Abstract

Learning to reorder alternates based on a user's personalized vocabulary may be provided. An alternate list provided to a user for replacing words input by the user via a character recognition application may be reordered based on data previously viewed or input by the user (personal data). The alternate list may contain generic data, for example, words for possible substitution with one or more words input by the user. By using the user's personal data and statistical learning methodologies in conjunction with generic data in the alternate list, the alternate list can be reordered to present a top alternate that more closely reflect the user's vocabulary. Accordingly, the user is presented with a top alternate that is more likely to be used by the user to replace data incorrectly input.
