About

An R package for computing feature embeddings a la carte and estimating text embedding regression models as described in Rodriguez, Spirling and Stewart (2021).

How to Install

devtools::install_github("prodriguezsosa/conText")

Datasets

To use conText you will need three datasets:

1. A (quanteda) corpus with the documents and corresponding document variables you want to evaluate.
2. A set of (GloVe) pre-trained embeddings.
3. A transformation matrix specific to the pre-trained embeddings.

In this Dropbox folder (see the /data folder) we have included the three datasets we use in the Quick Start Guide along with their documentation (see the /man folder) and source files (see the /data-raw folder).
