Text mining and data mining are just two among a growing number of applied technologies. Jisc Inform explores how these and others are being developed to help researchers do everything from the mundane – such as managing routine research tasks more effectively – to the truly remarkable.
In medical research, text mining can be used to review tens of thousands of pages of research papers simultaneously and detect patterns and associations that could otherwise easily remain hidden from researchers. Those previously unimagined connections could help to bring about rapid, important advances in understanding disease pathology, genetics and drug development.
