Report of the comparative analysis of the correlation between topics emergent from regional discourses on the one hand, and the awareness and perceptions of the EU (from Eurobarometer) on the other hand

This document describes the database we developed from data collection and organization activities as described in tasks 5.2 and 5.3 of the PERCEIVE project. The former task, which lasted from month 5 to month 10, consisted of an "Original data collection for exploratory topic modeling". The latter task, which lasted from month 10 to month 13, was named "Topic modeling and qualification". As stated in the Grant Agreement, this description of the database was expected around month 14 (October 2017), while the database itself will be made publically available on-line for further research only after the end of the PERCEIVE project. Indeed, task 5.4, which will last until month 15 is the "Actual Construction of a database of discursive Topics". This document will thus focus on data collection and organization as well as provide an example of the topic models that we are developing coding discourses from different kinds of described datasets.
