Deepdive: Using AI, Machine Learning, and Virtual Reality to Explore Ancient Submerged Civilizations

摘要

This paper provides an overview of the DeepDive system and its use to uncover ancient submerged sites. While this paper focuses on one example, the system is designed to be generally applicable to other environments that are difficult to access and contain unknown components. The incorporated AI tool learns to identify systematic patterns in the environment of an ancient civilization resources and can also provide an opportunity to generate and test Anthropological and Archaeological theories. This paper demonstrates some of these basic capabilities and their potential to aid in the generic exploration of ancient sites and the civilizations that produced them.
