Abstract/Artist's Statement
The order of strokes in handwriting is significant. There have been studies that show that knowledge of this order aids in the interpretation of the graphical display of a symbolic expression. Standard image storage does not take this into account for various reasons. This project explores formats that preserve this crucial information. In particular, I have developed Matlab software to facilitate the use of InkML, which is a graphical format that stores the order of strokes in a drawing.
