Dataset Card for I.PHI

This is the I.PHI dataset from the Nature article "Restoring and attributing ancient texts using deep neural networks". I.PHI contains geographical and chronological metadata for a cleaned subset of the Packard Humanities Institute database of ancient Greek inscriptions.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

Curated by: Thea Sommerschield*, Yannis Assael*, Brendan Shillingford, Mahyar Bordbar, John Pavlopoulos, Marita Chatzipanagiotou, Ion Androutsopoulos, Jonathan Prag, Nando de Freitas
Shared by: George Baker
Language(s) (NLP): Ancient and Byzantine Greek
License: Apache 2.0

Dataset Sources

Repository: github.com/sommerschield/iphi
Paper: Restoring and attributing ancient texts using deep neural networks

Uses

I.PHI contains data for chronological attribution (dating), geographical attribution, and text restoration of Ancient and Byzantine Greek inscriptions.

Data Collection and Processing

Duplicate inscriptions and inscriptions with fewer than 50 characters are dropped.

Note: this version contains slightly more examples than the number reported in the original article (70,682/8,751/8,769 instead of 63,014/7,783/7,811). This is likely due to additions to the Packard Humanities Institute database from which the dataset is sourced.
