Artificial Intelligence for Museums

Launching an artificial intelligence project in your museum

Artificial intelligence is transforming museum practices by facilitating the documentation and indexing of collections.TEKLIA develops AI solutions tailored to heritage institutions to enrich metadata, explore artworks through their content, and improve access to collections through processes controlled and validated by professional teams.

Collections management

Digital exploitation of documentary resources

Apply artificial intelligence to facilitate access to your documentation and to bring out the most useful data.


OCR/HTR Transcriptions

Add an OCR/HTR layer to your document collections to facilitate exploration and find the information you need faster. 

Named Entities Extraction

The specific extraction of names, dates, places and themes that interest you allows you to enrich your document indexing.

Digital transition of documentary resources

We offer migration and matching of your paper document collections with your collection management software. 

Indexing of collections

Save time on the inventory of your collections thanks to the automatic production of data and the digital consultation of your archives.


Metadata enrichment

Generative AI can be used to produce new metadata, in particular for the inventory of large archaeological or decorative arts collections.

Indexing of the collection according to a predefined thesaurus

Apply your own thesaurus to automatically enrich the documentation of your collection. 

Transcription of data tables or inventories

Transform your registers, inventories or checklists into digitally usable databases.

Collections diffusion

Accessibility and interpretation 

Enhance the inclusivity of your interpretation content by associating it with adapted and multilingual descriptions or intuitive visualizations. 


Generation of artwork descriptions

To accelerate the inventory of large undescribed funds and their online presence, we apply the generation of descriptions according to your rules and vocabulary.

Multilingual translation

Discovering your collections is no longer limited by language barriers.We offer translations tailored to the field of art and heritage.

Visualizations and infographics

Help your audiences understand your collections thanks to automated visualizations and infographics (map of locations, timeline, mosaic by theme, etc.).

Semantic and visual search in collections

Open your collections to searches that go beyond simply indexing content.Your audiences can make queries in natural language and get more specific results.


Searching the content of artworks

Computer vision allows you to search directly into the visual and semantic aspect of your works.Your audiences can search for the themes, subjects, colors or patterns of their choice according to their inspiration.

Similarity search and clustering

We propose grouping images that have similar attributes to reveal major trends or to find images that are closest to each other. 

Multimodal text and image search

Break down traditional silos between text and image with multimodal search for complex and heterogeneous collections.

Collections and artworks

Images of the artworks (2D/3D)

Photographic collection

Prints, negatives, contact sheets...

Handwritten, typed, and printed archives

Registers, inventories, index cards, letters...

Documentation

Artwork files, scientific publications, catalogues...

A sovereign, controlled and sustainable technology.

What budget and timeframe are needed for an automated processing project using artificial intelligence?


TEKLIA provides you with a framework document that will allow you to go into detail about writing specifications for your project.


Specifications

How can you ensure that the data produced is adapted to the specific characteristics of your collection?


TEKLIA's data enrichment projects are always tailored to your specific needs. We take into account the nature of your documents and your performance and data sovereignty requirements to deliver state-of-the-art solutions.

Coming soon: Astrae Collections


Astrae Collections is the discovery platform developed by TEKLIA to explore heritage collections using artificial intelligence. Natural language search, visual similarity, multimodal search and contextual visualizations offer a new experience for consulting works and documentary collections.

The similarity search technologies offered by TEKLIA are derived from work carried out within the framework of the HikarIA project with the Guimet Museum.
