Hierarchical Topic Presence Models [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Topic models analyze text from a set of documents. Documents are modeled as a mixture of topics, with topics defined as probability distributions on words. Inferences of interest include the most probable topics and characterization of a topic by inspecting the topic's highest probability words.

A Self-Assessing Compilation Based Search Approach for Analytical Research and Data Retrieval [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 While meta-analytic research is performed, it becomes time-consuming to filter through the sheer amount of sources made available by individual databases and search engines and therefore degrades the specificity of source analysis. This study sought to predict the feasibility of a research-oriented searching algorithm across all topics and a search ...

Local and Global Topics in Text Modeling of Web Pages Nested in Web Sites [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Topic models are popular models for analyzing a collection of text documents. The models assert that documents are distributions over latent topics and latent topics are distributions over words. A nested document collection is where documents are nested inside a higher order structure such as stories in a book, articles in a journal, or web pages in a

Re-expressing coefficients from regression models for inclusion in a meta-analysis
BMC Medical Research MethodologyMeta-analysis poses a challenge when original study results have been expressed in a non-uniform manner, such as when regression results from some original studies were based on a log-transformed key independent variable while in others no transformation
