Text Mining Action Set

Example 22.1 Derive Topics from a Document Collection

Derive Topics from a Document Collection

This section contains PROC CAS code.

Note: Input data must be in a CAS table that is accessible in your CAS session. This table has a two-level name; the first level is your CAS engine libref and the second level is the table name. You refer to this table in the CAS procedure by specifying only the second level. For more information about two-level names, see Chapter 3: Shared Concepts in SAS Visual Data Mining and Machine Learning 8.3: Procedures Guide. For more information about PROC CAS and programming in CASL, see Getting Started with CASL, SAS Cloud Analytic Services: CAS Procedure Programming Guide and Reference, and SAS Viya: System Programming Guide.

This example demonstrates how to derive topics from a collection by using the tmMine action. The following DATA step creates an input data table named mycas.reviews. This step assumes that the CAS engine libref is named mycas, but you can substitute any appropriately named CAS engine libref.

   data mycas.reviews;
   infile datalines delimiter='|' missover;
   length text $300 category $20;
   input text$ positive category$ did;
   datalines;
    This is the greatest phone ever! love it! It can replace my tv! |1|electronics|1
    The phone's battery life is too short and screen resolution is low.|0|electronics|2
    The screen resolution is low, but I love this tv. Good viewing.|1|electronics|3
    The movie itself is great and I liked watching it. Good acting! |1|movies|4
    The movie's story is boring and the acting is poor.|0|movies|5
    I watched this movie but it was boring. |0|movies|6
    The book has a terrific plot!|1|books |7
    The book's plot was suspenseful. Good read.|1|books|8
    I love the author, but this book is a waste of time to read.|0|books|9
;
run;

The following PROC CAS step loads the included stop list into the active caslib for use:

   proc cas;
       loadtable caslib="ReferenceData" path="en_stoplist.sashdat";
   run;
quit;

The following PROC CAS step calls the tmMine action, which parses the text, applies the stop list, calculates the SVD factorization, and discovers topics all in a single action. When the action completes, Output 22.1.1 through Output 22.1.3 are printed.

 proc cas;
     loadactionset "textMining";
     action tmMine;
     param
     docId="did"
     documents={ name="reviews"}
     text="text"
     nounGroups= False
     tagging = True
     stemming= True
     stopList ={ name="en_stoplist"}
     parseConfig={name="config", replace=TRUE}
     parent ={ name="parent",replace=TRUE}
     offset ={name="offset",replace=TRUE}
     terms ={ name="terms", replace=TRUE}
     reduce=2
     k=3
     docPro ={ name="docpro", replace=TRUE}
     topics ={ name="topics", replace=TRUE}
     u ={ name="svdu", replace=TRUE}
     numLabels=3
 topicDecision=True
 ;
 action table.fetch /table="topics", orderBy="_TopicID_"; run;
 action table.fetch /table="docpro", orderBy="did"; run;
 action table.fetch /table="svdu", orderBy="_TermNum_"; run;
 run;
 quit;

Output 22.1.1 displays the contents of the mycas.topics table, which contains the discovered topics..
