Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology include accessing, by an electronic device, a plurality of lines of text data and text attributes corresponding to the plurality of lines of the text data. Aspects may also include, for each respective line of the plurality of lines of the text data, determining whether the respective line and the subsequent line correspond to separate paragraphs within the text data based on a first of the text attributes that corresponds to the respective line of the plurality of lines with a second of the text attributes that corresponds to a subsequent line of the plurality of lines. Aspects may further include generating output data for the plurality of lines and performing at least one process for the plurality of lines of the text data using the generated output data.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for stroke based control of handwriting input. The disclosed stroke based control facilitates selection, copy, paste, search, data detection and other operations for handwritten electronic text. The selection of text represented by handwritten strokes can be performed without drawing a lasso or other loop around the desired text, by using known boundaries of words and phrases in stroke space. Selection of text in this manner allows copy and/or paste of recognized words or phrases, of images of the words or phrases, and/or of the strokes themselves. Boundaries, in stroke space, of actionable data represented by the strokes can also allow action options to be provided when a user interacts with strokes within the boundary.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to handwriting on touch sensitive surfaces. In some examples, text suggestions strokes entered on a touch sensitive surface are viewed and selected in response to a rotatable input mechanism. In some examples, text determined from a set of strokes on the touch sensitive surface is revised based on a subsequently entered stroke on the touch sensitive surface. In some examples, a determination is made whether to include a stroke in a set of strokes based a time between the stroke and the previous stroke. In some examples, determining text based on a set of stroke is interrupted to determined revised text based on the set of strokes and a second stroke.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for contextual text lookup for images. When a request is received by an electronic device to perform a lookup or search for text in an image that is displayed at the electronic device, the electronic device may obtain one or more search results, based on the text itself and based on contextual information derived, by the electronic device, from the image. In one or more implementations, application information associated with an application that displays the image may also be used as contextual metadata for enhancing the results of the search for the text from the image.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media related to a technique for providing handwriting input functionality on a user device. A handwriting recognition module is trained to have a repertoire comprising multiple non-overlapping scripts and capable of recognizing tens of thousands of characters using a single handwriting recognition model. The handwriting input module provides real-time, stroke-order and stroke-direction independent handwriting recognition for multi-character handwriting input. In particular, real-time, stroke-order and stroke-direction independent handwriting recognition is provided for multi-character, or sentence level Chinese handwriting recognition. User interfaces for providing the handwriting input functionality are also disclosed.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for receiving a new input stroke. The subject technology determines whether the new input stroke is associated with an existing line group based on a writing direction estimate of the existing line group. The subject technology merges the new input stroke with the existing line group in response to determining that the new input stroke is associated with the existing line group. The subject technology determines a local orientation of the existing line group including the new input stroke based on an estimate of a direction of writing and a scale of each stroke. The subject technology normalizes the existing line group including the new input stroke using the determined location orientation.
