Abstract: A method for performing symbolic computations on a mathematical expression. The mathematical expression may be converted to a tree structure having one or more parent nodes and one or more child nodes. Each parent node may be a mathematical operation. Each child node may be a mathematical expression on which the mathematical operation is performed in a specified order. Each child node may be in a hierarchical relationship to one of the parent nodes. The parent nodes, the child nodes or both may be manipulated to perform a first symbolic computation on the mathematical expression.

Abstract: An opinion system infers the opinion of a sentence of a product review based on a probability that the sentence contains certain sequences of parts of speech that are commonly used to express an opinion as indicated by the training data and the probabilities of the training data. When provided with the sentence, the opinion system identifies possible sequences of parts of speech of the sentence that are commonly used to express an opinion and the probability that the sequence is the correct sequence for the sentence. For each sequence, the opinion system then retrieves a probability derived from the training data that the sequence contains an opinion word that expresses an opinion. The opinion system then retrieves a probability from the training data that the opinion words of the sentence are used to express an opinion. The opinion system then combines the probabilities to generate an overall probability that the sentence with that sequence expresses an opinion.

Abstract: Described is a multi-path handwriting recognition framework based upon stroke segmentation, symbol recognition, two-dimensional structure analysis and semantic structure analysis. Electronic pen input corresponding to handwritten input (e.g., a chemical expression) is recognized and output via a data structure, which may include multiple recognition candidates. A recognition framework performs stroke segmentation and symbol recognition on the input, and analyzes the structure of the input to output the data structure corresponding to recognition results. For chemical expressions, the structural analysis may perform a conditional sub-expression analysis for inorganic expressions, or organic bond detection, connection relationship analysis, organic atom determination and/or conditional sub-expression analysis for organic expressions. The structural analysis also performs subscript, superscript analysis and character determination. Further analysis may be performed, e.g.

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.

The exponents may be stored in a second array. One or more coefficients of the terms may be determined. The coefficients may be stored in a third array.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling a transmission window size, wherein a transmission condition of the transmission path between a transmitting element and a receiving element is checked when at least one of the transmitting and receiving elements moves from a first access network to a second access network. Then, the transmission window size is changed in response to the result of said checking step. Thereby, the transmission window can be decreased actively to thereby accelerate the control procedure and improve resource utilization.

Abstract: Described is a technology that provides an integrated platform for users to use different kinds of digital ink (e.g., handwritten characters, sketched shapes, handwritten formulas) when interacting with computer programs. The platform interprets the user's digital ink input and outputs one or more associated items into an application program. The output items can be customized for different application programs. In one aspect, the platform includes an ink panel having different operating modes for receiving digital ink, and a recognition service that recognizes different types of digital ink. The recognition service may include a unified recognizer that recognizes different types of digital ink, e.g., characters and shapes. Another recognizer may be included such as an equation recognizer. If the recognition result is text while in a non-text mode, the text may be used in a keyword search to locate items; otherwise, the recognition result may be used without keyword searching.

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: 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.
