A method and system for facilitating text input is disclosed. The method comprises: invoking an input assistant from within an application in an operating environment at a client, the input assistant being a standalone input service within the same operating environment as the application, receiving a text string from a user in an input field of the application, providing, by the input assistant, input prediction for completing the text string, selecting an input text of at least one word in the input field of the application, retrieving, by the input assistant, text content related to the input text from one or more text assistance services in communication with the input assistant, presenting the received text content to the user for assistance in the user's text input.

Method and system for facilitating text input

Systems, methods, and apparatuses including computer program products for generating a custom language model. In one implementation, a method is provided. The method includes receiving a collection of documents; clustering the documents into one or more clusters; generating a cluster vector for each cluster of the one or more clusters; generating a target vector associated with a target profile; comparing the target vector with each of the cluster vectors; selecting one or more of the one or more clusters based on the comparison; and generating a language model using documents from the one or more selected clusters.

Custom language models

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, in which an input method editor receives Roman character inputs, identifies keywords for candidate sets of a non-Roman character, and identifies an associated resource location. Upon identifying an associated resource location, associating the resource location with the candidate set of non-Roman characters.
