CorTexT platform
The CorTexT Platform is the digital platform of LISIS Unit and a project launched and sustained by IFRIS and INRAE.
This platform aims at empowering open research and studies in humanities about the dynamic of science, technology, innovation and knowledge production.
After the emergence and generalization of network analysis in many disciplines and its valorization in on-line bibliometric tools and then in many social media infrastructure of digital business, quali-quantitative of data bases and the booming of @datas is creating a new space for research. Designing and engineering solution for the analysis and the visualization of datasets represents a scientific and technological challenge. Moreover, the next step towards digital humanities does not address only a technological gap for social sciences; it also means the development of epistemic bargain between disciplines of social sciences, artificial intelligence and computing sciences since the complexity of research problem is increasing in relation to the profusion of new data.

Les résultats de cette analyse détaillent le rôle central joué par l’oncologie dans le développement de ce domaine de recherche. Des démonstrations de principe utilisant un organisme modèle végétal ont rapidement débouché sur des preuves de l’utilité de cette approche dans le cas des hémopathies malignes et des applications dans le domaine des tumeurs solides, notamment les cancers du sein. L’étude met également en relief l’importance de la bioinformatique et des biostatistiques comme conditions de possibilité de ce type de recherches, qui s’imposent dès lors comme le troisième pôle, en plus du laboratoire et de la clinique, du triangle de la recherche translationnelle.},

abstract = {For decades, research has been quite sceptical towards the role journalism plays in local political life. This article shows that news organizations can take advantage of the web to play a new role in local democratic arenas. Based on a statistical and lexicometric analysis of online forums set up by a French regional newspaper (La Voix du Nord), this study shows how the morphology of municipalities impacts the way online discussion unfolds. In providing such online discussion arenas to citizens, the news organization plays the part of a “veil” in small cities – playing down the effects of strong acquaintanceship among individuals – and the part of a “catalyst” in medium-sized cities – promoting the rise of local opinion.},

abstract = {This paper presents a global map of technology that characterises the proximity and dependency of technological areas. It addresses the structure of technological output embodied in the network connecting patents to the patent classifications that they are attributed to. The distance between areas of technology is based on the analysis of the co-occurrence of IPC codes assigned to individual patent documents. As our classification of technologies we use an extended version of the WIPO classification of technological fields, unfolding the 35 classes to 389. The global map allows to ‘overlay’ patents produced by a specific organisation or country against the background of a stable representation of global technological invention and to produce comparisons that are visually attractive, very readable, and potentially useful for policy-making and strategic management. As an illustration, the technological portfolios of two large industrial corporations (IBM and BASF) are projected on this global map of technology, highlighting the technological profile of these groups. As such, the map can provide valuable information about promising areas of further technological development, comparative advantages and missing technological competences. },

abstract = {Until recent time, the description, light-modeling and interpretation of socio-cognitive dynamics of science-society relations required a constructivist approach, involving collecting, reading, classifying and interpreting tasks performed by scholars examining sets of texts, archives, interviews, etc. The growing mass of data produced in the so-called Knowledge Society owes a lot to the acceleration and profusion of digital tools that are now widely used in different areas of human activities: work, culture, leisure, political expression, etc. Social scientists now largely acknowledge that the various modes of interaction brought by new information and communication technologies are changing the very nature of micro-politics and the expression of the self. In our views the conditions for producing knowledge from a Science & Technology Studies point of view are changed too, for at least three reasons: • the deluge of electronic sources of data overloads our capacity of enquiry, • S&TS dynamics now intertwine heterogeneous actors, matters of facts and matters of concerns coming from different arenas call for an integrated understanding of knowledge production and circulation. • Nevertheless, new digital infrastructures specifically designed for social sciences and humanities make it possible to equip scientists with tools that enable them to tackle the complexity of heterogeneous textual corpora dynamics and to develop innovative analytical methodologies that will bring new insights and renewed capacities to investigate contemporary issues.},
