For example, topic modeling can be used to identify recurring themes in news articles, discover research trends in scientific publications, or analyze public sentiment across social media posts. In this workshop, you will get a high-level overview of different existing techniques used for topic modeling which focuses on modern AI-driven approaches. You will also have ample time to work through step-by-step hands-on exercises to learn how to leverage AI-based topic modeling analysis techniques using real data through Python.
