Term associations are presented by applying the factor analysis based model: (1) the top 10 term associations are shown among term associations generated by the proposed approach; (2) term count are computed from the top 1000 documents of the baseline; (3) the communality of each term association is calculated by the factor analysis based model; (4) the rank of term associations is given by their communalities.
