Clustering And Topic Modeling In NLP: What Happens If K-means And LDA Have A Competition?
One day, K-means and LDA, two popular algorithms in natural language processing (NLP), decided to have a friendly competition to see which one was better at clustering and topic modeling. K-means, known for its simplicity and speed, boasted that it could group any collection of documents in a flash. LDA, on the other hand, was confident in its ability to uncover the latent topics hidden within the data using probabilistic generative modeling.
