This course is a part of HF's PhD week.
Learning outcomes
In this workshop, you will learn how to use the UiO developed tool Autotekst for automatic text recognition. You can use Autotekst for automatic transcription of your voice memos, interviews, observations, etc.
You will also learn how to set up and use the Dictaphone app, which automatically transcribes speech to text with Autotekst.
The service runs entirely on UiO servers, thus no data ever abandons the UiO infrastructure. This way the service can be used for certain types of red data, if your area of work requires you to do so.
Registration
The course is open to PhD fellows, completion grant holders, and post-doctoral fellows at the Faculty of Humanities, other UiO faculties, and external PhD fellows. Registration opens February 20 at 12:00 and priority is given to PhDs and postdocs from the Faculty of Humanities. We ask that PhDs and postdocs from other Faculties at UiO, and other applicants, wait until on March 1 to register. Registration closes when the course has reached its maximum number of participants.
Practical information
Please bring your laptop and smart phone if you have one, and an audio or video file you would like to have transcribed, if you already have one, or one will be made available to you.
Working methods
Demonstration with practical examples and exercises. Instruction in English, but we can also answer questions in Norwegian.
