Fig. 5: Case study of two not connected rejoined fragments H30107 and H30109.
From: A multi-modal dataset and method for bone-level association prediction in oracle bone inscriptions
The fragments, labelled H30106, H30107, H30108, H30109, and H30110, are all from the Oracle Bone Inscription Collection19, and are rejoined as from the same source bone. Sentence a) from H30109 and sentence b) from H30107 are basically identical in sentence structure and theme. These divinatory sentences read “Divination: the king of Shang should not perform rain sacrifice in July'', and the styles of the character glyphs are very consistent between the two fragments. Based on the proposed method, this pair achieves an association score of 0.9550, ranking within the top 5.81% of all sentence pairs in the test dataset, which follow a 1:10 ratio of pairs from the same source bone to randomly generated cross-bone pairs. The hand-drawn illustrations are provided solely for explanatory purposes and are not included in the dataset.
