Workshop “Modeling and processing textual data in Python”.
Yann Audin (Phd candidate in digital humanities at the Université de Montréal and project leader at the Canada Research Chair in Digital Textualities) will be leading a series of three workshops on automatic language processing.
During this workshop, participants will model a concept of their choice, and explore how Python's limits, affordances and structures influence their reasoning. They will also discover how to use Python libraries to take advantage of other people's programming efforts, specifically for automatic language processing.
Python is used in automatic language processing, programming education, artificial intelligence, scientific programming, web development and many other fields. This so-called high-level language is particularly readable by humans, which contributes to its popularity. Python is distributed under a very permissive license, and is supported by a strong and vast community of practice that develops libraries for almost any situation.
This workshop will take place on November 4 2024 at CRIHN, room C-8132, 3150 rue Jean Brillant, Université de Montréal from 10:30 a.m. to noon.
Downloading a recent version of Anaconda is recommended, but not necessary.
