AI models makes precise copies of cuneiform characters
Researchers from Cornell and Tel Aviv University have developed an approach to use artificial intelligence for reading the ancient tablets.
Now, Middle East scholars can use artificial intelligence (AI) to identify and copy over cuneiform characters from photos of tablets, letting them read complicated scripts with ease. Researchers from Cornell and Tel Aviv University (TAU) have developed an approach called ProtoSnap that “snaps” into place a prototype of a character to fit the individual variations imprinted on a tablet. This advance could help automate the tablet-copying process, saving experts countless hours, and allowing for large-scale comparisons of characters between different times, cities and writers.
