SUMMARY:SSHOC Workshop: Using Corpora for Implementing Validation. Workflow
 s that combine quantity and quality
DESCRIPTION:Description & aims of the workshop\n\nThe formula to „valida
 te\, validate\, validate“ findings from quantitative corpus analysis (Gr
 immer/Stewart 2013) has become a staple in discussion on the potentials an
 d perils of quantitative approaches to text and is also central to the SS
 HOC project (Social Sciences & Humanities Open Cloud). However\, technic
 ally\, restrictions to implement validation remain quite high. Usually\, d
 edicated resources for setting up and maintaining a server-based environme
 nt with a graphical user interface are still required. Lowering the costs 
 of integrating quantitative and qualitative steps in workflows using corpo
 ra in social science research designs is a major objective of Research Inf
 rastructures such as CLARIN\, and of the polmineR package\, an open sour
 ce R package available at the Comprehensive R Archive Network / CRAN.\n\n
 This workshop will introduce the polmineR package and explore three basic 
 scenarios using it:\n\nValidating the results obtained from dictionary-bas
 ed sentiment analysis and classification\,\nValidating the results of LDA 
 topic modelling\,\nGiving substantial meaning to the results of cooccurren
 ce analyses.\nLecturers\n\nProf. Dr. Andreas Blätte and Christoph Leonh
 ardt\n\nAudience\n\nThe workshop is intended for political and social sci
 entists who are interested in using large text collections in their resea
 rch. No programming skills are needed but a general familiarity with basic
  statistical operations on texts will be helpful. Please bring your own la
 ptop for the hands-on session.\n\nSSHOC involvement\n\nThis workshop addr
 esses the challenges that specific user communities experience when contri
 buting to SSHOC\, the availability of procedures\, tools and services to 
 address these challenges\, and the extent that these procedures\, tools an
 d services are sufficiently applicable for specific user communities\, whi
 ch is one of the major goals of the SSHOC project\, tackled within WP9.\n\

 6. The number of participants of the workshop is limited to 25. We kindly 
 ask you to register as soon as possible. The registration will be closed
  when the limit is reached.\nWorkshop attendance is free of charge. Refre
 shments (coffee breaks and lunch) are provided by the organisers.\nThis wo
 rkshop is co-located with the CLARIN Annual Conference. Workshop participa
 nts who are interested in attending the CLARIN Annual Conference should c
 ontact conference organisers (via events@clarin.eu) to check whether this
  would be feasible.
