miwo「みを」AIくずし字認識アプリ

Let's read the cursive script material with the AI ​​cursive script recognition app in one hand!

I want to read cursive script materials! But I can't read it! "Mio" is an application that helps such people. If you take a picture of the material with a camera and press a button, AI will convert the junk characters into modern characters. Welcome to the world of cursive script.

The ROIS-DS Humanities Open Data Shared Use Center (CODH) has developed an AI shaving character recognition technology that has the function of converting (reprinting) the shaving characters contained in images into modern characters. The AI ​​kuzuji recognition smartphone app "miwo" was developed with the aim of making this technology easy for anyone to use.

"Mio" is named after "Mio Tsukushi", the 14th book of "Genji Monogatari". Just as "Mio Tsukushi" serves as a pilot guide for people, we aim to use the "Mio" app as a guide for traveling through the sea of ​​cursive script materials.

【Notes】

-Since the AI ​​of the "Mio" app learns the junk-character data collected from the prints of the Edo period, the accuracy of the prints of the Edo period is relatively high, but materials of other times, manuscripts, etc. For old documents, etc., the accuracy may decrease.

――The accuracy may decrease depending on the condition of materials such as stains, worm-eaten, paper patterns, and the shooting environment such as lighting and shadows.

――At present, we cannot recognize the jumbled characters written on stone monuments and signboards.

--This application does not require user registration and does not collect personal information. In addition, we do not collect individual identification information of terminals.

--The image uploaded from this application to the server for kanji character recognition and the recognition result are not saved on the server.
