UNIPEN
UNIPEN is a project of data exchange and benchmarks for on-line handwriting
recognition, started at the initiative of the technical committee 11 of
the IAPR. The data of concern may include handprint and cursive from various
alphabets, signatures and gestures captured by a digitizing device providing
the pen trajectory. Several tens of companies and universities have already
joined UNIPEN and participated in defining a standard data format. Currently
a database of 5 million handwritten characters has been donated by 40 companies
and universities. NIST is handling the data cleaning and distribution and
the organization of a benchmark.
The first Unipen benchmark is currently in phase zero: the protocol
is being tested with a development test set. See
http://hwr.nici.kun.nl/unipen/scrawls/unipen-scrawl-8.html
for details.
Take a look at
the Java package of the Unipen Interpreter and its documentation.
