Systems and methods of building and using custom word lists

摘要

Standard word lists that are often used for such operations as predictive text, spell checking, and word completion are based on general linguistic data that might not accurately reflect actual text usage patterns of particular users. Systems and methods of building and using a custom word list for use in text operations on an electronic device are provided. A collection of text items associated with a user of the electronic device is scanned to identify words in the text items. A weighting is then assigned to each identified word, and the words and corresponding weightings are stored.

a processor; and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving an ambiguous input,determining whether the ambiguous input corresponds to one of a plurality of stored words, each stored word having an assigned weighting;based on determining that the ambiguous input does not correspond to a stored word, storing the ambiguous input as a new word in association with a weighting in a custom word list.
