Background technology
People use keyboard to the computing machine input text usually.Computer keyboard generally is based on the letter word table and designs.Keyboard originates from typewriter, and these typewriters are using the Indo-European family of languages language and using the country of the Latin alphabet very universal.Because each word (being word) that these keyboards are used in the character in the language of input all is made up of the letter in the alphabet, so these keyboards all have a kind of identical structure.Therefore, owing to alphabet is fixed, and number of letters is less relatively, so the input of the keyboard of available routine is from any word in the fixing alphabetic(al) language.
Yet, also exist some not rely on the language that phonetic characters produces word, their text is formed by ideographic character.Such language is present in the Asia, comprises the Chinese character in Chinese, Korean and the Japanese.Because Chinese total number is very big, can not directly set up corresponding relation with the keyboard of routine, be difficult to use standard computer keyboard directly to import Chinese character.In order to overcome and the relevant intrinsic problem of Chinese character input, people have designed multiple input method of Chinese character.
These input method of Chinese character roughly can be classified as five class input methods: font code type Chinese character input method, phonetic type Chinese character input method, stroke type Chinese character input method, coding type Chinese character input method, phonetic-stroke code type Chinese character input method.
The font code type Chinese character input method is decomposed into the radical collection to Chinese character, and numerous radicals is fixed on the keyboard.Though the font code type Chinese character input method repetition rate of coding is low, the input efficiency height, the user must remember a large amount of radicals, finds it difficult to learn and easily forgets.For the typing person of specialty, use the font code type Chinese character input method, can obtain very high writing efficiency.But for beginner and common computing machine user, this class input method makes us forbidding, is difficult to left-hand seat, needs a large amount of arduous exercises.
The phonetic type Chinese character input method is based on pronunciation, and typewriting person changes into a string Latin character with each character phonetic, keys in then.This input method is fixed on numerous phonetic alphabet on the keyboard, uses simply, and the beginner is easy to left-hand seat.But it requires the Chinese character pronunciation (for example mandarin) of user's GPRS standard, and this makes vast dialect user be difficult to grasp this class input method.Owing to phonetically similar word in Chinese produces a large amount of repeated codes too much, in order to remedy this problem, after having imported a Latin alphabet string, typewriting person selects from the possible character lists of listing usually in addition.Can solve the input problem of the different word of unisonance although it is so, but it has interrupted continuously the keyboard typing process and typing speed is slowed down, so this class input method writing efficiency is not high.Also there is a problem in the phonetic type Chinese character input method, promptly uses the letter of other language can not fully suitably represent to distinguish the phoneme of this language.These phonemes produce some difficult points to the input based on transliteration.The user also will recognize, exist between the writing and import based on the input method of transliteration of Chinese character and be discord, and this being discord can cause character graphics and the keyboard information obstacle between keying in.Because the simplicity of implementing, this character entry method is the most universal input method in the various character entry methods, yet this input method shows number of drawbacks, and make those pronunciations do not meet the people of the used standard of this input method can't be on top of it.
The stroke type Chinese character input method is imported Chinese character with the limited stroke set of Chinese character merely, and on the contrary easily unforgettable, need not remember radical, also do not require the grasp Chinese phonetic alphabet.But the Chinese character stroke of importing Multi strokes is too many, as: the radicals by which characters are arranged in traditional Chinese dictionaries " tenth of the twelve Earthly Branches " that import " liquor-saturated " word will keystroke 7 times.This input method is a kind of simulation of actual written character.Yet, because the order of strokes observed in calligraphy between stroke relation is complicated, though and some Chinese character user understanding, not necessarily can write, this makes the user be difficult to become skilled when carrying out input text.Because the complex relationship between the employed stroke of character is difficult to stroke reasonably is mapped on the keyboard usually, thereby realize quick and text input easily.Because above-mentioned defective, this input method is considered to the poor efficiency input method usually.
The 4th class methods coding type Chinese character input method is based on distributes to different characters with specific coding.This method is to comprise telegraph code is distributed to character, or based on the shape of the every nook and cranny of character and encode.This method is extremely complicated, except that also not being used very little field.
The phonetic-stroke code type Chinese character input method combines the characteristics of stroke sign indicating number type Chinese character input method and phonetic Chinese character input method, require the user not only will remember a large amount of radicals, and the GPRS Chinese phonetic alphabet, so can not overcome the shortcoming of font code type Chinese character input method and phonetic type Chinese character input method fully.
The efficient of assessment character entry method can be based on following three standards: easily learn; Convenient; And service efficiency.Recommend input method to new typewriting person, wish that this method is the method for the easiest, and concerning experienced typewriting person, the high efficiency of text input is then more important.For non-professional user, the convenience of character input is very important, so even those do not allow wield input method of Chinese character efficiently often to be rejected use yet.Existing input method of Chinese character does not satisfy one or more in these standards, so people's a kind of input method of Chinese character efficiently of active demand still.
It should be noted that and on mobile phone, PDA handheld devices such as (personal digital assistants), import the especially problem of a difficulty of Chinese character.What this class handheld device was often used is numeric keypad (seeing Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 3), because the bond number of common numeric keypad is less than the qwerty keyboard of standard far away, so be difficult to font code type Chinese character input method or the used radical collection of phonetic type Chinese character input method or phonetic alphabet collection are mapped directly on the numeric keypad.Conventional way is by repeatedly coming corresponding letter by next number keyboard continuously, and then should the corresponding radical collection of letter or an element concentrating of phonetic alphabet.For example: import " liquor-saturated " word, font code type Chinese character input method that it is corresponding and the coding in the phonetic type Chinese character input method are respectively " SGY " and " ZUI ", and then be mapped on the numeric keypad, then be respectively " 7777-4-999 " and " 9999-88-444 ", at least be respectively 8 keystrokes and 9 keystrokes, and the phonetic type Chinese character input method considers the keystroke number of word selection, then also not only 9 times.And the stroke set in the stroke type Chinese character input method can only comprise " the Chinese-character order of strokes standard " that meet GB 13000.1 character set defined five basic strokes: " one ", and---------left-falling stroke, " Dian "---right-falling stroke, " second "---folding is so can set up directly mapping with numeric keypad easily for perpendicular, " Pie " for horizontal, " Shu ".Therefore, though the stroke type Chinese character input method is not popularized because efficient is low, original advantage is arranged on the numeric keypad of handheld devices such as mobile phone, PDA in QWERTY keyboard.
Therefore, be necessary to design a kind of new method of using keyboard especially to use digital keyboard input character, to provide simply and Chinese character input method efficiently.
Embodiment
For the purpose of discussing below, the ideograph writing system that is used for Chinese character is used as the basis of new keyboard Designing.Those skilled in the art will envision that in current design be used between the embodiment of different Chinese character collection multiple variation being arranged, but principal advantages of the present invention can be applied in other ideograph language.
Opposite with Indo-European linear feature, Chinese character is that typical two-dimentional stroke distributes.Each character is all distributed by unique stroke and constitutes, so that different stroke or with certain form overlap joint, and perhaps level or vertical off setting each other, perhaps certain other positions each other each other.A key character of Chinese character is can be divided into single character and combinde rqdical character from Hanzi structure.For example " field " is single character, and " liquor-saturated " is combinde rqdical character.In the Chinese character, except a hundreds of single character, also has the thousands of combinde rqdical character that combines by different position relations by a hundreds of parts now.The font code type Chinese character input method utilizes this hundreds of single character and this hundreds of parts to construct radical, though this input method can reduce bond number, because radical and do not meet people's writing style, and quantity is huge, lack memory regulation, so cause the difficulty of this input method study.The elementary cell that constitutes Chinese character in addition is stroke (form of a stroke or a combination of strokes).Meet most people's writing style based on the stroke type Chinese character input method of stroke, but because single Chinese character often contains more stroke, so cause the input bond number too many.And people sometimes write the order of strokes observed in calligraphy (order of strokes) custom of certain Chinese character might not conformance with standard, this will cause this input method can not correctly discern the Chinese character that the user will import.
Principle of the present invention is that keyboard is divided into two districts, makes all corresponding same encode Chinese characters for computer set in these two districts, by subregion, makes when importing individual character, and different districts is to should the different parts of word; When input during phrase, different districts is to should the different word of phrase.Promptly, if import single Chinese character, the Chinese character single-character splitting is become at least one parts, then when in same district continuously during keystroke, then think to import continuously the coding in the same parts of this Chinese character individual character, when jumping to another district during keystroke, then think to import first coding of the following parts of Chinese character individual character; If input Chinese character phrase,, when jumping to another and distinguish keystroke, then think to import first coding of the next Chinese character of Chinese character phrase then when in same district, continuously during keystroke, then thinking to import continuously the pairing coding of same Chinese character.
Preferably, the present invention is in conjunction with the component feature and the stroke feature of Chinese character, the input of employing stroke, utilize the module feature of Chinese character, each Chinese character is divided at least one parts, when input word, the user can skip the input of some stroke and directly carry out the stroke input of following parts according to the characteristics for the treatment of input word, to reach quick input Chinese character; In input during phrase, then skip the input of some stroke and directly carry out the stroke input of next word, to reach quick input phrase.
Particularly, the realization principle that the present invention imports Chinese character is: with the keyboard separated into two parts, be called A district and B district, same stroke set is all shone upon in these two districts, and wherein each key in each district is corresponding to a stroke in this stroke set; When in same district, during with order of strokes observed in calligraphy order keystroke, then determining a plurality of strokes of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order in the corresponding Chinese character of the key that is impacted; When alternately in two districts during keystroke, if at first at A district keystroke, determine that then the user will import a word, the stroke of the order of strokes observed in calligraphy order in the corresponding Chinese character individual character that will import of the key that impacted in same district in the same parts jumps to the first stroke in the order of strokes observed in calligraphy following parts in proper order in the then corresponding Chinese character individual character that will import of key in another district; If at first at B district keystroke, determine that then the user will import a Chinese character phrase, the stroke of the order of strokes observed in calligraphy order in the corresponding phrase will importing of the key that impacted in same district in the same word or according to the first stroke of at least one parts of the parts order of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order, the key that jumps to another district be the first stroke in the next word in the phrase will importing of correspondence then.
It should be noted that Chinese character phrase here is not equal to " speech " or " phrase " on the linguistic meaning, in the present invention, " Chinese character phrase " is meant the set of the Chinese character individual character that comprises at least two Chinese character individual characters.Generally speaking, have the meaning contact on the linguistics in Chinese character phrase at least between included two Chinese character individual characters, in input method of Chinese character, generally can be used for carrying out frequency analysis, but it should be noted that the present invention is not limited thereto.
When the coded font of setting up according to subregion stroke Chinese character input method of the present invention is imported key string according to the corresponding Chinese character individual character of this input method or Chinese character phrase as the user, if corresponding Chinese character individual character or Chinese character phrase do not have repeated code, then directly export this Chinese character or Chinese character phrase, if repeated code is arranged, then output is selected word table or is selected vocabulary to select for the user.Its first stroke at least of only requiring that the user imports each Chinese character at least one pen of at least one parts in the Chinese character individual character or the Chinese character phrase can carry out the word selection operation or select the speech operation, by increasing the stroke quantity of input, can reduce repeated code, by reducing the stroke quantity of input, can improve input speed.
According to subregion stroke Chinese character input method of the present invention, when input Chinese character individual character, can be in same district keystroke continuously, with stroke to order of strokes observed in calligraphy order that should the Chinese character individual character; Also keystroke in two districts alternately is with to the first stroke according at least one parts of the parts order of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order that should the Chinese character individual character.
In addition, according to subregion stroke Chinese character input method of the present invention, in the time will importing the Chinese character individual character, then at first impact the key in A district, if continuous keystroke in the same district, then to the stroke of the order of strokes observed in calligraphy order in should word, if keystroke in two districts alternately, then to first stroke that should word according at least one parts of the parts order of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order; In the time will importing a Chinese character phrase, then at first impact the key in B district, the stroke of the order of strokes observed in calligraphy order in the corresponding phrase will importing of the key that impacted in same district in the same word or according to the first stroke of at least one parts of the parts order of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order, the key that jumps to another district be the first stroke in the next word in the phrase will importing of correspondence then.
Preferably, according to one embodiment of present invention, the Chinese character phrase is defined as two words, can determines that the B district is used to import first word, the input of A district is used to import second word.When the Chinese character phrase is defined as two words, alternatively, the function that can have allonge, promptly, in the B district with after a plurality of strokes of A district input, when returning B district operation push-button, then be interpreted as the additional input of the stroke stroke that first word is not totally lost when sequentially, if unceasingly alternately at A, B district operation push-button, be interpreted as that then the stroke that first word and second word are not totally lost replenishes the input stroke.
Alternatively, according to another embodiment of the invention, the Chinese character phrase comprises at least two words, can determine that the B district is used to import the odd number word, and the input of A district is used to import the even number word.
Clearly, above-mentioned A district and B district can exchange, and they can corresponding various keyboard plans.Keyboard plan of the present invention is not limited to different keys is given different districts, also can same key be given different districts by the mode of predetermined function key, for example " # " key or " Caps Lock " key or " Shift " key gauge are decided to be function key, when not according to or when pressing even number time " # " key, " 1 " key belongs to the A district, when pressing odd number time " # " key, " 1 " key belongs to the B district.Again for example, for example " # " key gauge is decided to be first function key, " * " key gauge is decided to be second function key, when pressing " # " key, " 1 " key belongs to the A district, and when pressing " * " key, " 1 " key belongs to the B district.
In addition, clearly, the order of strokes observed in calligraphy of the present invention is not limited to adopt " Chinese-character order of strokes standard " defined order of strokes observed in calligraphy order of GB 13000.1 character set in proper order, also allows some order of strokes observed in calligraphy orders that adopt people often to adopt.Although the mode of written character is comprised the influence of various factors of conventional book writing tools and writing/print system to a great extent, the general rule that character is write can be summarized as " from left to right ", " from top to bottom ", " from outside to inside " and " both sides from the centre to the symmetry (left side and right) ".These general rules both had been applied to have only the character of several parts strokes, also were applied to the character that those have labyrinth.The present invention uses these rules to indicate the order of stroke input, thereby to carry out the stroke input according to the mode of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order.
In addition, clearly, it is that direct single character and combinde rqdical character rule according to Hanzi structure splits with the rule that Chinese character splits parts that the present invention can adopt the various schemes that Chinese character split parts, and do not require and recite these parts, the user only need know that the first stroke of a Chinese character of at least one parts gets final product, rather than is similar to font code class input method and like that Chinese character is split into tens up to a hundred radicals need reciting.For example sphere of movements for the elephants is just regarded parts as, and " tenth of the twelve Earthly Branches " and " finally " two parts regarded as in " liquor-saturated " word, and the first stroke of these two parts is respectively " one " and " Dian ".Again for example, " basket " word can regard as "
", "
", "
" and " ware " totally 4 parts, also can regard as "
", "
" and " ware " totally 3 parts, also as can be seen "
![Figure C20051013016400186](https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/c5/fd/5e/d72973eae82898/C20051013016400186.png)
" and " prison " totally 2 parts; perhaps simply regard " basket " parts as; its corresponding stroke string is respectively " phnphn/ss/phn/szssh ", " phnphn/ssphn/szssh ", " phnphn/ssphnszssh " and " phnphnssphnszssh ", and wherein "/" represents split position.Again for example, " state " word can comprise by corresponding stroke string: " szhhshnh " and " sz/hhshn/h ".Give an example as can be seen from above, in the present invention, so-called division parts, be exactly after according to the predetermined order of strokes observed in calligraphy order Chinese character individual character being generated the stroke string of a correspondence in fact, the process that this stroke string is cut apart the understanding of Hanzi structure according to the user, this is cut apart and can divide very carefully according to user's requirement, also can get more rough., dividing parts in any case herein, is what can not change according to the stroke string of order of strokes observed in calligraphy order.In a word, adopt the scheme of above-mentioned fractionation parts, this input method does not need special study of user and training, only needs the user to grasp the normal Chinese characters Writing method and gets final product, even do not require the user to know all strokes of this word fully, as long as and know the first stroke of a Chinese character of part parts.Yet subregion stroke Chinese character input method according to the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned parts and splits scheme, alternatively, can formulate other parts fractionation mode according to Hanzi structure, and the Hanzi component that for example is similar to the stroke shape Chinese code type Chinese character input method splits mode.
Above-mentioned principle is analyzed, can be found that its implementation procedure is, the Chinese character individual character is generated the stroke string according to order of strokes observed in calligraphy order and stroke set; According to Hanzi structure the Chinese character individual character is divided at least one parts, the stroke string is divided at least one part according at least one parts of dividing; Keyboard is divided into a plurality of districts, comprises first district and second district, same stroke set is all shone upon in first district and second district, wherein a stroke in the corresponding stroke set of each key in each district; And the stroke that makes same part in the sequentially corresponding stroke string of the key that in same district, impacts, jump to the first stroke in the following part in the then corresponding stroke string of first key in another district.For example, " basket " word pairing " phnphn/ssphn/szssh ", can be by the several leading pen in the input " phnphn " in first district, jump to second district then and import several leading pen in " ssphn ", and then jump to the several leading pen of importing in " szssh " in first district and realize, also can be by the several leading pen or all of input in first district in " hspphn ", " ssphn " that skips second portion then directly imports in " szssh " several leading or whole stroke and realizes to second district.Yet user's operation not only is confined to above two kinds of operations, obviously utilizes jumping of the present invention district input principle, for example imports remaining strokes in " phnphn " etc. behind the several leading pen in second district input " szssh " again back to first district." basketball " then passes through at first at second district's keystroke, and allowing input method judge is the phrase that will import two words; Then, finish input by importing " basket " corresponding stroke string in second district continuously and importing " ball " corresponding stroke string continuously in first district.
For example according to the subregion stroke Chinese character input method of an exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the stroke set that adopts comprises five basic strokes,---------left-falling stroke, " Dian "---press down and " second "---and roll over, abbreviate " h ", " s ", " p ", " n " and " z " for convenience of description respectively as and " Chinese-character order of strokes standard " defined five basic strokes " " that meet GB 13000.1 character set fully for perpendicular, " Pie " for horizontal, " Shu ".Complementary definition is as follows: A district input stroke then this stroke is regarded the lowercase of abbreviation as, and promptly five strokes are respectively " h ", " s ", " p ", " n " and " z "; B district input stroke then this stroke is regarded the capitalization of abbreviation as, and promptly five strokes are respectively " H ", " S ", " P ", " N " and " Z ".
For example according to the subregion stroke Chinese character input method of an exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the stroke set that adopts comprises nine basic strokes, and it is respectively " one "---horizontal, " Shu "---and perpendicular, " Pie "---left-falling stroke, " "---the perpendicular folding of right-falling stroke " Dian "---point, " ㄑ "---, "
![Figure C20051013016400201](https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/84/b2/f0/52ab62e181f638/C20051013016400201.png)
"---the perpendicular folding folding hook of cross break, " "---cross break folding hook and " ㄅ "---abbreviates " h ", " s ", " p ", " n ", " d ", " u ", " v ", " w " and " x " for convenience of description respectively as.Complementary definition is as follows: A district input stroke then this stroke is regarded the lowercase of abbreviation as, and promptly nine strokes are respectively " h ", " s ", " p ", " n ", " d ", " u ", " v ", " w " and " x "; B district input stroke then this stroke is regarded the capitalization of abbreviation as, and promptly nine strokes are respectively " H ", " S ", " P ", " N ", " D ", " U ", " V ", " W " and " X ".
Clearly, stroke set of the present invention is not limited to five above-mentioned stroke scheme stroke sets, nine stroke scheme stroke sets, can also adopt other stroke set.
According to one embodiment of present invention, the process of the input Chinese character individual character among the present invention may further comprise the steps: the user begins input from the stroke in A district, the first stroke is an initial stroke of waiting to import Chinese character, subsequent stroke can continue to import in the A district according to " the Chinese-character order of strokes standard " of the GB 13000.1 character set defined order of strokes observed in calligraphy, till occurring waiting to import Chinese character (this is traditional stroke input method), the present invention is to transforming since second, the user can continue to import in the A district, with the traditional method of compatibility, also ensure the best input operation of some this kind of Chinese character methods, and characteristics of the present invention are that the user can be divided into Chinese character at least one parts, each parts that split is a relatively independent integral body, after the user has imported at least one stroke according to order of strokes observed in calligraphy order of these parts continuously in the A district, if the input to the residue stroke of these parts is omitted in user expectation, then jump to the first stroke that the B district begins these parts and import according to the parts below the order of strokes observed in calligraphy order from the A district.For example: 4 parts can be regarded it as in " basket " word, also can regard other fractionation modes as, and this example splits into 4 parts for the basis with this word, sets forth the present invention.According to " Chinese-character order of strokes standard " defined stroke and order of strokes observed in calligraphy of GB 13000.1 character set, the stroke string of " basket " word correspondence is " phnphnssphnszssh ", and the present invention is divided into 4 parts, "
![Figure C20051013016400211](https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/29/dc/c2/0082c5eafc4d9d/C20051013016400211.png)

" and " ware "; i.e. " phnphn/ss/phn/szssh "; wherein "/" represents split position; can jump the district and handle; import this Chinese character so and just can multiple choices realize; but different input operation repeated codes is discrepant, so the user can grope the best input operation of each Chinese character according to this primitive rule, but can find the stroke string better substantially than existing method, also can obtain the optimum input scheme of each word by computer operation, determine the best input scheme of each word as the user fast.Adopt the present invention, for example, the stroke string of " basket " word correspondence just comprises at least tens kinds, and for example phnphnssphnszssh, phnphnSSPHNSZSSH, phnphnS, pSpS, phSSp, pPHsz etc., user can adopt and anyly can find this word.Take the method for this redundancy both to make things convenient for the user under the situation of being unfamiliar with some Chinese character part order of strokes observed in calligraphy, also can jump the Chinese character input method in district, can be implemented in again provides more Chinese character input information to search corresponding Chinese character under the same keystroke number, more effectively utilize the bond number of numeric keypad, to realize a kind of new Chinese character input method.
The process of the input Chinese character phrase among the present invention may further comprise the steps: the user begins to import the stroke of first word of phrase from the B district, and behind the first stroke of first word of phrase of being totally lost, the user can begin to import the stroke of second word of phrase in the A district.A, B import in two districts second the Chinese character individual character of phrase and the stroke of first Chinese character individual character respectively.If phrase surpasses two Chinese characters, import adopt association function behind preceding two Chinese characters or continue in the A district, the B district alternately keystroke reach the remaining Chinese character of quick input phrase.For example, the stroke string of " basketball " phrase correspondence just for example comprises at least: PHNhhsh, PHNhhs, PHNPhhshh etc., user can adopt and anyly can find this phrase.
Though top described all be the situation of stroke input Chinese character, but clearly, the present invention is not limited to stroke input method, and the present invention also can be applied to the corresponding same code set of keyboard subregion the situation of font code type Chinese character input method and phonetic type Chinese character input method with the principle that realizes the input of jumping district.For example above-mentioned Hanzi component is interpreted as the radical in the Chinese character shape code type Chinese character input method, or initial consonant portion in the phonetic type Chinese character input method and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable portion, promptly can realize the present invention at an easy rate.

Clearly, stroke set of the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned keyboard plan, as long as the corresponding enough suitably stroke set that is adopted of key potential energy can carry out subregion to various keyboards, and various partition schemes can be arranged.
In addition, clearly, keyboard partition scheme of the present invention is not limited to different keys is given different districts, also can same key be given different districts by the mode of predetermined function key, for example regulation " # " key be function key when not according to or during by inferior " # " key of even number, " 1 " key belongs to the A district, and when pressing odd number time " # " key, " 1 " key belongs to the B district.
Adopt the present invention, the first stroke of the input mode of individual character by at least one parts of input composition individual character can be to should the Chinese character individual character, so can import apace, input speed is greatly improved.
Adopt the present invention, at least the first stroke stroke of the input mode of phrase by each word of input composition phrase can be to should phrase, so can import apace, input speed is greatly improved.
Adopt the present invention, the input mode of individual character not only is improved in the speed of input individual character, and is not fully clearly also can realize the Chinese character input under the situation for some word order of strokes observed in calligraphy or stroke.
Adopt the present invention, the user can be incremental gropes best input mode, has very big interest in this process, is easy to learn and use, and has broken away from the drawback that a lot of input methods find it difficult to learn.
By following explanation to specific embodiments of the invention, and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it is obvious that other aspects of the present invention and feature will become concerning those skilled in the art person.
Those skilled in the art can expect that the present invention can be applied as the keyboard with algorithm logic, to handle the stroke key and to cushion them, use non-stroke key indication to arrive EOC up to the user.Perhaps, the present invention can use the criterion calculation platform to implement, from the keyboard receiving inputted signal, and the stroke that each signal indication is relevant with key.Stroke interpreter buffering stroke, and can dwindle the selection that is stored in the character in the database that contains each stroke.The user only needs the part of thump character like this, selects character then from candidate list, or uses the text input (that is so-called predictive input mode) of predictability with interpreter.In the embodiment of another conflict-solving module, provide and the demonstration of importing more than the stroke of a known character coupling to the user.Preferably on computer screen, provide alternative character lists, and allow the user from candidate list, to select the character of wanting to the user.
It should be noted that the core concept that the present invention imports Chinese character is with the keyboard subregion, utilize the alternate key stroke in the different subregions behind the subregion to come the redirect of word in the redirect of parts in the corresponding Chinese character individual character or the corresponding Chinese character phrase.Those skilled in the art can expect that two subregions among the present invention can exchange.In addition, those skilled in the art can expect that subregion stroke Chinese character input method according to the present invention can adopt the stroke set of different schemes, for example five stroke scheme stroke sets, nine stroke scheme stroke sets etc.In addition, those skilled in the art can expect that subregion stroke Chinese character input method according to the present invention is not in exceeding spiritual scope of the present invention, as long as the corresponding enough suitably stroke set that is adopted of key potential energy, can carry out subregion to various keyboards, and various partition schemes can be arranged.In addition, those skilled in the art can expect, keyboard subregion according to subregion stroke Chinese character input method of the present invention, except different keys being given different districts, also can same key be given different districts by the mode of predetermined function key, for example regulation " # " key be function key when not according to or during by inferior " # " key of even number, " 1 " key belongs to the A district, when pressing odd number time " # " key, " 1 " key belongs to the B district; Again for example, for example " # " key gauge is decided to be first function key, " * " key gauge is decided to be second function key, when pressing " # " key, " 1 " key belongs to the A district, and when pressing " * " key, " 1 " key belongs to the B district.In addition, those skilled in the art can expect, according to subregion stroke Chinese character input method of the present invention, except " the Chinese-character order of strokes standard " that adopt GB 13000.1 character set defined order of strokes observed in calligraphy order, also allow some order of strokes observed in calligraphy orders that adopt people to use always.In addition, those skilled in the art can expect, according to subregion stroke Chinese character input method of the present invention, so-called division parts, be exactly after according to the predetermined order of strokes observed in calligraphy order Chinese character individual character being generated the stroke string of a correspondence in fact, to the process that this stroke string is cut apart the understanding of Hanzi structure according to the user, this is cut apart and can divide very carefully according to user's requirement, also can get more rough.
It should be noted that, Chinese character among the present invention is not limited to the simplified Hanzi in the Chinese, also comprise the Chinese character in the language such as unsimplified Hanzi, Japanese and Korean in the Chinese, should be appreciated that, also can be applicable to the ideograph that other have the stroke structure according to input method of the present invention.
It should be noted that, though top described all be the situation of stroke input Chinese character, but those skilled in the art can expect that the present invention also can be applied to the corresponding same code set of keyboard subregion the situation of font code type Chinese character input method and phonetic type Chinese character input method with the principle that realizes the input of jumping district.For example above-mentioned Hanzi component is interpreted as the radical in the Chinese character shape code type Chinese character input method, or initial consonant portion in the phonetic type Chinese character input method and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable portion, promptly can realize the present invention at an easy rate.
The above is the preferred embodiments of the present invention only, is not limited to the present invention, and for a person skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and variation.Within the spirit and principles in the present invention all, any modification of being done, be equal to replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
