3rd International Conference TMM_CH
At the 3rd International Conference TMM_CH, held from 20–23 March 2023 at the Eugenides Foundation in Athens, Greece, Charalampos Zafeiropoulos, a PhD candidate from NTUA, represented the YADES project with a presentation titled “Evaluating the Effectiveness of Unsupervised and Supervised Techniques for Identifying Deteriorations on Cultural Heritage Monuments Using Hyper-Spectral Imagery.” This high-profile conference brought together interdisciplinary experts focused on cultural heritage preservation, particularly in contexts affected by conflict, and emphasized the role of culture in promoting mutual understanding and peace.

Zafeiropoulos’s presentation highlighted research undertaken within the YADES framework, focusing on the comparative application of machine learning techniques—both supervised and unsupervised—for detecting material deterioration in cultural heritage structures. Leveraging hyperspectral imagery, the study demonstrated how advanced remote sensing and data analysis tools can support early intervention strategies for monument conservation. The presentation was well-received by the scientific community and contributed to advancing the dialogue on integrating artificial intelligence and Earth Observation technologies in heritage risk assessment. The conference provided an important dissemination opportunity to position YADES at the intersection of technological innovation, cultural heritage protection, and peace-building through science.
