METHOD OF IMPROVING RECOGNITION ACCURACY IN FORM-BASED DATA ENTRY SYSTEMS

摘要

The invention provides a method of interpreting data input to a form-based data entry system, including decoding data entered into a particular form field such that its information content can be determined, said information content being in a consistent machine-readable format, wherein said decoding of data includes determining one or more possible values of information content, certain pre-defined possible outcomes being given a relatively higher probability of being correct, and said pre-defined possible outcomes being dependent on the context of the particular form field.
