Description

In this presentation, I will introduce various aspects of data mining using three open-source technologies: OpenRefine, Rapid Miner, and Voyant Tools. The goal is to better organize and understand data that is freely available or that is provided by your vendor. In order to do so, I demonstrate how to pull relevant data from a website, use text processing operators, and display data using multiple visualization tools. Level: Beginner.

Learning Outcomes

Learn how to grab relevant data from a website with OpenRefine

Learn how to use text processing operators in Rapid Miner

Learn how to use various tools in Voyant to display data analysis

Better understand discovery layer search string data
