This project addresses the intersection of history and technology by utilizing AI techniques to bring historical photographs to life. The objective is to do research and develop techniques. By transforming static images of individuals from the 20th-century Ottoman Bank, the project aims to create a bridge between the past and the present. Students are expected to demonstrate the visual aspects of history and provide a perspective on the daily lives of people from that era. Students will learn how Generative Adversarial Networks generate a wide range of new, synthetic data types. The topics include, but are not limited to:
–Artificial Intelligence
–Machine Learning
–Deep Learning
–Generative AI
–Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)
