Diachronicword embeddings (decade-level) trained with Word2Vec (via Gensim) on different geographic subcorpora of the Heritage Made Digital British and the Living with Machineshistorical newspaper collections: - North England (north.zip) - South England (south.zip) At the moment, for each subcorpus, Word2Vec models are available for each decade in the period 1830-1889. More models are on the way for the following: - each decade in the periods 1780-1829 and 1890-1920 for both North and South England. - diachronic models for the following regions: Scotland, Wales, and Midlands. The models were trained using the following parameters: sg = True min_count = 1 window = 5 vector_size = 200 epochs = 5 Like the embeddings inthis repository, the model for each decade was aligned to the most recent one with Orthogonal Procrustes.
