+    (description
+     "Learn vector representations of sentences, paragraphs or documents by
+using the Paragraph Vector algorithms, namely the distributed bag of
+words (PV-DBOW) and the distributed memory (PV-DM) model.  Top2vec finds
+clusters in text documents by combining techniques to embed documents and
+words and density-based clustering.  It does this by embedding documents in
+the semantic space as defined by the doc2vec algorithm.  Next it maps these
+document embeddings to a lower-dimensional space using the Uniform Manifold
+Approximation and Projection (UMAP) clustering algorithm and finds dense areas
+in that space using a Hierarchical Density-Based Clustering
+technique (HDBSCAN).  These dense areas are the topic clusters which can be
+represented by the corresponding topic vector which is an aggregate of the
+document embeddings of the documents which are part of that topic cluster.  In
+the same semantic space similar words can be found which are representative of
+the topic.")
