NL Seminar-How we Cracked the Borg Cipher + First Steps Towards Deciphering from Images
Fri, Sep 09, 2016 @ 03:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Information Sciences Institute
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Nada Aldarrab, USC/ISI
Talk Title: How we Cracked the Borg Cipher + First Steps Towards Deciphering from Images
Series: Natural Language Seminar
Abstract: European libraries are filled with undeciphered historical manuscripts from the 16th-18th centuries. These documents are enciphered with classical methods, which puts their contents out of the reach of historians who are interested in the history of that era. In this talk, we show how we automatically cracked a 400-page book from the 17th century. We also describe a system aimed at deciphering from camera-phone images. We show initial results for different ciphers.
Biography: Nada is a graduate student at USC, working on her thesis under the supervision of Prof. Kevin Knight. She is currently working on the decipherment of historical documents (joint project with Uppsala University, Sweden). Her research interests include natural language processing, machine learning, decipherment and machine translation.
Host: Xing Shi and Kevin Knight
