    § JJADH Special Issue "Buddhism and Technology": Introduction

    Bingenheimer has created a large dataset for historical social network analysis that can support long-term study of Chinese Buddhist history from a network perspective.

    “Bingenheimer has assembled a sizable dataset for historical social network analysis (Bingenheimer, forthcoming 2021), which can be used to study Chinese Buddhist history over longer periods from a social network perspective.”

    After returning to virtual Buddhist sites following several years away, Falcone discovered that many were deserted.

    § Introduction

    The concept of technē, meaning knowledge and skill directed toward a goal, is deeply rooted in Indian ascetic traditions, where liberation is attained through contemplative abilities.

    “More to the point, the idea of technē, as knowledge and skill applied toward a goal (telos), is deeply embedded in Indian ascetic traditions, where salvation is achieved by the practitioner's contemplative skills.”

    § Additional information

    The newer conditional random field models produce significantly better tokenization of the CBETA corpus than an existing unsupervised algorithm.

    “The test results show that the newer models derived from conditional random fields yield a significantly better tokenization of the CBETA corpus.”
    Quote in the paperSubstantial claim
    • Rests on an assumption: Classical languages such as Chinese, Sanskrit, and Tibetan continue to pose difficulties for tokenization.
    • Rests on an assumption: Texts in other writing systems frequently need tokenization to mark word boundaries.
    • Rests on an assumption: Tokenization now performs reasonably well for modern languages that have sufficient data for deep learning algorithms.

    § JJADH Special Issue "Buddhism and Technology": Introduction

    Sarbacker concludes that the Buddhist goal is an even more radical freedom-enlightenment without requiring enhancement.

    “Sarbacker concludes that the Buddhist aspiration is directed to an even more radical form of freedom, an enlightenment without the need for enhancement.”

    § Additional information

    A tool that lets users rapidly find near-parallel passages could add a new dimension to reading practice by exceeding traditional string search.

    “An interface where users can quickly identify near-parallel passages has the potential to add a new dimension to our reading practice, as it surpasses the traditional string search.”

    § JJADH Special Issue "Buddhism and Technology": Introduction

    Bingenheimer argues that, from a network perspective, the dominance of Dao'an, Huiyuan, and Kumārajīva and their communities can sufficiently explain why Chinese Buddhism decisively identified as Mahāyāna.

    “Bingenheimer argues that, from a network perspective, the predominance of these actors and their respective communities can be considered a sufficient reason for Chinese Buddhism to identify itself decisively as Mahāyāna Buddhism.”

    § JJADH Special Issue "Buddhism and Technology": Introduction

    Using natural language processing methods on texts enables broader analysis and reveals patterns and dynamics at scales unavailable to conventional reading.

    “By applying computational methods developed in the field of natural language processing to our texts, we are able to expand our analysis and find patterns and dynamics on different scales that are not accessible to traditional forms of reading.”

    • Rests on an assumption: Over the past twenty-five years, digitizing Buddhist cultural heritage, particularly texts, has created large digital corpora.

    § JJADH Special Issue "Buddhism and Technology": Introduction

    Network analysis can also assist in finding bridge actors, lesser-known individuals who link more prominent actors or communities.

    “Network analysis can moreover help to identify bridge actors, relatively obscure figures who connect more prominent actors or communities.”

    § Introduction

    Taking the Buddhist goal of ending suffering through insight and skillful means seriously makes the comparison with modern technology seem plausible.

    “If one takes seriously the Buddhist project to end suffering by practicing insight and skillful means, the juxtaposition with modern technology, i.e.the application of scientific 'insight', does not look all that far-fetched.”

  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Over the past twenty-five years, digitizing Buddhist cultural heritage, particularly texts, has created large digital corpora.

    “Over the last twenty-five years the digitization of Buddhist cultural heritage, especially its textual heritage, has resulted in the production of large digital corpora.”

    Classical languages such as Chinese, Sanskrit, and Tibetan continue to pose difficulties for tokenization.

    “Classical languages like Chinese, Sanskrit, and Tibetan are still a challenge, however.”

  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Texts in other writing systems frequently need tokenization to mark word boundaries.

    “Text in other writing systems often must first be tokenized to demarcate words.”

  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Tokenization now performs reasonably well for modern languages that have sufficient data for deep learning algorithms.

    “This now works reasonably well for modern languages for which there are enough data to devise deep learning algorithms.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-04, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-04 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
