For this assignment, you will use the same data as the Factor Analysis assignment to discover the important topics in U.S. Governors’ tweets about the pandemic. The dataframe for the assignment includes four columns - State, Name, and Party of Governor plus the Text of their tweets. The Text column is the one you should process and analyze.
Load the libraries + functions
Load all the libraries or functions that you will use to for the rest of the assignment. It is helpful to define your libraries and functions at the top of a report, so that others can know what they need for the report to compile correctly.
Load the Python libraries or functions that you will use for that section.

You can watch here: https://t.co/TneBva6CeR It is important for Arkansans to stay home if possible as we work to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. When it is necessary to be out of the home, be mindful in public spaces. Keep a safe distance of at least six feet from others. There is no need for crowding. In order for us to be successful in Arkansas in slowing the upward trend line of COVID-19, the public needs to abide by the guidance of the Arkansas Department of Health. @ADHPIO guidelines and directives can be found here: https://t.co/tFzZuRkedi I am grateful for our federal delegations communication and support theyve given the state, especially through the passage of the COVID-19 relief bill by the Senate. This bill provides confidence to Arkansans whose employment or small business has been affected by the outbreak. (4/4) The plan also proposes an additional payment of $250 a week for non-physician direct care workers and $500 a week for non-physician direct care workers who work in a facility where COVID-19 is present. Read more about this initiative here: https://t.co/rolC0F71Zr (1/4) Today I announced a $116M initiative that directly addresses the COVID-19 crisis and the burden on our rural hospitals and other health care providers.

If you are able, please consider donating blood as we face the COVID-19 public health emergency. @ABIblood (2/3) Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the changed individual tax filing deadline, the official state revenue forecast has been lowered by $353.1M. This necessitates a special session of the General Assembly to address this shortfall w/AR's $173M unallocated surplus from last year.

Clean surfaces that are frequently touched, avoid meetings that require close proximity, and post the symptoms of COVID-19: fever, cough, and shortness of breath. (1/4) As of today, there are a total of 165 positive COVID-19 cases in AR. This is the largest increase of cases in a 24-hour period that weve seen so far, and this number reflects the increase in @ADHPIO testing capacity. As COVID-19 spreads, it is important for Arkansans to follow the CDCs guidelines to keep themselves and their families safe. I encourage the people of our state to practice the CDCs current recommendation to avoid social gatherings of 10+ to help mitigate the virus.

You can watch here: https://t.co/WRyqkeXPeQ (1/3) Today I announced that we have a total of 118 positive COVID-19 cases in Arkansas. Based on what we have seen in other states, Arkansas is likely to reach the peak of COVID-19 cases in 6 to 8 weeks. We project that at the peak there will be 1,000 patients hospitalized. Social distancing does not have to mean staying in the home, although this is an effective way to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Walking, hiking, fishing, and other outdoor activities are all consistent with social distancing practices.

Arkansas businesses can follow these guidelines to ensure the safety of their employees and the continuation of their operations. https://t.co/bmIUdr9f8V My team of top health care professionals from @ADHPIO, @uamshealth, and other agencies and hospitals from across the state have worked hard to keep me informed of the COVID-19 outbreak as it develops. Here are some guidelines Arkansans can follow to stay safe and healthy. https://t.co/245GhOgm2H According to the CDC, the best way to prevent the spread of COVID-19 is to avoid being exposed to the virus. COVID-19 is thought to spread between people within 6 feet of each other. By practicing social distancing, we can help mitigate the outbreak in our state. The rising number of positive COVID-19 cases in Arkansas reflect the additional testing capacity that we now have. We want that number to rise. That means we are locating and isolating cases across the state that otherwise would go undetected, which slows the spread of the virus. In this weeks radio address, I discuss the executive order I issued last week to expand telemedicine during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Interpret your topics and compare to MEM themes with PCA. Explain the results from your analysis (at least 5 sentences).
ANSWER: The LDA fit alpha value is lower (0.02718556), it indicates higher percentages of documents that were classified to one single topic. Coming to the entropy value of LDA_fit, it is around 0.13796, which is less than 1 and lower compared to the others. This indicates that there is one topic which is used heavily in all the documents. Clearly both the graphs the one created using python , the one created using R both show covid-19 as predominant topic. The graphs also show that the topics are not evenly spread.
