2022 Workshop on Unstructured Data

UEF Workshop on Unstructured Data in Research — 23 May 2022 @ Joensuu

UEF Workshop on Unstructured Data in Research will gather together researchers around UEF working with unstructured, e.g. textual, data. The research day provides UEF researchers a place to meet colleagues working with similar types of data and to exchange knowledge. Researchers that have unstructured data as well as researchers knowing how to analyse unstructured data are both welcome.

The research day’s program has two invited presentations and short presentations from UEF’s research groups. The day is open and free for everyone. For planning coffee and transport, we request registration by 13 May.

Time and Place

23 May 2022 at Joensuu campus, lecture hall M100. Program runs between 10 am and 4 pm with morning coffee served at 9.30 am.
