Statistical topic models are attractive because they allow for a rapid analysis and understanding of new collections of text. However, this framework cannot provide sufficient information for the problem of learning a topic hierarchy from data. It has been shown recently that the data-driven learning approaches combined with some structure and prior knowledge can be a satisfactory solution. In this paper, we review a new probabilistic framework which adds the hierarchical information within document frequency into topics to seek the more semantic structure. The hierarchical topics created by DF topic model have a natural relationship beyond the tree structure. We illustrate our approach on 20 Newsgroups to show the performance of our model in extracting hierarchy of topics.
