Description
Hello,
First of all thank you for publishing this powerful library!
My question is about the output barplot of the visualize_distribution() function. I am call it for a document that has been take the topic "-1" but the topic "-1" doesn't shown in the barplot. A different topic seems to have the highest probability instead of the "-1" topic. My thought is that maybe the chart shows the probabilities for the rest of the topics (those that are not "-1") but I didn't read that in the function documentation so I thought I'd write it here....

Start by reading the visualize_distribution() function and its documentation, then reproduce the reported output with a document assigned to topic "-1". Determine whether the barplot correctly represents the noise/outlier topic or whether the behavior needs correction or clearer documentation.
