每次我在同一语料库上训练时，LDA 模型都会生成不同的主题

我正在使用Pythongensim从包含 231 个句子的小语料库中训练潜在狄利克雷分配 (LDA) 模型。然而，每次我重复这个过程，它都会产生不同的主题。

为什么相同的LDA参数和语料每次生成不同的主题？

如何稳定话题生成？

我正在使用这个语料库（http://pastebin.com/WptkKVF0 http://pastebin.com/WptkKVF0）和这个停用词列表（http://pastebin.com/LL7dqLcj http://pastebin.com/LL7dqLcj）这是我的代码：

from gensim import corpora, models, similarities
from gensim.models import hdpmodel, ldamodel
from itertools import izip
from collections import defaultdict
import codecs, os, glob, math

stopwords = [i.strip() for i in codecs.open('stopmild','r','utf8').readlines() if i[0] != "#" and i != ""]

def generateTopics(corpus, dictionary):
    # Build LDA model using the above corpus
    lda = ldamodel.LdaModel(corpus, id2word=dictionary, num_topics=50)
    corpus_lda = lda[corpus]

    # Group topics with similar words together.
    tops = set(lda.show_topics(50))
    top_clusters = []
    for l in tops:
        top = []
        for t in l.split(" + "):
            top.append((t.split("*")[0], t.split("*")[1]))
        top_clusters.append(top)

    # Generate word only topics
    top_wordonly = []
    for i in top_clusters:
        top_wordonly.append(":".join([j[1] for j in i]))

    return lda, corpus_lda, top_clusters, top_wordonly

####################################################################### 

# Read textfile, build dictionary and bag-of-words corpus
documents = []
for line in codecs.open("./europarl-mini2/map/coach.en-es.all","r","utf8"):
    lemma = line.split("\t")[3]
    documents.append(lemma)
texts = [[word for word in document.lower().split() if word not in stopwords]
             for document in documents]
dictionary = corpora.Dictionary(texts)
corpus = [dictionary.doc2bow(text) for text in texts]

lda, corpus_lda, topic_clusters, topic_wordonly = generateTopics(corpus, dictionary)

for i in topic_wordonly:
    print i

为什么相同的LDA参数和语料每次生成不同的主题？

因为 LDA 在训练和推理步骤中都使用随机性。

如何稳定话题生成？

通过重置numpy.random每次训练模型或执行推理时都将种子设置为相同的值，其中numpy.random.seed:

SOME_FIXED_SEED = 42

# before training/inference:
np.random.seed(SOME_FIXED_SEED)

（这很丑陋，而且它使 Gensim 结果难以重现；考虑提交补丁。我已经打开了一个issue https://github.com/piskvorky/gensim/issues/113.)
