Topic Modeling - Goodness of Fit

This workflow demonstrates how to compute the Chi-Square Statistics to address the goodness of fit in topic modeling. It tests the multinomial assumptions behind the LDA model and examines whether the observed and estimated word vectors are statistically indistinguishable.


In this workflow, the objective function we aim to optimize is the number of topics to extract.
