For text analysis, one often resorts to a lossy representation that either completely ignores word order or embeds each word as a low-dimensional dense feature vector. In this paper, we propose convolutional Poisson factor analysis (CPFA) that directly operates on a lossless representation that processes the words in each document as a sequence of high-dimensional one-hot vectors. To boost its performance, we further propose the convolutional Poisson gamma belief network (CPGBN) that couples CPFA with the gamma belief network via a novel probabilistic pooling layer. CPFA forms words into phrases and captures very specific phrase-level topics, and CPGBN further builds a hierarchy of increasingly more general phrase-level topics. For efficient inference, we develop both a Gibbs sampler and a Weibull distribution based convolutional variational auto-encoder. Experimental results demonstrate that CPGBN can extract high-quality text latent representations that capture the word order information, and hence can be leveraged as a building block to enrich a wide variety of existing latent variable models that ignore word order.

Bo Chen, Ph.D., Professor. Before joining the Department of Electronic Engineering in Xidian University in 2013, I was a post-doc researcher, research scientist and senior research scientist at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in Duke University. In 2013 and 2014, I was elected into the Program for New Century Excellent Talents in University and the Program for Thousand Youth Talents respectively. I am interested in developing statistical machine learning methods for the complex and large-scale data. My current interests are in statistical signal processing, statistical machine learning, deep learning and their applications to radar target detection and recognition.
