Abstract: A method and system for language identification are provided. The system includes a feature set of a plurality of character strings of varying length with associated information. The associated information includes one or more significance scores for a character string for one or more of a plurality of languages. Means are provided for detecting character strings from the feature set within a token from an input text. The system uses a finite-state device and the associated information is provided as glosses at the final nodes of the finite-state device for each character string. The associated information can also include significance scores based on linguistic rules.

Abstract: A computer-based system for providing electronic monitoring and management services for an instant messaging (IM) user. The system can include a processor configured to execute computer-readable instructions. The system can also include an IM server, wherein the IM server accepts connections from one or more IM clients. Additionally, the system can include a bot program configured to execute on the processor. The bot program can be configured to receive a request from a first user to manage messages on behalf of the first user and further receive a token from the first user and a user name associated with the first user, wherein the first user is logged into the IM server via an IM client of the one or more IM clients. Also, the bot program can be configured to receive a notification indicating that the first user is logged off the IM server.

Abstract: The present invention can include an automated solution for incorporating diagnostic data within an image of a screen capture image. When a screen capture event is detected, a screen capture image can be generated. The software applications contained within the screen capture image can be identified. Diagnostic data pertaining to the identified software applications can be automatically collected and incorporated into the screen capture image file.

Abstract: A method and arrangement for handling case and other orthographic variations in linguistic databases by explicit representation comprising: explicit storage of all orthographic and case variations of words in the dictionary, and use of extended cut and paste codes to control dictionary size explosion and to make the restoration of the lemma more efficient. This provides the advantage of allowing very efficient handling of case and orthographic variants while performing a dictionary lookup.
