  • Patent number: 12548358
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method implemented by a device for displaying strokes of digital ink in a display area and for performing text line extraction to extract text lines from the strokes. In particular, the text line extraction may involve slicing the display area into strips, ordering for each strip the strokes into ordered lists which form collectively a first set of ordered lists, forming for each strip a second set of ordered lists by filtering out from the ordered lists of the first set strokes which are below a given size threshold, and performing a neural net analysis based on said first and second sets to determine for each stroke a respective text line to which it belongs.

  • Publication number: 20240331428
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for recognizing handwriting input from handwriting strokes of digital ink, on a computing device, the computing device comprising a processor with at least two processing units configured to process data in parallel, a memory and at least one non-transitory computer readable medium for recognizing input under control of the processor, the method, comprising: receiving the handwriting strokes of digital ink; performing element extraction from said strokes to extract a plurality of elements; recognizing the plurality of elements in parallel by: sending at least two elements of the extracted plurality of elements to at least two processing units, respectively; sending successively the remaining elements of the extracted plurality of elements to the processing units as the processing units become available; compiling the plurality of recognized elements to generate the recognized handwriting input.
