- Machine Learning
- Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- Statistics
Research Data Services can help you create accurate, reliable, and insightful data models for your research questions.
Text Analysis
Text Analysis
You can use text analysis to search, manipulate, and explore a large body of text-based information, such as multiple works by a particular author or an aggregate of social media posts. This technique allows you to answer questions on how texts are connected, what sentiments they contain, and when key terms change within a collection.
Visualization
Visualization
Unlock the storytelling potential of your data! Visualization is a powerful means of exploring, understanding, and sharing data. It transforms complex data into intuitive, insightful, and visually engaging representations. Some visualization techniques include:
- Data Storytelling
- Mapping
- Reporting & Dashboarding
