CHISE : CHaracter Information Service Environment

Main Content

For freedom of character representation

The CHISE (CHaracter Information Service Environment) project is an open source research and development project aiming at realizing a next-generation character processing environment that is not restricted by general-purpose coded character sets by directly using various knowledge of characters. We attempt to realize a free and advanced character processing environment and conduct research and development as follows:

  • Research on architecture
  • Development of foundation system / application
  • Development of character ontology and other datasets related about characters

We release the result as free software.
