August 14th, 2017: Day 28

The morning meeting was pretty relaxed, people turned in their presentations. Paige and I are still making some last minute changes to ours. The morning was spent editing the presentation and then we gave another practice one in the auditorium. It was 17 and a half minutes this time so we added enough information in. We added things in during lunch. We found Roger so I could get his hard drive and finish downloading more C73 files to work on for the next two days. I think we've done a really good job with our presentation. I'm proud of the results. We finished it around 2 and gave it to Joe. The rest of the day we spent making image cubes for Roger and putting together results for Todd Hanneken. Tomorrow we have the run-throughs of our presentations in the morning. I'm really excited to stutter in front of everyone!!!! I'll post about it tomorrow.

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 4th, 2017: Day 22

I'm sorry about the late blog post but I've been quite busy today. The group read mine and Paige's outline during the morning meeting. She keeps telling me I don't contribute and that I'm useless but insists that I explain the outline and answer questions so I'd like an explanation about that, Paige. This morning we worked on our presentation mostly. We put together slides and got images ready. My best friend was on campus today for a college and major exposition or whatever the program is so we got lunch and I told her all about the internship and the wonderful people I've met. I got very into detail about the Lunch Bunch, I was very excited to tell her all about them. I also told her about my project and Paige, Dave, and Roger. After she left I went back inside and worked a little more on the presentation. We don't have as much data for the palimpsest as we did for the Selden Map so that section is going to be much shorter, or at least it is for now. I...
