On LDA: LDA and Healthcare

What is LDA topic modeling?

"Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is an example of topic model and is used to classify text in a document to a particular topic"

What is topic modeling used for?

"In machine learning and natural language processing, a topic model is a type of statistical model for discovering the abstract "topics" that occur in a collection of documents. Topic modeling is a frequently used text-mining tool for discovery of hidden semantic structures in a text body."

Is LDA supervised or unsupervised?

"Original LDA is unsupervised learning algorithm, while Labeled-LDA and Multi-Grain LDA, another topic model for classification and sentiment analysis, are supervised algorithm."
