An R interface for the Java Machine Learning for Language Toolkit (mallet) < http://mallet.cs.umass.edu/> to estimate probabilistic topic models, such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation. We can use the R package to read textual data into mallet from R objects, run the Java implementation of mallet directly in R, and extract results as R objects. The Mallet toolkit has many functions, this wrapper focuses on the topic modeling sub-package written by David Mimno. The package uses the rJava package to connect to a JVM.
