Q1Domain Verified
In the context of LSA, what fundamental mathematical operation is most crucial for decomposing the document-term matrix into lower-dimensional representations, and what is the primary goal of this decomposition?
Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) to extract additive latent features.
Eigen decomposition to find dominant eigenvectors representing document clusters.
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to maximize variance and reduce dimensionality.
Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to reduce noise and identify latent topics.
Q2Domain Verified
A key challenge in applying LSA to a corpus is the "curse of dimensionality," leading to sparse and high-dimensional document-term matrices. How does LSA address this challenge, and what is the theoretical underpinning of its effectiveness in overcoming sparsity?
By employing word embeddings like Word2Vec or GloVe to represent words as dense vectors before constructing the document-term matrix, thus avoiding sparsity from the outset.
By using TF-IDF weighting to emphasize important terms and reduce the impact of infrequent words, implicitly creating a denser representation.
Through dimensionality reduction via SVD, which projects the sparse matrix into a lower-dimensional space where semantic relationships become more apparent, effectively "densifying" the representation in terms of semantic meaning.
By applying Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) to group documents into topics, thereby reducing the overall number of features (topics) considered.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where two documents discuss "apple" and "orange" respectively. In a raw document-term matrix, these words would be treated as distinct. How does LSA, through its latent semantic space, reconcile such semantic distinctions and facilitate more robust information retrieval or document comparison?
By mapping "apple" and "orange" to similar latent semantic vectors if they frequently co-occur with similar contexts (e.g., "fruit," "food," "healthy"), thus capturing their shared semantic category.
By assigning a unique latent dimension to each distinct word, reinforcing their separateness.
By relying on lexical databases like WordNet to find direct synonym relationships, which is an explicit step within the LSA process.
By clustering documents based on word co-occurrence within a fixed window size, ignoring semantic nuances.
