Hello,

I would like to work on *"**GSoC_2015 : Better Accessibility for Okular"*.  I
have also mailed the mentors mentioned (*Mr. Albert and Mr. Frederik*) on
the ideas page. I have a prior experience of working on a related problem
wherein I have created *Hidden Markov Models* for detecting the varied
speech word samples with ~*95%* accuracy.The code for the same was
developed in C++ language.

This project has fascinated me and I have also worked on deep neural
networks, whose recent advancement has enabled Baidu for creating
benchmarks in voice related inputs. Hence I am really excited to take up
this idea as my GSoC project. I have the following thoughts on how to deal
with this project :

1. To preserve the semantics, and other NLP related tasks, one could use
the Hidden Markov Model to extend the states for the speech samples.
(However, this can have the problem associated with the training of the
sample set, which would take relatively longer of time)

2. To employ Deep Learning technique (window-based approach) using
Artificial Neural Network to enable the Semantic Role Labeling in a much
faster and precise manner, which has a theoretically simple approach but
rigorous code has to be written.

3. Detecting the text word size and then predicting if the semantics
associated is a heading or a new point, for the matter. This would employ
the usage of data structure such that it has the past k word sizes, current
word size and color, apart from the following k1 words' sizes (this
abstraction would also suffice, which would be a build-up from the usual
robotic text-to-speech conversion softwares)

I have *cloned* *git://anongit.kde.org/okular
<http://anongit.kde.org/okular>* and have successfully* built* the same
after resolving the dependencies.
Could you please suggest how I should go about in further structuring the
problem statement?

I have a very good developing experience with C++, Python and Java; and I
am thorough and fluent in the same. I have also used system version control
for my projects during my internships.
I would be obliged if I could be guided to fine-tune my approach for this
GSoC project.
