I am really excited in applying these methods to my textual data and it appears to be working really well, however I have a question regarding the clustering - how does it decide on the number of clusters ?

It selects the number of groups that minimizes the description length of the data — i.e. how many bits are necessary to describe according the model being fitted. More information are given in the paper. If you are interested, you can read more here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.00183
