A Study of Buddhist Visualization in Central Asia Utilizing Digital Image Restoration Technology

在东京、别泽克利克和拜西哈尔（吐鲁番地区）以及齐齐尔、库姆图拉和苏巴什（库车地区）的一些洞穴中拍摄了照片。这些图像经过了数字处理，以便获得这些洞穴中褪色的绘画和铭文的更清晰的图像。一些难以辨认的铭文已经变得清晰可辨。此外，还研究了可视化的各个方面。特别是以《阿弥陀佛观像经》为基础，正在进行的转化图的研究取得了进展。

Pictures were taken in a few caves at Toyok, Bezeklik, and Baixihar(in the Turfan area) and at Qizil, Qumtura, and Subashi(in the Kucha area). These images have been digitally processed in order to obtain clearer images of the faded paintings and inscriptions in these caves. Some illegible inscriptions have already become legible.In addition, various aspects of visualization were examined. In particular, there has been progress in the ongoing research of the transformation tableaux based on the Amitayus Visualization Sutra.
