Hieroglyphics Initiative is the first project in the world able to decipher ancient hieroglyphics thanks to artificial intelligence. Machine learning is a form of artificial intelligence that gives computers the ability to work on a great number of data.

Graphic recognition is a form of machine learning used by the Hieroglyphics Initiative to identify the images of hand-sculpted hieroglyphics. In particular, a new high-tech hieroglyphics database will help translating the huge number of hieroglyphics in a quicker and more effective way, helping Egyptologists from all over the world in their work.
