通过corpora.csvcorpus在gensim LDA中输入CSV

Question

I wanna use the LDA in gensim for topic modeling over a few thousand documents. Therefore I´m using a csv-File as Input in the format of a term-document-matrix.

Currently it occurs an error when running the following code:

from gensim import corpora

import_path ="TDM.csv"

dictionary = corpora.csvcorpus(import_path, labels='true')

The error is the following:

dictionary = corpora.csvcorpus(import_path, labels='true')

AttributeError: module 'gensim.corpora' has no attribute 'csvcorpus'

Am I using the module correctly and if so, where is my mistake?

Thanks in advance.

This also bugged me for quite awhile. It looks like csvcorpus is actually in the experimental stage as you can see in their github issue, https://github.com/RaRe-Technologies/gensim/issues/1583

I would recommend going by the old fashioned way of using the csv package to read your csv file instead.

Cheers.
