| Summary: | The aim of topic detection is to automatically identify the events and hot topics in social networks and continuously track known topics. Applying the traditional methods such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation and Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis is difficult given the high dimensionality of massive event texts and the short-text sparsity problems of social networks. The problem also exists of unclear topics caused by the sparse distribution of topics. To solve the above challenge, we propose a novel word embedding topic model by combining the topic model and the continuous bag-of-words mode (Cbow) method in word embedding method, named Cbow Topic Model (CTM), for topic detection and summary in social networks. We conduct similar word clustering of the target social network text dataset by introducing the classic Cbow word vectorization method, which can effectively learn the internal relationship between words and reduce the dimensionality of the input texts. We employ the topic model-to-model short text for effectively weakening the sparsity problem of social network texts. To detect and summarize the topic, we propose a topic detection method by leveraging similarity computing for social networks. We collected a Sina microblog dataset to conduct various experiments. The experimental results demonstrate that the CTM method is superior to the existing topic model method.
