dollarN 1.2.2

Implementation of the $N 2D gesture recognizer

dollarN

Python implementation of $N, the 2D multistrokes recognizer

http://depts.washington.edu/acelab/proj/dollar/ndollar.html

The $N Multistroke Recognizer is a 2-D multistroke recognizer designed for rapid prototyping of gesture-based user interfaces. $N is built upon the $1 Unistroke Recognizer. $N automatically generalizes examples of multistrokes to encompass all possible stroke orders and directions, meaning you can make and define multistrokes using any stroke order and direction you wish, provided you begin at either endpoint of each component stroke, and $N will generalize so as to recognize other ways to articulate that same multistroke. A version of $N utilizing Protractor, optional here, improves $N's speed.

Features

• Python 3
• Numpy

Example of use:

import dollarN as dN

r = dN.recognizer()

#Adding gestures: multistrokes with names
r.add_gesture('U', [   [[0.,5.], [0.,0.], [5.,0.], [5.,5.]]        ]) #1 strokes
r.add_gesture('X', [   [[0.,0.], [5.,5.]], [[0.,5.], [5.,0.]]      ]) #2 strokes
r.add_gesture('T', [   [[0.,5.], [5.,5.]], [[2.5,0.], [2.5,5.]]    ]) #2 strokes

#Launching a recognition
test = [[[0, 5.2], [5.,5.]], [[2.5, 0.], [2.5,5.]]]
print( r.recognize(test) )
