This work presents a novel algorithm using color contrast enhancement and lacuna texture synthesis is proposed for the virtual restoration of ancient Chinese paintings. Color based on saturation de-saturation performed in u'v'Y space, to change value chromaticity diagram, adaptive histogram equalization then adopted adjust luminance component. Additionally, this new patching method Markov Random Field (MRF) model synthesis. Eliminating undesirable aged painting patterns, such as stains,...
Significance Human evolution through the Middle to Late Pleistocene in East Asia has been seen as reflecting diverse groups and discontinuities vs. a continuity of form an evolving population. New (∼300,000 y old) human remains from Hualongdong (HLD), China, provide further evidence for regional variation biology Asian archaic humans. The HLD 6 skull is notable its low wide neurocranial vault pronounced brow ridge, but less projecting face modest chin. Along with isolated teeth, provides...
The Nihewan Basin (40°N) in North China is a rich source of Early Pleistocene Paleolithic sites and thus key area for studying early human evolution high‐latitude (from an perspective) East Asia. Here high‐resolution magnetostratigraphic investigation carried out on fluvio‐lacustrine section the northeastern Basin, which contains Feiliang Lanpo sites. Paleomagnetic results suggest that this records lower portion Brunhes polarity chron upper Matuyama chron. Furthermore, Jaramillo subchron...
The Shuidonggou site cluster in northern China contains 12 different early prehistoric sequences with great potential to cast light on the transition Upper Palaeolithic behaviour East Asia. Here researchers present latest results from Locality 2, reporting seven occupation levels hearths, animal bone and diverse industries. Although previously compared European sequences, new work proposes a trajectory of development. Distinctive macroblade technology arrived area, possibly Mongolia or...
Organized flaking techniques to obtain predetermined stone tools have been traced back the early Acheulean (also known as mode 2) in Africa and are seen indicative of emergence advanced technical abilities in-depth planning skills among humans. Here, we report one earliest examples prepared core technology archaeological record, at Cenjiawan (CJW) site Nihewan basin China, dated 1.1 Mya. The operational schemes reconstructed from CJW refit sets, together with shaping patterns observed...
The Early Pleistocene archaeological evidence from the fluvio-lacustrine sequence of Nihewan Basin (North China) offers an excellent opportunity to explore early human evolution and behavior in a temperate setting East Asia, following earliest 'Out Africa'. Here we present first comprehensive study Feiliang (FL) site, with emphasis on sequence, site integrity, stone artifact assemblages. Magnetostratigraphic dating results show that humans occupied ca. 1.2 Ma. Archaeological deposits were...
