Abstract: A method for providing user input recommendations includes receiving, by a recommendation generation engine, an indication that a message addressed to a user has been received. The method includes analyzing, by the recommendation generation engine, at least one word within the message. The method includes determining, by the recommendation generation engine, a plurality of candidate input recommendations, based on analyzing the at least one word. The method includes identifying, by the recommendation generation engine, a subset of the plurality of candidate input recommendations, each of the subset associated with a confidence score that satisfies a threshold level of confidence. The method includes modifying, by the recommendation generation engine, a graphical user interface displayed to the user to include a display of at least one of the identified subset associated with the confidence score that satisfies a threshold level of confidence.

Abstract: A method for recommending modification of user input includes receiving, by a graphical user interface (GUI) provided by a virtual keyboard application, user input representing a first word entered by a user. The virtual keyboard application accesses at least one word entered by the user prior to the entering of the first word. The virtual keyboard application determines an edit distance between the first word and each of a plurality of candidate modifications, based on analyzing the first word, the touchpoint and the at least one word entered prior to the entering of the first word, the plurality of candidate modifications selected from a dictionary in a language matching a language of the first word. The virtual keyboard application identifies a subset of the plurality of candidate modifications. The virtual keyboard application modifies the GUI to display at least one of the identified subset.
