Abstract: Described is a technology by which online recognition of handwritten input data is combined with offline recognition and processing to obtain a combined recognition result. In general, the combination improves overall recognition accuracy. In one aspect, online and offline recognition is separately performed to obtain online and offline character-level recognition scores for candidates (hypotheses). A statistical analysis-based combination algorithm, an AdaBoost algorithm, and/or a neural network-based combination may determine a combination function to combine the scores to produce a result set of one or more results. Online and offline radical-level recognition may be performed. For example, a HMM recognizer may generate online radical scores used to build a radical graph, which is then rescored using the offline radical recognition scores. Paths in the rescored graph are then searched to provide the combined recognition result, e.g., corresponding to the path with the highest score.

Abstract: Described is searching directly based on digital ink input to provide a result set of one or more items. Digital ink input (e.g., a handwritten character, sketched shape, gesture, drawing picture) is provided to a search engine and interpreted thereby, with a search result (or results) returned. Different kinds of digital ink can be used as search input without changing modes. The search engine includes a unified digital ink recognizer that recognizes digital ink as a character or another type of digital ink. When the recognition result is a character, the character may be used in a keyword search to find one or more corresponding non-character items, e.g., from a data store. When the recognition result is a non-character item, the non-character item is provided as the result, without keyword searching. The search result may appear as one or more item representations, such as in a user interface result panel.

Abstract: Techniques for providing arbitrary precision floating number (APFN) processing are disclosed. In some aspects, an APFN store may be used to store a large number (i.e., an APFN) having many significant digits, which in turn may enable a high degree of precision in mathematical operations. An APFN module may be used to create and define the APFN store. The APFN module may enable a user to define a precision (significant digits) for the large number that corresponds to the size of an array of bytes in the APFN store that are allocated for storing the large number. In further aspects, the APFN store may be used to store additional intermediary data and a resultant.

Abstract: A hybrid greatest common divisor (GCD) calculator analyzes characteristics of polynomials and selects a particular GCD algorithm from multiple available GCD algorithms based on a combination of characteristics of the polynomials. The selected GCD algorithm is then applied to calculate the GCD of the polynomials.

Abstract: Data having express or implied relationships may be displayed by selecting a starting entity in a data structure, building a relationship tree, and building and optimizing a relationship matrix based on the relationship tree. The optimized relationship matrix may be used to layout and render a graphical image that positions various elements with respect to the starting entity based on the relationships. The distance matrix may be optimized by creating a first distance matrix based on the relationship tree, developing a dissimilarity matrix based on expressed or implied relationships, and multiplying the dissimilarity matrix by a weighting factor to determine a distance matrix that may be optimized by multi-dimensional scaling. An optimized weighting factor may be determined and used to select an optimized distance matrix.

Abstract: Described is a unified digital ink recognizer that recognizes various different types of digital ink data, such as handwritten character data and custom data, e.g., sketched shapes, handwritten gestures, and/or drawn pictures, without further participation by a user such as recognition mode selection or parameter input. For a custom item, the output may be a Unicode value from a private use area of Unicode. Building the unified digital ink recognizer may include defining the data set to be recognized, extracting features of training samples corresponding to the dataset items to build a recognizer model, evaluating the recognizer model using testing data, and modifying the recognizer model using tuning data. The extracted features may be processed into feature data for a multi-dimensional nearest neighbor recognizer approach; the extracted features for the samples of each class is calculated and combined into the feature set for this class in the resulting recognizer model.

Abstract: Techniques for detecting, analyzing, and/or reporting code clone are described herein. In one or more implementations, clone-code detection is performed on one or more source code bases to find true and near clones of a subject code snippet that a user (e.g., a software developer) expressly or implicitly selected. In one or more other implementations, code clone is analyzed to estimate the code-improvement-potential (such as bug-potential and code-refactoring-potential) properties of clones. One or more other implementations present the results of code clone analysis with indications (e.g., rankings) of the estimated properties of the respective the clones.

Abstract: An exemplary method for online character recognition of East Asian characters includes acquiring time sequential, online ink data for a handwritten East Asian character, conditioning the ink data to produce conditioned ink data where the conditioned ink data includes information as to writing sequence of the handwritten East Asian character and extracting features from the conditioned ink data where the features include a tangent feature, a curvature feature, a local length feature, a connection point feature and an imaginary stroke feature. Such a method may determine neighborhoods for ink data and extract features for each neighborhood. An exemplary Hidden Markov Model based character recognition system may use various exemplary methods for training and character recognition.

Abstract: A mechanism for recognizing and inputting handwritten mathematical expressions into a computer by providing part of a multi-path framework is described. The part of the multi-path framework includes a subordinate sub-expression analysis component. A method for analyzing a handwritten mathematical expression for a subordinate sub-expression includes identifying sub-expressions based on dominant symbols and determining a character for potential dominant symbols based upon sub-expression information. A determination may be made whether an expression structure candidate is valid and valid expression structure candidates may be stored in a parse tree.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for authentication are disclosed. The method includes: deciding to release a connection or continue a current service according to native information and network policy after an AKA authentication procedure fails. When the EPS AKA authentication procedure fails, the connection is not released immediately in the present invention, but the connection is released or the current service is continued according to the native information and network policy, thus avoiding unnecessary release of connections and saving resources.

Abstract: Exemplary methods, systems, and computer-readable media for developing, training and/or using models for online handwriting recognition of characters are described. An exemplary method for building a trainable radical-based HMM for use in character recognition includes defining radical nodes, where a radical node represents a structural element of an character, and defining connection nodes, where a connection node represents a spatial relationship between two or more radicals. Such a method may include determining a number of paths in the radical-based HMM using subsequence direction histogram vector (SDHV) clustering and determining a number of states in the radical-based HMM using curvature scale space-based (CSS) corner detection.

Abstract: Described herein is technology for, among other things, accessing error report information. It involves various techniques and tools for analyzing and interrelating failure data contained in error reports and thereby facilitating developers to more easily and quickly solve programming bugs. Numerous parameters may also be specified for selecting and searching error reports. Several reliability metrics are provided to better track software reliability situations. The reliability metrics facilitate the tracking of the overall situation of failures that happen in the real word by providing metrics based on error reports (e.g., failure occurrence trends, failure distributions across different languages).

Abstract: A forward pass through a sequence of strokes representing a handwritten equation is performed from the first stroke to the last stroke in the sequence. At each stroke, a path score is determined for a plurality of symbol-relation pairs that each represents a symbol and its spatial relation to a predecessor symbol. A symbol graph having nodes and links is constructed by backtracking through the strokes from the last stroke to the first stroke and assigning scores to the links based on the path scores for the symbol-relation pairs. The symbol graph is used to recognize a mathematical expression based in part on the scores for the links and the mathematical expression is stored.

Abstract: Described is a technology, such as implemented in a computational software program, by which a minimal polynomial is efficiently determined for a radical expression over the ring Z of integer numbers or the ring Q of rational numbers. The levels of the radical are grouped into a level permutation group that is used to find a level permutation set. An annihilation polynomial is found based upon the level permutation set. The annihilation polynomial is factored, and a selection mechanism selects the minimal polynomial based upon the annihilation polynomial's factors.

Abstract: Exemplary techniques are described for selecting radical sets for use in probabilistic East Asian character recognition algorithms. An exemplary technique includes applying a decomposition rule to each East Asian character of the set to generate a progressive splitting graph where the progressive splitting graph comprises radicals as nodes, formulating an optimization problem to find an optimal set of radicals to represent the set of East Asian characters using maximum likelihood and minimum description length and solving the optimization problem for the optimal set of radicals. Another exemplary technique includes selecting an optimal set of radicals by using a general function that characterizes a radical with respect to other East Asian characters and a complex function that characterizes complexity of a radical.
