## Papers

1. **[Deciphering Undersegmented Ancient Scripts Using Phonetic Prior](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tacl-2021-luo-deciphering-undersegmented-ancient-scripts-phonetic/)** *(2021)* The paper asks how to match an unsegmented or undersegmented script against the vocabulary of a known language when the language family of the lost script is not known.
2. **[Neural Decipherment via Minimum-Cost Flow: From Ugaritic to Linear B](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/acl-2019-luo-neural-decipherment-minimum-cost-flow/)** *(2019)* The paper deciphers a lost language without parallel text: the words of the lost language are aligned with cognates in a known, related language.
