Chinese inscription restoration based on artificial intelligent models

Chinese ancient inscriptions have a long history, while natural erosion and human destruction have led to many incomplete inscriptions with low-quality textual data and blurry images. With deep learning technologies, it is expected to use relevant image and language processing tasks to restore inscriptions. To improve the efficiency of restoration tasks and promote the digital protection of cultural heritage, this study used deep learning technology to restore ancient Chinese inscriptions. We combined natural language processing and computer vision technologies to train models for restoring inscriptions. The results indicated that the joint solution had advantages over every single model for incomplete character restoration.
