  • Patent number: 12026368
    Abstract: In an implementation, text input is received from an enhanced suggestive keyboard executing on a mobile computing device. One or more tokens are generated by dividing the text input. A value corresponding to each known token of the one or more tokens is generated and used to determine model inputs. A corpus discriminator is used to determine how likely it is that the model inputs originate from or approximate a particular corpus. An intended intensity, a demonstrated intensity, and the model inputs, are used to evaluate, using a set of memory-based predictor models, the model inputs against a particular memory-based predictor model for each of the intended intensity and the demonstrated intensity. One or more intended intensity suggestions or one or more demonstrated intensity suggestions are displayed using the enhanced suggestive keyboard.
