tidytext: Text mining using tidy tools

Authors: Julia Silge, David Robinson
License: MIT

Using tidy data principles can make many text mining tasks easier, more effective, and consistent with tools already in wide use. Much of the infrastructure needed for text mining with tidy data frames already exists in packages like dplyr, broom, tidyr, and ggplot2. In this package, we provide functions and supporting data sets to allow conversion of text to and from tidy formats, and to switch seamlessly between tidy tools and existing text mining packages. Check out our book to learn more about text mining using tidy data principles.

You can install this package from CRAN:

Or you can install the development version from GitHub with remotes:

The novels of Jane Austen can be so tidy! Let’s use the text of Jane Austen’s 6 completed, published novels from the janeaustenr package, and transform them to a tidy format. janeaustenr provides them as a one-row-per-line format:

To work with this as a tidy dataset, we need to restructure it as one-token-per-row format. The unnest_tokens() function is a way to convert a dataframe with a text column to be one-token-per-row:

This function uses the tokenizers package to separate each line into words. The default tokenizing is for words, but other options include characters, n-grams, sentences, lines, paragraphs, or separation around a regex pattern.

Now that the data is in a one-word-per-row format, we can manipulate it with tidy tools like dplyr. We can remove stop words (available via the function get_stopwords()) with an anti_join().

We can also use count() to find the most common words in all the books as a whole.

Sentiment analysis can be implemented as an inner join. Three sentiment lexicons are available via the get_sentiments() function. Let’s examine how sentiment changes across each novel. Let’s find a sentiment score for each word using the Bing lexicon, then count the number of positive and negative words in defined sections of each novel.

Now we can plot these sentiment scores across the plot trajectory of each novel.

For more examples of text mining using tidy data frames, see the tidytext vignette.

Some existing text mining datasets are in the form of a DocumentTermMatrix class (from the tm package). For example, consider the corpus of 2246 Associated Press articles from the topicmodels dataset.

If we want to analyze this with tidy tools, we need to transform it into a one-row-per-term data frame first with a tidy() function. (For more on the tidy verb, see the broom package).

We could find the most negative documents:

Or we can join the Austen and AP datasets and compare the frequencies of each word:

For more examples of working with objects from other text mining packages using tidy data principles, see the vignette on converting to and from document term matrices.
