This repository is the source code for my past project HyNote, which is published in the following paper. Unfortunately, this repository is under no maintenance any more. In any worst case you really need my help, approach me and see if i could give a hand.
Notes can be taken in a linear or nonlinear way. Previous work suggests that nonlinear note taking is advantageous in terms of sense-making and long-term recall. However, previous studies also reveal that the combination of divided attention and time pressure make realtime notetaking a challenge. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid workflow inheriting advantages from both linear and nonlinear notetaking approaches. Our resulting HyNote (Hybrid Notetaking) system uses statistical parsing of linear raw notes to facilitate concepts mapping, allowing users to smoothly switch between linear and nonlinear approaches with low effort and time costs. Results from our preliminary study of HyNote show that users can easily map concepts in realtime and achieve superior understanding of lecture contents in a video learning task compared with using the traditional linear Notepad application.

You could load the project into Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 directly.
You could probably watch the HyNote video or paper before you decide to use the codes. Please check whether HyNote might help your own project or idea.

This project and paper are done during my internship with my mentor Darren Edge in MSRA (Microsoft Research Asia). I would like thank for the guidance from my mentor as well as the Award of Excellence MSRA gave to me for "Stars of Tomorrow Internship Program".
