Introduction

Possible Deprecation

• See https://github.com/OliverHellwig/sanskrit/tree/master/dcs/data . Data is available in Google Drive (dated 2018 as of 2021.)

Goals

• Reconstruct database behind DCS
• Present it in a format better suited for consumption by the broader Sanskrit programming community.

Motivation

This database copy aims to augment DCS web interface and address the following shortcomings:

• Unblock NLP work: People enthusiastic about applying machine learning tools to Sanskrit language data are hampered by lack of access to such data in a convenient format. Examples: 201706, 201607, 201605
• Unblock UI work: The valuable analysis could be presented to end users in many more creative ways.

License and origin acknowledgement

This builds on the foundational work by the DCS team headed by Oliver. See LICENSE file.
