The purpose of this study is to analyze the seasonal issues using the local newspaper articles with the keyword beach from 2004 to 2017. Topic modeling and Time series regression analysis based on open source programs were performed for analysis. Topic modeling results showed 35 topics in spring, 47 topics in summer, 36 topics in autumn and 35 topics in winter. The common themes were 'beaches', 'festivals and events', 'accident and environmental issues', 'tourism', 'development and sale', 'administration and policy' and 'weather'. Time series regression analysis showed in the spring, 5 Hot-Topics and 2 Cold-Topic were found out of the 35 topics. In the summer, 6 Hot-Topics and 3 Cold-Topic were found out of the 47 topics. In the autumn, 4 Hot-Topics and 3 Cold-Topic were found out of the 36 topics. In the winter, 3 Hot-Topics and 3 Cold-Topic were found out of the 35 topics. And for each season, topics that do not fall into the Hot-Topic and Cold-Topic are classified as Neutral-Topic. In this study if seasonal uses are different such as beaches are deemed that seasonal topic modeling for analysis of regional issues will yield more useful results and enable detailed diagnosis.

The purpose of this study is to understand the trends and changes of the articles publishing the Journal of the Korean Association for Science Education(JKASE) in the past forty-four years. To this end, Latent Dirichlet Allocation(LDA) topic modeling analysis was performed on a total of 2,115 English abstracts of papers published in the JKASE from 1978 to 2021. As a result of LDA topic modeling analysis, a total of 23 topics were extracted, and each topic was presented with its related keywords and articles. Next, in order to examine how these topics have changed over time, we visualized the average weights of each topic for a 4-year cycle by using heatmaps. The topics that have risen or fallen were identified. The results of this study provide new insights into science education research in Korea in terms of revealing not only traditional research topics that have been consistently studied but also the topics that have changed in response to the development of educational philosophy or research methods, social or policy demands related to science education.

The objective of this study is to examine the trends in information systems research. The abstracts of 1,245 articles were extracted from three leading Korean journals published between 2002 and 2016: Asia Pacific Journal of Information Systems, Information Systems Review, and The Journal of Information Systems. Time series analysis and topic modeling methods were implemented. The topic modeling results showed that the research topics were mainly "systems implementation", "communication innovation", and "customer loyalty". The time series regression results indicated that "customer satisfaction", "communication innovation", "information security", and "personal privacy" were hot topics, and on the other hand, "system implementation" and "web site" were the least popular. This study also provided suggestions for future research.

To address environmental challenges and improve energy efficiency, the adoption of electric vehicles has led to a surge in related research. However, to comprehensively understand the research trends within the field of electric vehicles, it is necessary to systematically analyze vast amounts of data. This study systematically analyzed research trends in the field of electric vehicles and identified key research topics through LDA topic modeling, based on 36,519 papers related to electric vehicles collected from the SCIE database. The data analysis revealed a total of 10 major topics, of which three were identified as hot topics showing an upward trend: Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure, Energy and Environmental Policy, and Optimization and Algorithms. Conversely, five topics were identified as cold topics exhibiting a downward trend: Battery Temperature and Cooling, Battery Materials and Chemistry, Motor and Mechanical Design, Control Strategies and Systems, and Battery Components and Materials. This study provides basic data for understanding the current research trends in electric vehicles and offers valuable information for researchers in selecting research topics related to electric vehicles.

The purpose of this study is to explain and predict trends the AI development process based on AI technology patents (total) and AI reporting frames in major newspapers. To that end, a summary of South Korean and U.S. technology patents filed over the past nine years and the AI (Artificial Intelligence) news text of major domestic newspapers were analyzed. In this study, Topic Modeling and Time Series Return Analysis using Big Data were used, and additional network agenda correlation and regression analysis techniques were used. First, the results of this study were confirmed in the order of artificial intelligence and algorithm 5G (hot AI technology) in the AI technical patent summary, and in the news report, AI industrial application and data analysis market application were confirmed in the order, indicating the trend of reporting on AI's social culture. Second, as a result of the time series regression analysis, the social and cultural use of AI and the start of industrial application were derived from the rising trend topics. The downward trend was centered on system and hardware technology. Third, QAP analysis using correlation and regression relationship showed a high correlation between AI technology patents and news reporting frames. Through this, AI technology patents and news reporting frames have tended to be socially constructed by the determinants of media discourse in AI development.

This study explores shifts in real estate investment sentiment using media reports from 2012 to 2022, segmenting the market dynamics into three distinct cycles based on housing and land transaction indices. Leveraging 54 BigKinds media sources, we investigates 3,387 headlines and 8,544 body texts using LDA topic modeling. The results show that the first cycle (2012-2015 ) centered on apartment pre-sales, where policy changes influenced sentiment but did not consistently affect investment decisions. The second cycle (2016-2018) was characterized by interest rate hikes and rising property prices in Seoul, resulting in significant fluctuations in transaction volumes. The third cycle (2019-2022) encompassed the effects of COVID-19, market instability, and policy failures, leading to distorted and weakened investment sentiment. Each cycle demonstrated that policies, interest rates, and economic events significantly shaped investor sentiment, as reflected in media reports.

The study is based on the assumption that the trend of phenomena and trends in research are contextually consistent. Therefore the purpose of this study is to explore the trend of dance through the subject analysis of the Korean creative dance study by utilizing text mining. Thus, 1,291 words were analyzed in the 616 journal title, which were established on the paper search website. The collection, refining and analysis of the data were all R 3.6.0 SW. According to the study, keywords representing the times were frequently used before the 2000s, but Korean creative dance research types were also found in terms of education and physical training. Second, the frequency of keywords related to the dance troupe's performance was high after the 2000s, but it was confirmed that Choi Seung-hee was still in an important position in the study of Korean creative dance. Third, an analysis of the overall research subjects of the Korean creative dance study showed that the research on 'Art of Choi Seung-hee in the modern era' was the highest proportion. Fourth, the Hot Topics, which are rising as of 2000, appeared as 'the performance activities of the National Dance Company' and 'the choreography expression and utilization of traditional dance'. However, since the recent trend of the National Dance Company's performance is advocating 'modernization based on tradition', it has been confirmed that the trend of Korean creative dance since the 2000s has been focused on the use of traditional dance motifs. Fifth, the Cold Topic, which has been falling as of 2000, has been shown to be a study of 'dancing expressions by age'. It was judged that interest in research also decreased due to the tendency to mix various dance styles after the establishment of the genre of Korean creative dance.
