NOTE: This event is availble to all University of California affiliates and ADHHI scholars. Please register using your university email address if you have one. 

This workshop will introduce topic modeling, a common natural language processing technique used to identify topics within a collection of documents . Participants will use Python, scikit-learn and Gensim to identify hidden patterns and topic clusters within a series of wide-ranging lectures. This workshop will also review methods to read and analyze transcripts from YouTube videos.

This workshop is part of a broader series covering programming for the digital humanities, with an emphasis on document and text analysis. Although these workshops do not have any formal prerequisites, some background in Python and SQL would be helpful. These workshops will build on material from previous sessions, so it is recommended but not requred to take the workshops in sequence.
