Neural Style Transfer for Synthesising a Dataset of Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs
The limited availability of training data for low-resource languages makes applying machine learning techniques challenging. Ancient Egyptian is one such language with few resources. However, innovative applications of data augmentation methods, such as Neural Style Transfer, could overcome these barriers. This paper presents a novel method for generating datasets of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs by applying NST to a digital typeface. Experimental results found that image classification models trained on NST-generated examples and photographs demonstrate equal performance and transferability to real unseen images of hieroglyphs.

HieroGlyphTranslator: Automatic Recognition and Translation of Egyptian Hieroglyphs to English
Egyptian hieroglyphs, the ancient Egyptian writing system, are composed entirely of drawings. Translating these glyphs into English poses various challenges, including the fact that a single glyph can have multiple meani…

Semantic Alignment across Ancient Egyptian Language Stages via Normalization-Aware Multitask Learning
We study word-level semantic alignment across four historical stages of Ancient Egyptian. These stages differ in script and orthography, and parallel data are scarce. We jointly train a compact encoder-decoder model with…
Part-Of-Speech TaggingAncient Painting to Natural Image: A New Solution for Painting Processing
Collecting a large-scale and well-annotated dataset for image processing has become a common practice in computer vision. However, in the ancient painting area, this task is not practical as the number of paintings is li…
Style TransferClassifier identification in Ancient Egyptian as a low-resource sequence-labelling task
The complex Ancient Egyptian (AE) writing system was characterised by widespread use of graphemic classifiers (determinatives): silent (unpronounced) hieroglyphic signs clarifying the meaning or indicating the pronunciat…
