Scientific Text-Mining with KH Coder: Troubleshooting and Solutions

More and more routine tasks are being handled with the help of computer technologies. Science is not neglected; for example, computational linguistics programs greatly simplify the analysis of scientific literature, although not without shortcomings. In this paper, we discuss some of the common challenges that arise when conducting literature analysis in KH Coder, a free distributed software offering analysis of text documents in multiple languages. The proposed solutions, in our opinion, will help researchers obtain more reliable and qualitative results depending on the objectives of the text-mining of relevant scientific literature.
