Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Xiao Zhan for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, December 10, oracle bone inscriptions are one of the oldest known human characters and the origin of Chinese characters. The interpretation of oracle bone inscriptions is of great significance for us to study Chinese civilization and even human history. However, due to the erosion of time and the fault of cultural inheritance, the original meaning of many oracle bone inscriptions has been lost in history, and less than 1500 of them can be explained today.

Guess what the above oracle bone inscriptions are. Tencent announced today that Tencent SSV Digital Culture Lab and Tencent YouTu Lab will join hands with Anyang Municipal Bureau of Cultural relics and Anyang Oracle Information processing Laboratory to build an open and innovative platform for Oracle. AI technology will be used in the textual research and interpretation of Oracle.

Jia (left) and Ming (right) CTOnews.com learned that a large part of the oracle bone inscription depends on glyph. For example, there is a pig under the roof, which is interpreted as "home", while the interpretation of "Ming" is due to the combination of the word "sun" and "moon". Because of the age, most of the bone fragments written on oracle bone inscriptions have been dilapidated, and it is difficult for researchers to sort them out. But AI technology offers new possibilities--

Glyph matching: Tencent will rely on Oracle glyph data for target retrieval and image matching, listing similar glyphs to provide reference for the interpretation of the word meaning; for example, when explaining the word "Ming", it can quickly retrieve the two similar glyphs of the day and the moon through AI, providing more information for further research.

Copy generation: glyph matching, strong database is the foundation. Tencent will use content generation technology to generate copies of oracle bone rubbings to form a large glyph database

Oracle bone binding, 3D modeling: multi-angle photography for oracle bone rubbings, in order to obtain the fragments for 3D modeling, help splice fragments to generate a complete model, and provide a basis for systematic research after data preservation.

In this way, it is possible to push forward the study of Oracle. In addition, Tencent will also launch Oracle inheritance Mini Program, attract user interaction, be familiar with Oracle and the evolution of Chinese characters, and promote the construction of Oracle open material database, Oracle virtual keyboard and Chinese character encyclopedia. I hope to let more users know and understand Oracle.

Tencent said it will have a long-term communication with scholars engaged in Oracle research to disassemble the difficult problem into technical questions, hoping to disassemble it with AI.
