Harmony launches on Kaggle! We are proud to have launched our first competition on Kaggle! The primary challenge of this competition is to develop an AI tool or method that can accurately extract questionnaire questions from documents, primarily PDFs. This competition offers a unique opportunity for participants to contribute to the field of natural language processing and document analysis as well as open source for social science while developing solutions that have real-world applications.

This notebook shows how you can use Harmony to find the similarity matrix between two questionnaires: the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and GOASSESS. The Harmony project is an open source data harmonisation project that uses Natural Language Processing to help researchers make better use of existing data from different studies by supporting them with the harmonisation of various measures and items used in different studies. Harmony was developed as a collaboration between Ulster University, University College London, the Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, and Fast Data Science.
