Why are there Topic Concentration Iterations when you disable fitting topic concentration in fitlda?

1 view (last 30 days)
When I run fitlda with 'FitTopicConcentration' set to false, I still get `Topic Concentration Interatons'.
For example:
mdl = fitlda(bag,numTopics,'Verbose',1,'InitialTopicConcentration',50,'FitTopicConcentration',false,'LogLikelihoodTolerance',0,'IterationLimit',20);
gets:
Initial topic assignments sampled in 1.44622 seconds.

Why is the rightmost column not all zeros? What does "topic concentration iterations" mean?

Note, when I run:
mdl = fitlda(bag,numTopics,'Verbose',1,'InitialTopicConcentration',50,'FitTopicConcentration',true,'LogLikelihoodTolerance',0,'IterationLimit',20);
I get:
Initial topic assignments sampled in 1.31452 seconds.
