Abstract

A computer system with speech recognition system and handwriting recognition system are disclosed that work closely together to improve the total recognition accuracy of each alone. The handwriting recognition system may include a pen/stylus input device and associated program functions. The system or programs may be combined with computer telephony functions to provide intergrated applications having voice output programs, Internet access, e-mail/v-mail and personal information manager functions. The computer system can recognize speaker-dependent and speaker-independent speech, converting this information to computer recognizable text, which may be displayed onto a display device in near realtime. Speech recognition errors may be corrected via a pen input device, and the pen information may be recognized, converted to text and graphics. This data may then be displayed at near realtime or displayed later at a user specified time. Recognized handwritten pen information may be intergrated into the speech recognized text and stored in a data storage system.
