| A Topic Modeling Approach and its Integration into the Random Walk Framework for Academic Search (2009) | |||||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||||
| In this paper, we propose a unified topic modeling approach and its integration into the random walk framework for academic search. Specifically, we present a topic model for simultaneously modeling papers, authors, and publication venues. We combine the proposed topic model into the random walk framework. Experimental results show that our proposed approach for academic search significantly outperforms the baseline methods of using BM25 and language model, and those of using the existing topic models (including pLSI, LDA, and the AT model). 1 | |||||||||||||||
