This project's goal is to provide a suite of tools that will allow a designer to develop sketch recognition systems for new domains. The designer will draw examples of shapes that the system should recognize. The examples are used to generate a formal description of the shapes the system should recognize. This description is then compiled into efficient bottom up recognizers. Finally, these recognizers are employed by the recognition system that uses both top-down contextual recognition techniques and the bottom-up shape recognizers to generate a model of the sketch.
