Treffer: The Cultural Mapping and Pattern Analysis (CMAP) Visualization Toolkit: Open Source Text Analysis for Qualitative and Computational Social Science.

The article discusses the CMAP (Cultural Mapping and Pattern Analysis) visualization toolkit, which is an open-source suite designed for analyzing and visualizing various types of text data, including qualitative field notes and historical documents. It aims to support scholars in the fields of qualitative and computational social science by providing a scalable alternative to commercial qualitative data analysis software. The toolkit emphasizes aligning research tools with social science project goals and allows for integration with other Python tools, offering flexibility through adjustable parameters. The preprint has not undergone peer review. [Extracted from the article]
