Un Enfoque Pythonico para Minería de Textos de Historias de Trabajo Arduo, Migración y Resiliencia
summary
Uses Python with Beautiful Soup, Sentence Transformers and BERTopic to mine the Bracero History Archive of ~3,000+ oral items; validates robots.txt, locates the highest item id via exponential then binary then linear search, and removes interviewer lines heuristically. Scrapes 3–3,308 ids, speeds extraction from over an hour to ~12 minutes with 10 workers, clusters into 20 topics, stores citations per interview, and exposes results in a live Shiny app with code on GitHub.
