Plan for Asian language support #11

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
CJK languages are not usable with CellWriter, although in theory they
should work fine. Either a pretrained database of Kanji should be developed
or an alternate recognition pathway for these languages could also do the
trick. Either way, need a plan.

One possibility is integrating StrokeDic:

the kanji stroke order font (http://www.users.waitrose.com/~potato/index.html) 
is
built from SVG data.  perhaps that could be used for training?

The stroke order font isn't necessarily drawn in the right order. It is simply a
Kanji font with the stroke order numbers on it -- this is not a format we can 
easily
use. I have my doubts as to how many Kanji are actually in it also, it seems to 
be
only the Japanese kanji in any case.

Oh, I meant using the SVG data that the font was automatically generated from 
(see
the README in the font download), but yes, I believe it's only Japanese kanji, 
kana,
roman letters etc, but that would be enough for a lot of users...

What does the SVG data look like? Are the strokes in the data always in the 
correct
order or is it in whatever order it was drawn in .. with the 1s, 2s, 3s, etc 
attached?

The author previously wrote "I think the SVG dataset I have includes animation
infomation and also puts the stroke numbers on the strokes." so I guess it's a 
stroke
order animation, in the correct order, but I haven't seen it myself...
