Description: ==============================================
        gensim -- Python Framework for Topic Modeling
        ==============================================
        
        **Gensim** is a Python framework designed to help make
        the conversion of natural language texts to the Vector Space Model as simple and
        natural as possible.
        
        Gensim contains algorithms for unsupervised learning from raw, unstructured digital texts,
        such as **Latent Semantic Analysis** and **Latent Dirichlet Allocation**.
        These algorithms discover hidden (*latent*) corpus structure.
        Once found, documents can be succinctly expressed in terms of this structure, queried for topical similarity and so on.
        
        If the previous paragraphs left you confused, you can first read more about the `Vector
        Space Model <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_space_model>`_ and `unsupervised
        document analysis <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_semantic_indexing>`_ at Wikipedia.
        
        .. note::
        
        Gensim's target audience is the NLP research community and interested general public;
        gensim is not meant to be a production tool for commercial environments.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        gensim depends on NumPy and Scipy, two Python packages for scientific computing.
        You need to have them installed prior to using gensim; if you don't have them yet,
        you can get them from <http://www.scipy.org/Download>.
        
        The simple way to install `gensim` is::
        
        sudo easy_install gensim
        
        Or, if you have instead downloaded and unzipped the `source tar.gz <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/gensim>`_ package,
        you'll need to run::
        
        python setup.py test
        sudo python setup.py install
        
        
        For alternative modes of installation (without root priviledges, development
        installation), see the `documentation <http://nlp.fi.muni.cz/projekty/gensim/install.html>`_.
        
        This version has been tested under Python 2.5, but should run on any 2.5 <= Python < 3.0.
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        
        Manual for the gensim package is available as `HTML <http://nlp.fi.muni.cz/projekty/gensim/>`_
        and as `PDF <http://nlp.fi.muni.cz/projekty/gensim/gensim_manual.pdf>`_. It
        contains a walk-through of all the features and a complete reference section.
        It is also included in the source package.
