online handwriting recognition system with machine learning Zinnia provides a simple, customizable, and portable dynamic OCR system for hand-written input, based on Support Vector Machines. Zinnia simply receives user pen strokes as coordinate data and outputs the best matching characters sorted by SVM confidence. To maintain portability, it has no rendering functionality. In addition to recognition, Zinnia provides a training module capable of creating highly efficient handwriting recognition models. This package contains the shared libraries.
