sentopics 1.0.0

Breaking changes

• Renamed base class sentopicmodel to sentopicsmodel for consistency with the package name.

• Renamed various functions and classes to snake_case style.

  • renamed function mergeTopics() to merge_topics()
  • renamed function topWords() to top_words()
  • renamed function plot_topWords() to plot_top_words()
  • renamed function chainsScores() to chains_scores()
  • renamed function chainsDistances() to chains_distances()
  • renamed S3 class topWords to top_words
  • renamed S3 class multiChains to multi_chains

• Corrected naming of Reverse Joint Sentiment/Topic model (rJST). To align with this change, internal attributes of sentopicsmodel objects have been renamed from reversed to reverse.

• Modified names of columns in the PicaultRenault_data dataset to syntactically valid names.

• Removed .sentiment docvars in ECB_press_conferences dataset.

• Fixed a bias in JST and rJST models caused by cached probabilities.

• Fixed a labeling error when extracting sentiment time series for rJST models.

Other changes

• Reformatted codebase using Air.
• Removed a comprehensive assessment from the PicaultRenault_data dataset not present in the original paper.
• Fixed model relabelling with stored scaled sentiment, optional arguments in sentiment_series(), melt() dispatch with current data.table versions, and JST coherence dimension labels.
• Restored R-backed token and assignment indices after sampling errors, and record unevaluated log-likelihoods as NA when computeLikelihood = FALSE.
• LDA inference performance improvements.
• Miscellaneous test improvements.

sentopics 0.7.7

• Support quanteda 4.5.0.

sentopics 0.7.6

• Fixed an example following change in suggested dependency.

sentopics 0.7.5

• Fixed a test following change in suggested dependency.

sentopics 0.7.4

• Fixed a test

sentopics 0.7.3

• Renamed grow() to fit() as a more intuitive name. grow() remains in the package for compatibility with older version.
• Aligned the weight argument and the algorithm of topWords(..., method="FREX") to the original paper.
• Fixed the unexported function get_ECB_conferences() to accommodates changes from the ECB website.
• Fixed the model conversion from newer seededlda versions (1.2.0 and subsequent)

sentopics 0.7.2

• Added as.LDA() method for outputs from the keyATM package.
• Fixed conflict with data.table::melt() when data.table was loaded prior to sentopics

sentopics 0.7.1

• Small change of a test sometimes failing on other platforms.

sentopics 0.7.0

• Improved dependency to older version of R
• Added conversions from other packages (lda, topicmodels and stm)

• Reduced vignettes size
• Bug fix: Fixed an error in as.tokens.dfm()
