CUNEIFORM TABLETS IMAGE PRE PROCESSING BASED ON DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM
Sumerian is a language spoken in southern Mesopotamia, Its earliest cuneiform attestations date from the late 4th or early 3rd millennium BCE. The obvious writing material in Sumer was clay. Clay was widely available and easily molded into suitable shapes (cushion or pillow-shaped ‘tablets’), and writing utensils were easily made for it by sharpening pieces of reed (called a “stylus”). Cuneiform writing constructs Ridges and Grooves on the clay tablet surface. It is these short, mainly straight shapes which have given rise to the modern word “cuneiform” (from the Latin cuneus, meaning ‘wedge’). The translation of cuneiform is a complicated process. It is only in comparatively recent years that the grammar has been scientifically established, while the lexical problems are still numerous and far from resolved. Furthermore, most of the Sumerians tablets lost only few old images left, some of it saved in a special collection or worldwide museums. This Matlab design is based on a method used to obtain the cuneiform text from old Sumerian clay tablets, which is based on automatically select wavelet bases which it is essential and critical issues for wavelet algorithm implementation.
