Abstract: The Lampung University repository system is a repository of data related to study, community service, and other scientific works, currently has 37242 documents accessible through repository.lppm.unila.ac.id. Despite the amount of data, its optimal use as an information retrieval remains unrealized, hindering the effective promotion of Lampung University's scientific publication excellence. Recognizing the limitations of existing information retrieval systems that are limited to specific methods for topic identification through clustering, this study aims to develop a retrieval system for Lampung University's repository using Vector Space Model (VSM), K-Means and Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) that generates clusters and study expertise at the level of study program, faculty and Lampung University. The methodology includes data collection, preprocessing, modeling, evaluation and system deployment. The results show that the number of clusters obtained for the university level is 7 clusters, for the faculty level are 6, 7, 8 and 10 clusters, and for the program level are 3 to 5 clusters. In addition, the finding topic identification indicate that the expertise topics at Lampung University, which are agriculture, soil, education, plants, learning, society, Lampung. This study contributes to optimizing the information retrieval system, promoting academic excellence, and advancing the understanding of study expertise at Lampung University.
