Paraly: An (annotated) dataset for exploring the concept of paralysis (fr. ‘paralysie’) in a digital corpus of French Literature

Year: 2025

Type: data-paper

Abstract: we cleaned the tables with the metadata to ensure consistency of the entries. The text passages containing the set of characters "paraly" have been manually annotated. A multilabel classifier was then trained using the annotated data and the flair-library, and an application with a graphical user interface was deployed at Hugging Face. The provided dataset facilitates a better understanding of the associated research project on the French literary and cultural history of paralysis. The methodological approach can be adapted to generate new research datasets tailored to other studies.
