Final Year Project

Project Title

Personalized e-Learning application for Urdu, Drawing and Coloring

Description

The project is called Aangan; it is a mobile application designed for young children to learn Urdu writing and drawing. The application uses machine learning at the heart to provide a personalized learning experience to the learner. Machine learning is used to provide feedback on a learner's writing; it is also used to identify the weaknesses which the system uses to provide a personalized learning experience. The project also contributes to the research of handwriting analysis in Urdu by creating novel datasets and models, which will create a pathway for further research in this domain.
