Abstract

The paper proposes topic modeling as an efficient method for an exploratory literature review for management research. The model has been built to analyze research contributions of Game Theory predominant in the area of management research. The study primarily caters to 2 objectives, first, to build a topic model using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) method. Secondly, the study presents one of the optimization methods to build the improved topic model. The results for both models are compared in terms of statistical measures (coherence scores in this case), semantic coherence, and interpretability. A considerable improvement from the base model is observed in the optimized version of the base model. Solution concept of Nash Equilibrium, Market games and Market competition, Allocation games, and Network games are found to be predominant sub-themes in the extracted topics.
