This data is the results of two similar polls. The first set of results, "Reproducible Archaeology: Responses from Durham University Archaeologists" holds data from a live poll participated in during the workshop on 'Reproducible research in Archaeology' at Durham University on 15th October 2021. (See https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5615534 for a recording of the workshop.) The second poll was advertised on Twitter in November 2021, aiming to gather answers to the same questions but in a modified format for a survey rather than a live poll. The poll and reports were created using Slido: the PDF is an automatically generated report; the Excel Spreadsheet gives all poll answers. The use of Slido was funded by the Software Sustainability Institute as part of their Fellowship scheme.

Ground truth data for a an OCR model. Will be continually updated. Originally trained on Transkribus with a PyLaia model created from ground truth data based on transcripts into Pracalit Unicode of four Nepalese manuscripts. The manuscripts used to create this model are Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin's Hitopadeśa (MIK I 4851) (mixed Newar and Sanskrit dating to 1561) and Vetālapañcaviṃśati (HS. Or. 6414) (Newar dating to 1675) as well as Cambridge Digital Library's Avalokiteśvaraguṇakāraṇḍavyūha (MS Add. 1322) (Sanskrit, 18th century) and the Royal Asiatic Society Online Collection's Madhyamasvayaṃbhūpurāṇa (RAS Hodgson MS 23) (Newar and Sanskrit dating to c. 1800). The training was done on 441 pages and validation on 242 pages. This model does not recognise spacing, except for large gaps (i.e. for pictures or string holes). Newar word divider markers may not be represented or may be transcribed as virama. In general, the model is made for MSS with scriptio continua and will transcribe into scriptio continua into Pracalit Unicode. Transcription was performed by Dr Alexander O'Neill (SOAS University of London). Transcription of the Vetālapañcaviṃśati (HS. Or. 6414) and Madhyamasvayaṃbhūpurāṇa (RAS Hodgson MS 23) was aided by unpublished materials provided by Dr Felix Otter (Philipps-Universität Marburg), as well as the published transcription in Shakya, Min Bahadur, and Shanta Harsha Bajracharya, eds. "Svayambhū Purāṇa." Lalitpur: Nagarjuna Institute of Exact Methods, 2001. The transcription of Avalokiteśvaraguṇakāraṇḍavyūha (MS Add. 1322) was aided by the transcription provided by the Digital Sanskrit Buddhist Canon Project based on Lokesh Chandra, "Guṇakāraṇḍavyūhasūtram," New Delhi: International Academy of Indian Culture, 1999. Transkribus, 1.20.0–1.20.1
