A system and method for completing a character of a text of a digital document on a computing device, the computing device comprising a processor, a memory, and at least one non-transitory computer readable medium for recognizing input under control of the processor, the at least one non-transitory computer readable medium is configured to cause display (S) of at least one typeset character of the text on a display interface of the computing device; detect a handwritten input stroke (S) performed on the digital document in the vicinity of a typeset character; identify an first typeset character (S) if the typeset character belongs to a list of base characters according to a language model; retrieve a predefined character version (S) of the first typeset character from the memory; generate a hybrid character (S) by replacing the initial typeset character by the predefined character; generate a list of character candidates (S) with associated probabilities of recognition of the hybrid character provided by a recognition expert; select a recognized character (S) from the character candidate list by using a language expert.

Completing typeset characters using handwritten strokes

A system, method and computer program product for use in providing interactive ink from handwriting input to a computing device are provided. The computing device is connected to an input device in the form of an input surface. A user is able to provide input by applying pressure to or gesturing above the input surface using either his or her finger or an instrument such as a stylus or pen. The present system and method monitors the input strokes. The computing device further has a processor and an ink management system for recognizing the handwriting input under control of the processor. The ink management system is configured to cause display of, on a display interface of a computing device, first digital ink in accordance with first handwriting input, allocate references to ink elements of the first digital ink, map the references to corresponding recognized elements of the first handwriting input, and determine and store, in the memory of a computing device, ink objects including the references and mapped recognized elements.

System and method for digital ink interactivity

A reconfigurable computation device for image processing, the device including a neighborhood-based computation matrix, generating pairing sub-scores between pairs of pixels resulting from a first series of operations configurable via a configuration register; a flexible reduction tree, carrying out a second series of operations configurable via the configuration register, on neighborhoods of pixels configurable via the configuration register; and an analysis matrix, carrying out computations configurable via the configuration register on the results arising from the flexible reduction tree.

Flexible pixel-neighborhood-based reconfigurable computation device

An architecture for processing a data stream forming matrices of pixels of dimension Nl&#xd7;Nc. The processing architecture includes processing units and interconnection means making it possible to transfer the data stream between them. Each processing unit includes a control unit, neighborhood processors capable of carrying out the instructions from the control unit and a neighborhood storage unit enabling each neighborhood processor to access a neighborhood of dimension Vl&#xd7;Vc. The invention makes it possible to extend the dimension of the neighborhoods accessible to the neighborhood processors by a coupling of two or more processing units. To this end, the architecture includes a storage manager enabling the neighborhood processors of the coupled processing units to access adjoining neighborhoods of pixels, and means for communication between neighborhood processors allowing for an exchange of data relating to the different neighborhoods.

Data stream processing architecture enabling extension of neighborhood mask

A method for preloading into a hierarchy of memories, bitstreams representing the configuration information for a reconfigurable processing system including several processing units. The method includes an off-execution step of determining tasks that can be executed on a processing unit subsequently to the execution of a given task. The method also includes, during execution of the given task, computing a priority for each of the tasks that can be executed. The priority depends on information relating to the current execution of the given task. The method also includes, during execution of the given task, sorting the tasks that can be executed in the order of their priorities. The method also includes, during execution of the given task, preloading into the memory, bitstreams representing the information of the configurations for the execution of the tasks that can be executed, while favoring the tasks whose priority is the highest.
