The parallelization uses multiprocessing; in case this doesn't work for you for some reason, try the :class:`gensim.models.ldamodel.LdaModel` class which is an equivalent, but more straightforward and single-core implementation. The training algorithm: * is **streamed**: training documents may come in sequentially, no random access required, * runs in **constant memory** w.r.t. the number of documents: size of the training corpus does not affect memory footprint, can process corpora larger than RAM Wall-clock `performance on the English Wikipedia `_ (2G corpus positions, 3.5M documents, 100K features, 0.54G non-zero entries in the final bag-of-words matrix), requesting 100 topics: ====================================================== ============== algorithm training time ====================================================== ============== LdaMulticore(workers=1) 2h30m LdaMulticore(workers=2) 1h24m LdaMulticore(workers=3) 1h6m old LdaModel() 3h44m simply iterating over input corpus = I/O overhead 20m ====================================================== ============== (Measured on `this i7 server `_ with 4 physical cores, so that optimal `workers=3`, one less than the number of cores.) This module allows both LDA model estimation from a training corpus and inference of topic distribution on new, unseen documents. The model can also be updated with new documents for online training.

It is used to determine the vocabulary size, as well as for debugging and topic printing. workers : int, optional Number of workers processes to be used for parallelization. If None all available cores (as estimated by `workers=cpu_count()-1` will be used. **Note** however that for hyper-threaded CPUs, this estimation returns a too high number -- set `workers` directly to the number of your **real** cores (not hyperthreads) minus one, for optimal performance. chunksize : int, optional Number of documents to be used in each training chunk. passes : int, optional Number of passes through the corpus during training. alpha : {float, numpy.ndarray of float, list of float, str}, optional A-priori belief on document-topic distribution, this can be: * scalar for a symmetric prior over document-topic distribution, * 1D array of length equal to num_topics to denote an asymmetric user defined prior for each topic. Alternatively default prior selecting strategies can be employed by supplying a string: * 'symmetric': (default) Uses a fixed symmetric prior of `1.0 / num_topics`, * 'asymmetric': Uses a fixed normalized asymmetric prior of `1.0 / (topic_index + sqrt(num_topics))`. eta : {float, numpy.ndarray of float, list of float, str}, optional A-priori belief on topic-word distribution, this can be: * scalar for a symmetric prior over topic-word distribution, * 1D array of length equal to num_words to denote an asymmetric user defined prior for each word, * matrix of shape (num_topics, num_words) to assign a probability for each word-topic combination. Alternatively default prior selecting strategies can be employed by supplying a string: * 'symmetric': (default) Uses a fixed symmetric prior of `1.0 / num_topics`, * 'auto': Learns an asymmetric prior from the corpus. decay : float, optional A number between (0.5, 1] to weight what percentage of the previous lambda value is forgotten when each new document is examined. Corresponds to :math:`\\kappa` from `'Online Learning for LDA' by Hoffman et al.`_ offset : float, optional Hyper-parameter that controls how much we will slow down the first steps the first few iterations. Corresponds to :math:`\\tau_0` from `'Online Learning for LDA' by Hoffman et al.`_ eval_every : int, optional Log perplexity is estimated every that many updates. Setting this to one slows down training by ~2x. iterations : int, optional Maximum number of iterations through the corpus when inferring the topic distribution of a corpus. gamma_threshold : float, optional Minimum change in the value of the gamma parameters to continue iterating. minimum_probability : float, optional Topics with a probability lower than this threshold will be filtered out. random_state : {np.random.RandomState, int}, optional Either a randomState object or a seed to generate one. Useful for reproducibility. Note that results can still vary due to non-determinism in OS scheduling of the worker processes. minimum_phi_value : float, optional if `per_word_topics` is True, this represents a lower bound on the term probabilities. per_word_topics : bool If True, the model also computes a list of topics, sorted in descending order of most likely topics for each word, along with their phi values multiplied by the feature length (i.e. word count). dtype : {numpy.float16, numpy.float32, numpy.float64}, optional Data-type to use during calculations inside model.

The E step is distributed into the several processes. Notes ----- This update also supports updating an already trained model (`self`) with new documents from `corpus`; the two models are then merged in proportion to the number of old vs. new documents. This feature is still experimental for non-stationary input streams.
