Text mining and topic modeling using network analysis

Focus on the Relations in Your Text

Use advanced network science metrics, such as betweenness centrality and modularity to identify the most important topics in your text and the relations between them.

1. Import Your Spreadsheets,
PDF, or Text Data

You can use CSV spreadsheets, PDF / text files, or create your graphs from scratch using our text-to-graph editor, which is blazingly fast.

2. Apply Network Science to
Get an Overview & Tag Your Data

Apply force-layout and modularity algorithms to detect topic clusters and tag your text statements. Range the nodes by their influence using betweenness centrality.

3. Use Open AI GPT
to Generate Insight

Use the network representation to find the structural gaps in your discourse. Then apply the built-in AI to generate research questions to bridge those gaps.


Advanced Statistics for Your Machine Learning Models

Calculate and export advanced statistical data on your text and every statement. Tag every statement for further use.

Interactive Text Network Graphs

Use the graph to read through your texts visually, find relevant excerpts, analyze relations. Slice through your texts to reveal the underlying details.

Fully Shareable

You can link to your graphs, embed them to your site, and export in gexf, png, csv, text formats.

How Text Network Analysis Works

Text network analysis and graph visualization represents a text as a network. The words (or lemmas) are the nodes, their co-occurrences are the relations between them. Represented this way, you can then align the words / nodes that tend to co-occur together as clusters in a 2D plane, which helps you identify the topical clusters, the relations between them, and the most influential nodes. You can also get insight into the structure of a discourse.

Check out the links to our research papers below or this brief explanation of how it works:

1

1. Add Your Text

Start with your own text, e.g. a research paper, a book, a PDF, or your research notes. You can also import Google Scholar search results using InfraNodus import apps.

If you have your data in a spreadsheet, save it as CSV and use InfraNodus CSV import app to visualize this data as a graph.

You can also create the graph manually with a plain text editor and it is the fastest graph creation tool on the market. Use plain text or #hasthags to add nodes, their co-occurrences will be represented as the connections.

2. Text Network Graph Visualization

Text network will then be generated from the text or data you added. The most influential words in the graph (the nodes with the highest betweenness centrality) are shown bigger, while the nodes that occur more often together are aligned into topical clusters in a 2D plane and have distinct colors.

The graph will show you not only the main clusters and the most influential terms, but also the relations and gaps between them.

The topics identified using this approach are much more precise than LDA-based methods. Your text statements will be tagged with those topics, so you can export them for further analysis or machine-learning models.

3. Generate Insight using AI
and Tag Your Text Data

InfraNodus will identify the structural gaps in the network: parts of the graph that could be connected but are not.

Use the graph or our built-in GPT based AI model to bridge these gaps and to connect your ideas in a new way.

You can also export your text statements tagged with the topics that they belong to as a CSV file (with InfraNodus insights) for further analysis or use them as a training data set for your neural network applications.

InfraNodus vs. Other Tools

Traditional tools and AI chatbots are limited by their inability to understand the underlying structure and relationships in your data. InfraNodus provides a unique approach to text analysis that reveals the hidden patterns and insights in your data.

without InfraNodus

AI Chatbots & Analysis Tools

  • Use bulletpoints and long text
  • Provide generic responses
  • Black-box approach hides reasoning
  • No graph, no deeper understanding of context

Traditional Mind Mapping

  • Limited to hierarchical structures
  • Manual creation is slow and prone to bias
  • Does not reveal patterns and relations

Standard Text Analysis

  • Meaningless tag clouds that lack context
  • Only shows positive / negative sentiment
  • Results in tables that hide relationships
  • Limited interactive exploration

Testimonials

InfraNodus is used by researchers, writers, marketing professionals and corporations. Here's what some of our supporters have to say:

Thank you very much for the huge perspectives opened by InfraNodus! A real change of vision and thinking... at least for me.

Didier

Information Specialist

We used the Network Structure and interconnectedness features to assist with analysis of a three year university sustainability plan that crossed faculty and staff. It allowed us to create workgroups that will now do the work. Both features were priceless for developing effective cross constituency system design.

Mary Earick

Associate Research Professor, Plymouth State University

I am using InfraNodus to expose the relationships between characters and problems in the text. I tried to use other text-analysis tools. InfraNodus is — for me — absolutely the best. Thank you for developing a great tool and service.

Technical Support

Check out our support pages, so you can see how to create the new network graphs, how to read and interpret them, how to discover the hidden patterns in your data and share the results of your research.

1. How to Create a New Graph

The most basic way to create a new graph is to use the hashtags. Each hashtag is a node, their co-occurrence is the connection between them. You can also use normal text to build your text graphs automatically. More on Creating the Graphs

2. How to Read and Interpret Network Visualization

Studies have shown that diagrams and especially network representation of data makes you think more of connections in your data. You can identify the main elements as well as the relations between them and — most importantly — discover the gaps in your knowledge using the graphs. More on Reading the Graphs

3. Find the Right Excerpt in Text

Network graphs are great for non-linear reading. Look at the graph, find the part you like, click on the nodes, and you'll see the excerpt of your original data that contains this exact combination. More on Nonlinear Reading

4. How to Import Text and PDF files

You can import and visualize your text files or PDF documents. In order to do that, just upload the file and InfraNodus will do the rest. More on Visualizing PDFs
