Description

A kind of dummy keyboard design proposal with brain wave input Chinese character
Technical field
This programme relates to a kind of brand-new man-machine interaction mode; Adopt the brain-computer interface technology to realize combining the Two bors d's oeuveres input method to carry out the typing (need not hand kbhit or speech recognition) of Chinese character, a kind of and extraneous method that exchanges can be provided for the personage of the serious motion function forfeiture of paralysed patient and other with brain wave.
Background technology
What realize that the character input adopted with the brain wave control computer is a kind of human-computer interaction technology that is called brain-computer interface; This technology is through gathering the electric signal that produces in the human thinking activity; Then these signals are analyzed; Determine people's intention, and be converted into order and come smart machines such as control computer.Brain-computer interface can be divided into by the producing method of signal and bringing out and two types of spontaneous brain electricities.The mode of bringing out of evoked brain potential BCI has multiple modes such as vision, the sense of hearing, body sense.Wherein vision induced pattern has the branch of mode of operations such as stable state, transient state and event related potential again, is particularly suitable for the constructing virtual keyboard as information typing interface.
At present, existing multiple application system is come out, and mainly be divided into two big types and use: the first is directly controlled smart machines such as wheelchair, household electrical appliance with brain wave, and it two is the control that realizes computer cursor and keyboard.The invention belongs to second kind of application, be based on the brain-computer interface of vision induced event related potential (ERP), be used for realizing only just carrying out the input of computing machine Chinese and English without keyboard and mouse with brain wave.
In character typing field; The most representative is people such as U.S. Farwell and Donchin proposed, utilize one 36 key of P300 composition structure in the brain wave in 1988 dummy keyboard; Realized the typing [Electroencephalogr.Clin.Neurophysiol. of 26 English alphabets and 10 function keys; 70:510-523,1988].In addition, also have some to adopt the character transcription system of stable state vision inducting current potential brain-computer interface.
Mostly current brain-computer interface with character input function is the improvement of people's schemes such as U.S. Farwell and Donchin mostly to the English alphabet design.Aspect the typing of Chinese, Zhejiang University has reported a brain-computer interface system [electronic letters, vol, 37 (8): 1733-1738,2009] based on the stroke input, and other Chinese character input system does not appear in the newspapers.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is a kind of brand-new Chinese character input method; Through on computer screen, making up a virtual double-spelling input keyboard (being visual stimulator); Certain button on the visual on-screen virtual keyboard of user; Just can stimulate human brain to produce specific EEG signals, corresponding EEG signal differentiated the purpose that just can reach the input of simulation Chinese character Two bors d's oeuveres.It is a kind of brain-computer interface technology based on " simulation is read event-related brain potential and brought out pattern ".
The technical scheme that the present invention adopted is: dummy keyboard of being made up of the individual button of 42 (6 row *, 7 row) of structure on computer screen; Each key grain of this keyboard is neglected window by key name and one and is formed; It is the little form of a 30*30 pixel that the first half mark of each key grain has the character of representing this key name to claim, Lower Half.The 1st row all is made up of two parts to the key name of the 4th line unit grain, and first half character is an initial consonant, and the Lower Half character is a simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable.Key name " 1 ", " 2 ", " 3 ", " 4 ", " 5 ", " ← ", " → " of the 5th row, (the supporting use " search dog/QQ spelling input method " this dummy keyboard in use, of the position of the first five digitized representation Chinese character candidate; Certainly; Other any double-spelling Chinese character input method all can, here, every page of candidate word number of input method is made as 5 Chinese characters); Key name " ← ", " → " represent candidate word page turning (preceding turning over, then turn over).The major function of the 6th row is the selection that realizes the 1st~5 row, and key name " (1) ", " (2) ", " (3) ", " (4) ", " (5) " represent the 1st row of dummy keyboard to the 5th row respectively, and carriage return, deletion action are represented in key name " carriage return ", " deletion ".In the process that the user uses; The selection of each Two bors d's oeuveres symbol needed for two steps can accomplish, and the first step is that the 6th certain button of row is selected, and chooses the row at this Two bors d's oeuveres symbol place; Second step was selected the aiming symbol in the selected line, so went round and began again.Based on such principle, though on the interface of our structure 42 constraint terms are arranged, in practical operation, in some moment, we only use from 7 constraint terms of certain delegation and select one.
The beneficial effect of this programme is, this two phases (Two Phase) input method of employing has reduced the constraint term number of each selection, has improved the accuracy rate of brain power mode identification.Compared to all-phonetic input method, needed selection number of times when having reduced each Chinese character typing, this can only do for per minute, and character several times selects, the brain-computer interface that speed is also very slow, input speed is multiplied, and wrong probability has just reduced.In addition, the double-spelling Chinese character input method of keyboard is knocked in traditional passing through and since when typewriting eyes need watch screen attentively, and common keyboard do not mark simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, needs the position of memory initial consonant and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, dummy keyboard of the present invention has then been exempted such worry.
