About the CHISE Project

+

+The CHISE (CHaracter Information Service Environment) project attempts +to collect and organize into a Knowledge-Base information about +characters in the scripts of the world. A new processing environment +based on this architecture is currently under development. +

Development of a character processing architecture based on a +character knowledge base

+ +

XEmacs UTF-2000

It is now possible to load character +attributes from a external database on demand ("lazy loading"). On +Intel 32 bit processor architectures, the size of the executable file +thus shrinks from the 30 MB required with the traditional built to +just about 15 MB. This can now be downloaded from +XEmacs UTF-2000 0.19 (Koriyama). In addtion, there is a UTF-2000 +branch of the XEmacs tree at cvs.m17n.org in /cvs/root, this can be +accessed by anonymous CVS

+ + +

A +TopicMaps based approach to a +character dababase +

+

+In 2001 the prototype of a Topic Map engine has been developed based +on Zope. This proved less than +ideal for this purpose, so the focus for this year is to port this +engine to a relational database backend. Currently development +continued with PostgreSQL. It is planned to enable Topic Map editing +within XEmacs UTF-2000, but also to allow multiple clients in addtion +to this. +

+ + + +

Database of features of characters

+ +

Database of the component structure of Chinese Characters

+ +

+Based on the Ideographic Description Characters (IDS) in +ISO/IEC 10646-1:2000 and Unicode, we are now developping a database +that expresses the structure of Chinese Characters using this syntax. +At the moment, we are using the characters in the Unicode tables as a +reference. The basic CJK Unified Ideographs, as well as +Extension A and Extension B, together more +than 70000 characters are currently covered. +

+ +

+ + +
+Table of the component structure database + +

+ +

+The following tables are currently available via anonymous CVS from cvs.m17n.org at /cvs/chise +as module ids: +

Intgegration and Composition of Character Glyphs +and Styles

In the character database is information about +character glyphs and styles collected. This allows to use this +information together with the other knowledge about a character in the +database to built a system that uses the component +structure information to assemble the font for a character +depending on the contextual requirements from its components. With +this system, occurrences of mismatches based on erroneous association +or insufficient contextual information are excluded, and it will be +possible easily display and print character forms that have not been codified and for +which no fonts exists . +
