We have attended MethodsCon: Futures in Manchester, run by the National Centre for Research Methods on 11 and 12 September 2024 to present Harmony, the NLP and AI tool we have been developing for researchers in social science, funded by Wellcome and the Economic and Social Research Council. The events took place at The Edwardian Manchester.
The first event was a workshop on 11 September:
15:30-15:45 Spotlight 14: Harmony: a Natural Processing Approach to Data Discoverability and Harmonisation
We presented in the workshop: FDS 3 and Corpus-assisted discourse studies on 12 September, with events titled:
A.) Harmony: A natural language processing approach to data discovery and harmonisation.
B.) Corpus-assisted discourse studies: An introduction to a mixed methodology.
Help us design the next phase of Harmony and win up to £300 in vouchers! Search and Results UX/UI Challenge Harmony is a platform for researchers to help them discover and compare complex meta-data across different academic studies. The project is a collaboration between University College London (UCL), The University of Ulster, and Fast Data Science and has been funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and by Wellcome as part of the Wellcome Data Prize in Mental Health.
It’s all over! The Matching Challenge is now officially closed. Thank you to everyone who took part. The wait is over! We have now closed the Matching Challenge which was hosted on DOXA AI. Over the course of the competition we saw a total of 26 participants with 14 finalists making it onto the scoreboard. The final days were tense with many participants improving on their scores, submitting different methods and swapping places at the top of the scoreboard.
