Get the list of documents affected after doing hierarchical_topics method

[stanley-tarce]

Basically, I want to determine the list of documents affected for each left child topic, right child topic, and parent topic (if it has documents listed) after doing this function.

hierarchical_topics = topic_model.hierarchical_topics(docs=docs)

Any idea how can I get the list of documents for hierarchical topics? Thank you!

You would have to extract those manually since you have topic assignments with topic_model.topics_. Using those together with hierarchical_topics you can check which documents might end up merged with documents in another topic.

Oh okay! So that means, when you do the hierarchical topics method, it won't alter the topic assignment from the response of the topic_model.fit_and_transform method?

That's correct!
