Text Mining and Analysis Competence Centre

We use text mining and analysis tools to extract information from online data, including traditional or social media, or from large public or proprietary document sets.

What we do

The Text Mining & Analysis Competence Centre is a focal point for text mining at the European Commission. Examples of recent challenges include :

  • using multilingual topic mining to understand citizens’ concerns in public consultations;
  • developing targeted sentiment analysis for news and social media;
  • refining automated event detection from news for crisis situation awareness purposes;
  • and following the propagation of narratives during the Covid-19 crisis
