1. A method for representing gestures made by a user, comprising:
- recognizing a gesture;
converting the recognized gesture into at least one recognition result, each recognition result comprising a sequence of symbols, wherein each symbol identifies an attribute of the recognized gesture; and
outputting the recognition result.

Abstract
Gesture and handwriting recognition agents provide possible interpretations of electronic ink. Recognition is performed on both individual strokes and combinations of strokes in the input ink lattice. The interpretations of electronic ink are classified and encoded as symbol complexes where symbols convey specific attributes of the contents of the stroke. The use of symbol complexes to represent strokes in the input ink lattice facilitates reference to sets of entities of a specific type.

13. A method for classifying and representing information, comprising:
-
recognizing an utterance containing information;
converting the information into at least one classification scheme, each classification scheme comprising a sequence of symbols, wherein each symbol identifies an attribute of the information contained in the utterance; and
outputting the classification scheme. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
