A new interface
The last few days I was modifying the interface of my webservice. That became necessary, because iDocument returns a lot more information than I expected. But how to find out, what is important to the user and what isn’t? The goal is to do as much automatic as possible. I don’t want the user to interact more than necessary.
Currently the webserver sends every word that was recognized by the hwr to iDocument. After that it does a re-ranking of the alternatives. Therefore it takes the confidence values the hwr calculated for each word and the belief values of iDocument. In the next post I will show an example. But first I want to write about another problem: There is much information that need to be visualized on the iLiad. For now I don’t have a clue, how to do this, because there is only a greyscale display and the device is very slow.

Hello, sorry for the late reaction. Right, this is a problem. Maybe you know th eLeCoOnt implementation - we have tried to remove all dialogues and unneccessary information. So think carfully about which information is really useful and which is not. Maybe you can develop a sample interface and we can gradually improve. At the itable there were also more dialogues and buttons, but they have been removed stepwise.

That’s a good idea. I will prepare some sketches and post it here.
