Introduction to Text Mining for Humanists

About this event

This workshop will introduce basic text mining methods, tools and applications for humanists, including Voyant and MALLET. Also referred to as text analysis in Digital Humanities, text mining is a way of distant-reading digital text files through word frequency, context, proximities and lexical preferences, in order to facilitate traditional close readings of texts. No prior humanities computing experience is required. Click the "Link" below to register for this workshop.
