Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has become widely used in cultural heritage (CH). This very
efficient method for artwork analysis is connected with the generation of large amounts of …

The use of imaging has transformed the study of cultural heritage artefacts in the same way
that medical imaging has transformed medicine. X-ray-based techniques are common in …

Spectral imaging modalities, including reflectance and X-ray fluorescence, play an important
role in conservation science. In reflectance hyperspectral imaging, the data are classified …

To the human eye, different images appear more or less complex, but capturing this intuition
in a single aesthetic measure is considered hard. Here, we propose a computationally …

Computed Tomography (CT) has proven itself as a powerful technique for analysing the
internal structure of cultural heritage objects. The process followed by conservators and …

Data analysis has increasingly relied on machine learning in recent years. Since machines
implement mathematical algorithms without knowing the physical nature of the problem, they …

Abstract Knowledge of pigments and their distribution in paintings can inform conservators
and scholars to better understand, and conserve these objects. In recent years, a variety of …

Recent advancements of noninvasive imaging techniques applied for the study and
conservation of paintings have driven a rapid development of cutting-edge computational …

Particle and radiation sources are widely employed in manifold applications. In the last
decades, the upcoming of versatile, energetic, high-brilliance laser-based sources, as …

Macro X-ray Fluorescence (MA-XRF) scanning is increasingly widely used by researchers in
heritage science to analyse easel paintings as one of a suite of non-invasive imaging …
