| Popis: | 95 Applying scientific and technological methods to reconstructing archaeological remains has become a very important issue in the modern archaeology research. At the same time, though being a must-done work before deciphering the inscriptions, rejoining oracle bone fragments manually has been regarded as a time consuming and tedious job. This thesis proposes an inter-disciplinary approach to exploit information science technologies to automatically piece broken oracle bones. The proposed approach integrates the image processing tools and several different assembling algorithms to recommend possible matches. The goal is to overcome the difficulty of access of the artifacts from different collections and to minimize the possible damage caused to the artifacts through manual assembling. The algorithm is implemented and tested on pictures of An-yang oracle bones from Institute of History and Philology, Academia Sinica. It is capable of ranking the matched bones based on some designed scores. The promising experiment results show that the system can reach 80~90% accuracy. The ultimate goal is to provide practical recommendations for not only oracle bone but also other archaeological materials. This thesis also demonstrates how an interdisciplinary approach can be designed and applied with the hope to advance the collaboration in between computer science and archaeology researches. |
