الملخص العربي
Same as Arabic scripts, Arabic mathematical
symbols have some differences with Latin mathematical symbols
shape. Although, Arabic Mathematical symbols follow Latin
mathematical from the structure of writing the symbols, Arabic
symbols have special shape like writing direction, cursive style,
and written by Arabic characters. In fact, these symbols are
being used in schools and high education level around many
Arabic countries. However, recently digital tablets are used
rapidly for teaching in high schools in many countries. For that,
there become a necessity of having an education platform to deal
with Arabic scripts in general and mathematical symbols in
particular. In this paper an online system for recognizing
handwritten Arabic mathematical symbols is presented. The
paper illustrates each phase of the system in details. The system is
dealing with some Arabic mathematical symbols as initial study
and to be updated with more symbols later.
