Does anyone know of an open source Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) library? There seems to be plenty out there for OCR but I am focusing on recognizing handwriting and would love it if there was an open source solution out there.
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Finding a good Handwriting recognition library in Java has been a bit elusive.
I'd like to compare both commercial and any free options, along with any insights to strengths/weaknesses of each.
Thanks in Advance.

I have a new project that invloves on-line character recognition (recognizing characters as they are written). My idea is that each character is defined by a number of strokes that fit a mathmatical model. For instance, 'A' could be defined by three linear strokes; 'O' could be defined as a single circular stroke.
The reason for using li...
Hello ,
Is there any specific algorithm for handwriting recognition?
The algorithm should recognize the hand written letter.
Any one could help would be greatly appreciated in advance.
Thank you

Reading a paper, I'm having difficulty understanding the algorithm described:
Given a black and white digital image of a handwriting sample, cut out a single character to analyze. Since this can be any size, the algorithm needs to take this into account (if it will be easier, we can assume the size is 2^n x 2^m).
Now, the description s...
I have a set of Microsoft ISF (Ink Serialized Format) images, which I am attempting to convert to PNGs to include in a web page. I have successfully used the C# package Microsoft.Ink to draw the ink to a Bitmap and save as PNG:
byte[] data; // data has the raw bytes of the ISF file
Ink ink = new Ink();
Renderer renderer = new Renderer()...
I'm looking for handwriting recognition solution. I've found one here, which is a flash application. What's the principle of how it works? Does it make any queries to db to find the character?
Thank you!

I've been trying to learn about Neural Networks for a while now, and I can understand some basic tutorials online. Now i want to develop online handwritten recognition using Neural Network. So i haven't any idea where to start? And i need a very good instruction. In finally i'm java programmer.
What do you suggest I do?

Are there any free OCR libraries that work with PHP? Perhaps there is a different way to do OCR on a website. If so please share.
EDIT: Python is also acceptable.
EDIT2: I'm working with a Linux server, ideally.

My software needs to read a fixed-length handwritten number.
While I could use a general-purpose library like Tesseract, I am sure there is something smarter. Tesseract will probably misinterpret some of the 1 or 7 as I or l, whereas a software that expects only numbers would not.
Knowing that there are only numbers (American-English w...
We are looking for a handwriting control with similar functionality as journal. We would use journal if I could find a way to embed it into a winform. We used Agilix Infinotes however it is buggy when you have 8+ pages of notes written up, not to mention very slow at converting to text. They have apparently stopped supporting infinote...
Windows Vista and 7 both contain the ability to personlize the handwriting recognition. You can train the tablet to recognize your specific style.
I know the personlization is used by the Native Windows Tablet Input Panel (TIP), the OS's handwriting control.
Does the .NET SDK provide access to this personlization data so that my ....
Hi,
I need a simple (preferably open source) handwriting recognition library for the iPhone/iPad. I only need to recognize numbers, which should make this much easier.
Any ideas?

Hi,
What is the best way to implement handwritten character recognition in iPhone?
I'm thinking as follows:
First, taking a picture of handwritten character.
Second, recognizing image of handwritten character, and then outputs a text.

I am trying to add handwriting recognition to my application, I see that with Windows XP the end user needs to have the Tablet PC edition for the recognition to work.
However it is a little ambiguous at to the state of Windows 7 users.

I would like to start on Chinese hand-writing recognition program for IPhone...but I couldn't find any library or API that can help me to do so. It's hard for me to write the algorithm myself because of my time span.
Some of suggestion recommended that I should make use of a back-end server to do the recognition work. But I don't know h...
