FuzzyTM is a Python library that trains fuzzy topic models (FSA, FSAW, FSAV, FSAE) and produces topic embeddings for downstream tasks; it implements LSA/SVD pipelines, fuzzy clustering, sparse document–term matrices and save/load with pickle because runs are non‑deterministic. Experiments run each algorithm 10 times, report a coherence of ~0.53 on M10, and handle corpora with ~90,000 unique words and ~4,500 documents (≈300 million dense cells) using sparse arrays for speed. FSAW is the highlighted model.
