Abstract

See full text

The present invention utilizes generic and user-specific features of handwriting samples to provide adaptive handwriting recognition with a minimum level of user-specific enrollment data. By allowing generic and user-specific classifiers to facilitate in a recognition process, the features of a specific user's handwriting can be exploited to quickly ascertain characteristics of handwriting characters not yet entered by the user. Thus, new characters can be recognized without requiring a user to first enter that character as enrollment or 'training' data. In one instance of the present invention, processing of generic features is accomplished by a generic classifier trained on multiple users. In another instance of the present invention, a user-specific classifier is employed to modify a generic classifier's classification as required to provide user-specific handwriting recognition.
