Dataset
OCR and crowdsourced annotations, Language of Mechanisation, JSON files
Datasets created through crowdsourcing tasks created on the Zooniverse crowdsourcing platform by the Living with Machines ‘language of mechanisation’ project team. Building on earlier work classifying machines by function, we asked volunteers on Zooniverse 'how did the word x change over time and place?' and presented them with options for... -

Datasets for toponym recognition and disambiguation for nineteenth-century English newspapers
We present two datasets, one for the task of toponym recognition and one for the task of toponym disambiguation. The datasets are derived from the "Dataset for Toponym Resolution in Nineteenth-Century English Newspapers" (DOI: https://doi.org/10.23636/r7d4-kw08). The toponym recognition dataset consists of two JSON files (ner_fine_train.json and ner_fine_dev.json), whereas the toponym...Coll Ardanuy, Mariona ; Nanni, Federico

DeezyMatch training set for OCR
Optical character recognition (OCR) is the process of automatically transcribing text from images. The presence of OCR-induced errors in digitised text is a common problem in the digital humanities. OCR errors are usually due to the misrecognition of characters, such as "h" recognised as "b", or "c" recognised as "o".... -

Diachronic word embeddings from 19th-century newspapers digitised by the British Library (1800-1919)
Word vectors related to the paper "Machines in the media: semantic change in the lexicon of mechanization in 19th-century British newspapers" by Nilo Pedrazzini and Barbara McGillivray (2022). The embeddings were trained on a 4.2-billion-word corpus of 19th-century British newspapers using Word2Vec and specific parameters. The embeddings are divided into...Pedrazzini, Nilo ; McGillivray, Barbara

Decade-level Word2Vec models from automatically transcribed 19th-century newspapers digitised by the British Library (1800-1919)
Word embeddings trained on a 4.2-billion-word corpus of 19th-century British newspapers using Word2Vec and specific parameters. The embeddings are divided into periods of ten years each. Unlike those in this repository, these were not aligned and OCR errors skimmed from the vocabulary. See related GitHub repository for the full documentation:...Pedrazzini, Nilo
