The DECM Corpus is a digital corpus of the texts of Relaciones Geográficas de Nueva España (the Geographic Reports of New Spain) with different versions, including a machine ready version, a gold standard annotated dataset, and an automatically annotated version ready for text mining and machine learning experiments.
This
is the version of the entire RG corpus automatically annotated using the ML
models trained with the DECM Gold Standard Corpus. The files are available in JSON
and TSV format, and it also contains the file for the DECM Ontology. This
corpus can be further used for quantitative and qualitative research, as well
as advanced analyses using text mining techniques, corpus linguistics and other
methods such as Geographical Text Analysis.
