AB - Identifying coherent topics from social media data is challenging due to its informal style, short length, and high noise levels. Additionally, manually processing such data to extract useful information is both time-consuming and resource-intensive given the massive volume of user-generated content online. To address these challenges, this study evaluates the effectiveness of a previously proposed topic refinement method applied to social media data, including YouTube comments and Twitter posts. Prior to analysis, the datasets underwent preprocessing steps involving the removal of spam comments, offensive content, and short or non-informative comments. The refinement method was then applied post-topic extraction to identify and replace misaligned words using GPT and coherence filtering. The experimental results indicate that the method consistently improves coherence scores across all models and both domains, demonstrating its effectiveness and generalizability in enhancing topic quality in real-world social media discourse
