Abstract. At an exclusively online university such as the UOC the necessity for communicating mathematics in the web is pressing. In an environment that does not allow for face to face communication, things implicitly communicated when using a blackboard, such as the canonical verbalization or handwriting of formulae, are lost and become a big obstacle. Also, the editorial process for the creation of learning/teaching resources is suited for a generalist approach and, consequently, needs such as...
Earlier work has examined the frequency of symbol and expression use in mathematical documents for various purposes including mathematical handwriting recognition and forming the most natural output from computer algebra systems. This work has found, unsurprisingly, that the particulars of symbol and expression vary from area to area and, in particular, between different top-level subjects of the 2000 Mathematical Subject Classification. If the area of mathematics is known in advance, then an area-specific...
We present a summary of our work in progress related to mathematical formulae recognition. Our approach is based on the structural construction paradigm and two-dimensional grammars. It is a general framework and can be successfully used in the analysis of images containing objects exhibiting rich structural relations. In contrast to most of all other known approaches, the method does not treat symbols segmentation and structural analysis as two separate processes. This allows the system to solve...
In most cases the current on-line journals in mathematics are supplied in the form of PDF with print images of papers in the front and OCR’ed hidden texts behind to provide with search facilily using key words. The embedded hidden texts usually does not include good information about mathematical formulae in the papers. We can say that, for the future development of DML, it is desirable to include, in the digitised journals, more structured information of the content of mathematical papers, e.g....
For preparing and validating metadata for the Digital Mathematics Library DML-CZ, a new tool, the Metadata Editor, has been developed. This paper outlines the procedures for Linguistic and geographical localizations its components. Also mentioned are such aspects as dynamic generation of form editing based on the XML Schema, the validation procedures as well as support for semiautomatic procedures regarding quality assurance.
YADDA framework facilitates information exchange between digital document repositories. YaddaWeb, its web-based interface, provides browse and search functionalities. Content providers use DeskLight application to add or modify metadata and content. Internally, YADDA contains flexible repository aggregation mechanisms, multiple hierarchy support and full-text indexing capabilities. YADDA framework is an excellent solution for Open Access paradigm of content exchange. Migration of the Mathematical...
