The improvement of the Support system to decode excavated historical documents and the development of the comprehensive research center database

除了通过大大提高字符识别精度将解码支持系统“Mokkanshop”提升到更高的操作级别之外，还实现了在多个远程位置之间实时协作共享数据的系统投入运行的前景。此外，还通过以下方式实现了将《木版文字词典》发展成为研究的核心数据库：（1）提供有效的数据积累手段，使用注释工具和开发用于文化财产可见光和红外线摄影的特殊透镜;（2）丰富各类知识库，如考古特征的年代数据库，（3）采用Adobe Flash技术，制作外文版;（4）与东京大学历史研究所共同实现综合检索系统，并将该技术应用于《墨陶文字辞典》，使系统更加通用。通过这些成就，木制文献研究的专业知识正在广泛回馈社会，木制文献的“知识螺旋”前景已经实现，其中研究成果被用作开辟新知识之路的工具。

In addition to taking the decoding support system "Mokkanshop" to a higher order of operation by greatly enhancing its character recognition precision, the prospect was achieved of putting into operation a system of real-time collaborative sharing of data among multiple remote locations. In addition, development of the Wooden Tablet Character Dictionary into a core atabase for research has been realized through (1) providing means for efficient data accumulation, with an annotation tool and the development of a special lens for visible and infrared light photography of cultural properties, (2) enriching groups of knowledge bases such as a database of the chronological ages of archaeological features, (3) incorporating Adobe Flash technology and making a foreign language version, and (4) making the system more all-purpose by actualizing an integrated search system together with the University of Tokyo's Historiographical Institute, and by applying the technology to the Ink-inscribed Pottery Character Dictionary. Through these achievements, know-how from research on wooden documents is being given back to society in broad fashion, and prospects have been gained for a "knowledge spiral" regarding wooden documents, in which research results are utilized as tools for opening paths to new knowledge.
