Determination of language families using deep learning

원문 초록

We use a c-GAN (convolutional generative adversarial) neural network to analyze transliterated text fragments of extant, dead comprehensible, and one dead non-deciphered (Cypro-Minoan) language to establish linguistic affinities. The paper is agnostic with respect to translation and/or deciphering. However, there is hope that the proposed approach can be useful for decipherment with more sophisticated neural network techniques.
