Text Analysis Portal for Research (TAPoR)

TAPoR is a CFI funded research infrastructure project. A major part of the project is the development of a Text Analysis Portal which researchers can use.

Important: TAPoR Redesign Project
The TAPoR portal is being moved to the University of Alberta and we are redesigning it. Please participate in the redesign project - we need users.
