Abstract

We explore the use of natural language processing technologies to assist in content and communication analysis, and argue that there is significant synergy between the goals of this social science analysis and the aims and capabilities of computational linguistics research. We discuss specific technologies that can be deployed for use in social science analysis, and describe the key components of a proposed system in which the use of such technologies can result in a significant benefit to the social science researcher interested in analyzing and formalizing the meaning in documents.
