arXiv:2603.10619v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The recent success of large pre-trained language models (PLMs) has motivated their integration into topic modeling. However, PLM-augmented topic models differ from classical co-occurrence models such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) not only in performance, but also in the type of semantic structure they capture. We formalize this distinction along two psycholinguistic axes: thematic relatedness (dog/bone) and taxonomic similarity (dog/wolf). To measure both axes over topic words, we construct a large synthetic benchmark of word pairs usi
