Abstract

A hybrid approach to improve handwriting recognition and voice recognition in data process systems is disclosed. In one embodiment, a front end is used to recognize strokes, characters and/or phonemes. The front end returns candidates with relative or absolute probabilities of matching to the input. Based on linguistic characteristics of the language, e.g. alphabetical or ideographic language for the words being entered, e.g. frequency of words and phrases being used, likely part of speech of the word entered, the morphology of the language, or the context in which the word is entered), a back end combines the candidates determined by the front end from inputs for words to match with known words and the probabilities of the use of such words in the current context.

[Previous technology] Due to memory restrictions, size, and correction of text control (buttons, text input on the device is a pick-up handheld computer device has become smaller and the development of personal data assistant to two-way paging technology has been derived for a Small facets to accept text input to messaging systems and especially the " 5 (e-mail) or SMS system. Over the years, portable computers have become smaller and smaller. In making a smaller computer with One size-limiting element in the effort is the keyboard. If quasi-typed keys are used, the portable computer is at least as large as the keyboard. The reduced keyboard has been used on the portable computer, but the reduced keyboard keys are too small to be used. Simple or fast ladder making with sufficient accuracy. Adding a full-size keyboard to a portable computer will also I1 and hinder the true portability of the computer. Most portable computers cannot be operated without being placed on a flat work surface. Allow the user to use both hands to input. One user can move when the stand-up or move-in brain-brain-feeding double-piece is small and moves 5 200538969 It is easy to use a portable computer. Handwriting recognition is a method that has been adopted, which can solve the problem of text input on a small device with an electronic induction screen or tablet that detects the movement of a finger or stylus. In the latest generation of small portable computers, which are personal digital assistants (PDAs), companies try to solve this problem by adding handwriting recognition software to the pda. A user can write on a touch sensor pad or display screen Enter text directly. The recognition software

These pens are very different in their natural way. The final product adoption is the question posed above. Speech recognition is another way to solve the problem of text input. 6 200538969 First, our θ identification system typically includes a microphone to detect and record the speech input. The θ turn is digitized and analyzed to extract a speech sample. Recognition typically requires a powerful system to process the speech input. Some limited voice recognition systems have been used on small devices, such as mobile phones for voice-controlled operations. For voice control operations, a device only needs to recognize several commands. Even for speech recognition based on a limited range of speech, because the sample of Ling will change with different users and different situations, a small device does not have satisfactory speech recognition accuracy. It would be advantageous to develop a more practical system to handle human language input. The system has a user-friendly approach, such as a handwriting recognition system for input, and a natural input for a handwriting or speech recognition system for speaking in a natural way. Input, the system has improved accuracy and reduced computing requirements, such as reduced memory requirements and processing power requirements. [Summary of the Invention] A hybrid method is described here to improve the handwriting recognition and speech recognition on the Behr processing system. In an embodiment ... the front end is used to identify strokes, characters, syllables and / or phonemes. The front end returns candidates with relative or absolute likelihoods that match the input.

Traditional handwriting recognition systems face a challenge that requires more than is available on small electronic devices. The present invention improves the sound input technology on these devices by automatically correcting to reduce handwriting or speech recognition memory requirements and processing power requirements. The present invention uses a hybrid approach to enhance the hand of data processing systems for speech recognition. In one embodiment, a front end recognizes the pen day, word, and / or phoneme and returns a relative or absolute candidate that matches the input. Different candidates can be returned for further processing by a back end. Only one candidate is selected using the front end. The back end combines the candidates identified by the front end to match the known word and the possibility of using the current word. By combining the front-end rain back end, the system has an improved recognition rate and is more user-friendly. One of the system's write and speech recognition inputs is effective and has a low memory / CPU implementation. In the present invention, a "word" means any linguistic string forming a word, word stem, prefix or suffix, abbreviation, slang, emoticon, use Or one or more characters or symbols of a sequence of ideographic characters. In this embodiment, a front end is used to execute samples on the language input such as handwriting, voice input, and so on.

For example, a handwritten letter may be similar to the characters "a" or "c", "0" or ‘,,,’. Currently available pattern recognition techniques can determine the handwritten letter as < ability of any of these characters. However, a'-identification system is typically forced to report only one match. Therefore, the character with the highest probability of matching is typically reported as a recognition result. In one embodiment of the present invention, several candidates are sent to the backend as possible choices, rather than excluding other candidates in advance to get a possible mismatch, so the backend uses the context to match The language input determines overall more likely candidate combinations, such as a word, a phrase, a word pair, a triplet, or a word that fits before or after a sentence, for example, according to a grammatical structure. For example, different candidate words can be determined from different combinations of character candidates among the words that the user is trying to enter. From the frequency of using the word in the language and the relative or absolute likelihood of matching the candidate character, the backend can determine the word that the user is most likely to type. This is different from the traditional method, which provides a set of independently determined most likely characters that cannot even form a meaningful word. Therefore, the present invention combines a precise word search software with a handwriting recognition (HR) engine or a speech recognition (SR) engine to provide a small electronic device such as a personal digital assistant, a telephone, or a mobile phone. Many specific devices for inputting text and data. Feng Liren Li Xing gave a powerful solution to the persistent problem of Wuyin input. The engine can effectively serve a variety of low-level memories. In addition, the present invention uses a single back-end input type (standard keyboard, handwriting, voice), 13 200538969, and processor requirements.

After the language input 101, such as handwriting or speech, is received by the style recognition engine 103, the style recognition engine 103 processes the input to provide candidate word components such as characters, phonemes, or pen days and their corresponding parts that match the input 105 Possibility. For example, a character input can match a candidate character list and cause ambiguity. In one embodiment, the obfuscation is tolerated at the front-end level and transmitted to the language non-fuzzy back-end for further processing. For example, a word-based non-fuzzy engine 1 07 compares the word list 1 09 with possible combinations of the characters to establish candidate words and their association possibilities that match the user input 111. Since less frequently used words or unknown words are less likely to match the user input if they are not in the word list 1, 09, these candidate words can be downgraded and have a lower likelihood of matching Even though the results of the pattern recognition engine 105 seem to have a relatively high probability of matching. The word-based non-fuzzy engine 107 eliminates some of the less likely candidate words so that the user is not bothered by a large selection list. Alternatively, the word-based non-fuzzy engine may select a most likely word from the candidate words. In an embodiment, if the output of the word-based non-fuzzy engine 107 has blur, a phrase-based non-fuzzy engine 11 3 further compares the phrase list 115 to check the result. The list can include double hyphens, triple hyphens, and so on. One or more previously identified 14 200538969 words can be combined with the current word to match the phrase. The frequency of use of the phrase can be used to modify the match to create the candidate phrase and match 11 7 The associated month is ambiguous, the phrase based on the phrase-based non-fuzzy engine and the phrase list 115 are predicted to continue in an embodiment. If the # output according to the phrase has ambiguous, then Perform contextual and / or unlikely words / phrases. If the ambiguity cannot be resolved by driving, this option can be presented to the use option 121. After the user selects the word, the phrase list 1 1 5 can be updated to upgrade the user's choice: Add a new word / phrase to the list. Fig. 2 is a block diagram of an identification processing system according to the present invention. Although FIG. 2 illustrates the various elements of the system, it is understood that a mouthpiece system in accordance with the present invention may generally include elements compared to those described in FIG. 2. For example, some systems may not have a nest of components needed to process sound. • Other functions that the system may describe, such as a mobile phone subscription environment. Figures illustrate various feature secrets related to the present invention. In this specification, a skilled artisan will not limit the configuration of the domain / data processing system to the second configuration. The display 203 passes through the appropriate interface circuit. Possibility of choosing words Even if there is no. To use based on previously recognized words. Method analysis of fuzzy engine 113 11 9 Eliminates non-fuzzy automatic language for the user to select a list of words 109 and P-words / phrases and / or input data input by the user. Model data processing is a data section of the embodiment. Or less vowel recognition capability without the uncommunicated circuit in Figure 2. The various meta-relevant meta-analysis solutions are based on the specific structure described in the present invention to the processor 201. 15 200538969 A handwriting input device 202, such as a touch screen, a mouse, or a digital pen 'is connected to the processor 201 to receive user input for handwriting recognition and / or other user input. A speech input device such as a microphone is connected to the processor 201 to receive user input for speech recognition and / or other speech input. Alternatively, a sound output device 205 is connected to the processor as well. The processor 201 receives input from the voice input device 204 and manages output to the display and the remaining eight. The processor 2 0 1 is connected to a memory 2 1 0. The memory includes a combination of temporary storage media such as random access memory (RAM) and a combination of permanent storage media such as read-only memory (ROM), floppy disks, hard disks, or CD-ROMs. The memory 210 contains all software routines and data needed to manage system operations. The memory typically contains an operating system 2m and an application program 220. Examples of applications include word processors, software dictionaries, and foreign language translators. Speech synthesis software is also available as an application. Preferably, the memory further includes a stroke / character recognition engine = Γ for recognizing strokes / characters and / or phoneme recognition in the handwriting turn to identify phonemes in the speech input. The phoneme recognition engine and the stroke / character recognition engine allow any technique known in the field to provide-candidate lists and associations of strokes that match each input =. It has been known that the front-end engine such as the stroke / character two; engine or the element recognition engine 213 for pattern recognition is not appropriate in the present invention. η In an embodiment of the present invention, 'the memory 210 further includes a 16 200538969 language non-fuzzy backend, which may be 6 "" dagger one or more word-based non-puzzling engines 216, and Phrase Rabbit Aunt VII, Non-fuzzy Engine Based on Identification 2 1 7, Non-modelled Pregnancy Based on Precedence 2 1 8, Choice Module 2 1 9 and Others such as Word List 2 1 4 And a y piece of my list 2 1 5 and so on. In this embodiment, the context-based indecent assault fuzzy engine application is helpful to input non-ambiguity user's other postulates' strategies. For example, depending on the selected user location, the user is in the office or at home; the time of day, such as working hours or leisure years, sighs, or recipients, and so on. In a prudent embodiment of the present invention, the components used for a non-fuzzy back end are mostly used in different input forms, such as for handwriting recognition and for speech recognition. The word list 2〗 4 1 4 contains a list of known words in a language. The word list 214 may end in one step—the person ^ step contains frequency usage information of the corresponding word in the language. In one embodiment, the frequency of a word that does not exist in the word list 214 of the language is seen to be zero. Alternatively, a very small frequency of use can be assigned to an unknown word "J °" using the default frequency of use of the unknown word, and the known and unknown word can be processed in a substantially the same way. The word The word list 2 1 4 can be used for Lugu, ~ word-based non-fuzzy engine 2 1 6 and used to arrange, eliminate β > / or choose to recognize the front end according to the style (such as the stroke / character recognition The candidate word determined by the result of engine # 212 or the phoneme recognition engine 213), ΒΒ7 ~, to predict the word based on a part of the user input in order to form the word. None 7 n Ί Similarly, the film The phrase list 2 1 5 may include a y Han ^ including two or more words; a list of shi films ^ and the frequency of use information, and the phrase list may be used by the phrase-based non-fuzzy engine 2 1 7 Used and can be used to predict words to complete the phrase. 17 200538969 In one embodiment of the present invention, each input sequence is processed by referring to a plurality of word modules, each word module contains a Or multiple vocabularies and information about each vocabulary , Including the number of characters in the word to "the word occurrence frequency and the other terms on the same length. Alternatively, information about the vocabulary module or a module in which a specific word is a member is stored with each word, or a module can modify or create a word according to the language style, such as on a specific syllable Put in a distinguishing mark, or build or filter candidate terms based on any other algorithms and / or nearby contexts used to interpret the current input sequence. In one embodiment, each input sequence is processed by a pattern recognition terminal to provide a series of candidate lists, such as pen day, character, syllable, phoneme, and so on. Different combinations of this candidate provide different candidate terms. The non-fuzzy backend combines the candidate's compliance probability and the frequency of use of the candidate word to rank, eliminate, and / or select one or more words as alternatives for the user to choose. Words with a higher frequency of use are highly likely candidates. Unknown words or words that are used less frequently are candidates for low probability. The selection module 2 1 9 selectively presents a number of southerly possibilities from the user-selectable person. In another embodiment of the present invention, the frequency of use of words is based on the use of the user or the use of the word in a specific context, such as in a message or article that the user is editing. As a result, frequently used words become more likely. _ In another embodiment, a word is stored in each vocabulary module, so the word is classified as a file or cluster containing words of the same length. First, each input sequence is processed by searching for groups of words of the same length as the number of inputs in the input sequence, and the selected word is identified with the best coincidence score. If the number of recognized words with the same length as the input sequence is less than a critical number, the system continues to compare the input of N input with the first 1 ^ of each word in the word group of length N + 1 letter. Li continuously searches for longer and longer words and compares the input sequence entered with the first N letters of each word in the group until a critical number of words are identified. Available candidate words longer than the input sequence can be provided to the user as a possible interpretation of the input sequence, which provides a one-word completion form. f During the installation phase, or in the process of receiving text messages or other information, the method of finding this information building case in the data file has been added to the words in the vocabulary. With 曰 一发 ^ 1 exists in the know-how. After searching for α, the day m history breaks into a sub-module as a low-frequency word, and is therefore placed at the end of the list of words associated with the chanting f. During the bet 8¾ process * a specific number of times that a new word was detected, a relatively higher degree was specified by upgrading the scab h subword in the sub-Θ related list, thus increasing information privacy, ^ poor The likelihood that the word will appear in the word list during a long rotation. In the present " 明 之 _-%, sample, for each input sequence, a group of words is formed by identifying a candidate word component that is right and fearing the possibility, and compiling the selected word component ^^ 7 ~ Sub-words to build a candidate word. This "peak type" word is then included in the list of candidate words, and can also be presented in the other place. The word vocabulary has an appendix to the offensive word, which is similar to the offensive word in the state, so when entering the offensive word, the candidate candidates are sorted into order. The rate word is selected by the candidate category one, which is 19 200538969.

This feature filters out the appearance of offensive words, which may happen by accident when the user learns that it may be possible to type faster without inadvertently touching the exact position of the expected letter of the keyboard. Therefore, before displaying the exact typed string, use a technique well known in the art, and the software routine responsible for displaying the word selection list compares the current exact typed string and the offending word appendix. If the two are found to match, then Replace the display string with relevant acceptable words. Otherwise, even if an offensive word is regarded as a very low frequency word, when each letter of the word is directly touched, it will still be displayed as the exact typed word. Even though this situation is similar to accidentally typing an offensive word on a standard keyboard, the present invention tolerates less accurate input by the user. This feature can be turned on or off by the user, for example through a system menu option. Those skilled in the art will understand that additional vocabulary modules can be opened in the computer, such as vocabulary modules containing legal terms, medical terms, and other languages. Furthermore, in certain languages such as Hindi, the vocabulary module may use a "template" of a valid sub-word sequence to determine which candidate word component is the previous input and the candidate word is being considered Possible or appropriate. Through a system menu, the user can set up the system so that the additional vocabulary words appear first or last in the list of possible words, such as by special coloring or highlighting, or by which system the vocabulary can be automatically based on The module supplies the directly selected word and automatically switches the order of the words. Therefore, in the scope of the additional application patents, it will be understood that the present invention can be implemented in ways other than those specifically described herein. According to another aspect of the present invention, in the process of using the system by a user, an upgrade algorithm automatically adjusts the vocabulary, and the algorithm is executed every time when the use _select_word Xiao is executed to gradually increase the transparency. Related to the word :: Frequency to upgrade words in that vocabulary. & In one embodiment, the upgrade algorithm increases the frequency values associated with a relatively large number of selected words ' and decreases the frequency values of those words ignored by very small deductions. For a vocabulary module where the relative frequency information is indicated by the consecutive order in which the words appear in a list, the upgrade is completed by moving the selected word upward from the distance between a part and the front end of the list. The upgrade algorithm is best to avoid moving the most frequently used words and very rarely used words away from their original location. For example, the percentage of words in the middle range of the list will increase with each selection. The words between the start and end of the selected word in the language upgrade are effectively downgraded by the value 丨. The list of terms is conserved as a whole, so information about the relative frequency of the terms in the list can be maintained and updated without the need to increase the storage required for the list. The upgrade algorithm increases the frequency of selected words and reduces the frequency of unselected words by 1 as appropriate. For example, 'In the phrase where the relative frequency information is indicated by the order in which the words appear in the-list, the selected word appearing at the IDX position in the list is moved to the (Ιβχ / 2) . Correspondingly, words in the list (position 1_ down to (lDx + i) are moved down one position in the list. When a series of contact points are processed and a word is selected based on the calculated Match the metric score established, and-or more words appear in the list before 21 200538969 of the word selected by the user, the words in the list are downgraded. In the selection above However, words that are not selected can be presumed to be referred to • High frequency, that is, they appear too high in the list. This word of starting position can be downgraded, for example, to (position. Therefore, a The more often a word is considered for selection, the less the number of hierarchies it is moved in. The upgrade and drop are triggered by one of the user ’s actions, or may be performed differently depending on the entry. For example, only There should be

Alternatively, a selection word at an upper position in the selection list may have a larger coefficient. For example, the upgrade term starts at IDX (IDX / 3). The change is obvious to those skilled in the art. According to another aspect of the invention, the front end can detect changes in its cognition based on feedback from the back end. As the word is added and the word is selected from the selection list, the candidate order and the expected words contained in each selected word change the possibilities established by the front end. Alternatively, the front end then receives adjustment values for one or more strokes, characters, syllables. Figures 3A and 3B illustrate an example of handwritten recognition output according to the present invention. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the number of degraded places that appear in the selection list is inappropriate to appear in IDX (IDX * 2 + 1), and the level processing may only use the one-touch word selection list of the user ’s loser. The word expected by the Chinese is manually dragged and dropped to be upgraded to a more general position and moved to speech. Many of these system errors and the user's repeated input of the non-components between the components can be used to maintain a self-identity of the self or phoneme Software's non-modular handwriting recognition engine 22 200538969 and -Module 'This module obtains from the handwriting engine all possible correspondences related to each letter entered by the user. This embodiment combines these possibilities with the Word likelihood to predict the most likely word for the user or the word the user is trying to take turns. Any technique known in the art can be used to determine the τ energy sign and the possibility of compliance. For example, ‘Yes, a user may try to enter five characters to enter the five-letter word“ often ”. This user input can appear as in circle 3α

The handwriting recognition software specifies the following characters and the possible output of the characters of the pen day: pen day 1 (301): 0, 60%, a · 24%, V 12%, ,, pen day 2 (302) :, T, 40%, T 34%, 4, 20%, τ 6% pen day 3 (303): V 50%, f, 42%, Γ 4%, i, 4% pen day 4 ( 304): * c, 40%, e * 32% ,, s, 5%, 13% pen 5 (305) :, n, 42% ,,!: 30%, m, 16%, v 12% For example, the probability of stroke 301 is 60%, the probability of stroke 302 is 40%, the probability of stroke 303 is 4 ', the probability of stroke 304 is' c' The probability is 40%, and the probability of pen day 305 is 4, 2%. The letters that the handwriting recognition software considers to be closest to the strokes of the user are grouped together, and the handwriting software module presents the string '0Ucn' to the user, who is not the user's intended input. It is not even a word in English. An embodiment of the present invention uses a non-fuzzy word search module to find an optimal prediction based on these characters, the possibility of matching the character, and the frequency of using the word in English. In one embodiment of the present invention, the combined handwriting module and the non-fuzzy module predict that the most likely word is 'often', which is the word the user is trying to enter.

舉例來說,如第3B圖所示,一後端工具接收所有的 候選者並判定一可能字詞列表包括:ottcn,attcn,〇ftcn, aftcn,otfcn,atfcn,offcn,affcn, otten, atten,often,aften, otfen,atfen, offen, affen, otter, attcr,oftcr,after, otfer, atfer,offer, affer,otter,atter,ofter,after, otfer, atfer, offer,affer等等。該可能字詞可從該前端判定選擇最高符 合可能性至最低符合可能性的字元所構成。當一或多個高 度可能的字詞被找出時,可能性較低的字元便可以不被使 用。為了簡化該描述,在第3 A圖中假設未知字詞之使用 頻率為0,而已知字詞如often,after與offer之使用頻率 為1。在第A圖中,由該使用頻率結果以及該字詞中使用 之候選字詞的符合可能性而計算一候選字詞之符合指示 器。舉例來說,在第3A圖中,字元‘〇,,‘f,,‘t,,‘e,及‘η, 的的符合可能性分別為0.6,0.34,0· 5,0.32,0.42,而該字 詞‘often’的使用頻率為1。因此,符合該字詞“often”的一 指示器被判定為0.0137。類似地,字詞“after,,及“offer”的 指示器分別為0.0039及0.0082。當該後端工具選擇最有 可能的字詞,便會選擇“often”。注意該字詞之“指示器,,可 被正規化以排序該候選字詞。 在本發明之一實施例中,一或多個輸入為明確的,亦 即與單一筆畫、字元、音節或音素相關,因而符合每個字 元等等的可能性等於1 〇〇%。在本發明之另一實施例中,一 24 200538969 明確輸入自該辨識前端產生一特定數值集合,其使得該非 模糊後端僅配對該確切字元等等在每個候選字詞的對應位 置中。在本發明之另一實施例中,明確輸入被保留數字、 適當的讀音符號(diacritics)以及重音標記及/或其他定義 符號,並於字詞之内與之間被保留標點符號。For example, as shown in Figure 3B, a back-end tool receives all candidates and determines a list of possible words including: ottcn, attcn, ftcn, aftcn, otfcn, atfcn, offcn, affcn, otten, atten, often, aften, otfen, atfen, offen, affen, otter, attcr, oftcr, after, otfer, atfer, offer, affer, otter, atter, ofter, after, otfer, atfer, offer, affer, etc. The possible word can be formed by selecting the character with the highest matching possibility to the lowest matching possibility from the front end judgment. When one or more highly probable words are found, the less probable characters can be left out. To simplify the description, in Figure 3A, it is assumed that the frequency of use of unknown words is 0, and the frequency of use of known words such as often, after and offer is 1. In Fig. A, a coincidence indicator of a candidate word is calculated from the result of the frequency of use and the possibility of coincidence of the candidate word used in the word. For example, in Fig. 3A, the coincidence possibilities of the characters' 0 ,, 'f ,,' t ,, 'e, and' η, "are 0.6, 0.34, 0.5, 0.32, 0.42, The word 'often' is used frequently. Therefore, an indicator matching the word "often" was determined to be 0.0137. Similarly, the indicators for the words "after," and "offer" are 0.0039 and 0.0082, respectively. When the back-end tool selects the most likely word, it will select "often". Note the "indicator" for that word , Can be normalized to sort the candidate terms. In one embodiment of the present invention, one or more inputs are explicit, that is, related to a single stroke, character, syllable, or phoneme, so the probability of meeting each character, etc. is equal to 100%. In another embodiment of the present invention, a 24 200538969 explicit input generates a specific value set from the recognition front end, which makes the non-fuzzy back end only pair the exact character and so on in the corresponding position of each candidate word. In another embodiment of the present invention, the reserved numbers, appropriate diacritics, and accent marks and / or other defining symbols are explicitly entered, and punctuation marks are reserved within and between words.

第4C圖說明當一前後文及/或文法分析進一步協助解 決該模糊之一情形。舉例來說,第4C圖中該使用者已輸 入該字詞“It is an”。以一文法分析而言,該裝置預測接續 字詞為一名詞。因此,該裝置進一步調整該候選字詞之順 序而提升屬於名詞之候選字詞。因此,該最有可能的字詞 成為“offer”而非“often”。然而,由於一形容詞也可能位於 該名詞及該字詞“an”之間,該裝置仍會呈現其他選項以供 使用者選擇,如“often”及“after”。 第5圖為一流程圖,其說明依據本發明之使用者輸入 的處理。於步驟 5 01,該系統接收一字詞之手寫輸入。之 後於步驟503建立可能符合該字詞之手寫中的每個字元的 一候選字元列表。步驟5 0 5自該候選字元列表中判定一候 選孛詞列表。步驟5 07結合該候選字詞之頻率指示器以及 符合該候選字元之可能性以判定符合該候選字詞之可能 性。步驟509依據符合該候選字詞之可能性而消去一部分 的候選字詞。步驟5 1 1呈現一或多個候選字詞以供使用者 選擇。 雖然第5圖說明處理手寫輸入之一流程圖,從此說明 中可暸解語音輸入也可以一類似方式加以處理,其中一語 音辨識模組對該字詞中的每個音素建立候選音素。 26 200538969 又 字 及 面 臨 更 槽 的 記 憶 體 及 電 腦 處 辨 識 系 統 的 高 錯 誤 率 以 及 需 常 低 〇 本 發 明 之 一 實 施 例 結 音 辨 識 引 擎 所 回 報 之 相 關 可 端 以 及 可 利 用 這 些 音 素 而 形 統 白 動 修 正 該 語 音 辨 識輪 出 在 本 發 明 之 一 實 施 例 中 於 接 收 每 次 輸 入 時 在 顯 示 器 給 該 使 用 者 〇 該 候 選 字 詞 以 性 所 判 定 的 順 序 加 以 呈 現 , 最 有 可 能 的 的 字 詞 會 出 現 在 序 列 之 提 出 解 釋 的 其 中 之 的 輸 入 會 起 始 — 新 的 輸 入 序 在 本 發 明 之 另 — 態 樣 中 示 器 上 , 最 好 是 位 於 該 文 字 候 選 字 詞 為 依 據 該 符 合 度 量 重 複 地 啟 動 一 特 別 指 定 的 選 可 能 性 所 判 定 之 順 序 中 呈 現 字 詞 〇 一 輸 入 序 列 也 會 在 指 及 有 效 地 選 擇 該 序 列 之 其 中 出 之 後 被 結 束 因 而 隨後 的 依 據 本 發 明 之 一 混 合 系 字 母 音 節 音 素 等 等 執 行Figure 4C illustrates a situation where contextual and / or grammatical analysis further assists in resolving one of the ambiguities. For example, in Figure 4C, the user has entered the word "It is an". In terms of grammatical analysis, the device predicts the continuation word as a noun. Therefore, the device further adjusts the order of the candidate words to promote candidate words belonging to a noun. Therefore, the most likely word becomes "offer" instead of "often". However, since an adjective may also be between the noun and the word "an", the device will still present other options for the user to choose, such as "often" and "after". Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a process of user input according to the present invention. At step 501, the system receives handwritten input of a word. A step 503 is followed to establish a candidate character list that may match each character in the handwriting of the word. Step 505 determines a candidate word list from the candidate character list. Step 507 combines the frequency indicator of the candidate word and the possibility of matching the candidate character to determine the possibility of matching the candidate word. Step 509 deletes a part of the candidate words according to the possibility of matching the candidate words. Step 5 1 1 presents one or more candidate words for the user to select. Although Figure 5 illustrates a flowchart for processing handwritten input, it can be understood from this description that speech input can also be processed in a similar manner, in which a speech recognition module creates candidate phonemes for each phoneme in the word. 26 200538969 The high error rate of the recognition system facing the more memory and computer systems and the need for constant low. The relevant report by the knot recognition engine of one embodiment of the present invention is reasonable and can use these phonemes to form white Dynamically revise the speech recognition turn-out. In one embodiment of the present invention, each time an input is received, it is displayed to the user on the display. The candidate words are presented in the order determined by sex. The most likely words will appear.

In addition, due to today's efforts to correct speech, its adoption is based on the known possibility of using a set of candidate phonemes and monolingual capabilities as well as the use of these output after-words. The department 0 'is presented in a word selection list on candidate words that match the input sequence. Calculating the coincidence of each candidate word is therefore considered to be the top of the list based on the match metric. Selecting this input ends an input sequence and therefore the subsequent columns. Only one candidate word appears at the insertion point where the display is being created. The displayed ones are considered the most likely. With optional input, the user can replace the displayed one or more activations of the displayed selected input with the matching alternative candidate words to present an explanation for the system to actually input a new input sequence.

The invention can be used with alphabetic languages, such as English and Spanish, where the output of the handwriting recognition front end is a letter or pen day and its correlation. A hand-written non-fuzzy operation of a one-letter language can be performed at the word level, where each word lexically includes multiple letters. The present invention can also be used with semantic language, such as the output of the handwriting recognition front end in Chinese and Japanese as pen day and its related possibilities. The handwritten non-fuzzy operation of Italian language can be performed at the root / component or letter level. This non-fuzzy operation can be further operated at a higher level, such as a slice of a two-string, a triple-string, and so on. Furthermore, the grammatical structure of the language is used for the non-fuzzy operation to select the best overall fit of the input. The present invention can also be accompanied by the phonetic or letter expression of the semantic language so that the non-fuzzy operation can be performed on syllables, semantic letters, words, and / or phrases. Similarly, the present invention can also be used for speech recognition, where the output of the speech front end contains phonemes and their associated coincidence possibilities.

For example, after successfully identifying the first few letters of a word with a high probability, the system can provide a list of words at the rear, where the first few letters are the same as the matching letter. A user can select a word from the list to complete the entry. Alternatively, an indication that one of the words in the list is close to some may prompt the user to be displayed by applying the specified input to one of the list inputs based on the completion of the word; the subsequent pop-up word list display contains The word is a finite word and can indicate further completions in order. Each of the first few characters may have only one high probability candidate, which is used to select the to-be-completed word list. Alternatively, one or more of the first characters may contain ambiguity, so several high-probability combinations of the first few characters may be used to select the to-be-completed word list. The word list for completion can be sorted and displayed according to the likelihood that the word the user is trying to enter. For example, the word used for completion may be based on how often the word is used by the user in the language, in the article the user is editing, in a specific context, such as a dialog box, and / Or sorted by frequency of occurrence in phrases, digraphs, trigrams, idioms, etc. When one or more words in a phrase, double-liga, triple-liga, or idiomatic phrase, etc., immediately precede the word being processed, these phrases, double-liga, triple-hybrid The occurrence frequency of a string or idiom can be further combined with the frequency of the word when determining the ordering of the word to be completed. Words that are not in any of the currently known phrases, double ligatures, triple ligaments, idioms, etc. are considered in unlicensed houses with a very low frequency of occurrence 29 200538969. Similarly, a word that is not in the list of known words is treated as an unknown phrase with a very low frequency of occurrence. Therefore • The input of any word or the first part of a word can be processed to determine the possible input. In an embodiment of the present invention, the back end continuously obtains a candidate list of each word, stroke, and phoneme recognized by the style front end, and uses the list to sort the words to be completed. As the user provides more input, less likely words about completion are eliminated. Used for completion • The word list is reduced in size as the user provides more input until it does not exist or the user selects a word from the list. Furthermore, before the front end of the pattern recognition provides the first word of the continuation word to enter a candidate list, the back end has known phrases, two-character strings, three-character strings, Identifiers, etc. are used to determine the words to be determined, so as to determine a list of words to be completed, such as a phrase, a double ligature, a triple ligament, a idiom. Therefore, the present invention also determines the complete continuation word based on the most entered word of the user. In one embodiment of the present invention, the back end uses any stroke, word 70, syllable or Wild card of phonemes. The list of to-be-completed words according to a part of the input can be regarded as an example of using a wild card for one or more pen characters or phonemes to be input or to be received from the pattern recognition front end. • In the embodiment of the present invention, the front end may not recognize the picture, character or phoneme. The front crawl does not stop the input processing to force the user to re-type the input. On the contrary, the front end can tolerate the resulting merged words, and any of the most updated and updated words with fuzzy input and JL > Wordable user day, pen, messenger, teleport 30

At a high level, the back end can resolve the ambiguity without forcing the user to retype the input. This greatly enhances the user-friendliness of the department. In one embodiment of the invention, the back end automatically replaces one or more inputs from the front end with a wild card. For example, when no possible words are found from a known word list, the backend can replace the most ambiguous input with a wild card to expand the candidate combination. For example, a list with a large number of low-availability candidates can be replaced by a wild card. In an embodiment, the candidate list is provided by the month J terminal, and thus the probability that the input meets one of the lists will be higher than a critical value. Therefore, a fuzzy input has a low probability of candidates. In other embodiments, the front end provides a list, so that each candidate is more likely to meet the input than one, so it is very unlikely that a fuzzy input is one of the candidates. ‘The system implements wild cards, such as pen pens that are suitable for any letter, giving the same possibility, so it can handle the situation where no valid word is found when the wild card is not used. In one embodiment of the present invention, the backend establishes the same candidate from the combination of candidate strokes, characters, or phonemes provided by ^ ίΙίΤ irtjf J ~; &, difficult words, for example That is, the candidate characters for each character input can be sorted according to the likelihood of being input. The establishment of the candidate word begins to extend to characters that are less likely to match. When the candidate iP + «χ ~, and prepositions are found in the list of known terms, it is less likely to match the element and may not be used to build further candidate terms. In one implementation ', the system displays the most likely words or a list of all candidate words sorted by the calculated probability X. The system can automatically add a general word that should be able to wait for a large number of cases. There are examples of non-compliant numbers that can be added 31 200538969 to help users. This includes, for example, auto accented characters, auto and punctuation, and definition symbols. One aspect of the present invention provides a language back end to be used simultaneously in forms such as speech recognition, handwriting recognition, hard keyboard or touch keyboard input. In another embodiment of the present invention, a language is used to defuzzify the candidate word. After combining a back-end component from the selected input to determine candidate words and their coincidence possibilities, one is used to rank the candidate words according to language characteristics. For example, the second paragraph of B further uses the frequency of words such as the user in the language, an article being edited, an introductory text that requires the input, and candidate words derived from the back-end component. Deblur the candidate. The language backend can also perform a deblurring operation based on strings, triplets, phrases, and so on. The language backend can perform operations based on the context, grammatical structure, and so on. Since the tasks performed by the language backend are the same for various methods such as speech recognition, handwriting recognition, or input using a hard keyboard or touch keyboard, the language backend can be shared among Φ forms. In one embodiment of the present invention, 'a language serves multiple input forms, so when a user combines different to provide an input, only a single language backend is required to support mixed types. In another aspect of the present invention, 'from a specific front end' is considered as a clear candidate word component, and if it is not 100% of the recorded character, it is one of the clear pen and word that the back end will use. Yuanhehe contains its finite words in the corresponding position. The invention also includes capitalization so that the back-end is used as the front-end language back-end on multiple input-control screens. The language, the user, etc. use the conformable one or two ligatures again, and the input side control of the de-ambiguity operation. Multiple input terminals on the screen simultaneously input the form and the input mode. Each input possibility syllable contains a mixture of 32 200538969. First, it uses the candidate set from _ or multiple recognition systems and the sex. Use some of the known characteristics of to solve the betel in. Resolving the ambiguity in the handwriting / speech recognition can improve the recognition rate of the system to promote user friendliness
