ProQuest Enhances TDM Studio With a Visualization Interface
ProQuest’s TDM Studio introduced a new visualization interface that allows researchers with no coding experience to do text and data mining (TDM). It will help students across all academic disciplines analyze large datasets to find trends and patterns. Visualizations can be created in just minutes, and an interactive display feature shows changes over time and in specific geographic locations.Marco Duranti, senior history lecturer at the University of Sydney, which has been piloting the visualization features, says, “The tool transformed how my students and I approached our exploration of human rights controversies in a historical perspective. It illuminated not only the transformational impact of data science on our field, but also the value of combining computational analyses with traditional humanities approaches.” For more information, read the press release.
