Abstract

The study of oracle bone inscriptions has always been a significant subject for promoting the research of Chinese character culture in China. China has conducted research on the informatization processing of oracle bone inscriptions for over three decades and established several representative databases. This paper specifically lists five major existing domestic oracle bone inscription databases and their data collection categories. Through an in-depth analysis of the current status of digital technology's intervention in oracle bone inscription research, it is concluded that the construction of oracle bone inscription databases using artificial intelligence exhibits characteristics of automation, intelligence, and high-speed processing. This is of profound positive significance for integrating existing oracle bone inscription research achievements, promoting the disciplinary development of oracle bone inscriptions, and facilitating the dissemination of Chinese character culture. Therefore, strengthening the in-depth exploration of oracle bone inscription digitization and applying emerging technologies to the construction of oracle bone inscription databases have become the future development trends of oracle bone inscription research.
