Subjective Assessments of Legibility in Ancient Manuscript Images. The dataset consists of 250 images of historic manuscripts, paired with spatial maps of human legibility. These legibility were created in a study with 20 experts of philology an paleography. Dataset: Publication: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-68787-8_5
Contact: Simon Brenner With over 3000 known examples, Etruscan mirrors form one of the largest object groups in Etruscan art. The majority are metal (mostly bronze) discs with handles whose polished obverse served as a mirror while the reverse was often embellished with engraved and/or chased figures. The old-fashioned way of documenting these objects is … Continue reading 3D Reconstruction of Ancient Bronze Mirrors
Status: available Supervisor: Simon Brenner Problem Statement Multispectral Imaging (MSI) has proven a powerful tool to recover degraded texts in historic manuscripts. In this context, the goal of image enhancement methods is to take the raw multispectral images as input and produce and output image with maximal visibility/legibility of a degraded text. Fig. 1 shows … Continue reading Generative Adversarial Nets (GANs) for the Enhancement of Ancient Manusctripts
