LDAtools
========

R package for fitting topic models.

Update: We changed the name of this repo from 'LDAviz' to 'LDAtools' on 5/5/2014. It will remain a repo with tools for preprocessing raw text and fitting LDA topic models in R (with C code as the back-end to run the collapsed Gibbs sampler). Two notes:

* For visualizing the output of a topic model, please check out our repo <a href='https://github.com/cpsievert/LDAvis' target='_blank'>LDAvis</a>, hosted by Carson Sievert. All future work on visualizing topic models will be done in this repo.

* For fitting topic models, there are other software packages available, including MALLET and the R packages 'topicmodels' and 'lda', that are much more popular and better-tested (for speed and accuracy) than this package. This package was developed, more or less, (1) for practice building an R package and (2) to learn about LDA, rather than to become a widely-used package for others. So thanks for checking this out, but we'd recommend MALLET or other existing R packages for fitting topic models, and <a href='https://github.com/cpsievert/LDAvis' target='_blank'>LDAvis</a> for visualizing topic models.
