Abstract(in English) Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA) and Latent Dirichlet analysis are known as topic models to analyze text data and images. Many different parameters (solutions) of a topic model can be obtained due to different initial conditions. To utilize diversity of solutions, it is necessary to acquire distribution structure of them. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel method to define similarity (inner product) of solutions using normalized mutual information to analyze distribution of solutions. Experimental results for text data arepresented to show the usefulness of proposed method.
