Specializing Large Models for Oracle Bone Script Interpretation via Component-Grounded Multimodal Knowledge Augmentation

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2604.06711v1 Announce Type: cross Deciphering ancient Chinese Oracle Bone Script (OBS) is a challenging task that offers insights into the beliefs, systems, and culture of the ancient era. Existing approaches treat decipherment as a closed-set image recognition problem, which fails to bridge the ``interpretation gap'': while individual characters are often unique and rare, they are composed of a limited set of recurring, pictographic components that carry transferable semantic meanings.
