Topic modeling

A text analysis method that helps identify recurring themes or subjects in large sets of text.

Topic modeling groups words into topics by finding patterns in how they appear together. People often use it in search engines, content management, and natural language processing tasks.

In localization, topic modeling can help translators identify related words or phrases that belong to the same subject. This improves consistency and ensures translations stay aligned across different parts of the text. For example, identifying topics like onboarding, payments, or support can help translators keep the same tone and terminology throughout.

This technique works well with other language tools like tokenization and stemming.
