In TAPoR („Text Analysis Portal for Research“), das mittlerweile in der dritten Version online ist, werden Tools für das Text-Retrieval und die Text-Analyse gesammelt.
Die Informationen aus dem früheren „DIRT“ Directory („Digital Research Tools“) wurden in die Sammlung mit aufgenommen.
TAPoR wird betreut von der University of Alberta, der McMaster University, der Canada Foundation for Innovation, von Compute Canada sowie vom Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
TAPoR is a gateway to the tools used in sophisticated text analysis and retrieval. Please contribute!
With TAPoR 3.0 you can:
- Discover text manipulation, analysis, and visualization tools
- Discover historic tools
- Read tool reviews and recommendations
- Learn about papers, articles and other sources about specific tools
- Tag, comment, rate, and review collaboratively
- Browse lists of related tools in order to discover tools more easily
TAPoR was originally created to be a directory only of tools used for text analysis. TAPoR has evolved to its current iteration, TAPoR 3.0 to include a far greater range of tools including code snippets that can do the work of tools. In 2018 TAPoR absorbed the DiRT project (Digital Research Tools) and now includes tools that work on non-textual data and tools that provide services used by digital humanists. This evolution largely reflects that of the field of digital humanities.
With the integration of DiRT Directory, TAPoR has made use of the TaDiRAH Goals & Methods tags, to better cateogrize the tools.
