Joseph K. Bradley commented on SPARK-13161:
-------------------------------------------

There are many generalizations of LDA, so it would be valuable to know about 
people's use cases and needs.  Do you have a use case you could describe for 
this?

It would be great to have this feature as a Spark package in the meantime.

> Extend MLlib LDA to include options for Author Topic Modeling

> The author-topic model, a generative model for documents that extends Latent 
> Dirichlet Allocation.
> By modeling the interests of authors, we can answer a range of important 
> queries about the content of document collections. With an appropriate author 
> model, we can establish which subjects an author writes about, which authors 
> are likely to have written documents similar to an observed document, and 
> which authors produce similar work.
> Full whitepaper here.
