Current Development
Starting in 2014, we have split Termite into two components:
- Termite Data Server for processing the output of topic models and providing the content as a web service
- Termite Visualizations for visualizing topic model outputs in a web browser
Our goals are to:
- support multiple topic modeling tools
- reduce the cost of developing new visualizations through shared infrastructure
- allow multiple visualizations to interact with any number of topic modeling software and with other visualizations
Please see the respective repositories for the latest software and additional information.
Termite
Termite is a visualization tool for inspecting the output of statistical topic models based on the techniques described in the following publication. For more details about this repository, see the file "README.old".
