Join us for a 成人VR视频 School of Information Studies (SIS) Seminar Series talk on semantic visualization models for data mining with guest speaker Dr. Hady Lauw, Assistant Professor of Information Systems at Singapore Management University.

ABSTRACT

Visualization of high-dimensional data such as text documents is widely applicable. Classical approaches to visualization directly reduce a document's high-dimensional representation into visualizable two or three dimensions, using techniques such as multidimensional scaling. While such approaches may preserve the relationship among the data points, they are somewhat limited in terms of explanatory power. The current way to model semantics in text documents is through topic modelling, a class of probabilistic generative models for word occurrences in documents. In this talk, we will explore semantic visualization models, which are recent approaches for visualization that consider an intermediate representation in topic space between the input word space and the output visualization space. This has the useful effect of producing both a topic model and a visualization model simultaneously. The reduced dimensionalities are shown to still be effective in some data mining tasks, such as nearest neighbor classification.
