- Trigonometric functions
- Calculus notation (integrals, derivatives, limits)
- Matrices and vectors
- Greek letters and mathematical symbols
- And much more...
How to Upload Handwritten Notes
To convert your handwritten notes to LaTeX, follow these steps:
-
Prepare your notes: Ensure your handwriting is clear and legible. For best results, use black ink on white paper.
-
Scan or photograph your notes: Use a scanner or your smartphone camera to create a digital image of your notes. Make sure the image is well-lit and the text is clearly visible.
-
Upload the image: In the TeXeR dashboard, select the "Images" tab and upload your image file. We support PNG, JPG, and JPEG formats.
-
Process the image: Click the "Convert to LaTeX" button to begin processing your handwritten notes.
-
Review and edit: Once processing is complete, review the generated LaTeX code and make any necessary corrections.
Tips for Best Results
To get the most accurate results from our handwriting recognition system, consider the following tips:
-
Write clearly: Use a consistent handwriting style and avoid cursive writing for mathematical symbols.
-
Separate equations: Leave some space between equations to help our system distinguish between different expressions.
-
Use proper notation: Follow standard mathematical notation as much as possible.
-
Crop your images: If your notes contain non-mathematical text or diagrams, consider cropping the image to focus on the equations.
-
Check lighting: Ensure your image is well-lit and has good contrast between the writing and the background.
Common Issues and Solutions
Issue: Poor Recognition Accuracy
Solution: Ensure your handwriting is clear and the image quality is good. Try rewriting complex equations more neatly.
Issue: Missing or Incorrect Symbols
Solution: Check if you're using standard mathematical notation. Some non-standard notations may not be recognized correctly.
Issue: LaTeX Syntax Errors
Solution: Review the generated LaTeX code and correct any syntax errors. Our system may occasionally misinterpret certain symbols.
Example Conversions
Here are some examples of handwritten equations and their corresponding LaTeX output:
| Handwritten Equation | LaTeX Output |
|---|---|
| Simple quadratic formula | x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} |
| Integral with limits | \int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^2} dx = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2} |
| Matrix notation | \begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix} |
Remember, practice makes perfect! The more you use TeXeR for converting your handwritten notes, the more familiar you'll become with the process and the better results you'll achieve.
