Abstract

Background: Academia has recently shown significant interest in the scientific organization of vast amounts of data related to outstanding cultural heritage using biological research methods. This study explores the topic of gene identification and atlas compilation of traditional Minnan temple murals. Purpose: This study aims to utilize gene identification technology to extract the core elemental factors of traditional Minnan temple murals. The research has developed a specialized talent cultivation system and has constructed a comprehensive gene map of Minnan temple murals. This has resulted in the creation of a systematic, convenient, and visualized database that scholars can use to study the art of Minnan temple murals. Methods: The paper employs the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to create chord diagrams for the relative weight analysis of core elements in Minnan temple murals. Gene identification techniques are then used to extract four core elements, laying the foundation for constructing a gene map of Minnan temple murals. Results: Compared to traditional data collection methods, gene identification technology offers a broader application range and higher accuracy in information collection. The gene map is more scientifically advanced and convenient than common databases, enabling researchers to efficiently access the needed information. Conclusion: The construction of the gene map for traditional Minnan temple murals provides extensive data support for historians, mural artists, and researchers of Minnan culture.
