Overview

Meno is designed to streamline topic modeling on free text data, with a special focus on messy datasets such as insurance claims notes and customer correspondence. The package combines classical methods like Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) with modern techniques leveraging large language models (LLMs) via Hugging Face, dimensionality reduction with UMAP, and advanced visualizations. It is built to be primarily used in Jupyter environments while also being flexible enough for other settings.

Key Features

• Team Configuration System (New in v0.9.0):

  • Share domain-specific dictionaries across teams and organizations
  • Import/export terminology in standard formats (JSON, YAML)
  • Compare and merge configurations from different teams
  • Track sources and versioning of domain knowledge
  • CLI tools for managing configurations

• Performance Optimizations (New in v0.9.0):

  • Memory-efficient processing for large datasets
  • Quantized embedding models for reduced resource usage
  • Polars integration for faster data processing
  • Streaming processing for larger-than-memory datasets
  • Graceful fallbacks when optional dependencies are missing

• Interactive Workflow (New in v0.8.0):

  • Guided workflow that takes users from raw data to final visualization
  • Interactive reporting of potential acronyms with expansion suggestions
  • Spelling detection and correction with context examples
  • Seamless connection to visualization and reporting

• Unsupervised Topic Modeling:

  • Automatically discover topics when no pre-existing topics are available using LDA and LLM-based embedding and clustering techniques.

• Supervised Topic Matching:

  • Match free text against a user-provided list of topics using semantic similarity and classification techniques.

• Advanced Visualization:

  • Create interactive and static visualizations including topic distributions, embeddings (UMAP projections), cluster analyses, and topic coherence metrics (e.g., word clouds per topic).
  • Time series, geospatial, and combined time-space visualizations for deeper analysis.

• Interactive HTML Reports:

  • Generate standalone, interactive HTML reports to present topic analysis to less technical stakeholders, with options for customization and data export.

• Robust Data Preprocessing:

  • Tackle messy data challenges (misspellings, unknown acronyms) with integrated cleaning functionalities using NLP libraries (spaCy, fuzzy matching, context-aware spelling correction, and customizable stop words/lemmatization rules).

• Active Learning with Cleanlab:

  • Incorporate active learning loops and fine-tuning of labels using Cleanlab, facilitating hand-labeling and iterative improvements, with multiple sampling strategies (e.g., uncertainty sampling).

• Flexible Deployment Options:

  • CPU-first design with optional GPU acceleration through separate installation options.
  • Load models from local files for use in environments without internet access or behind firewalls.

• Extensibility & Ease of Use:

  • Designed with modularity in mind so that users can plug in new cleaning, modeling, or visualization techniques without deep customization while still maintaining a simple interface.

    ).head(3)
    
    for _, row in topic_docs.iterrows():
        doc_idx = row.name
        doc_text = df.iloc[doc_idx]["claim_description"]
        print(f"- {doc_text[:100]}... (probability: {row['topic_probability']:.2f})")

# Visualize results
print("\nGenerating visualizations...")
fig = modeler.visualize_embeddings()
fig.write_html("insurance_embeddings.html")
print("Embeddings visualization saved to insurance_embeddings.html")

# Generate HTML report
report_path = modeler.generate_report(output_path="insurance_topics_report.html")
print(f"Comprehensive report generated at: {report_path}")

To run this example:

# Install required dependencies
pip install "numpy<2.0.0"
pip install "meno[minimal]" 
pip install datasets

# Save the example to a file
python insurance_example.py

The results will include interactive visualizations and a comprehensive topic report.

Architecture & Design

The package follows a modular design with clear separation of concerns:

Data Preprocessing Module:

• Spelling correction using thefuzz
• Acronym resolution
• Text normalization (lowercasing, punctuation removal, stemming/lemmatization)
• Customizable stop words and lemmatization

Topic Modeling Module:

• Unsupervised modeling with LDA or LLM-based embeddings + clustering
• Supervised topic matching using semantic similarity
• CPU-first design with optional GPU acceleration

Visualization Module:

• Static plots (topic distributions)
• Interactive embedding plots with UMAP projections
• Topic coherence visualizations

Report Generation Module:

• Interactive HTML reports using Plotly and Jinja2
• Customizable appearance and content
• Data export options

Dependencies & Requirements

• Python: 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 (primary target: 3.10)
• Core Libraries (always installed):
  • Data Processing: pandas, pyarrow
  • Machine Learning: scikit-learn
  • Text Processing: thefuzz
  • Configuration: pydantic, PyYAML, jinja2
• Optional Libraries (install based on needs):
  • Topic Modeling: gensim (for LDA)
  • Additional Topic Models: bertopic, top2vec
  • Embeddings (CPU): transformers, sentence-transformers, torch
  • Embeddings (GPU): Additional accelerate, bitsandbytes
  • Dimensionality Reduction: umap-learn
  • Clustering: hdbscan
  • Data Cleaning & NLP: spaCy
  • Visualization: plotly
  • Active Learning: cleanlab
  • Large Dataset Optimization: polars (for streaming and memory efficiency)

Roadmap to v1.0.0

We're working toward a v1.0.0 release with a focus on:

1. Reducing Dependencies - Minimizing required packages and conflicts
2. Performance Optimization - Faster processing with lower memory requirements
3. API Improvements - More consistent and intuitive interfaces
4. Enhanced CLI Tools - More command-line functionality for common tasks

See our detailed roadmap for more information about planned features and changes.
