SHORT DESCRIPTION

[[has description::Quote from the about page (12/2016): Gensim started off as a collection of various Python scripts for the Czech Digital Mathematics Library dml.cz in 2008, where it served to generate a short list of the most similar articles to a given article (gensim = “generate similar”). I also wanted to try these fancy “Latent Semantic Methods”, but the libraries that realized the necessary computation were not much fun to work with.

By now, gensim is—to my knowledge—the most robust, efficient and hassle-free piece of software to realize unsupervised semantic modelling from plain text. It stands in contrast to brittle homework-assignment-implementations that do not scale on one hand, and robust java-esque projects that take forever just to run “hello world”.]]
