Re: [gov2001] Text Section

Thanks to everyone who came out for the text section tonight. Because the files are really large, I've put them in the public folder of my dropbox. You can grab them here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12848660/Bundle.zip Eventually they will be up on my website but until I have time to take care of that I will leave this link active. The zipped folder is approximately 75MB and contains the following: 1) Tonight's Section Slides 2) The code to grab word counts from the NYT API 3) An R package you will need to install locally to use the code above (RJSONIO also available from OmegaHat) 4) Some R code to grab tweets off twitter and do some basic count work with them. 5) A Folder of Materials from a Presentation I gave at University of Washington including: 5a) A Lab Handout walking through three clustering algorithms: k-means, Latent Dirichlet Allocation, Grimmer's Expressed Agenda Model 5b) The slides from my presentation on clustering algorithms 5c) A references list including software, textbooks and articles for text analysis 5d) The files needed to do the lab 5e) The files I used to prep the labs from the raw text 5f) The raw texts The workshop website is here: http://toolsfortext.wordpress.com/ and if you really can't get enough of me talking I think there's a video on there somewhere of me giving the presentation. If you guys have any questions about the material- feel free to shoot me an email. Good luck with the end of semester rush!
