A good first step for your project would be to collect some test data: 
the keys pressed and the result you expect to get. If this is released 
as open data all the IMEs can test and develop against it. (see also 
xkcd 927)

You probably have higher expectations than me. I press space after every 
word, and am happy to press space a couple more times if it does not 
give me the particular suggestion I want.
(The attached screenshot is after "ame<space>" then space again to see 
the choices.)

It does learn my preferences: if I choose 飴 then that is the first 
suggestion the next time.

Are you wanting it to remember the previous context (e.g. 今日の天気は) so it 
could make a more educated guess of the best suggestion?
