Soyuz was designed in the 1970s.
In machine learning and natural language processing , the pachinko allocation model -LRB- PAM -RRB- is a topic model .. machine learning. machine learning. natural language processing. natural language processing. topic model. topic model. pachinko. pachinko. Topic models are a suite of algorithms to uncover the hidden thematic structure of a collection of documents .. The algorithm improves upon earlier topic models such as latent Dirichlet allocation -LRB- LDA -RRB- by modeling correlations between topics in addition to the word correlations which constitute topics .. latent Dirichlet allocation. latent Dirichlet allocation. PAM provides more ﬂexibility and greater expressive power. than latent Dirichlet allocation .. latent Dirichlet allocation. latent Dirichlet allocation. While first described and implemented in the context of natural language processing , the algorithm may have applications in other fields such as bioinformatics .. natural language processing. natural language processing. bioinformatics. bioinformatics.
