Selection biasing
Abstract:
In some implementations, data indicating a touch received on a proximity-sensitive display is received while the proximity-sensitive display is presenting one or more items. In one aspect, the techniques describe may involve a process for disambiguating touch selections of hypothesized items, such as text or graphical objects that have been generated based on input data, on a proximity-sensitive display. This process may allow a user to more easily select hypothesized items that the user may wish to correct, by determining whether a touch received through the proximity-sensitive display represents a selection of each hypothesized item based at least on a level of confidence that the hypothesized item accurately represents the input data.
