  • Patent number: 11163949
    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for correction of user input are presented. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a plurality of user strings, selecting one or more string pairs from the plurality of user strings based on a character operator difference between the first string and the second string being below a threshold number, filtering the one or more string pairs to generate a filtered set of strings pairs representing corrections, and correcting user input in a different session by replacing input that matches a first string in a filtered string pair with a second string in the filtered string pair.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10467338
    Abstract: Systems and methods for receiving a first string from a user in a user session, tracking a first response to the first string from the user in the user session, receiving, after receiving the first string, a second string from the user in the user session, the second string having a character operator difference that is below a threshold number from the first string, tracking a second response to the second string from the user in the user session, associating the first string with the second string in response to the second response comprising a higher number of responses as compared with the first response, removing the association between the first string with the second string in response to the second string being a correction of the first string, and correcting, using the association, user input by replacing a portion of the user input that matches the first string with the second string.
