摘要

A method and system for improving the accuracy of digital ink (310) searches is disclosed. The method includes receiving a search input query (370) from a user via a user terminal and determining a specialized format of digital ink , by a variety of means, then, based on the determined specialized format of digital ink, a digital ink searching algorithm is selected. A search (380) o f a digital ink database (350) can then be performed for a match to the search input query (370) by utilising the digital ink searching algorithm, which is selected from a variety of algorithms so as to improve the accuracy of the search.
