A hybrid of fuzzy c-means clustering and Latent Dirichlet Allocation for analysing philanthropic corporate social responsibility activities / Nik Siti Madihah Nik Mangsor

To date, philanthropic corporate social responsibility (PCSR) activities are ad-hoc in nature, where assistance is provided more to basic needs with very little attention to activities that can contribute to eradicating poverty. Based on previous related literatures, it is found that there is no pro...
