摘要:

在这篇文章中,我们描述了我们的经验与计算文本分析。我们希望实现三个主要目标。首先,我们的目标是阐明一些棘手的问题,这些问题并不总是处于计算文本分析方法讨论的最前沿。第二,我们希望提供一套最佳实践,用于处理浓厚的社会和文化概念。我们的指导是基于我们自己的经验,因此本质上是不完美的。尽管如此,鉴于我们学科背景和研究实践的多样性,我们希望捕捉一系列的想法,并确定将引起许多人共鸣的共性。这就引出了我们的最终目标:帮助促进跨学科合作。跨学科的见解和伙伴关系对于实现任何涉及社会和文化概念的计算文本分析的全部潜力至关重要,我们越能够弥合这些分歧,我们相信我们的工作就越富有成效。

英文摘要:

In this article we describe our experiences with computational text analysis. We hope to achieve three primary goals. First, we aim to shed light on thorny issues not always at the forefront of discussions about computational text analysis methods. Second, we hope to provide a set of best practices for working with thick social and cultural concepts. Our guidance is based on our own experiences and is therefore inherently imperfect. Still, given our diversity of disciplinary backgrounds and research practices, we hope to capture a range of ideas and identify commonalities that will resonate for many. And this leads to our final goal: to help promote interdisciplinary collaborations. Interdisciplinary insights and partnerships are essential for realizing the full potential of any computational text analysis that involves social and cultural concepts, and the more we are able to bridge these divides, the more fruitful we believe our work will be.
