Popis: This paper proposes adversarial learning for topic models. Adversarial learning we consider here is a method of density ratio estimation using a neural network called discriminator. In generative adversarial networks (GANs) we train discriminator for estimating the density ratio between the true data distribution and the generator distribution. Also in variational inference (VI) for Bayesian probabilistic models we can train discriminator for estimating the density ratio between the approximate posterior distribution and the prior distribution. With the adversarial learning in VI we can adopt implicit distribution as an approximate posterior. This paper proposes adversarial learning for latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) to improve the expressiveness of the approximate posterior. Our experimental results showed that the quality of extracted topics was improved in terms of test perplexity.
