Abstract
A method and system for forming an interpretation of an input expression, where the input expression is expressed in a medium, the interpretation is a sequence of symbols, and each symbol is a symbol in a known symbol set. In general, the system processes an acquired input data set representative of the input expression, to form a set of segments, which are then used to specify a set of consegmentations. Each consegmentation and each possible interpretation for the input expression is represented in a data structure. The data structure is graphically representable by a graph comprising a two-dimensional array of nodes arranged in rows and columns and selectively connected by directed arcs. Each path, extending through the nodes and along the directed arcs, represents one consegmentation and one possible interpretation for the input expression. All of the consegmentations and all of the possible interpretations for the input expression are represented by the set of paths extending through the graph. For each row of nodes in the graph, a set of scores is produced for the known symbol set, using a complex of optimally trained neural information processing networks. Thereafter the syst…
