[feature] Drawing and handwriting recognition
mattakamatsu opened this issue · 1 comments
Do you have any recommendations on what drawing- and handwriting-recognition tool would integrate well with perfect-freehand? E.g. the options in https://github.com/WICG/handwriting-recognition/blob/main/explainer.md . Would love your opinion, thanks!
I haven't really looked into this, though I'm excited to see movement on handwriting recognition as a browser API. My hope is that by the time it ships, we'll have an equally effective image recognition via AI. I've experimented with a few models (such as https://huggingface.co/microsoft/trocr-large-handwritten) and they don't really seem to be ready yet.
What would be even better is to train the models on the raw data in this library rather than an image generated from the final strokes. Not sure what that might look like though. In any case, recognition would not be part of this library (which just deals with the "stroke" polygon), so I'm closing the issue. Thanks for the interesting question!
