I am actively learning Python and can currently read it 😊 But that would be my preferred language, as it will be easier to incorporate to existing systems.

Hi Athina,
Voyant is a good tool for getting started (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__voyant-2Dtools.org_&d=DwIFAg&c=QX2OfGk7aRC3kh1nmtbeQQ&r=RXIBTdlDWSmqO0o3MLQ-BLQUZFYg5gjAQISlzYkkw98&m=MkGsEIet2Ih0O9Pd3Um5PPd-P2qemcFyIudflLgrLNs&s=XY6F0_wEoBE3N6uqaic_MAAl5N9yjkXB1n8UZYMjqrQ&e=  ). Do you program in Python or R? I have some additional suggestions if so.

Christina

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Keyword Extraction from Text

Hi everyone,

I'm starting to think around a project that would involve key terms from other types of text (transcripts, captions, documents). I'm basically trying to build a tool that I can use to extra key terms from larger strings of text, i.e. pull out the important words from a larger sentence.

Does anyone have recommendations for tools that already exist out there?

Thanks,
Athina

PS- I'm thinking specifically about state K-12 educational standards, if anyone wants to talk more specifically with me.
