Abstract

In embodiments consistent with the subject matter of this disclosure, a user may input strokes as digital ink to a processing device. The processing device may partition the input strokes into multiple regions of strokes. A first recognizer and a second recognizer may score grammar objects included in regions and represented by chart entries. The scores may be converted to a converted score, which may have at least a near standard normal distribution. The processing device may present a recognition result based on highest converted scores according to a recurrence formula. The processing device may receive a correction hint with respect to misrecognized strokes and may add a penalty score with respect to chart entries representing grammar objects breaking the correction hint. Incremental recognition may be performed when a pause is detected during inputting of strokes.
