Project description

BasketLens is a tool to explore a collection of texts by searching single words or baskets of words. To define a basket users can type lists of words or use predefined baskets (e.g. "male" words, or "love" words. In the table users can see which documents contain those words, one column per term or basket. The more matches the document had, the brighter the color of the cell. This prototype is the result of an undergraduate independant study by Darya Filippova.
