In meiner Doktorarbeit (Institut für Politikwissenschaft & Japanologie / Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg) nutze ich den TopicExplorer als Werkzeug, um verschiedene Diskurse zu identifizieren, in denen der japanische Begriff jikosekinin („Selbstverantwortung“) vorkommt. Im Folgenden soll exemplarisch der Arbeitsvorgang bei der Identifikation und Interpretation eines Themas beschrieben werden. In der Darstellung des Arbeitsprozesses wird deutlich, welche zusätzlichen Informationen in der Benutzeroberfläche des TopicExplorers diese Arbeit erleichtern würden.
Towards a TopicExplorer implementation in Elm – Part two
In this part, I explore the option to refactor the model of the elm-TopicExplorer-client such that identifiers for topics link out to all data relevant to viewing and interacting with topics. Starting with the topic hierarchy, this strategy leads to an overall implementation that is decomposed into several small reusable modules. This allows to easily implement different variants of the web-interface that can be tested in user studies.

Towards a TopicExplorer implementation in Elm
Due to the benefits of the programming language Elm, which compiles to JavaScript, we plan to implement the TopicExplorer web interface in Elm. We discuss the re-implementation in several blog posts. In this first part, we show a demo and discuss the code of the topic navigator sub-interface.
