Inforex - A collaborative system for text corpora annotation and analysis

Abstract

We report a first major upgrade of Inforex - a web-based system for qualitative and collaborative text corpora annotation and analysis. Inforex is a part of Polish CLARIN infrastructure1. It is integrated with a digital repository for storing and publishing language resources2 and it allows to visualize, browse and annotate text corpora stored in the repository. As a result of a series of workshops for researchers in Humanities and Social Sciences we improved the graphical interface to make the system more friendly and readable for non-experienced users. We also implemented a new functionality for a gold standard annotation which includes private annotations and annotation agreement by a super-annotator.
