> Probabilistic latent semantic analysis (PLSA) is a topic model which extracts topics from text corpus. PLSA was historically a predecessor of LDA. However recent research shows that modifications of PLSA sometimes performs better then LDA[1]. Furthermore, the most recent paper by same authors shows that there is a clear way to extend PLSA to LDA and beyond[2].
> We should implement distributed versions of PLSA. In addition it should be possible  to easily add user defined regularizers or combination of them. We will implement regularizers that allows
> * extract sparse topics
> * extract human interpretable topics 
> * perform semi-supervised training 
> * sort out non-topic specific terms.
