Kathryn Kelley
Assyriologist; computational work on proto-cuneiform and proto-Elamite sign use
Kathryn Kelley is assyriologist (Oxford, Toronto, Bologna) who with the Simon Fraser natural-language group produced the sign-frequency tool, the Tribute list analysis and the image-based sign-inventory work., and appears in the record of Proto-cuneiform: the archaic texts of Uruk as assyriologist; computational work on proto-cuneiform and proto-Elamite sign use.
Two events on the site involve Kelley, from Born and Kelley publish a sign-frequency tool for the whole CDLI corpus (10 Dec 2021) to Born, Monroe, Kelley and Sarkar learn a sign inventory from tablet images by deep clustering (Jul 2023).
Two questions rest in part on what Kelley did or said, among them “Do the Sumerian readings of the later copies of the lexical lists carry back to the archaic Uruk III exemplars?”, which stands open: no answer ahead yet.
