# TopicDiff Visualisation Application

![Test and Deploy on Heroku](https://github.com/kylase/topicdiff/actions/workflows/test-and-deploy.yml/badge.svg)

## Instructions

### Windows PowerShell

`$env:FLASK_APP = "run.py"`

For development: `$env:FLASK_ENV = "development"`

### Linux/macOS

`export FLASK_APP="run.py"`

For development: `export FLASK_APP="development"`

## Objective

The main objective of this web application is to visualise how 2 documents are similar in terms of the topics that they cover using a topic model.

## Technical Design

### Topic Model

The topic model is trained with the [Wikipedia's page dumps](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20180520/) using [gensim's LDA implementation](https://radimrehurek.com/gensim/models/ldamodel.html).

### Web Application

The web application is built with Python.

[Flask](http://flask.pocoo.org/) is used as the back-end framework to handle the processing logic and to serve the data.

[jQuery](https://jquery.com/), [d3](https://d3js.org/), [Bootstrap](https://getbootstrap.com/) are used for the front-end design.

## API

Refer to the [Swagger](https://topicdiff.herokuapp.com/api/docs/) for the API reference.
