To find the most discussed topics in the comments that are in either English or Spanish, the machine learning specialist needs to perform two steps: first, translate the comments from Spanish to English if necessary, and second, apply a topic modeling algorithm to the comments. The following options are valid ways to accomplish these steps using AWS services:
Option C: Use Amazon Translate to translate from Spanish to English, if necessary. Use Amazon Comprehend topic modeling to find the topics. Amazon Translate is a neural machine translation service that delivers fast, high-quality, and affordable language translation. Amazon Comprehend is a natural language processing (NLP) service that uses machine learning to find insights and relationships in text. Amazon Comprehend topic modeling is a feature that automatically organizes a collection of text documents into topics that contain commonly used words and phrases.
Option E: Use Amazon Translate to translate from Spanish to English, if necessary. Use Amazon SageMaker Neural Topic Model (NTM) to find the topics. Amazon SageMaker is a fully managed service that provides every developer and data scientist with the ability to build, train, and deploy machine learning (ML) models quickly. Amazon SageMaker Neural Topic Model (NTM) is an unsupervised learning algorithm that is used to organize a corpus of documents into topics that contain word groupings based on their statistical distribution.
The other options are not valid because:
Option A: Amazon SageMaker BlazingText algorithm is not a topic modeling algorithm, but a text classification and word embedding algorithm. It cannot find the topics independently from language, as different languages have different word distributions and semantics.
Option B: Amazon SageMaker seq2seq algorithm is not a translation algorithm, but a sequence-to-sequence learning algorithm that can be used for tasks such as summarization, chatbot, and question answering. Amazon SageMaker Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm is a topic modeling algorithm, but it requires the input documents to be in the same language and preprocessed into a bag-of-words format.
Option D: Amazon Lex is not a topic modeling algorithm, but a service for building conversational interfaces into any application using voice and text. It cannot extract topics from the content, but only intents and slots based on a predefined bot configuration. References:
