Character Recognition

IIT Powai has a techfest every year sometimes in Jan. This year its from 20-22 jan, there are a lot of events to participate in but most involed creating some sort of robots. My knowledge about bot making is limited to creating AIM chat bots:) so nothing in there for me. But we liked the event on handwriting recongnition its for hindi alphabet. The sytem we designed is a bit slow for now but i think it will improve. Any ways we sent the abstract yesterday lets see how it turns out to be.

Semantic Web Tags and More

One of the ways people can organise information better and help others search for it is by using tags. Meta data can help solve many problems related to semantics and appears to be a easy way to avoid more formal ontology matching which has its own problems. Things are heating up in the semantic web (SW) with lot of people coming up with new ideas to use the semantic web(SW). I recently had a few good discussions on the semantic web mailing list maintained by w3c. I found a rather nice use of the semantics in encoding for database compression and security. You can download the whitepaper at about semantic encoding in databases at the above link.

Ps: I deceied to tag my posts...:)
