Hi Tarjei,
Thanks for you interest in ShapeLogic.
<Have you seen any good open source Bayesian classification packages
for Java?>
No, not that I can remember.
I was very excited about this when I read Pearl's book about Bayesian
network around 20 years ago:
Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems: Networks of Plausible
Inference.
I have not dabbled in this for quite a while.
<Also, do you think your system may be useful for recognizing font
sizes etc as well?>
ShapeLogic is a toolkit for declarative programming in image
processing, the letter recognition part was just a proof of concept.
Finding the font sizes should be simple just take the height of the
bounding box for the polygons that are letters.
The release of ShapeLogic 1.0 is a few days away. Here is a few
features:
* This is the first beta quality release.
* It should be a lot easier for the user to go in and define their
own rules.
* This can handle more than one polygon at a time.
So if you want to try it out I will recommend that you wait till
ShapeLogic 1.0 is out.
It is always hard to judge the quality of your own work, but I think
that it should save you a few months of work.
But there is a lot of work from you start with ShapeLogic till you
have a useful character recognition program.
Good luck,
-Sami Badawi
