Summary:
The author presents an algorithm for recognizing mathematical problems and solving them. The user sketches an equation or mathematical situation, and the MathPad2 system solves that problem. Currently, MathPad2 cannot solve complex problems involving multiple equations by itself. MathPad2 is currently limited to solving simple equations. MathPad2 is a user-driven sketch recognition system using menu options and gesture options to activate functionality.
Discussion:
I did not see a results sections or a section devoted towards user evaluation; I did notice the odd feedback mini-section here and there. I cannot help but think this system was created with minimal user feedback. It would be interesting to see how a few Math majors (Math PhD students in particular and some Math professors) think of MathPad2.
