Method for screening candidate items and device thereof, text input method and input method system

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for screening candidate items and a device thereof, a text input method and an input method system. The method for screen candidate items comprises steps of: capturing sliding tracks of users on a screen; identifying whether the sliding tracks are tune sliding tracks; recognizing tunes which correspond to the tune sliding tracks and buffering the tunes which are recognized in a buffer zone if the sliding tracks are the tune sliding tracks; screening the candidate items in sequence according to the tunes in the buffer zone and displaying the candidate items after screening in a display zone; emptying the buffer zone upon receiving the operation of users on the screen. According to this arrangement, the efficiency of selecting the candidate items and inputting of users can be improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] This application relates to the technical field of input methods, in particular to a method and device for screening candidate items, a text input method and an input method system. Background technique [0002] In a computer system, the default input language is English characters. Since there are only 26 letters in English, plus some control characters, a keyboard with about 100 keys is generally sufficient. [0003] The Chinese language has tens of thousands of characters. In order to enable the computer system to use the keyboard to input Chinese, an additional Chinese input method system is required. [0004] Since there are tens of thousands of Chinese characters, it is impossible for a computer keyboard to create a key for each Chinese character. Therefore, the Chinese input method uses the keys on the keyboard to encode each Chinese character according to a certain method. For the user, an input sequence composed of several keys is used (specifically,...

[0007] The premise of the above method to filter candidates by strokes is that the user needs to accurately memorize the stroke order of each character and the auxiliary code of each stroke. Under the collection, no matter how much time is spent, the desired candidate cannot be found. In this case, it is necessary to repeatedly try to enter the correct auxiliary code to select, which will even increase the time for the user to select the candidate and affect the user's experience. input efficiency

Moreover, the above method is only applicable to the screening of single-word candidates. If you want to filter multi-word candidates, you need to filter single words one by one, which affects the user's input efficiency.
