[Indic-computing-users] Lipi Toolkit for Online Handwriting Recognition

[Madhvanath, S. (HP L. India) <sr...@hp...>]

Dear colleagues,

You would be happy to know that HP Labs India has recently released into
open source, Lipi Toolkit, a toolkit for building handwriting
recognition engines for different languages and scripts.  More
information about this effort and versions for both Windows and Linux
are available from:

http://www.hpl.hp.com/india/lipitk

OR

http://liptk.sourceforge.net

We are very interested in people using the toolkit for exploring natural
user interfaces, research in handwriting recognition algorithms,
pen-based applications and solutions and building handwriting
recognition technoogy for the various Indic languages and scripts - in
both academic and commercial settings.=20

To suppport this, we have released the code under a MIT (BSD-like) open
source license which places no restrictions on commercial use, and there
is no obligation to put modifications back.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you need more information.

With kind regards,
Sriganesh

ps: We have also made available some Tamil handwriting data as part of a
recent Tamil handwriting recognition competition that we co-organized,
