[QTMoko]: Handwriting recognition and graffiti-like writing?
Guys, quick one for y'all.. Has anyone out there successfully trained (or patched) the handwriting recognition in QTMoko to recognise the old Palm-style graffiti (preferrably Graffiti version 1!) I'll try training it today, but if someones actually patched the code I'd love to hear about it.

I think it should be the package named ecore-evas. I'm on a business trip, so I don't have access to my freerunner and can't confirm this, but now that I think about it the efl libraries changed version recently. So I think Enscribi has to be recompiled for this version. I'll take a look at it and will put together a new package when I get home (will probably have time sometime early next week).

Hi Olof, any chance of having english support added to this? Otherwise (as a non-hacker) can I contribute anything that'd support you in adding english support? Russ 2009/2/14 Olof Sjobergh olo...@gmail.com Hi, This is to announce the first release of Enscribi, a new handwriting recognition input method I've been working on. The main focus, and the only thing supported for now, is writing Japanese and Chinese characters (and numbers, but numbers only won't get you far...). It uses the excellent Zinnia recognition engine for the actual recognition. If anyone is interested, please take a look. There's a project page at http://olofsj.github.com/enscribi/ with screenshots and some more information. There are packages on opkg.org for trying it out (only tested on FSO milestone 5).

Re: First release of Enscribi - handwriting recognition input method
Hi Olof, It looks good. I have installed it on SHR and set it up as keyboard, it works! Sometimes when I draw near the edge of the writing block and cross in and out of bounds twice, Enscribi will crash and I have to restart X to bring it back. It also pops up and error on booting up after I've set it to the default keyboard, though it will still work after that. I will continue to play with it.

Re: First release of Enscribi - handwriting recognition input method
Does it work at OM 2008.9 ? I install it on Om 2008. 9 , but I don't know how to initiate it . Olof Sjobergh ??: Hi, This is to announce the first release of Enscribi, a new handwriting recognition input method I've been working on. The main focus, and the only thing supported for now, is writing Japanese and Chinese characters (and numbers, but numbers only won't get you far...).

Re: First release of Enscribi - handwriting recognition input method
I'm glad there's a lot of interest in this. =) As for the poor results for Chinese characters, I suspect the character data for Chinese is not perfect. Personally I don't know any Chinese, so it's hard for me to check. However, for Japanese it works quite well, but there are some characters that are missing and have to be added. The data for the characters are from the Tomoe project (another handwriting recognition method), available at http://tomoe.sourceforge.jp. They also have a stroke editor that can be used to edit/add new characters. Yesterday I found and fixed the problem with inputting in Edje entry widgets. I sent the patch to the enlightenment devel list, but have attached it here as well for anyone interested in testing it. Patching and recompiling Ecore should make it possible to write in any program using Elementary or Edje. There's still a lot to improve, and any suggestions or patches are appreciated.

Re: handwriting recognition. was:Re: Dual touch display
There is also matchbox-stroke. It's in the openmoko repos. Just do: opkg install matchbox-stroke. I tried it on Om2008.12 and I like it. But the configuration file is incomplete, so it's impossible to enter many letters and characters. Even space was not configured, I configured it manually in the configuration file. So if someone would write a good configuration file for it, it should be usable. Matchbox-stroke puts a white space on the bottom of the screen. You don't need so much space to write a character. I think we could use the combination of handwriting and buttons. Maybe something like this - http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/2745/strokemg2.png (I made it with GIMP). The @#$ button would display an onscreen keyboard to enter special characters (because I tink its hard to remember the strokes for all the characters) and the mode button would toggle between number mode, lower case mode and upper case mode. I tink this should be usable with fingers too. I would do this myself, but I can't code :( I think that if we had a good handwriting recognition program, all the keyboard problems would be solved. At least for me. Because I used to have Sony Ericsson P800 and I really liked it's handwriting recognition. I could hold the phone in my hand and write the characters with the same hand's thumb. I lost the stylus of my P800 long time ago and I wasn't missing it at all. On Debian I tried cellwriter too. It works really good, but it's only usable with stylus.

For X, there is rosetta, but I am not sure any work has been done on it for a while http://handhelds.org/project/rosetta/ I've tried rosetta (on OM2007.2), but the training application needed some modifications to run at all because the application would not display itself properly (wrong assumptions about screen size). Rosetta is at least promising when tweaked and used together with a good word list. What makes it unusable is that the automatic keyboard adds to the screen space needed by rosetta and then there's simply not enough screen left for the main application (e.g. SMS editor) A workaround for this is to re-enable the keyboard toggle applet in /etc/matchbox/session as described in the wiki. (I have the matchbox keyboard running, but I guess it would be the same with multitap). Some simple general keyboard input method management would be really nice for OM. E.g. like an extended keyboard applet that shows and hides keyboard apps associated with the chosen input method. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: asu and handwriting recognition of qtopia
For 2007.2 users (and probably could be brought within ASU desktop easily) there is matchbox-stroke which seems to be quite a nice start and is configurable somewhat easily (if ran within terminal on FR it spits out the codes which are descriptors of the written letters so it could be added to shipped .xml file) the only problem on my 1st try to use it is that it doesn't have a mechanism to disappear from the screen (or at least I've not found it) -- it is always there. But I guess it should be doable (simply by duplicating some functionality from matchbox-keyboard for instance...) so it seems like a good candidate ;) someone indeed should just figur figure out a nice way to compose multiple input methods and implement convenient switching between them On Sat, 26 Jul 2008, arne anka wrote: is the handwriting recognition of qtopia available in asu or is there work going on to port it (or even use another handwriting recognition)? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- Yaroslav Halchenko Research Assistant, Psychology Department, Rutgers-Newark Student Ph.D. @ CS Dept.

Re: Openource handwriting recognition
Two separate quotes from the main website However, some Tablet PCs or PDAs may not have a pen button or any other convenient way to right-click. The alternative gesture to bring up the context menu is the hold-click. Press with the pen without moving for one second and the context menu will show up. If you start drawing ink, you have moved the pen too far. To insert a space, point the mouse cursor at the insertion hotspot at either the bottom or the top of the dividing line between cells. If you are pointing at the hotspot, arrows will appear at the top and bottom of the dividing line, click to insert a space. So yeah, they do talk about mousing over things, but they also talk about PDA/Tablets as well. Either way, this looks like a great stylus input method, but probably won't work too well for a finger input method. -Jonathon -Original Message- From: Brad Midgley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: List for OpenMoko community discussion community@lists.openmoko.org To: List for OpenMoko community discussion community@lists.openmoko.org Subject: Re: Openource handwriting recognition Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2007 13:40:26 -0600 looks like it was developed with an active digitizer...

Handwriting recognition (HWR)
What's the consensus on enabling and installing true handwriting recognition (HWR) on the Neo? Will there be a stylus application or utility or API that will process HWR? Though the original models were buggy, the final versions of Apple's Newton 2100 are believed by many (at newtontalk.net) to be second-to-none in their ability to perform HWR. Much of the work has already been done. One developer has written an emulator for it to run on a *NIX platform. I'd love to see it revived, because it works. One of my primary intents with this email is to get the right people (this community) in touch with the right people (the newtontalk community). The other is to ping the community on HWR.
