Israeli scientists have identified the names of over 5 million Holocaust victims – this was made possible through the use of artificial intelligence. The entire database is available online in several languages, allowing families to find those who went missing during World War II. This is reported by DW, according to UNN.
Details
Israeli researchers reported that they were able to accurately identify the names of 5 million out of over 6 million Jews killed by the Nazis during the Holocaust.
With the help of artificial intelligence and machine learning, it is planned to find about 250,000 more names. Millions of documents, which are too voluminous for manual research, will be analyzed.
– DW writes, citing the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Complex in Jerusalem.
It is noted that reaching the 5 million name mark is the result of seven decades of work. All cards are available online on the museum's website, whose mission is to restore the identity of people destroyed during World War II.
Yad Vashem created its own AI-based software back in May 2024. It allows analyzing documents, film reels, gravestones, and other sources.
Victim names and personal files are available online in six languages. This helps families find missing relatives and honor their memory.
Recall
It was previously reported that the World Holocaust Remembrance Center (Yad Vashem) is working to identify the names of victims previously lost among 230 million text documents.
