The Methods Lab is pleased to host a hands-on workshop led by Dr. Vihang Jumle (University of Bern) on automating frame analysis using RoBERTa. This practical session teaches social science researchers how to apply pre-trained language models to scale text coding – transforming manual content analysis into a fast, reproducible process. Participants will learn to fine-tune models, preprocess data, apply data augmentation, and evaluate results using precision, recall, and cross-validation – using their own research datasets. Designed for intermediate Python users, the workshop emphasizes real-world application and project-based learning. Ideal for researchers in communication studies, political science, and sociology. Register now and bring your data to automate your next analysis!
