ShiCo -- Exploring Shifting Concepts Through Time

What is ShiCo?

ShiCo is a tool for visualizing time shifting concepts. We refer to a concept as the set of words which are related to a given seed word. ShiCo uses a set of semantic models (word2vec) spanning a number of years to explore how concepts change over time -- words related to a given concept at time t=0 may differ from the words related to the same concept at time t=n. For example:

Mock concept shift Mock concept shift

You can find more details of how the concept shift works here and you can read the user documentation here.
