Exploring Societal Health Insights: Decentralized Distributed Topic Modeling

The world can manage its paths towards better health thanks to the information, community, and support that medical forums offer in the modern digital environment. Integrating subject modeling on a decentralized platform may be essential and innovative along the way. Topic modeling aids in better understanding user requirements, spotting patterns and trends in the medical sector and taking proactive measures. A centralized platform is typically used to host health forums, but this has a number of disadvantages, including a lack of security and privacy for sensitive personal health information, the potential for bias and censorship to serve the vested interests of the central authority, and it is significantly more expensive to implement and maintain than a decentralized platform. We therefore suggest a medical forum with topic modeling housed on a decentralized platform to enhance the existing state of medical forums so that we can better understand the current topics of interest in the medical sector and act proactively. Topic modeling analysis speeds up reaction time and aids in better understanding community needs. Additionally, we recommend using sentiment analysis to enhance user experience through greater engagement, communication, and early issue detection. By analyzing patient feedback and opinions, healthcare practitioners will be able to enhance their offerings and patient happiness. Utilizing a decentralized network, the forum's host also offers several benefits like privacy, security, affordability, and less bias and restriction. The submitted information is not utilized by a central authority with personal interests.
