Gesture Recognition with Line Integrals
By: Justin Meiners (2020)
Line integrals measure the extent to which a path agrees with a vector (directional) field. This provides an easy way to implement handwriting/tracing/gesture recognition. Although not as accurate as fancy ML methods, it still can recognize a wide varation in drawings with good accuracy and is versatile in application. However, this would not work for OCR applications as the direction of the strokes is an essential component of recognition.
The line integral and total length of the path both contribute to the scoring. This allows "5" and "8" to be distinguished. The centroid of the path is used for adjusting position.
Try drawing a number (1-9) in the box to see if it detects it.
To make a new glyph:
- Clear the Canvas
Hold SHIFT and draw the character 5-8 times. Try to keep the position the same as before. Naturally you will add a little variation.
- Optional: Press smooth a few times, then redraw a few more times.
- Type in the string your glyph represents and Save.
