SUMMARY:Data analysis with Swiss-AL for textual data
DESCRIPTION:Language data from public communication is becoming increasingly valuable – not only for (applied) linguistics\, but also for disciplines such as the humanities\, social sciences\, psychology\, and communication and media studies. Open access to corpora of public discourse is therefore essential for advancing research across fields. Swiss-AL is a key resource in this area: it offers multilingual corpora of Swiss public communication\, including journalistic media\, parliamentary transcripts\, and press releases and news items from a broad spectrum of organizations and institutions in politics\, the economy\, science\, and civil society. Swiss-AL is part of Switzerland’s linguistic research infrastructure and a core component of CLARIN-CH. It is developed at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) by the ZHAW Digital Discourse Lab\, one of five entities of national infrastructure situated within the CLARIN-CH ecosystem. \n \nIn this training session\, participants will get to know the new Swiss-AL Workbench – a platform designed to give researchers direct access to the Swiss-AL corpora and to support a variety of data-driven research methods\, including topic modeling\, word embeddings\, distributional analysis\, context exploration\, and frequency analysis. The session will feature a hands-on introduction to the Workbench\, highlight common use cases and areas of application\, and provide practical guidance for incorporating Swiss-AL into your own research. \nSpeaker: Julia Krasselt \nPlease note that the Zoom link will be sent to participants upon registration: 📝 Register now \n\nDownload or watch the recording and slides of the session:\nRecording\nSlides
