*'''Project Description'''<br>
'''2    Project Description'''<br>
Currently all the SILPA modules and applications for processing Indian Languages are programmed in python and Android developers face the limitation of benefiting from these efficient language processing modules by using it as a web service and is devoid of proper support for Indian Languages. The project focuses on developing an Android SDK for SILPA applications by porting all modules to Android Library and packing fonts to achieve consistency in viewing texts of different languages on all platforms and hence bridging the gap between SILPA modules and Android developers. This SDK will enable developers to enjoy freedom from Android fragmentation and support their Indic applications in the dominating Android application market.

This task involves writing core language processing functions of modules efficiently in Java after which API calls to all library functions is written. All modules to be ported with maximum language optimization to ensure speedy processing of data by modules by defining and utilising time and memory optimized data structure classes and algorithms. Rigorous unit testing of all library functions using JUnit and tweaking code to rectify all issues.<br>
 
Implementation strategy for all modules:<br>
All functions and data members of modules can be accessed via object of the respective module class. For example, Soundex module functions can be accessed by :<br>
Soundex obj = new Soundex ();
int cmp = obj.compare(string1, string2);
String soundexCode = obj.soundex (string1);
 
Applying Silpa modules to Android views:<br>
 
i) Indic Soundex: XML layout/script can be applied to two EditText/TextViews such that as user enters text into the EditText boxes, comparison of strings is done in background and result can be stored or applied elsewhere.<br>
 
ii) Payyans: XML layout/script that can be applied to EditText/TextViews such that conversion between ASCII and Unicode can be carried out in background and result can be stored or applied elsewhere.<br>
 
iii) Transliterator: XML layout/script that can be applied to EditText/TextViews and transliteration process is carried out and output to ImageView or TextView using ImageJ library.<br>
 
iv) SpellCheck: XML layout/script that can be applied to EditText/TextViews such that incorrectly spelt words are highlighted using JOrtho library.<br>
 
v) Fortune: XML layout/script that can be applied to TextView to display a particular proverb or to ListView to display all proverbs. Also scheduling a daily notification service such that a proverb is popped up at the start of the day or at a specified time. <br>
 
vi) Hyphenator: XML layout/script that can be applied to all text views such that text overflow due to insufficient space is accommodated in the next line with the usage of hyphen.<br>
 
vii) UCA sort: Custom Adapter for ListView such that text of selected component can be sorted and displayed.<br>
 
viii) Guess Language: XML layout/script that can be applied to EditText/TextView where field text is obtained by means of context and language is predicted by accessing GuessLanguage methods.<br>
 
ix) Stemmer: XML layout/script that can be applied to text views from which text can be obtained by means of context and each word can be reduced to stem word and stored.<br>
 
x) Syllabalizer: XML layout/script that can be applied to text views from which text can be obtained by means of context and each word can be reduced to list of syllables and stored.<br>


xi) Katapayadi: XML layout/script that can be applied to text views from which text can be obtained by means of context and Katapayadi number for each word is calculated.<br>
xii) Character Details: XML layout/script that can be applied to text views from which text can be obtained by means of context and character details can be obtained by passing text to character details function of its respective class via object of the respective class.<br>
