Detection and restoration of cracked digitized paintings and manuscripts using image processing

Ancient paintings are cultural heritage that can be preserved via computer aided analysis and processing. These paintings deteriorate due to undesired cracks, which are caused by aging, drying up of painting material, and mechanical factors. These heritages need to be restored to their respective...
