Abstract:
The paper describes the design and implementation of the system for dictation of mathematical expressions in Polish. The details of the developed solution environment are presented, as well as the workflow scheme of the actual natural language parser. In order to test the dictation engine, we have extended the ”Equation wizard” editor, developed initially as a classic desktop application for MS Windows operating system. Preliminary experiments prove the system works efficiently and accepts even complex expressions and can, therefore, be used as a basis for the novel approach to editing mathematical documents by people with disabilities. The proposed solution provides an efficient interface for input of mathematical content and may be easily adapted to human-computer interaction systems for educational purposes.
