Varying Inputs and Topic Representations Topic Modeling Metrics and Domain Expert Evaluation Topic Modeling Metrics Applied to Experiments Further Investigation Progress
2 Varying Inputs and Topic Representations
3 Varying Inputs and Topic Representations for Cluster Formation
- 3 inputs x 4 cluster sizes x 2 representations = 28 experiments run 3. Topic Representation (5)
- PLUS 3 custom representations computed for all 28 experiments TF-IDF on input text in each topic cluster:
- Stopwords (custom list of 95 words/phrases) removed from each of the 5 representations (top 100 topic terms/phrases) as a post-processing step BERTopic MMR (diversity = 0.6)
- 2. Topic Modeling Parameters (4) BERTopic MMR + POS MMR (diversity = 0.6) + POS (NOUN, PROPN, ADJ-NOUN, ADJ-PROPN)
MMR (diversity = 0.6);
MMR (diversity = 0.6) + POS (NOUN, TF-IDF, Counts: String matching on full item-PROPN, ADJ-NOUN, ADJ-PROPN) intros in each topic cluster:
- 1. Topic Modeling Input (3) Vocabulary 1411 abbreviations + full forms + failure n-grams range of 1-3 modes Item Introduction min cluster size 10, 20, 40, 60 Key Phrases (66,325 words/phrases extracted from Item Item Introduction Summary Introductions using KeyphraseVectorizer +
(Pegasus_cnn_dailymail model) 15 neighbors, 5 components Guided KeyBERT with vocab of 1411 abbreviations, full forms and failure modes)
Item Introduction Key Phrases all-MiniLM-L6-v2 (KeyphraseVectorizer + Guided KeyBERT with Vocabulary + Key Phrases custom vocab of 1411 abbreviations, full forms and (67,402) failure modes)
4 Topic Modeling Metrics and Domain Expert Evaluation
5 Testing the accuracy of the coherence metric
As mentioned previously, metrics will never replace subject matter experts We had Guillermo classify 60 topics (20 from three different models) as good, intermediate, or bad in coherence quality We then compared the results from our coherence metric to Guillermos results and got the following results Guillermos Results
Guillermos results suggest that mmr-pos > no-rep > mmr Our results also suggest that mmr-pos > no-rep > mmr We will keep Guillermos results as a baseline whenever we test new coherence metric schemes
6 A Larger Corpus
The previous slide showed promising results, however that dataset only contained uni-grams The next tests are going to involve bi-grams and tri -grams. To give us the best results, we need a larger corpus.
Our new corpus is made from 269 NRC technical report (NUREGs) and has 329000 unique words compared to our previous corpus with only 27000 unique words There are still many missing words in our reference corpus, so we will continue to improve upon that Before we used the larger corpus on new experiments, we re-ran the experiment from two weeks ago and made sure results were still consistent.

7 Topic Modeling Metrics Applied to Experiments
8 Experiment 1
Stuti has been performing many different experiments using different representations, cluster sizes, and inputs The results presented below are the coherence scores from BERTopic MMR models using
- Item introduction as input (Blue)
- Key-Phrase from Item Introduction as Input (orange)
- Summary from Item Introduction as input (green)
Using the Item Introduction as input seems to create the most cohesive results We plotted these results using the top 10 - 70 words and from 30 - 70 words this trend held
- The plot on the left uses the top 50 words
9 Experiment 2
The results with Stutis custom representations have yielded the most positive feedback from the NRC Below we have plotted results using Vocab representation, Key-Phrases Representation, and Vocab + key -
phrases representation
Again, we see the item-introduction as the most coherent input The Key-Phrases representation appears to show the best results (Event better than the mmr representation from the previous slide)
10 Custom vs Default Representation Comparison
Key-Phrases Representation MMR Representation (BERTopic Default)
11 Conclusion/Next Steps
All the presented results suggest that the Item Introduction is the best input. However, it is possible that our reference corpus is biasing that result, so we will need to be careful with the analysis We also want to continue to grow our reference corpus
- Use more of the NUREGs to create an even more expansive corpus
- Add files from Licensee Event Reports to the corpus as well Have Guillermo perform his own quality analysis on a subset of the previous experiments Perform diversity metric calculations on the previous experiments
12 Takeaways and Next Steps
Domain expert feedback on experiments varying input and topic representations, compare with metrics Enlarging reference corpus to include more documents that discuss the kinds of safety issues and their context that we are trying to discover from inspection findings text
In progress: Eliminating stochasticity
- Computing MMR and MMR+POS representations on the same BERTopic model so all 5 topic representations (including 3 custom) can be compared on the same topic clusters from the same run
- Setting random state for UMAP dimensionality reduction if performance is not heavily impacted In Progress: Outlier Reduction
- 4 different outlier reduction techniques available from BERTopic
- Compute metrics on topics before and after various outlier reduction techniques
TBD: Topic model and its steps have not been extensively tuned yet, which can affect results
- Embedding model (finetuned on domain data)
- Embedding reduction and clustering tuned together
13 Further Investigation
14 Further Investigation
Based on our research and analysis in the three phases of this project, we have identified 5 topics that warrant further investi gation and prototyping. Each of these initiatives could be pursued independently and would be similar in size to the current project. Additional details on selected topics will be prov ided.
