Researchers at Unisanté (CH), who are involved in OMEGA-NET, have developed a tool (Procode), for automatic coding of free-text records of occupations into occupational classifications and recoding between different classifications, in English, German, French and Italian, using machine learning.

To train the text classifier algorithm and improve the coding and recoding performances of Procode, they are looking for additional data (i.e. free-text records of occupations in English, German, French or Italian with manually assigned codes in any national or international classification of occupations or industries). A description of the tool can be found at https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.07521 (under review).
