| Abstract | Delivering linguistic resources and easy-to-use methods to a broad public inthe humanities is a challenging task. On the one hand users rightly demand easyto use interfaces but on the other hand want to have access to the fullflexibility and power of the functions being offered. Even though a growingnumber of excellent systems exist which offer convenient means to uselinguistic resources and methods, they usually focus on a specific domain, asfor example corpus exploration or text categorization. Architectures whichaddress a broad scope of applications are still rare. This article introducesthe eHumanities Desktop, an online system for corpus management, processing andanalysis which aims at bridging the gap between powerful command line tools andintuitive user interfaces. |
