DistributedLDAModel

class pyspark.ml.clustering.DistributedLDAModel(java_model=None)[source]

Distributed model fitted by LDA. This type of model is currently only produced by Expectation-Maximization (EM).

This model stores the inferred topics, the full training dataset, and the topic distribution for each training document.

New in version 2.0.0.

Methods

clear(param)

Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.

copy([extra])

Creates a copy of this instance with the same uid and some extra params.

describeTopics([maxTermsPerTopic])

Return the topics described by their top-weighted terms.

estimatedDocConcentration()

Value for LDA.docConcentration estimated from data.

explainParam(param)

Explains a single param and returns its name, doc, and optional default value and user-supplied value in a string.

explainParams()

Methods Documentation

clear(param)

Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.

copy(extra=None)

Creates a copy of this instance with the same uid and some extra params. This implementation first calls Params.copy and then make a copy of the companion Java pipeline component with extra params. So both the Python wrapper and the Java pipeline component get copied.

Parameters:
extradict, optional

Extra parameters to copy to the new instance

Returns:
JavaParams

Copy of this instance

describeTopics(maxTermsPerTopic=10)

Return the topics described by their top-weighted terms.

New in version 2.0.0.

estimatedDocConcentration()

Value for LDA.docConcentration estimated from data. If Online LDA was used and LDA.optimizeDocConcentration was set to false, then this returns the fixed (given) value for the LDA.docConcentration parameter.

New in version 2.0.0.

explainParam(param)

Explains a single param and returns its name, doc, and optional default value and user-supplied value in a string.

explainParams()

Returns the documentation of all params with their optionally default values and user-supplied values.

extractParamMap(extra=None)

Extracts the embedded default param values and user-supplied values, and then merges them with extra values from input into a flat param map, where the latter value is used if there exist conflicts, i.e., with ordering: default param values < user-supplied values < extra.

Parameters:
extradict, optional

extra param values

Returns:
dict

merged param map

getCheckpointFiles()[source]

If using checkpointing and LDA.keepLastCheckpoint is set to true, then there may be saved checkpoint files. This method is provided so that users can manage those files.

New in version 2.0.0.

Returns:
list

List of checkpoint files from training

Notes

Removing the checkpoints can cause failures if a partition is lost and is needed by certain DistributedLDAModel methods. Reference counting will clean up the checkpoints when this model and derivative data go out of scope.

classmethod load(path)

Reads an ML instance from the input path, a shortcut of read().load(path).

logLikelihood(dataset)

Calculates a lower bound on the log likelihood of the entire corpus. See Equation (16) in the Online LDA paper (Hoffman et al., 2010).

Warning

If this model is an instance of DistributedLDAModel (produced when optimizer is set to “em”), this involves collecting a large topicsMatrix() to the driver. This implementation may be changed in the future.

New in version 2.0.0.

logPerplexity(dataset)

Calculate an upper bound on perplexity. (Lower is better.) See Equation (16) in the Online LDA paper (Hoffman et al., 2010).

Warning

If this model is an instance of DistributedLDAModel (produced when optimizer is set to “em”), this involves collecting a large topicsMatrix() to the driver. This implementation may be changed in the future.

New in version 2.0.0.

logPrior()[source]

Log probability of the current parameter estimate: log P(topics, topic distributions for docs | alpha, eta)

New in version 2.0.0.

classmethod read()

Returns an MLReader instance for this class.

save(path)

Save this ML instance to the given path, a shortcut of ‘write().save(path)’.

set(param, value)

Sets a parameter in the embedded param map.

setFeaturesCol(value)

Sets the value of featuresCol.

New in version 3.0.0.

setSeed(value)

New in version 3.0.0.

setTopicDistributionCol(value)

Sets the value of topicDistributionCol.

New in version 3.0.0.

toLocal()[source]

Convert this distributed model to a local representation. This discards info about the training dataset.

Warning

This involves collecting a large topicsMatrix() to the driver.

New in version 2.0.0.

topicsMatrix()

Inferred topics, where each topic is represented by a distribution over terms. This is a matrix of size vocabSize x k, where each column is a topic. No guarantees are given about the ordering of the topics.

Warning

If this model is actually a DistributedLDAModel instance produced by the Expectation-Maximization (“em”) optimizer, then this method could involve collecting a large amount of data to the driver (on the order of vocabSize x k).

New in version 2.0.0.

trainingLogLikelihood()[source]

Log likelihood of the observed tokens in the training set, given the current parameter estimates: log P(docs | topics, topic distributions for docs, Dirichlet hyperparameters)

Notes

  • This excludes the prior; for that, use logPrior().

  • Even with logPrior(), this is NOT the same as the data log likelihood given

    the hyperparameters.

  • This is computed from the topic distributions computed during training. If you call

    logLikelihood() on the same training dataset, the topic distributions will be computed again, possibly giving different results.

New in version 2.0.0.

transform(dataset, params=None)

Transforms the input dataset with optional parameters.

New in version 1.3.0.

Parameters:
datasetpyspark.sql.DataFrame

input dataset

paramsdict, optional

an optional param map that overrides embedded params.

Returns:
pyspark.sql.DataFrame

transformed dataset

vocabSize()
