Abstract
Abstract There are situations when someone finds a certain object or its remains. Particularly the second case is complicated, because having only a part of the element, it is difficult to identify the full object. In the case of archeological excavations, the fragment should be classified in order to know what we are looking at. Unfortunately, such classification may be a difficult task. Hence, it is essential to focus on certain features which define it, and then to classify the complete object. In this paper, we proposed creating a novel soft tree decision structure. The idea is based on soft sets. In addition, we have introduced convolutional networks to the nodes to make decisions based on graphic files. A new archeological item can be photographed and evaluated by the proposed technique. As a result, the object will be classified depending on the amount of information obtained to the appropriate class. If the object cannot be classified, the method will return individual features and possible class.
