Embodiment

For above-mentioned purpose of the present invention, feature and advantage can be become apparent more, below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is further detailed explanation.

With reference to Fig. 1, show a kind of flow chart of steps that slides the embodiment of the method for input of the present invention, specifically can comprise the steps:

Step 101, catches a plurality of tracing points that slide on dummy keyboard;

It should be noted that, the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to have in the electronic equipment of touch-screen, this touch-screen can comprise vector pressure sensing technology touch-screen, resistive technologies touch-screen, capacitance technology touch-screen, infrared technology touch-screen, surface acoustic wave technique touch-screen etc., this electronic equipment can comprise mobile phone, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant, personal digital assistant), laptop computer, palm PC etc., the embodiment of the present invention is not limited this.

These mobile terminals can support to comprise the operating systems such as Windows, Android (Android), IOS, WindowsPhone, conventionally can move the application program of inputting by dummy keyboard, for example input method procedure.

Conventionally, described dummy keyboard can have one or more virtual keys, and this virtual key is often re-used, can be for inputting at least one in numeral, English, Chinese and symbol.

For example, with reference to Fig. 2 A and 2B, show the exemplary plot of a kind of dummy keyboard of the embodiment of the present invention, this dummy keyboard 200 can be called nine grids keyboard or 9 key boards, mainly can comprise 9 virtual keys.For virtual key 201, as shown in Figure 2 A, under Pinyin Input pattern, click this virtual key 201 and can input initial consonant " d ", simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable " e " and initial consonant " f ", under digital input pattern, click this virtual key 201 and can input numeral " 3 ", under English input pattern, click this virtual key 201 and can input English " d ", " e ", " f "; Under Pinyin Input pattern, digital input pattern and English input pattern, click this virtual key 202 and can input comma, "; As shown in Figure 2 B, under stroke input pattern, clicking this virtual key 201 can entering stroke " Pie ".

Again for example, with reference to Fig. 2 C, show the exemplary plot of the another kind of dummy keyboard of the embodiment of the present invention, this dummy keyboard 210 can be called full keyboard or 26 key boards, typical full keyboard or 26 key boards can be QWERT keyboard, mainly can comprise 26 virtual keys.For virtual key 211, under Pinyin Input pattern, click this virtual key 211 and can input semivowel " w ", under English input pattern, click this virtual key 211 and can input English " w ", under digital input pattern, click this virtual key 211 and can input numeral " 2 "; For virtual key 212, under Pinyin Input pattern, click this virtual key 212 and can input initial consonant " g ", under English input pattern, click this virtual key 211 and can input English " g ", under symbol input pattern, can input percentage sign " % ".

Certainly, above-mentioned dummy keyboard, just as example, when implementing the embodiment of the present invention, can arrange other dummy keyboards according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited this.In addition, except above-mentioned dummy keyboard, those skilled in the art can also adopt other dummy keyboard according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited this yet.

When user inputs at dummy keyboard, can for example, with finger or other object (, stylus) position at dummy keyboard place in electronic equipment touch-screen, slide.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, step 101 can comprise following sub-step:

Sub-step S11, the touch event of monitoring on dummy keyboard;

In specific implementation, described touch event can have corresponding tracing point, and described touch event can comprise the event of pressing, moving event and lift at least one in event;

Sub-step S12, the tracing point that the event of pressing, the moving event of association and the corresponding tracing point of the event of lifting are set to effectively slide.

Conventionally, touch-screen can form by touching detection part and touch screen controller, touch detection part and be arranged on before indicator screen, touch the touch information (for example touch event) that detection part can detect user, after reception, send touch screen controller to.

Wherein, pressing event (Down) can represent that user presses at touch-screen and not move, do not lift, moving event (Move) can represent that user starts mobile (or sliding) after touch-screen is pressed, and lifts event (Up) and can represent that user lifts at touch-screen.

And touch screen controller can convert this touch signal to tracing point coordinate (rectangular coordinate system for example, be X coordinate and Y coordinate), give again CPU (the Central Processing Unit of electronic equipment, central processing unit), this CPU can be configured to carry out the function of the application program (for example, input method procedure) of inputting by dummy keyboard, simultaneously, touch screen controller can receive the order being sent by CPU and be carried out (for example, showing candidate characters).

It should be noted that, the sequencing that each tracing point enters CPU can comprise temporal information, to characterize the order that slides of tracing point.

As shown in Figure 3A, using full keyboard as the example of dummy keyboard, be easy expression in Fig. 3, with English or phonetic, identifies this virtual key, but do not represent that this virtual key does not have other input functions (for example, input character, input numeral).Point on this full keyboard, circle can represent a tracing point (comprising tracing point 301, tracing point 302, tracing point 303, tracing point 304).Wherein, tracing point 301 can be starting point (pressing the corresponding tracing point of event), estimation point 304 can be terminal (lifting the corresponding tracing point of event), from starting point to terminal, caught a series of tracing point, visually, as shown in Figure 3 B, on the track sliding user, this sequentially connected tracing point can be regarded as the sliding trajectory of user on dummy keyboard.

For example, the 1st tracing point correspondence pressed event, 2-9 the corresponding moving event of tracing point, the 10th tracing point correspondence lifted event, and the 11st tracing point correspondence pressed event, so, can using 1-10 tracing point as the tracing point once effectively sliding, the 11st tracing point is later can regard in addition the tracing point effectively sliding once as.

In another kind of preferred embodiment of the present invention, step 101 can also comprise following sub-step:

Sub-step S13, carries out round and smooth processing to the described tracing point effectively sliding.

In specific implementation, for certain tracing point, can calculate the mean value of the individual tracing point coordinate of N (N is positive integer) (for example, X coordinate, Y coordinate) that is connected with this tracing point, to replace the coordinate of this tracing point.

It should be noted that, N can be inversely proportional to the current speed sliding, and the fast place of sliding speed can be got several tracing point calculating mean values less, and several tracing point calculating mean values can be got in the slow place of sliding speed more.

For example, export successively 5 tracing point a, b, c, d and e, in output trajectory point c, when if the speed sliding current is greater than certain threshold speed, can adopt the mean value of the coordinate of tracing point b and c, when if the speed sliding current is less than another threshold speed, can adopt the mean value of the coordinate of estimation point a, b, c.

As shown in Figure 4 A and 4 B shown in FIG., original track (track originally) can represent the sliding trajectory without round and smooth processing, smoothness is lower, there are many burr phenomenas, smooth track (smooth track) can represent the sliding trajectory through round and smooth processing, improved smoothness, burr phenomena significantly reduces.

The embodiment of the present invention, through round and smooth processing, can reduce the burr phenomena of sliding trajectory, improves the accuracy that flex point detects.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, after round and smooth processing, can carry out the detection of flex point.

In fact, flex point is also a tracing point, but need to meet at least one in following two kinds of conditions:

First condition: flexibility is greater than default flexibility threshold value;

Second condition: the flexibility in several tracing points (being a certain section of sliding trajectory) that are connected is maximum.

In specific implementation, as shown in Figure 5, if calculate the flexibility of tracing point 504, can take this tracing point 504 is the center of circle, the length of presetting of take is radius, form a circle 500, tracing point 504 can be connected with the outer first tracing point of this circle 500 (being tracing point 501 and tracing point 507) respectively, with shape in an angle.This angle can characterize flexibility, and particularly, this angle is larger, and flexibility is less, and this angle is less, and flexibility is larger.On the contrary, tracing point can not be connected with the tracing point (being tracing point 502, tracing point 503, tracing point 505 and tracing point 506) in this circle 500.

In actual applications, flex point can characterize turning to of sliding trajectory, and generally, when the required virtual key of that user is triggered, sliding trajectory may be turned to, also may continue to slide according to former direction, to trigger other virtual keys, when flex point occurs, it is user's request that the virtual key that this flex point triggers has very large probability, for example, and as shown in Figure 3, tracing point 302 can be flex point, what near virtual key flex point " i ", " o ", " k " may be for user's requests.

It should be noted that starting point and terminal also can be regarded flex point as.

Step 102, calculates respectively one or more virtual keys that each tracing point triggers;

In specific implementation, described tracing point can have coordinate, and described virtual key can have responding range;

In embodiments of the present invention, step 102 can comprise following sub-step:

Sub-step S21, judges that respectively the coordinate of each tracing point is whether in the responding range of one or more virtual keys; If so, carry out sub-step S22;

Sub-step S22, extracts described one or more virtual key according to the order that slides of described tracing point.

In actual applications, while sliding input due to user, due to reasons such as shakes, can not slip over very exactly the center of required virtual key, therefore, the responding range of slightly large virtual key can be set.For example, as shown in Figure 6, can take the center of virtual key is the center of circle, and 1.4 times of distance at adjacent virtual button center of take are radius, form a circle, are the responding range of virtual key in this circle.The responding range of virtual key p can be 601, and the responding range of virtual key l can be 602, etc.

And because the responding range of virtual key can be larger, therefore, the responding range that the virtual key of near zone is set may exist overlapping region, for example, as shown in Figure 6, there is overlapping region 603 with responding range 602 in responding range 601.

When tracing point is during in the overlapping region of virtual key responding range, this tracing point can trigger two or more virtual keys.

This section that slides into tracing point 302 from tracing point 301 slides rail and has 7 tracing points, can identify virtual key as shown in the table:

Table 1

Wherein, the 2nd tracing point can be tracing point 302 for 301, the 7 tracing points of tracing point, is easy expression, the virtual key being triggered with English or phonetic sign.And can be found out by the example of table 1, a tracing point often can trigger at least two virtual keys, and therefore, virtual key can form the relation being interweaved, and a vivid angle, this virtual key can be called network.In this network, if carry out Chinese identification, can filter out the virtual key sequence that meets input in Chinese characteristic, this network can be called phonetic network, if carry out English identification, can filter out the virtual key sequence that meets English input characteristics, this network can be called English network.

In a kind of preferred exemplary of the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 6, suppose the virtual key " i " that tracing point 302 triggers, as shown in Figure 2 C, can, for inputting numeral " 8 ", can add the numeral that virtual key " i " is corresponding to tracing point 302, if this virtual key 302 can also be for other information such as incoming symbols, can add other information such as symbol to this virtual key 302, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited this yet.

Table 2

In this network, if carry out Chinese identification, can filter out the virtual key sequence that meets input in Chinese characteristic, if carry out English identification, can filter out the virtual key sequence that meets English input characteristics, if carry out the English and digital identification that mixes, can filter out the virtual key sequence that meets English input characteristics and digital input characteristics.

Step 103 filters out the virtual key sequence that meets language input characteristics from described virtual key;

Described language input characteristics can include but not limited to meet at least one in input in Chinese characteristic, English input characteristics and digital input feature;

Every kind of language all can have the input characteristics of self, such as input in Chinese characteristic can comprise in syllable characteristic, font characteristic etc. one or more etc., for making those skilled in the art understand better the embodiment of the present invention, in this manual, a kind of example using input in Chinese characteristic, English input characteristics and digital input feature as language input characteristics describes.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, step 103 can comprise following sub-step:

Sub-step S31, during the one or more virtual key triggering at each tracing point of traversal, successively determines virtual key sequence corresponding to current tracing point;

Sub-step S32, obtains the virtual key sequence that current tracing point is corresponding, the new virtual key sequence that the virtual key corresponding with next tracing point forms;

It should be noted that, the embodiment of the present invention can travel through one or more virtual keys that each tracing point triggers, and from starting point, has traveled through terminal, to search the virtual key sequence that meets language input characteristics, the sequence that virtual key forms.Current determined new virtual key sequence, can be used as the current virtual key sequence while traveling through next time.

For example, virtual key as shown in table 1, for initial traversal, for the 1st tracing point, the keystroke sequence that current tracing point is corresponding can comprise " M " and " N " two paths, the virtual key that next tracing point is corresponding comprises " M ", " M " and " K ", can form " M-M ", " M-M ", " M-K ", " N-M ", " N-M " and " M-K " six new virtual key sequences.If " M-M ", " M-M ", " M-K ", " N-M ", " N-M " and " M-K " these six new virtual key sequences meet language input characteristics and are retained,, when upper once traversal (adding the 3rd virtual key corresponding to tracing point), can be used as the virtual key sequence that current current tracing point is corresponding.

In addition, the embodiment of the present invention can be carried out duplicate removal processing in sub-step S32, to remove the virtual key sequence repeating as above-mentioned " M-M ", " N-M " etc., reduces calculated amount.

Sub-step S33, judges whether described new virtual key sequence meets at least one in input in Chinese characteristic, English input characteristics and digital input feature; If so, carry out sub-step S34, and sub-step S35, if not, carries out sub-step S36;

In specific implementation, can adopt prefix trees (Tire tree, a kind of Data Structures) to judge whether new virtual key sequence meets input in Chinese characteristic.

Particularly, prefix trees can have general 400 nodes for storing all phonetic, and each root node can represent a letter, and each leaf node can represent the ending of a phonetic.From root node to leaf node, can express a complete phonetic.

Whether whether the virtual key sequence that is n to random length can judge in the time whether it is the phonetic of spelling at O (n) (time complexity), or be the phonetic of last word simplicity, or be phonetic.

For example, the phonetic " zaoshang " of spelling and the phonetic " zs " of simplicity that " morning " is corresponding, can judge that in prefix trees " zaoshang ", for the phonetic of spelling, also can match the phonetic of " zs " possible spelling, wherein can comprise " zaoshang ", etc.;

Can gather the English making Database in English that a large number of users is used, for example, " good ", " morning ", etc.

Hybrid database counted in English and the numeral composition English that can gather use that a large number of users mixes, for example, and " IOS8 ", " MD5 ", etc.

At least one that new virtual key sequence is counted in hybrid database at above-mentioned phonetic database, Database in English and English mated, when the match is successful, judge that this states new virtual key sequence and meet at least one in input in Chinese characteristic, English input characteristics and digital input feature.

Particularly, if when the match is successful in phonetic database, judge that this virtual key sequence meets input in Chinese characteristic; If when the match is successful in Database in English, judge that this virtual key sequence meets English input characteristics; If when English counts in hybrid database that the match is successful, judge that this virtual key sequence meets English input characteristics and digital input characteristics.

Sub-step S34, calculates button weight corresponding to described new virtual key sequence;
