Application ID: 11823644

Base Claim:
1. At least one computer storage medium that is not a signal or carrier wave per se, the at least one computer storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method comprising combining online recognition scores corresponding to character or radical level recognition of handwritten input data, with offline recognition scores corresponding to character or radical level recognition of the handwritten input data, to obtain a combined recognition result, and outputting the combined recognition result.

Claim 6:
6. The at least one computer storage medium of claim 1 wherein combining online recognition scores with offline recognition scores comprises, performing online recognition via a radical recognizer to obtain online recognition scores corresponding to radical ink data, building a radical graph representing candidates based on boundary data of the radical ink and the online radical scores, performing offline recognition via a radical recognizer to obtain offline recognition scores corresponding to the radical ink, combining the online radical recognition scores with the offline radical recognition scores to obtain a new combined radical score for each candidate of each radical ink data and updating the corresponding score in the radical graph based on the new combined radical score, and processing paths in the graph to determine the combined recognition result.
