Originality Incremental advance
AI Analysis

This work addresses the need for more user-friendly and interpretable topic modeling tools, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing anchor word formalism.

The paper tackles the problem of making topic modeling more customizable and interpretable by introducing an interactive protocol that allows users to interact with anchor words, with experimental evidence presented to validate its usefulness.

The formalism of anchor words has enabled the development of fast topic modeling algorithms with provable guarantees. In this paper, we introduce a protocol that allows users to interact with anchor words to build customized and interpretable topic models. Experimental evidence validating the usefulness of our approach is also presented.
