TAPoR Text Analysis Portal for Research

For researchers who work with text

Find a text analysis tool that fits the work.

TAPoR catalogues concordancers, annotators, topic models, stylometry packages, and visualization environments. Every record notes the platform, the license, and what the tool is actually good for.

  • Platform, license, and method on every record
  • Reviews from people who teach with the tools
  • Lists assembled around a course or a corpus

TreeTagger

The TreeTagger is a program developed by Helmut Schmid at the University of Stuttgart (now at the University of München), for part-of-speech tagging and lemmatization. Language models (known as “parameters”, file extension .par) are supplied on the TreeTagger webpage for using the program with texts in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Bulgarian, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, Galician, Latin, Mongolian, Polish, Slovak and Swahili, and models for some other languages are available from sites linked to the TreeTagger webpage. For a language for which no model exists, it is necessary to hand-tag some text, and then run a training program (provided with the TreeTagger) to create the model.

UDPipe

UDPipe is a trainable pipeline for tokenization, tagging, lemmatization and dependency parsing of CoNLL-U files. UDPipe is language-agnostic and can be trained given annotated data in CoNLL-U format. Trained models are provided for nearly all UD treebanks. UDPipe is available as a binary for Linux/Windows/OS X, as a library for C++, Python, Perl, Java, C#, and as a web service. Third-party R CRAN package also exists.

VAnnotatoR

VAnnotatoR is a system that massively supports the annotation of multimedia, multimodal networks of linguistic and object-related data in virtual 3D environments. VAnnotatoR allows for segmenting and linking texts and images with other multimedia, multimodal data to ultimately create spatial hypertexts. It can be used to support concrete technical applications, e.g. the reconstruction of 3D scenes from texts as a preparatory step for the training of Text2Scene systems, or for applications in the digital humanities, such as the spatial reconstruction and linking of historical scenes or biographies with corresponding media content, such as images or 3D reconstructions of historical buildings. The entire system is interactively accessible with VR glasses in Virtual Reality (VR) and can be controlled and experienced accordingly. VAnnotatoR uses TextAnnotator as technological backbone and thus all its functions for annotation, task management, annotation evaluation as well as for collaborative and simultaneous processing of resources. Furthermore, VAnnotatoR uses TextImager to benefit from its NLP routines for automatic text analysis. VAnnotatoR is implemented on the basis of Unity3D and OpenVR and therefore runs with both systems and several VR glasses – it was tested on Oculus Rift, Oculus Rift S, Oculus Quest, HTC Vive and HTC Vive Cosmos under Windows 10. A demonstration of its usage can be found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBUg8mHT0iI

VisualEyes

VisualEyes is web-based authoring tool for creating dynamic visualizations offered by the University of Virginia. It can be used to combine images, maps, charts, video and research data into a single visualization. It is comprehensively documented, including a reference guide to its XML structure and scripting, and to structuring data for inclusion.
