Data set for the paper "Turing's Conceptual Engineering", by Marcin Miłkowski, as appearing in Philosophies, 2022, 7(3), 69, available at https://doi.org/10.3390/philosophies7030069Section for Logic & Cognitive ScienceInstitute of Philosophy and SociologyPolish Academy of ScienceGenerated by Marcin Miłkowski (2022) using SketchEngine and gensim from a corpus of published Alan Turing's writing and correspondence, as contained in 'Essential Turing' [1] and 'Collected Works of Allan Turing' [2, 3]. Detailed description of the corpus construction follows below.The source corpus contained the following papers, in the alphabetic order:1. A Diffusion Reaction Theory of Morphogenesis in Plants (1952, with C.W. Wardlaw, from [3]2. Can Automatic Calculating Machines Be Said To Think? (1952), Radio Discussion including Alan Turing, Richard Braithwaite, Geoffrey Jefferson, and Max Newman, from [1]2. Can Digital Computers Think (1951), from [1]3. Checking a Large Routine (1949), from [2]4. Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis (1952), from [1]5. Chess (1951), from [1]6. Computing Machinery and Intelligence (1950), from [1]7. Intelligent Machinery (1948), from [1]8. Intelligent Machinery, A Heretical Theory (circa 1951), from [1]9. Lecture on the Automatic Computing Engine (1947), 10. Lecture to the London Mathematical Society on 20 February 1947 (1947), from [2]11. Excerpts from correspondence (1936-1938), from [1]12. Letters on Logic to Max Newman (circa 1940), from [1]13. Letter to W. Ross Ashby (circa 1947), from [2]14. Letter to to Winston Churchill (1941), from [1]15. Memorandum to OP-20-G on Naval Enigma, chapters: 1, from [1], as well as all available textual excerpts from Chapter 5, 6, 7 from [4]16. Morphogen Theory of Phyllotaxis (1952), from [3]17. On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem (1936), from [1]18. On Computable Numbers. A Correction (1937), from [1]19. Outline of the Development of the Daisy (1952), from [3]20. Proposals for Development in the Mathematics Division of an Automatic Computing Engine (ACE) (1945), from [2]21. Solvable and Unsolvable Problems (1954), from [1]22. Systems of Logic Based on Ordinals (1938), from [1]The corpus does not contain Turing's papers in pure mathematics and some of his work in logic, mostly because these are only available in the form of scans, for which available OCR software does not really work well. Moreover, the textual analysis of mathematical notation seems somewhat pointless. ...
