METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR IDEOGRAM CHARACTER ANALYSIS

Abstract:

Ideogram character analysis includes partitioning an original ideogram character into strokes and mapping each stroke to a corresponding stroke identifier (id) to create an original stroke id sequence that includes stroke identifiers. A candidate ideogram character that has a candidate stroke id sequence within a threshold distance to the original stroke id sequence is selected. One or more embodiments may create a new phrase by replacing the original ideogram character with the candidate ideogram character in a search phrase. One or more embodiments perform a search using the search phrase and the new phrase to obtain a result and present the result. One or more embodiments may replace an original ideogram character in a character recognized document with the candidate ideogram character and store the character recognized document.
