This week's seminar will be by Prof. Haida Liang (NTU). Haida will be arriving on campus a little after 3pm, so we will only have the regular seminar and wine and cheese. Haida's talk is titled:</div>

the universe while archaeology studies the history of the human past. The talk will explore the benefits of interdisciplinary research from fundamental science (e.g. Astrophysics) to applied science and Engineering and how applications to cultural heritage
materials can inspire the development of instruments that are useful for industrial monitoring. Inspired by ideas from Astronomy, various remote sensing and interferometric imaging techniques have been developed for cultural heritage material analysis to study
history and help art conservation. As the volume of data collected is becoming too large to manage using traditional image analysis methods, machine learning methods are developed to analyse data from automated high resolution large scale surveys of wall paintings
such as those in cave temples along the Silk Road. This talk will discuss some of the unexpected contribution of astronomy to the field of heritage science including conservation science and archaeological science.</span></p>
