Stephen,
An automated assembling of torn documents (2D) will support philologists,
archaeologists and forensic experts. Especially if the amount of fragments is
large (up to 1000), a human puzzle solver will not be feasible due to cost and
time. Ancient manuscripts may be broken due to bad storage conditions, or
documents are manually torn to make the information unreadable. Disasters
like the collapse of the historical archive of the city of cologne (Germany),
where a large part of the archived manuscripts have been destroyed, need
algorithms to reconstruct torn manuscripts and books.
