
# Learn simple LDA model (or you can use advanced artm.ARTM)
model = artm.LDA(num_topics=15, dictionary=bv.dictionary)
model.fit_offline(bv, num_collection_passes=20)
# Print results
model.get_top_tokens()
Refer to tutorials for details on how to start using BigARTM from Python, user's guide can provide information about more advanced features and cases.
