RecognitionAlternate.Confidence Property

Gets the level of confidence that a recognizer has in the recognition of a RecognitionAlternate object.

Definition

Visual Basic .NET Public ReadOnly Property Confidence As RecognitionConfidence
C# public RecognitionConfidence Confidence { get; }
Managed C++ public: __property RecognitionConfidence* get_Confidence();

Property Value

Microsoft.Ink.RecognitionConfidence. The level of confidence that a recognizer has in the recognition of a RecognitionAlternate object or of a gesture.

This property is read-only. This property has no default value.

Strong0 Indicates strong confidence in the result or alternate.
Intermediate1 Indicates intermediate confidence in the result or alternate.
Poor2 Indicates poor confidence in the result or alternate.

Exceptions

COMException Leave Site:

Remarks

If the alternate represents a phrase or sentence, the value represents the lowest confidence level of a recognition segment found in the phrase or sentence. However, if the alternate represents a word, the value represents the confidence level of the word.

Note: This property throws an exception if the Recognizer that generates the RecognitionAlternate does not support confidence levels.

Of the Microsoft® recognizers, only the Microsoft English (US) Handwriting Recognizer and the Microsoft Gesture Recognizer support confidence levels. Third party recognizers may or may not support confidence levels.

Examples

[C#]

This C# example defines event handlers for a form, ConfidenceAlternatesForm, to which a Button Leave Site control, theButton, has been added. The sample also defines an InkCollector, theInkCollector, a RecognizerContext, theRecognizerContext, and a RecognitionResult, theRecognitionResult, which are used to collect ink and to perform recognition.

The event handler for the form's load event creates an ink collector and gets a recognizer context for the English (US) language.

The event handler for the button's click event performs recognition on the strokes in the ink collector, divides the strokes along confidence boundaries, and colors the strokes according to their confidence level.

// Declare ink elements and create drawing attributes.
Microsoft.Ink.InkCollector theInkCollector = null;
Microsoft.Ink.RecognizerContext theRecognizerContext = null;
Microsoft.Ink.RecognitionResult theRecognitionResult = null;

    this.theInkCollector.Enabled = true;

    // Get a recognizer context for the English (US) recognizer.
    foreach (Recognizer theRecognizer in new Recognizers())
    {
        foreach (short lcid in theRecognizer.Languages)
        {
            // 0409 is the LCID for the en-us language.
            if (0x0409 == lcid)
            {
                this.theRecognizerContext = theRecognizer.CreateRecognizerContext();
