Mosaicing Multispectral Images of Heritage Paintings

Advisor: Nassir Navab
Supervision by: Alexandru Duliu

Abstract

The restoration of old artworks is the painstaking task of correcting the influences the passage of time had upon them. Great artistic and art-historic skill is required to even attempt such a delicate task.
Modern imaging methods like fluorescence x-ray imaging have been a great aid in this effort. Multispecral optical imaging has also been successfully used to non-destructively authenticate old works of art.
In this master thesis we propose using multispectral imaging as an aid to the restoration process of heritage paintings and also to help peel back centuries of decoloration and layered impurities. To ensure that small enough details can be recovered, mosaicing will be employed to reconstruct a very high resolution image of the artworks in question.
