Visualization

Discursis

Discursis is a tool for analyzing text-based natural language with a focus on sequential analysis. It is particularly desgined to work with texts that have an internal temporal structure, such as a transcribed conversation. For each text, it generates a statistics-based internal language model and applies tagging to each temporal unit detected. The model and tagging are then used as the basis for an interactive visualization which permits examination at a various levels of granularity, ranging from a whole-text to a unit-by-unit level; it can also show topic usage patterns within the text. Users must purchase a license; both student and academic trial licenses are available.

Visualization

DocuBurst

DocuBurst is a free web-based visualization tool for exploring the contents of a text. Visitors can upload their own text or view those provided by others. DocuBurst presents an interactive chart called a ‘radial sunburst’ diagram which organizes the nouns extracted from the user-supplied text based on their meaning, and colours them based on frequency, revealing common themes in the text. The visualization also shows the proper nouns (e.g. character names) in a linked word cloud. The visualization may be zoomed, filtered, or refocused to target types of words of interest (e.g. “animal” words or “feeling” words). The visualization also provides a comparison tool to contrast word use across two documents. DocuBurst views can be bookmarked, annotated, shared, and embedded in your own website.
