Inductive Topic Variational Graph Auto-Encoder for Text Classification (2021.naacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for text classification do not assume explicit latent semantic structure of documents, making them less effective and difficult to interpret. |
| Approach: | They propose a model that integrates a topic model into variational graph-auto-encoder to capture hidden semantic information between documents and words. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing models on supervised and semi-supervised text classification and unsupervised representation learning. |
