Abstract

Advances in digital technology have greatly helped in the digitization of many ancient scripts. We present the details of a project undertaken in the Indonesian island of Bali to develop a comprehensive digital script for the Balinese language with the goal of alleviating the problem of people losing their competence with both the Balinese language and Balinese script. In this paper we introduce the first such a system consisting of a non-QWERTY keyboard layout and its application for the Balinese script of the Balinese language. The aim of the system is to assist teachers and educators in Bali to train students on how to write Balinese script in a natural as well as modern way. The composition approach of the characters in the keyboard layout was obtained through several Balinese language datasets, such as short stories, itihasa (history), proverb, poetry, etc. In addition to the system, our project also included the development of a soft keyboard for desktop and tablet/smartphone environments. Our work contributes to the preservation of the Balinese cultural heritage.

采用非qwerty键盘组合巴厘文字

数字技术的进步极大地促进了许多古代文字的数字化。我们介绍了在印度尼西亚巴厘岛进行的一个项目的细节，该项目旨在开发一种全面的巴厘语数字文字，目的是减轻人们同时丧失巴厘语和巴厘文字能力的问题。在本文中，我们介绍了第一个由非qwerty键盘布局组成的系统及其在巴厘语的巴厘文字中的应用。该系统的目的是协助巴厘岛的教师和教育工作者培训学生如何以自然和现代的方式书写巴厘文。通过短篇小说、历史、谚语、诗歌等多个巴厘语数据集，获得了键盘布局中字符的构成方法。除了系统之外，我们的项目还包括为桌面和平板电脑/智能手机环境开发软键盘。我们的工作有助于保护巴厘岛的文化遗产。
