В целях реализации поставленной Президентом страны задачи по восстановлению исторической справедливости в отношении всех безвинно пострадавших казахстанцев в период советских политических репрессий, в данном проекте на основе анализа введенных в научный оборот информативных и репрезентативных архивных фондов, а также созданных научных обобщающих трудов, разработана и внедрена концепция 3D реконструкции трагических страниц советской истории Казахстана.
1
В рамках междисциплинарного направления «Цифровая история» («Digital history») разработать наглядные средства репрезентации, визуализации трагических уроков истории, связанных с политическими репрессиями и голодом в Казахстане в 20-80-е годы XX века.
1
— Провести историографический обзор по проблемам цифровизации исторической науки, обобщить опыт зарубежных исследователей «цифровой истории», особое внимание уделить методикам виртуальности при реконструкции объектов исторической памяти.
— Составить инфографику в формате таймлайна, визуализирующую историю политических репрессий и массового голода по хронологической ретроспекции.
— Разработать и внедрить концепцию 3D реконструкции динамики полного и достоверного процесса рукотворного голода в республике по фотографиям 30-х годов XX века на тему «Казахстан 90 лет назад: голод 1932–1933 годов и бегство от голода», выработать методические рекомендации по использованию 3D исторической реконструкции в образовательном процессе.

Project Implementation Stages
— Identification of the human silhouette from real front and side photographs;
— Detection of key joint points from real front and side photographs;
— Integration of machine learning modules into the web service;
— Determination of anthropometric characteristics from real photographs;
— Construction of a three-dimensional virtual model of the client based on real photographs;
— Development of a web service for determining human anthropometric characteristics from photographs.
Implementation Stages:
1. Historiographical and source-based analysis of the problem;
2. Generalization of the experience of foreign researchers in “digital history”;
3. Preparation of content for infographics on the history of repression and famine in Kazakhstan in the 1920s–1980s and technical design of the infographic in timeline format;
4. Development and implementation of a concept for 3D reconstruction of famine in the republic based on photographs from the 1930s on the topic “Kazakhstan 90 years ago: the famine of 1932–1933 and forced migration”;
5. Validation (approbation) of research results.
