BigML - Machine learning made easy

Hi <<Full Name>>,

BigML's Fall 2016 Release is here! Join us on Tuesday, November 29, at 10:00 AM PST (Portland, Oregon / GMT -08:00) / 7:00 PM CET (Valencia, Spain. GMT +01:00) for a FREE live webinar to get a first look at the latest version of BigML! We'll be focusing on Topic Models, the latest resource that helps you find thematically related terms in your unstructured text data.
 

Topic Models - Topic Map

The BigML Team has been working hard to implement the underlying Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) technique into the BigML Dashboard and API. With Topic Models you can use your identified topics as final output for information retrieval tasks, collaborative filtering, or for assessing document similarity, among other use cases. You can also use those topics as input features to train other models, such as Classification or Regression models, Cluster Analysis, Anomaly Detection, or Association Discovery. 
 

Topic Models - Term Chart
Topic Models come with two visualizations to better analyze the topics discovered in your text data: a Topic Map and a Term Chart. The Topic Map presents a map view for you to both see the topic importances at a glance and the relationship between them, whereas the Term Chart displays the topics and their terms in a bar chart view to give you a quick overview of the terms composing the topics as well as their importances. While BigML's Topic Models only use the text fields in your dataset, they can analyze any type of text in seven different languages: English, Spanish, Catalan, French, Portuguese, German and Dutch.
 
Topic Models - Predictions
BigML offers Topic Distributions to make predictions for a given single instance, and Batch Topic Distributions to predict several instances simultaneously. In the related prediction, BigML provides a set of probabilities for each instance (one probability per topic), which indicates the relevance of a certain topic for that instance.
