Dr. Anastasia Eleftheriadou Co-Organises International Training School on Computer Vision in Archaeology

Our post-doctoral researcher, Dr. Anastasia Eleftheriadou, together with colleagues from the Czech Academy of Sciences, Institute of Archaeology, Brno, and the University of Gothenburg, co-organised an intensive one-week training school dedicated to computer vision in archaeology. Participants learnt how to harness modern machine learning techniques to detect, classify, and analyse archaeological features and artefacts in images. Anastasia taught a session on post-processing and image augmentation for computer vision applied to microscopy images in archaeology, showcasing her work on the use of machine learning for use-wear analysis.

The training school was part of a trans-national access scheme provided by the ATRIUM Project, and was hosted by the Archaeological Information System of the Czech Republic (AIS CR) research infrastructure at the Institute of Archaeology, Czech Academy of Sciences, Brno. The school was co-organised by the MAIA COST Action.
