Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cultural relics identification, and in particular to a porcelain identification system and method based on artificial intelligence. Background Art

[0002] Traditional porcelain dating and authenticity authentication relies heavily on expert experience, judging by the appearance, style, decorative patterns, and inscriptions on the base. While existing image recognition technologies are increasingly being applied to cultural relic analysis, they currently focus on visible light imaging or microscopic features, with limited ability to detect underglaze structures, cosmetic layers, and signs of porcelain aging. This is particularly true when porcelain is repaired, re-fired glazes are used to imitate, or new porcelain with an old base is used as a base. Traditional detection methods are often affected by interference, making identification difficult. Summary of the Invention

[0013] distribution pattern of underglaze cracks;

[0014] Differences in infrared absorption spectra between the cosmetic soil layer and the carcass;

[0015] The decorative style characteristics of historical kiln samples;

[0016] Structured recognition template for official inscription text.

[0017] In combination with the first aspect, further comprising:

[0018] The multi-spectral UV detection unit integrates a 365nm long-wave UV lamp and a 254nm short-wave UV lamp to identify abnormal reactions of fluorescent agents and use the detection results as exclusion conditions for analysis by the AI ​​image processing module.

[0019] In combination with the first aspect, further, the short-wave infrared camera module and the visible light photography module are integrated into an adjustable slide rail bracket, and the bracket is equipped with a laser positioner and an angle encoder;

[0025] Perform style matching analysis between the glaze color and patterns of visible light images and the historical kiln feature database;

[0026] By integrating dual-spectral feature data through the AI ​​image processing module, an identification report is generated that includes the probability of age, kiln ownership and authenticity level.

[0027] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0028] This invention utilizes dual-spectral integration of shortwave infrared and visible light, combined with AI image processing and analysis, to effectively reveal detailed aging information previously difficult to discern with the naked eye, such as underglaze cracks, carcass inhomogeneities, and traces of joints or repairs, thereby complementing the shortcomings of traditional authentication methods. Its establishment of a multispectral database and AI interpretation model enhances the objectivity and reproducibility of authentication, while also increasing the speed and accuracy of identification. Even for porcelain with minimal plain decoration, this system can reliably interpret it through microstructural comparison, providing practical and forward-looking technical support for porcelain authenticity and age verification.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment discloses an artificial intelligence-based porcelain recognition system, which includes:

[0038] Short-wave infrared camera module, used to collect infrared transmission images of porcelain in the 760nm to 1mm band;

[0039] Visible light photography module, used to obtain visible light images of the porcelain surface;

[0040] Image synchronization control module ensures that the short infrared camera module and the visible light camera module capture images synchronously at the same angle and position;

[0041] The AI ​​image processing module, based on a deep learning architecture, analyzes the glaze reflection characteristics, body material reaction characteristics, and aging structure differences of the dual-spectral image, and compares them with the annotation database to output the kiln, age, and authenticity determination results of the porcelain.

[0042] To ensure data quality, the system's operating manual specifies that shortwave infrared image capture must fully capture the interface between the porcelain surface and the base to avoid missing subtle aging features. The operating manual requires that image capture include the contact surface between the porcelain surface and the base to prevent forgeries where new porcelain meets old base. For plain porcelain, detailed decorative details such as engravings, prints, or decals should be preserved during imaging to enhance AI comparison accuracy. All images must be captured repeatedly at a fixed angle and distance to serve as the basis for comparison and archiving.

[0043] Furthermore, the short infrared camera module is provided with an InGaAs sensor, and the wavelength coverage range of the InGaAs sensor includes the 900-1700 nanometer band;

[0044] The visible light photography module is provided with a CCD sensor, and the CCD sensor is used for multi-angle image acquisition in the visible light band of 400-700 nanometers.

[0050] Furthermore, the porcelain identification system of this embodiment also includes:

[0051] The multi-spectral UV detection unit integrates a 365nm long-wave UV lamp and a 254nm short-wave UV lamp to identify abnormal reactions of fluorescent agents and use the detection results as exclusion conditions for analysis by the AI ​​image processing module.

[0052] In combination with the first aspect, further, the short-wave infrared camera module and the visible light photography module are integrated into an adjustable slide rail bracket, and the bracket is equipped with a laser positioner and an angle encoder;

[0053] The slide rail bracket is provided with a standard light source box, which is used to provide a uniform lighting environment with a color temperature of 2000±50K;

[0054] The device has a built-in image alignment algorithm that automatically corrects the pixel-level spatial matching of bispectral images.

[0055] Example 2

[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a porcelain identification method based on artificial intelligence, which includes the following steps:

[0057] Through the image synchronization control module, the short-wave infrared image and visible light image of the porcelain are obtained in the same spatial coordinate system.

[0058] Extract glaze penetration features from shortwave infrared images, including body joint marks, internal repair areas, and material aging gradients;

[0059] Perform style matching analysis between the glaze color and patterns of visible light images and the historical kiln feature database;

[0060] By integrating dual-spectral feature data through the AI ​​image processing module, an identification report is generated that includes the probability of age, kiln ownership and authenticity level.

[0061] In summary, the present invention, through dual-spectral integration of shortwave infrared and visible light, combined with AI image processing and analysis, can effectively reveal detailed aging information previously difficult to discern with the naked eye, such as underglaze cracks, carcass inhomogeneities, and traces of joints or repairs, thereby complementing the shortcomings of traditional identification methods. Its establishment of a multispectral database and AI interpretation model can enhance the objectivity and reproducibility of identification, and improve the speed and accuracy of identification. Even for porcelain with minimal plain decoration, this system can reliably interpret it through microstructure comparison, providing practical and forward-looking technical support for the authentication of porcelain authenticity and age.
