You are warmly invited to this week’s research process seminar. Hosted by FMC but open to all staff and research students.
It tackles the practical challenges in applying computational approaches to studying digital news content. While the context is of media content, the process is one that relates to several disciplines.
A roadmap for building a corpus of African digital news content – by Dr Dani Madrid-Morales (University of Sheffield)
This talk will detail the challenges in conducting research on digital African news content, and will describe the process followed by the speaker in developing the African Digital News Corpus (ADNC), a multilingual live corpus of news content by African media. The focus will be on the process of developing a custom-built scraper to gather relevant news content, the difficulties posed by automating news data collection, and some of the possible applications of computational approaches to studying digital news content.
