Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use tuned extension parameters (tGDM) instead of default extension | GDM · Simulation (varying N_m, M, eta) | minimum-matching Euclidean distance and perplexity | Helped |
| Replace RecoverKL with GDM as topic estimator | NIPS corpus · NIPS K=5 to 20 | perplexity: GDM 763-1269 vs RecoverKL 1378-1586 | Helped |
| Use weighted k-means with document lengths as weights (weighted GDM vs unweighted) (ablation) | GDM · Documents of varying size (50 to 1500) | perplexity and matching distance | Helped |
| Use tuned extension parameters with weighted GDM relative to default | GDM · Simulation with tuning of extension parameters for K=4 example | qualitative fit to Gibbs sampling | No clear effect |
| Use document-length-independent GDM in short documents (N_m=50) vs long | GDM · Simulation N_m=50, M up to 15000 | performance | No clear effect |
| Use anchor words inserted manually for RecoverKL | RecoverKL · Simulation with eta<=0.3 vs eta>=0.5, N_m=50 | topic estimation accuracy | Mixed |
| Use nGDM (nonparametric, penalized weighted k-means) vs KL DP-means | nGDM · Simulation varying alpha 0.01 to 2 | perplexity | Mixed |
