Processing a Quarter (68 folios) of the Syriac Galen Palimpsest http://www.digitalgalen.net

This dataset contains approximately a quarter of the Syriac Galen Palimpsest (http://www.digitalgalen.net/) which was image processed with the Canonical Variates Analysis method and the software existent at this web link https://github.com/corneliu37/GalenProject with the scope of retrieving a sixth-century translation from Greek language to Syriac language of the 2nd century Greek Scientist Aelius Galen book's "On Simple Drugs", which translation was made by the 6th century scientist Sergius of Resh 'Ayna, which text exists presently as an undertext of an eleventh-century liturgical work (i.e. the overtext) and this is known once again as the Syriac Galen Palimpsest. This quarter of the Syriac Galen Palimpsest was processed by Dr Corneliu Arsene, University of Manchester, United Kingdom, 2016 (68 folios processed with the Canonical Variates Analysis software/method from the total of about 250 unprocessed folios).本数据集包含约四分之一的叙利亚文盖伦重写本（Syriac Galen Palimpsest），该典籍的相关信息可访问网址http://www.digitalgalen.net/。本数据集采用典型变量分析（Canonical Variates Analysis）方法，以及上述网页链接https://github.com/corneliu37/GalenProject 提供的软件完成图像处理，旨在复原公元2世纪希腊科学家埃利乌斯·盖伦（Aelius Galen）所著《论简单药物》（On Simple Drugs）从希腊语到叙利亚语的6世纪译本。该译本由6世纪学者雷沙伊纳的塞尔吉乌斯（Sergius of Resh 'Ayna）完成，其文本如今以下层文本（undertext）的形式留存于11世纪的礼拜仪式著作（即上层文本overtext）中，该重写本同样被称为叙利亚文盖伦重写本。本次处理的叙利亚文盖伦重写本四分之一内容由英国曼彻斯特大学的科内柳·阿尔塞内（Corneliu Arsene）博士于2016年完成：共计处理68叶对开页，而该重写本未处理的对开页总数约为250叶。
