@manuelfuenmayor @anermina — Editors, do you have time to help encode the math formulas for the CIE e-ILV? There are 217 equations remaining that need to be transcribed from image form into AsciiMath notation.
There's an interactive editor with a live Plurimath MathML preview — you see the original equation GIF side-by-side with your typed AsciiMath and its rendered MathML, so you can verify correctness as you go.
Quick start
-
Download the editor (zip, 644 KB):
https://github.com/glossarist/cie-eilv/raw/main/docs/math-correction/math-editor.zip
-
Unzip and open math-editor.html in any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari). No internet connection needed after download — everything (GIFs, Plurimath engine, current progress) is embedded.
-
(Optional) Load existing corrections: click Import JSON and select:
https://github.com/glossarist/cie-eilv/raw/main/docs/math-correction/math-corrections.json
-
Correct equations: for each row, look at the original GIF, type the AsciiMath expression, check the MathML preview matches, click Save.
-
Export: when you're done (or partially done), click Export JSON and attach the file to a comment here.
What you'll see
Each entry shows:
- Concept ID + location (e.g.
17-21-038 | definition or 17-21-026 | designation)
- Original GIF — the equation as it appears on the CIE website
- AsciiMath text box — type the expression here
- Live MathML preview — rendered by Plurimath, updates as you type
Yellow-bordered entries are designation symbols (the concept's math symbol, e.g. Φ_e). Blue-bordered entries are equations (formulas in definitions/notes, e.g. Φ_e = dQ_e/dt).
Green border = already corrected. Use the filter bar to jump to specific concepts or show only unsaved entries.
