Wishlist: more documentation / vignettes for textmodels

Open cschwem2er opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Its very handy that quanteda enables to easily apply several textmodels without the need of any further packages, but I'd assume that some users will not know the basics of how the models actually work.

I think it would be nice to have a vignette dedicated to textmodels, which would not only include application examples, but also a short intro for what the basic idea of the models is and which would be the most important parameters to tune. Another option would be to rather enhance the documentation, or both. Neither of this could of course replace to study corresponding research articles etc., but it would nevertheless help new users.

Agreed - I will make this a priority.
