TL;DR: A novel deep learning architecture is proposed that takes as input the sensor data and computes an approximate segmentation map of the obstacle and proposes a novel solution to the inverse physical problem of identifying an underwater obstacle using the acoustic wave equation.

TL;DR: This study establishes that they were most likely written by two scribes who recorded the shipments in Samaria and indicated widespread literacy in the kingdom of Judah a century and half to two centuries later, ca.
Abstract: Past excavations in Samaria, capital of biblical Israel, yielded a corpus of Hebrew ink on clay inscriptions (ostraca) that documents wine and oil shipments to the palace from surrounding localities. Many questions regarding these early 8th century BCE texts, in particular the location of their composition, have been debated. Authorship in countryside villages or estates would attest to widespread literacy in a relatively early phase of ancient Israel's history. Here we report an algorithmic investigation of 31 of the inscriptions. Our study establishes that they were most likely written by two scribes who recorded the shipments in Samaria. We achieved our results through a method comprised of image processing and newly developed statistical learning techniques. These outcomes contrast with our previous results, which indicated widespread literacy in the kingdom of Judah a century and half to two centuries later, ca. 600 BCE.
