A reminder of what cluster/topic is considered "prevalent"

for any text collection/Startup panel --> Corpus Modeled to Visualization created

Initial commit is in with support in CorpusView. Will also be used for levels.

This is at corpus and cluster level. Requires alteration of python code in twic_mallet_interpret.py

(i.e. the center of the Corpus View panel)

Issue: Mouseover on cluster circle fails to trigger proper event. Only way to trigger mouseover event attached to svg circles is to click on the ClusterCircle. Notably happens on Chrome after a few iterations - could be memory issue. Immediate solution is to restart the browser.

When clicking on corpus view, generates a corpus cluster view if not already visible.

Currently fully functional in Chrome

Issue: Clicking on topic word list and then immediately mousing over/clicking on cluster circle does not reset the TopicBar svg view box

Central topic color in each cluster does not match color of stroke/padding of TextRectangles in TextClusterView

MALLET API appears to be fairly easy to use. I think twic could be benefit in clarity and simplicity by calling directly MALLET TopicTrainer for example, instead of using the command-line interface. It would also help if we eventually want to optimize some of the meta-parameters.

The topic modeler cli is a nice start to get how the object is built and how functions are called.

There is a package called py4j than can be used to interact with Java object in Python
http://py4j.sourceforge.net/

Double click should send cluster to TextClusterView. Single click will freeze highlighting.

Mouseover of opaque underlying bullseye of top N topics interacts with topic bar as well.

Double clicking/drilling down into ClusterCircle populates the TextClusterView. Current implementation fetches one file at a time when the user single clicks on a TextRectangle. Make this behavior overridable so that Voyant can fetch in chunks/all files at once when TextClusterView loads.

Context based panel, information on objects highlighted/represented. Document tiles class/object.

Panel for actions like freeze/unfreeze floating, transitions, etc. panel-based contextual controls
