topic-detection

A simple topic detection module, based on Wordnet Domains data

API

new TopicDetection()

A basic constructor

detector.topics(text)

Returns a list of topics with normalized scores. There isn't a reliable order as JavaScript doesn't allow that, so you'll need to sort by score yourself to get the top scored topic.

var TopicDetection = require('topic-detection');
var detector = new TopicDetection();
var scores = detector.topics(myText);
