July 18th, 2017: Day 9

The meeting was kind of entertaining today. We read like four abstracts and reviewed them. Mine and Paige's won't be ready until probably Thursday or Friday. After that we worked on the presentation again. This time I added little explanations that were unnecessary but it's whatever. We also added more SAM results to the thing and Paige is building this nifty map so I'm pretty happy looking at that. I'm working on comparing the red pigments across the map, using the chrysanthemums in Japan as reference. Dave won't be here tomorrow so we're gonna have a fantastic time figuring things out. I literally cannot wait. We'll likely add more slides of red and blue pigment and see where that goes.
I don't have an RGB images of Japan but here's a SAM result so you have some kinda of idea what I'm doing.

Outline

Intro Background: We are working to uncover illegible text from the "Jubilees Palimpsest" and find corrections and later additions on the Selden Map of China     Purpose/Technique: We use hyper-spectral imaging (several narrow spectral hundred bands) and multi-spectral imagining (fewer than 50 bands) The images are digitally processed and combined to create images with more characters that are legible than those in the regular RGB image Processing tools include Principle Components Analysis (PCA), Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM), Spectral Profiles   Selden Map Background: The Selden Map dates back to the early 17th Century during the Ming Dynasty The map includes approximately 15 countries and shows a system of navigational routes China, Borneo, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan are five countries with the most significant results Focus/Results: Green corrections in Borneo, Korea, Taiwan, and Rivers of North China Missing texts and names of ports in B...

Abstract Rough Draft

 Document Restoration's main focus is to study old documents and analyze them using several techniques. We are currently working on finding corrections using pigment analysis and imaging enhancements on the Selden Map of the Ming Dynasty dating back to the 1600's. We will also be working with faded and illegible texts. These documents have either been erased, covered up, or have faded. Spectral imaging creates more precise and useful information than regular red, green, blue (RGB) imagery.   For example, hy per-spectral and multi-spectral imaging are used to make items more legible and more visible to the human eye. Multi-spectral imaging uses less than 50 color bands during processing, while hyper-spectral imaging uses several hundred bands during processing. Other analysis techniques used to get more information about a part of a document include Principal Components Analysis (PCA), Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM), and Mahalanobis Distance. These techniques can also be applied ...

August 16th, 2017: Day 30

Today was the final full work day!!!!! During the morning meeting we talked about the program and how it could be made better. After that, Paige and I watched Peter and Ashley's presentations and gave them some feedback. We looked at Roger's data for the rest of the morning until lunch time. We watched Aditi and Titus' presentations during the afternoon.
