The discovery has become part of the Vesuvius Challenge -a international competition with a large prize pool that supports AI’s development for reading charred ancient texts.
The researchers’ team adapted the artificial intelligence model, which is commonly used to study medical pictures to identify the text in a 2000-year-old scroll, which burns the Vesuvius explosion in 79 of our time, Nature Magazine reports.
The team’s scroll is stored in the Bodlian Library in Oxford and that -Scan at the Diamond Light Source Accelerator. Researchers have mentioned areas with visible ink to teach the model even with letters that are not visible to the bare eyes. As a result, I managed to read the heading and the work -set.
The scroll became part of the work “in the vices” of Greek Philosopher Philodem.
According to experts, the possibility that the set is definitely Filodem is high: it is believed that scrolls come from its personal library. In the decrypted fragment, there are words translated as “confusion”, “fear” and “disgusting”, and perfumes and hairdresser are also mentioned -perhaps in the context of metaphors or metaphors.
The discovery has become part of the Vesuvius Challenge -a international competition with a large prize pool that supports the development of AI for reading burnt ancient texts.
The winners of the competition, Marseille Roth from the University of Würzburg and Mikhal Novak from Gray Swan Ai from the USA, received a $ 60 thousand reward.
This victory is a victory in attempts to read scrolls located in Herculanum, an ancient Roman city, destroyed during the Vesuvius explosion. There are no scrolls that remain intact, but they cannot be expanded due to damage. According to experts, with the speed of development, the complete reading of scrolls is only a few hours.
We will remind you, earlier it was reported that Cambridge created a system for AI -based weather forecasts.
Openai plans to sell access to the science candidate level
