RATA.SSR

While many approaches to digital ink recognition have been proposed, most lack flexibility and adaptability to provide acceptable recognition rates across a variety of problem spaces. Time and expert knowledge are required to build accurate recognizers for a new domain. This project uses selected algorithms from a data mining toolkit and a large feature library, to compose a tailored software component (Rata.SSR) that enables single stroke recognizer generation from a few example diagrams.

RATA is available for download with instructions on how to generate and use your own recognizer.
