Unveiling architectural heritage through AI

The digitization and 3D modeling of heritage sites have become increasingly common, aiding in the preservation of monuments and archaeological sites while enabling more precise restoration efforts. However, the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for research and public engagement remains largely underexplored. Beyond documentation, AI can play a crucial role in both enriching and generating new interpretations of architectural heritage, offering novel ways to analyze, reconstruct, and even reimagine historical structures.

At the intersection of art history, computational paleography, and artificial intelligence, MoNumEd brings together expertise from these fields to develop innovative solutions that bridge the gap between raw data and meaningful interpretation, making complex information more accessible and usable.
