Filmade presentationer
Vill du skapa dig en bild av hur språkteknologi kan berika forskningen inom humaniora och samhällsvetenskap?
Konferensen "From text to data – new ways of reading" hölls den 7–8 februari 2019 på Kungliga biblioteket (KB) i Stockholm. Konferensen – ett samarrangemang av Swe-Clarin, KB och Riksarkivet – syftade till att visa på potentialen i språkteknologin för textanalys. Likaså hur minnesinstitutioner (arkiv, bibliotek och museum) kan stödja nyskapande forskning genom att göra material tillgängliga digitalt.
På "From text to data" föreläste flera namnkunniga forskare i anknytning till dessa teman. Presentationerna filmades och du kan ladda ner och titta på dem genom att klicka på titlarna.
