Dear Sir/Madam C-DAC, Mumbai* *has released *Anumaan* (alpha-0.1 version) as a part of its activities and commitment in the area of accessibility. Accessibility activities at C-DAC, Mumbai are coordinated by Open Source Software Division (OSSD) at its Kharghar, Navi Mumbai Centre.
Anumaan is a perspective-based, on-screen predictive text entry system for GNOME desktop. Basically, it is an extension of an Input Method (IM) mechanism (on GNOME desktop) in the sense that it extends its (IM) notion by including the power of text prediction. It has support for UTF-8 unicode encoding. The system allows users to train it and personalize and as per their writing style into different named domains. Hence, it adapts to user’s writing style in some sense. Although, the current version does not support live mode adaptation, still a user can train a domain as many times he likes. Anumaan is designed for a (text) sequence prediction based on a certain Context.The context can either be a partial word context or a partial sentence context. Therefore, it is intended to help people suffering from different kinds of motor disability by allowing it to be customized for different kinds of Input devices (e.g. keyboard, mouse, joystick or any other pointing device especially built for people suffering from motor disability). In other words, it can be customized very easily to cater to different hand movement capabilities. The current version is only for mouse and keyboard based interactions. But, we can easily customize it for different hardware input device requirements. The current released versions have two flavours: *1. Anumaan-standalone:* The base system which runs on Java Swing Interface. *2. AnumaanLinux:* The Linux version which uses Anumaan-standalone as base and is ported to utilize the accessibility features of GNOME GAIL library. The current interface is accessible to almost all Gtk+ Editable Text Widgets. *Anumaan URLs:* *1.
