Abstract
Digitized methodologies in the recent era contribute to various fields of automation that used to hold different interests and meanings of human life. Buildings with historical significance, cultural values, and beliefs are becoming an interdisciplinary field of interest, engaging more computer scientists nowadays. Such structures need more attention towards reconstructing their values using a flavor of computerized tools instead of brickwork directly. Due to the wear of time, the tiles and engravings of most of the historical monuments are on the verge of ruin, endangering significant historical values. In this survey, we rebuild the values by delving deep into the device and methodologies by providing a comprehensive understanding of emerging fields and some experimental decisions. We discuss heritage restoration from some essential papers on 3D reconstruction, image inpainting, IoT-based methods, genetic algorithms, and image processing. The survey explains Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision-based methods for various restoration tasks in the related field. We divide this into certain parts contributing to different fields that restore cultural heritage. Moreover, we infer that the techniques will be faster, cheaper, and more beneficial to the context of image reconstruction in the near future.
