The project, conducted in collaboration with Marta Severo and Antonin Segault, professor and lecturer at the University of Paris Nanterre, focuses on a different theme (“imaginary bodies”, Europe, Sport…). Using data sets, some of which have been processed by the AI tools of the INA’s Research Department (transcription, speech and face detection, similarity recognition, etc.), participants must produce analyses that renew the scientific exploitation of heritage collections. During 4 consecutive days, organized in groups and in a “Sprint” format, the participants alternated work sessions between the Learning Lab of the University of Nanterre and the INA thèque.
Key concepts
Work in groups, data
Studies materials
Set of data in the Inathèque’s holdings (complete perimeter of radio, television, and the Web, and this, since the origin of each of the media, i.e. 22 million hours of radio and television, 60 million documentary records, 118 billion archived Web URLs, almost 3 billion social network account publications)
Type of delivrables
Presentations made by groups of students from the data sets they have worked on data sets and their analysis
Methodology
The students, divided into groups, analyze data selected from the Inathèque’s collections and apply treatments to them. They use mining tools and visualization tools that allow them to see more clearly the salient features and even the gaps in these massive data sets. INA’s research engineers also apply to some of these corpora, and before the event, search, visualization or transcription treatments that they have developed. In a short time (one week), the groups organize themselves to make these data sets “speak” from the treatments they have applied during the sprint. They finally produce analyses and a report on the last day of the sprint.
Expected results
Dans un temps réduit, une exploitation quanti-quali et analyse de données de la part de groupes d’étudiants. Faire « parler » les donnés de l’INA.
