Abstract

For displaying corrected logogram input, code detects a difference between the logogram input and a logogram recognized from the logogram input. The code further displays the corrected logogram input in response to the difference.

Claims

1. An apparatus comprising:

a graphical input that accepts a logogram input;

a display that displays the logogram input;

a processor;

a memory that stores code executable by the processor, the code comprising;

code that detects a difference between the logogram input and a logogram recognized from the logogram input; and

code that displays a corrected logogram input on the display in response to the difference.

2. The apparatus of claim 1, the code further comprising code that recognizes the logogram from the logogram input.

3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the logogram input comprises a phonetic representation of the logogram and the corrected logogram input comprises a corrected phonetic representation.

4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the logogram input comprises a logogram radical of the logogram and the corrected logogram input comprises a corrected logogram radical.

5. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein detecting the difference between the logogram input and the logogram radical comprises:

calculating a resemblance score for the logogram input and one or more potential logograms; and

identifying the logogram from one of a resemblance score for the logogram exceeding a resemblance threshold and selecting the logogram from a list of candidate logograms, wherein each candidate logogram has a resemblance score for the candidate logogram that exceeds a candidate threshold.

6. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the corrected logogram radical comprises strokes.

7. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the corrected logogram radical comprises strokes in a stroke order.

8. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the logogram input comprises strokes and the corrected logogram input comprises strokes in a stroke order for the logogram.

9. A method comprising:

detecting, by use of a processor, a difference between a logogram input and a logogram recognized from the logogram input; and

displaying a corrected logogram input in response to the difference.

10. The method of claim 9, the method further comprising recognizing the logogram from the logogram input.

11. The method of claim 9, wherein the logogram input comprises a phonetic representation of the logogram and the corrected logogram input comprises a corrected phonetic representation.

12. The method of claim 9, wherein the logogram input comprises a logogram radical of the logogram and the corrected logogram input comprises a corrected logogram radical.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein detecting the difference between the logogram input and the logogram radical comprises:

calculating a resemblance score for the logogram input and one or more potential logograms; and

identifying the logogram from one of a resemblance score for the logogram exceeding a resemblance threshold and selecting the logogram from a list of candidate logograms, wherein each candidate logogram has a resemblance score for the candidate logogram that exceeds a candidate threshold.

14. The method of claim 12, wherein the corrected logogram radical comprises strokes.

15. The method of claim 12, wherein the corrected logogram radical comprises strokes in a stroke order.

16. The method of claim 9, wherein the logogram input comprises strokes and the corrected logogram input comprises strokes in a stroke order for the logogram.

17. A program product comprising a computer readable storage medium that stores code executable by a processor, the executable code comprising code to perform:

detecting a difference between a logogram input and a logogram recognized from the logogram input; and

displaying a corrected logogram input in response to the difference.

18. The program product of claim 17, the code further performing recognizing the logogram from the logogram input.

19. The program product of claim 17, wherein the logogram input comprises a phonetic representation of the logogram and the corrected logogram input comprises a corrected phonetic representation.

20. The program product of claim 17, wherein the logogram input comprises a logogram radical of the logogram and the corrected logogram input comprises a corrected logogram radical.
