meta-model: multiple LDA_TS structure: function and options list
the next step upwards in the model structural hierarchy will combine multiple individual full runs of an LDA_TS
model
we need to determine what we'll call it (mLDA_TS
, LDA_TSs
, ??), but this function will allow for multiple runs of the same model front-to-back but with perhaps different data, for example with leaving-out-cross validation approaches that work with evaluation of the full model at the end, rather than at each component.
this functionality will also allow for a more active decision making about each of the component models (see #146 #147 #148), allowing the user to for example decide on which topic model or time series model to use.
accordingly, we'll need a higher-level options list that controls the full model run, evaluation, and selection.
we'll want to have some element at the top level and perhaps at lower levels in the model objects that indicates which data are used/not out of a whole data set
