Public Methods

public static RecognitionContext.Builder builder ()

Returns the final RecognitionContext object.

public abstract String getPreContext ()

Characters immediately before the position where the recognized text should be inserted.

Example: a text field contains "hello", with the cursor right after "o". The user handwrites something that looks like "world". If the pre-context is set to "hello", the recognition model will be able to output " world", with a leading space.

If the text field contain "hello" with the cursor between "e" and the first "l", then the pre-context must be set to "he".

A good rule of thumb for pre-context length is: as many characters as possible, including spaces, until around 20. The optimal number depends on the exact recognition model that is used. Getting the best speed/accuracy tradeoff may require a bit of tuning.

public abstract WritingArea getWritingArea ()

Size of the writing area.

This is used by some recognition models for disambiguation. Example: lowercase vs uppercase ("o" vs "O") .
