Automated Documentation System for Pottery

Motivated by the requirements of the present archaeology, we are developing an automated documentation system for archaeological classification and reconstruction of ceramics. Our system works with the profile of an archaeological fragment, which is the cross-section of the fragment in the direction of the rotational axis of symmetry. Ceramic fragments are recorded automatically by a 3D-measure...

An automated pottery archival and reconstruction system

Our system uses the profile of an archaeological fragment, which is the cross-section of the fragment in the direction of the rotational axis of symmetry, to classify and reconstruct it virtually. Ceramic fragments are recorded...
