Latent Dirichlet Allocation with online variational Bayes algorithm  New in version 0.17.  Read more in the User Guide.  Parameters 
 
n_componentsint, default=10 

Number of topics.  Changed in version 0.19: n_topics was renamed to n_components   
doc_topic_priorfloat, default=None 

Prior of document topic distribution theta. If the value is None, defaults to 1 / n_components. In [1], this is called alpha.  
topic_word_priorfloat, default=None 

Prior of topic word distribution beta. If the value is None, defaults to 1 / n_components. In [1], this is called eta.  
learning_method{‘batch’, ‘online’}, default=’batch’ 

Method used to update _component. Only used in fit method. In general, if the data size is large, the online update will be much faster than the batch update. Valid options: 'batch': Batch variational Bayes method. Use all training data in
    each EM update.
    Old `components_` will be overwritten in each iteration.
'online': Online variational Bayes method. In each EM update, use
    mini-batch of training data to update the ``components_``
    variable incrementally. The learning rate is controlled by the
    ``learning_decay`` and the ``learning_offset`` parameters.
  Changed in version 0.20: The default learning method is now "batch".   
learning_decayfloat, default=0.7 

It is a parameter that control learning rate in the online learning method. The value should be set between (0.5, 1.0] to guarantee asymptotic convergence. When the value is 0.0 and batch_size is n_samples, the update method is same as batch learning. In the literature, this is called kappa.  
learning_offsetfloat, default=10. 

A (positive) parameter that downweights early iterations in online learning. It should be greater than 1.0. In the literature, this is called tau_0.  
max_iterint, default=10 

The maximum number of iterations.  
batch_sizeint, default=128 

Number of documents to use in each EM iteration. Only used in online learning.  
evaluate_everyint, default=-1 

How often to evaluate perplexity. Only used in fit method. set it to 0 or negative number to not evaluate perplexity in training at all. Evaluating perplexity can help you check convergence in training process, but it will also increase total training time. Evaluating perplexity in every iteration might increase training time up to two-fold.  
total_samplesint, default=1e6 

Total number of documents. Only used in the partial_fit method.  
perp_tolfloat, default=1e-1 

Perplexity tolerance in batch learning. Only used when evaluate_every is greater than 0.  
mean_change_tolfloat, default=1e-3 

Stopping tolerance for updating document topic distribution in E-step.  
max_doc_update_iterint, default=100 

Max number of iterations for updating document topic distribution in the E-step.  
n_jobsint, default=None 

The number of jobs to use in the E-step. None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context. -1 means using all processors. See Glossary for more details.  
verboseint, default=0 

Verbosity level.  
random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, default=None 

Pass an int for reproducible results across multiple function calls. See Glossary.    Attributes 
 
components_ndarray of shape (n_components, n_features) 

Variational parameters for topic word distribution. Since the complete conditional for topic word distribution is a Dirichlet, components_[i, j] can be viewed as pseudocount that represents the number of times word j was assigned to topic i. It can also be viewed as distribution over the words for each topic after normalization: model.components_ / model.components_.sum(axis=1)[:, np.newaxis].  
exp_dirichlet_component_ndarray of shape (n_components, n_features) 

Exponential value of expectation of log topic word distribution. In the literature, this is exp(E[log(beta)]).  
n_batch_iter_int 

Number of iterations of the EM step.  
n_iter_int 

Number of passes over the dataset.  
bound_float 

Final perplexity score on training set.  
doc_topic_prior_float 

Prior of document topic distribution theta. If the value is None, it is 1 / n_components.  
random_state_RandomState instance 

RandomState instance that is generated either from a seed, the random number generator or by np.random.  
topic_word_prior_float 

Prior of topic word distribution beta. If the value is None, it is 1 / n_components.     References
