Text Suggestion System with Credibility and Frequency Ranking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional word processing systems lack an efficient method to automatically complete sentences and provide factual accuracy, often requiring users to consult external sources or manually correct errors.
Innovation Solution
A system that receives a text item, determines matching suffixes through search queries, ranks them based on credibility and frequency scores, and provides the highest ranking suffix as a suggestion for completion, while also offering automatic fact-checking by highlighting potential inaccuracies.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If conventional spell check features are used, then basic error detection is provided, but automatic sentence completion and factual accuracy checking are not achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the text completion task into distinct components: spell checking, sentence completion suggestion, and factual accuracy verification. Each component is handled by separate modules that process specific aspects of the text, allowing the system to provide comprehensive automation without requiring a single monolithic complex system.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary suggestion mechanism that acts as a mediator between the user's partial input and the final completed text. This intermediary layer provides multiple ranked suggestions based on credibility and frequency scores, allowing users to select from pre-evaluated options rather than requiring the system to directly generate definitive completions.
2Reliability
If users consult external sources to verify facts, then factual accuracy can be improved, but writing efficiency and productivity decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary factual accuracy checking and credibility assessment of potential completions before the user finalizes the text. By pre-evaluating the reliability of source materials and ranking suggestions accordingly, the system ensures factual accuracy is verified in advance, eliminating the need for users to separately consult external sources during the writing process.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms that provide users with credibility scores and source information for each suggested completion. This feedback allows users to quickly assess the reliability of suggestions without leaving the writing environment, maintaining writing efficiency while ensuring factual accuracy through informed selection.
3Reliability
If multiple suffixes are provided for selection, then user choice and accuracy are improved, but the time to select the correct suffix increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameters used to evaluate and rank suffixes by calculating credibility scores based on source reliability and frequency scores based on occurrence patterns. By transforming raw data into ranked suggestions with quantitative metrics, the system presents multiple accurate options in a prioritized manner, allowing users to quickly identify the most reliable completion without examining all options equally.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides a limited number of top-ranked suffix suggestions rather than presenting all possible completions. By focusing on the most credible and frequent matches, the system offers sufficient choice for accuracy while minimizing the time required for selection, as users only need to evaluate a small subset of high-probability options.

AI summary
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for automatic text suggestion are described. One of the methods includes receiving a text item including one or more terms; determining a plurality of text strings, each text string including a matching portion and one or more suffixes, wherein the matching portion matches the text item, and the one or more suffixes are located after the matching portion; ranking the one or more suffixes based on a credibility score and a frequency score of each suffix, the credibility score indicating an estimated credibility of a source of the text string including the suffix, the frequency score indicating an estimated frequency of appearance of the suffix; and providing a group of the one or more suffixes that includes a highest ranking suffix for display as a suggestion for completing a sentence starting from the text item.
