Quantitative Analysis IV

POL 574

Info tab content
Course introduces students to quantitative analysis of text from a social science perspective. Course is applied in nature, and while we give some theoretical treatment of the topics at hand, the primary aim is to help students understand the types of questions we can ask with text, and how to go about answering them. With that in mind, we first explain how texts may be modeled as quantitative entities and discuss how they might be compared. We then move to both supervised and unsupervised techniques in some detail, before dealing with some `special topics' that arise in particular lines of social science research.
