Boolean Algebra Analysis of Egyption Excavation Pieces

PID (if applicable): -

Problem Statement

Cachette de Karnak - Clustering of Excavation Pieces

Object of Research and Objective

Clustering of Excavation Pieces using relevant Features.

Procedure

Workflow Illustration

2. Data Extraction

Extract numerous excavation pieces and their characteristics from a large database (Karnak Cachette Database). Encode each statue as boolean feature string and store all strings in a table. Considered features are: amputations, amputated head, missing head, partial amputation, partial destruction, and largely destroyed. For each excavation piece and feature a True/False (1/0) value is assigned.

3. Data Analysis

Cluster the statues by relevant features:

Ideal Formulation

From the feature strings of all statues an ideal is formulated, which contains all the rules to remove redundant information from the feature strings.

Relevant Feature Identification

Using the ideal, all feature strings are reduced to their relevant features. Statues with identical relevant feature strings are grouped.

4. Data Interpretation

Cluster groups of statues under certain features.
