Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of Ontario Institute of Technology
$100,000.00
Linguistic Information Visualization
FY 2019-20
Summary
Language is used to communicate, make business decisions, and understand our society. As our reliance on language data becomes more prevalent, the need for methods to sift through large collections of documents in order to detect and understand relevant patterns is becoming more urgent. The research program in Linguistic Information Visualization will combine emerging interaction technologies, such as pens, touch screens, and virtual reality, with visualization techniques to create novel ways to engage with and explore language data. Software developed will bring the right data into view at the right time, reducing the expense and effort of making data-driven decisions.
