Below you find an overview of thesis projects of recent and soon to be graduates from our new Research Master’s in Human Language Technology. The first students of the master’s in Text Mining just started their thesis work together with companies and organizations and will finish by the end of June. In the mean time, have a look at the projects they have worked on in the course Text Mining Domains.

Some theses result in papers published at conferences of workshops. Have a look at our publications.

Master Text Mining

Text Mining Domains projects:

In this course, students apply text mining techniques to a particular domain, such as historic, scientific or medical texts or a particular topic. You can have a look at their code and reports by licking on the links:

• Tracking UN Sustainable Development Goals in text
• Medical Text Mining (automatic Participant-Intervention-Outcome extraction)
• Mining Dutch Historical Data

Master Human Language Technology:
