Title of Study/Project:

List of team members and their affiliation

  • Matthew Brook O'Donnell - University of Michigan
  • Clare Llewellyn - JSTOR
  • Michael Krot - JSTOR

Procedural Outline of Study/Project

0. Newly developed API and user interface at JSTOR may help to better define development and deployment scenarios, preliminary and currently being evaluated.

a. Research Question/Purpose of Study

We have identified 2 areas that we are interested in:

1) Creation of pre-canned  workflows that are useful to linguists

2) Creation of workflows that can tell us information about a specific JSTOR article, for example reading ease or grade level.

b. Data Source

JSTOR articles

c. Analysis Tools

For the Tools for Linguists we have divided the analysis tools into 4 sets. We may produce the data sets externally from SEASR and feed them in from that point. The sets are:

1. Pick a data set or use predefined data set


2. Pick a workflow
    - show me words counts
    - Show me word lists
    - show me ngrams
    - show me a snippet of context around keyword (concordancer)
    - show me all words in the paragraph surrounding the keyword


3. Perform a data transformation
    - selection
    - noun phrases
    - data mining
    - keyness extraction
    - compare with another data set

4. visualizations
    - tag cloud
    - other visualizations

Activity Timeline or Milestones

Test case and implementation of a web service deployment as peer to the java application services available in the new API developed at JSTOR. Michael is undertaking the modification of a sample flow (engineered for Zotero interface) to acquire data from internal JSTOR resources and will be determining how SEASR and API can interface to provide JSTOR user front-end with outputs directly or indirectly produced by SEASR data flows.

Report or Project Outcome(s)

  • Presentation at the SEASR Follow-up Workshop in U. Maryland - June 22, 2009.

Ideas on what your team needs from SEASR staff to help you achieve your goal.

We'd like further information on running a workflow without the work bench. How we can interact with a flow from a webpage and other means.
