Topic modeling with text networks

Topic Network - topic modeling with text networks
--------

This package builds a text network out of a list of strings, picks the most important words on the basis of betweenness centrality measure, and performs community detection to group the words into topic networks and return the groups. The methods used are language-agnostic, meaning that you can perform the topic modeling on any text in any language.
The package uses NetworkX to build the network and perform the necessary calculations.

To install the package, use::

>>> pip install topicnetwork

To find the topics, simply use::

>>> import topicnetwork
>>> topics = topicnetwork.find_topics(list_of_strings)

For best results, use a text without punctuation and stopwords, and words converted to lowercase. You can perform the cleaning on your English texts with:

>>> text = topicnetwork.clean(list_of_strings)
