Computational approaches for technical imaging in cultural heritage (7th IP4AI meeting)
With the increasing use of a range of advanced technical imaging and spectroscopic imaging methods in the study and preservation of artworks and other cultural heritage artefacts, there is growing interest in - and need for - computational approaches to fully realise the potential in the data acquired, to automate aspects of the processing and interpretation of the data and be able to address research questions in a variety of disciplines. This is a rapidly growing field of research that is only possible through cross-disciplinary collaboration.
