Topic Modelling With Quantized LLaMA 3 & BERTopic
Today we’re diving into topic modeling using a powerful algorithm called BERTopic, and Llama-3, the next generation of Llama, is now available for broad use. It features pre-trained and instruction-fine-tuned language models with 8B and 70B parameters, supporting various use cases. We will be using topic modeling for topic extraction using BERTopic and the quantized gguf version of Llama-3–8b-instruct from the dataset, and visualizing it for further understanding.
What is Topic Modeling?
Businesses need help with vast amounts of unstructured text daily, ranging from customer emails to online reviews. This abundance of textual data necessitates efficient organization and understanding, leading us to rely on topic modeling.
Topic modeling is a statistical technique using unsupervised machine learning to uncover and showcase thematic structures within textual data. It’s crucial in various domains like information retrieval, text mining, modern search systems, and data visualization. These applications enable researchers to explore vast textual datasets efficiently.
The complexity of unstructured text data has historically posed challenges, including a lack of labeled data, limited context understanding, and difficulties in topic interpretation. Additionally, traditional topic modeling methods needed more scalability and pre-trained models, further hindering efficient analysis. However, recent advancements in natural language processing (NLP), particularly with the development of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and GPT-4, have revolutionized topic modeling efficiency, especially for smaller datasets.
While LLMs offer improved capabilities, directly passing all documents for analysis remains computationally impractical. Here, BERTopic emerges as a potent solution, leveraging Transformer models’ language comprehension and C-TF-IDF to create dense clusters of coherent topics. Instead of analyzing each document individually, BERTopic’s clusters provide a foundation for LLMs to distill and fine-tune topic representations accurately.
By leveraging BERTopic’s clustering abilities, we can improve topic modeling with LLMs, optimizing the analysis of large textual datasets without excessive computational requirements.
Why LLaMA-3 instead of ChatGPT or Gemini?
The Llama 3 language model is trained on a large, high-quality pretraining dataset of over 15T tokens from publicly available sources.
The dataset is seven times larger than Llama 2 and includes four times more code. Over 5% of the dataset is non-English, covering over 30 languages. To ensure high-quality data, a series of data-filtering pipelines are developed, including heuristic filters, NSFW filters, semantic deduplication approaches, and text classifiers. Experiments are conducted to select the best data mix for Llama 3.
Llama 3 demonstrates superior capabilities across various AI benchmarks. The 8B model excels in human-like evaluations, while the 70B model shows outstanding performance in complex reasoning and mathematical tasks, surpassing other leading models such as Gemini Pro 1.5 and Claude 3 Sonnet and 8B outperforming Gemma 7B and Mistral 7B instruct.
The LMSYS Chatbot Arena uses over 800,000 human comparisons to rank large language models (LLMs) on an Elo scale. Currently, the Llama 3 70B-Instruct model holds the 6th position on this leaderboard, demonstrating its robust performance in real-world conversational settings. According to Meta’s Llama 3 release blog, the 8B model is the best in its category
Despite its high performance, Llama 3 is available at a fraction of the cost of comparable models like GPT-4. This price advantage, coupled with its open-source model, democratizes access to cutting-edge AI technologies, making it a financially attractive option for developers and businesses.
Let’s Implement the Topic Model on ML Research Papers!

# ArXiv ML Documents
docs = load_dataset("CShorten/CORD19-init-160k")["train"]["abstract"] # CShorten/1000-CORD19-Papers-Text
# Use llama.cpp to load in a Quantized LLM
llm = Llama(model_path=model_path, n_gpu_layers=-1, n_ctx=4096, stop=["Q:", "\n"],verbose=False)Once the LLM is loaded, a KeyBERTInspired representation is added to compare with the Llm representation, and the document is converted to a numeric representation using a sentence transformer, a model optimized for semantic similarity. These models are very useful for clustering tasks and can efficiently create embedding of documents and statements. Precomputing the embedding of each document speeds up the search procedure and allows you to quickly iterate over the hyperparameters of BERTopic as needed. In this case, we are using the BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5 model.
After you get the numeric document representation, you need to reduce their dimensions. Cluster models often struggle with high-dimensional data because of the curse of dimensionality. Methods such as PCA are effective for reducing dimensions, but the default choice of BERTopic is UMAP. UMAP is a technique that preserves both the local and global structure of a dataset while reducing its dimensions. It is very important to retain this structure because it contains information that is essential for creating a cluster of semantically similar documents.
Next, we define the UMAP and HDBSCAN models.
prompt = """ Q:
I have a topic that contains the following documents:
