Description

Display method and device of error correction items and device for displaying error correction items

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of input methods, in particular to a display method of an error correction item, a display device of the error correction item and a device for displaying the error correction item.

Background

With the wider application of internet technology, many daily tasks and entertainment activities need to be performed on mobile devices or touch-enabled devices, and human-computer interaction is completed by inputting information through click operations.

For users in chinese, japanese, korean, etc. and today's users in part of the arabic system, interaction with various devices through input methods is generally required.

Taking the example of chinese, generally, a string of letters is input by the user, the system needs to convert the string of letters into a string of chinese characters, and the user is likely to have many errors due to various interferences during the input process.

The reasons for these errors are the following:

1. chinese characters are used instead of pinyin when writing, although education of pinyin is received from a short time, the pinyin character strings are input incorrectly due to the fact that the Chinese characters are used infrequently.

2. Due to regional limitation, China has many dialects, and the pronunciations of people in different places have certain differences, for example, the southern people distinguish the curled tongue-flat tongue, the front nose sound-back nose sound differently from the northern people, which easily causes the input error of the pinyin character string.

3. The proficiency of the keyboard and the speed of input directly affect the accuracy of the user input.

In order to reduce the number of times of user modification and improve the input speed, some input methods realize the error correction function at present, carry out error correction processing on letters input by a user to obtain corresponding candidate items, and display the candidate items to the user by the input method for the user to select.

When a whole sentence is input, if a character is input by mistake, not only the character corresponding to the character string can be mistaken, but also some characters before and after the character can be influenced, and more errors are introduced.

In a touch screen, especially a mobile phone with a small area, because the number of the candidate items that can be presented is limited, in order to ensure that the candidate items of the error correction item do not affect the normal candidate items, the presentation of the error correction candidate items is often strictly limited, and generally only one or two error correction candidate items are provided.

However, one or two error correction candidates often cannot meet the requirements of the user, and especially, under the condition that the input letters have multiple error correction modes, the user can only quit the check and re-input, the purpose of error correction is not achieved, the input efficiency is low, and equipment resources are wasted.

Detailed Description

In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in further detail below.

Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart illustrating steps of an embodiment of a method for displaying an error correction item according to the present invention is shown, which may specifically include the following steps:

step 101, when a character string is received, displaying one or more candidate items found based on the character string;

it should be noted that the embodiment of the present invention may be applied to an electronic device with a touch screen, for example, a mobile phone, a PDA (Personal digital assistant), a laptop computer, a palmtop computer, and the like, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

The electronic device can support operating systems such as Windows, Android, IOS, Windows Phone and the like, and can generally run application programs for touch input in modes such as a virtual keyboard and the like.

In practical applications, the virtual keyboard may include a nine-grid keyboard, a full keyboard (e.g., a QWERT keyboard), etc., and the application program may include an input method program, etc.

The virtual keyboard may typically have one or more virtual keys, which are often multiplexed, mapped with one or more characters, which may be used to input characters, and mapped to different characters for different languages, such as chinese, english, japanese, etc.

In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the embodiment of the present invention, in the embodiment of the present invention, chinese is illustrated as an example of speech.

In a specific implementation, the characters of the virtual key mapping may specifically include, but are not limited to, at least one of input numeric characters, english characters, chinese characters (such as pinyin characters, stroke characters, etc.), and symbolic characters.

For example, referring to fig. 2A and 2B, there are shown exemplary diagrams of a virtual keyboard 200, which may be referred to as a squared or 9-key keyboard, according to embodiments of the present invention.

For the virtual key 201, as shown in fig. 2A, in the pinyin input mode, the virtual key 201 maps pinyin characters, an initial "d", a final "e", and an initial "f"; in the numeric input mode, the virtual button 201 may map the numeric character "3", and in the english input mode, the virtual button 201 may map the english characters "d", "e", "f"; in the pinyin input mode, the numeric input mode, and the english input mode, the virtual keys 202 may map symbolic characters, commas, "; as shown in FIG. 2B, in the stroke input mode, the virtual key 201 maps stroke characters "" down "" and "" down "".

For another example, referring to fig. 2C, which shows an exemplary view of another virtual keyboard of embodiments of the present invention, the virtual keyboard 210 may be referred to as a full keyboard or 26-key keyboard, and a typical full keyboard or 26-key keyboard may be a QWERT keyboard.

For the virtual key 211, in the pinyin input mode, the virtual key 211 may map a pinyin character, a semi-vowel "w"; in the english input mode, the virtual key 211 can map an english character "w"; in the number input mode, the virtual key 211 may have a number character of "2"; for the virtual key 212, in the pinyin input mode, the virtual key 212 may map the pinyin character "g"; in the english input mode, the virtual key 211 may map an english character "g", and in the symbol input mode, may map a symbol character, a percentile "%".

Of course, the virtual keyboard and the virtual keys are only examples, and other virtual keyboards and virtual keys may be set according to actual situations when implementing the embodiment of the present invention, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. In addition, besides the virtual keyboard and the virtual keys, those skilled in the art may also adopt other virtual keyboards and virtual keys according to actual needs, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

The triggered characters are combined into character strings, and the character strings can be converted into candidate items through a preset coding mode (such as pinyin, wubi, English and the like).

In a specific implementation, the character string may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a numeric character string, an english character string, a chinese character string (e.g., a pinyin character string, a stroke character string, etc.), a symbolic character string, and a hybrid character string (including at least two different character strings), which may be converted into at least one of a numeric candidate item, an english candidate item, a chinese candidate item, a symbolic candidate item, and a hybrid candidate item (including at least two different candidate items).

In one embodiment of the present invention, the candidate item may include a feature candidate item and/or an error correction item.

The character candidate item is a candidate item matched with the character string;

the error correction item may include an error correction character string and an error correction candidate item, the error correction character string is obtained by performing error correction processing on the character string, and the error correction candidate item is a candidate item matched with the error correction character string.

Then, in an embodiment of the present invention, step 101 may include the following sub-steps:

a substep S11 of searching one or more feature candidate items matched with the character string in a preset word stock;

in the speech such as chinese and japanese, the characters such as chinese and japanese as basic language units are not generally directly mapped to the keys on the virtual keyboard, and therefore, conversion between character strings and words is generally required at the time of input.

Specifically, a mapping relation is established between characters such as Chinese characters and words and character strings capable of being directly input through a coding rule, for example, the common codes in Chinese are pinyin (such as simple pinyin, double pinyin, full pinyin, fuzzy sound and the like), five strokes and the like.

Taking Chinese character input as an example, a user inputs a character string of a Chinese character into an input method through a virtual keyboard, and the input method decodes the character string, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:

a. pinyin analysis: the character string is segmented into pinyin.

For example, the character string "zhuanli" is split into "zhuanan", "li", and the character string "fangan" is split into "fang", "an", and "fan", "gan".

b. Chinese character decoding: and searching characters, words and sentences corresponding to the pinyin in a word bank.

In this embodiment of the present invention, one or more word banks may be preset, and may include a system word bank that records basic words, a cell word bank that records expanded words (words in the cell word bank have at least one common attribute), such as a cell word bank that records a certain game-specific word, a cell word bank that records a biological-specific word, and the like, and may also include a user word bank that records user-customized words (e.g., self-made words), and the like, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

The language information needed by the input method is stored in the word stock, and as different characters may correspond to the same code, for a specific character string, the input method can complete the conversion of the character string with the characters, the words and the sentences through the word stock, and guess the real input intention of the user.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the thesaurus may contain various language information, such as:

(1) an entry;

although an input method can be constructed on the basis of characters, the input method uses entries in a large number because words are the smallest units of semantic meaning commonly used in chinese.

For example, when a user inputs the string "zhuan" based on the pinyin criterion, there are multiple homophones, and it is difficult to determine which word the user wants to input "turn, specialize, earn, brick … …".

Similarly, when the user inputs the character string "li" based on the pinyin specification, a plurality of homophones exist, and it is difficult to determine which character of "li, li … …" the user wants to input.

However, if the user continuously inputs the character string "zhuanli" based on the pinyin criterion, the input method may determine that the word "patent" is input by the user with a high probability according to the existing entry rule.

(2) And (4) word frequency.

Homophones exist in large numbers and homophones still exist, so the input method generally lists all options for the user to select.

However, the position of the candidate has a great influence on the usability of the input method, and it is often more beneficial for the user to put the more frequently used candidate at a position, i.e. the word frequency (i.e. the use frequency of the entry, including the use frequency of the current user and the use frequency of the group users) is one of the bases for sorting the candidates.

In addition, the input method often integrates the function of self-constructed words and sentences, and in this case, the word frequency is also one of the bases for word and sentence construction.

Of course, in addition, the word stock may also include other information, such as language connection relationships, that is, connection relationships between words, for example, "of" often appears after adjectives, nouns, pronouns, and the like, and "of" often appears after adverbs, and the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

c. And displaying the searched characters, words and sentences as candidate items.

Because the displayed positions are limited, in order to display the candidate items with higher probability required by the user in a limited manner, the input method generally calculates scores for the searched candidate items.

In scoring, the following factors are typically considered:

(1) user attributes;

different users may need to use the same word, but the importance of the word may vary from user to user.

For example, the homophones "research" and "smoking and drinking" are used more often in academic areas, while the latter are used more often in daily life, but both are possible.

Thus, when the user enters the pinyin string "yanjiu", both may appear in the candidate. However, if it is clear that the current user is a student, the "study" is more likely to be required by the current user, and the weight thereof may be increased.

(2) Inputting an environment;

the weight of the lexicon and/or the entry can be dynamically adjusted through the use environment of the input method.

For example, if the input method includes two cell word banks of "office words" and "network words," the entry words commonly used in office and the entry words commonly used in network chat are recorded, respectively.

The two Word banks are generally the same in priority, but when the input method identifies that the input is made in Word, the Word bank of the office expression can be weighted, and when the user makes an input in the conversation window of the instant messaging tool, the Word bank of the network expression can be weighted.

(3) Word frequency;

in general, the higher the word frequency, the higher its weight, whereas the lower the word frequency, the lower its weight.

(4) And a location.

If the word banks in the word bank are ordered according to the weights, if the entry with the high weight is ordered in the front, the relative position of the entry in the word bank can express the weight of the entry.

A substep S12, performing error correction processing on the character string to obtain one or more error correction character strings;

a substep S13 of searching one or more error correction candidates matching the one or more error correction strings in a preset lexicon;

because pinyin letters generally need to be input when Chinese characters are input, and then the pinyin letters are converted into Chinese characters through interaction between an input method program and a computer, errors which may occur in the conversion process are corrected, and related error correction scenes can include, but are not limited to, the following types:

(1) and southern fuzzy sound: due to regional limitation, China has many dialects, and the pronunciation of people in different places has certain difference, for example, the southern people can distinguish the curled tongue-flat tongue, the anterior nose sound-posterior nose sound differently from the northern people.

(2) And operation is uncoordinated: it is common to interchange left and right hand keys or two keys in succession with the same hand, such as inputting the syllable "le" to "el", or mistakenly inputting the left hand input sequence "er" to "re". Of course, the former case requires distinguishing between a "bad" spool and a true "le-el" error (wrong form-correct form, the same applies below).

(3) Frequently occurring key press errors: for example, the user mistakenly presses the "y" key into the "u" key due to the reasons of the flexibility degree of the fingers, the characteristics of the keyboard and the like; or pressing in the middle of the "u" key and the "y" key causes both keys to be pressed, and these erroneous inputs are often accompanied by a backspace correction by the user.

(4) The keyboard buttons are relatively narrow: for example, in the limited input environment of the virtual keyboard, the keyboard buttons are relatively narrow and the operation is completed by the thumb with a large area, so that wrong input such as wrong pressing, multiple pressing and the like is easily caused, and the associated key positions are often adjacent to the target key positions on the keyboard.

(5) Button response hysteresis: for example, the key response is delayed due to the quality of the keyboard, which is easy to cause the repeated input of the user. For example, system problems cause the key to be insensitive, and the user may not see the input screen after first clicking, which may result in subsequent multi-tap by the user.

In the embodiment of the invention, the input information of the user can be collected, the input habit information of the user is identified according to the input information, and the preset error correction model is adjusted by adopting the input habit information to obtain the personalized error correction model.

And correcting the error of the character string input by the user by adopting a preset error correction model or the personalized error correction model to obtain error correction characters.

In practical applications, the input information of the user may include user input content, user behavior characteristics, input environment characteristics, input method input modes, and the like.

The input internal answer comprises a user word bank and content displayed on a screen, and for the content of the user word bank, the coding habits related to the user word bank and the entries can be obtained. In addition, if the user thesaurus can store a relatively long user input sequence, the user habit can be obtained from the user input sequence.

In identifying input habit information, the analysis of user behavior characteristics may include the following:

(1) language model (N-Gram) statistics: N-Gram is a Language Model commonly used in large vocabulary continuous speech recognition, and is commonly referred to as Chinese Language Model (CLM) for Chinese.

The Chinese language model can calculate the sentences with the maximum probability by using the collocation information between adjacent words in the context when the continuous blank-free pinyin, strokes or numbers representing letters or strokes are required to be converted into Chinese character strings (namely sentences), thereby realizing the automatic conversion to Chinese characters.

The embodiment of the invention can analyze the input fragment, consider the context and judge whether the input fragment is reasonable or not.

For example, in the case of no support for pinyin and english input, "tre" is an illegal sequence based on normal user input statistics.

(2) Inputting proficiency: speed per letter, speed per entry, etc. is entered. According to the input proficiency of the user, whether the user frequently generates input errors can be judged.

(3) The input time interval of the two continuous keys and the layout of the two keys are as follows: if two adjacent key positions are continuously input and the time interval is extremely short, the possibility that the user mistakenly clicks one more key exists.

(4) The keystroke position deviation degree and the keystroke force are as follows: whether a certain key is frequently pressed and wrongly pressed, and the flexibility of fingers related to the key.

(5) And simply piecing together the habit: whether to use simple spelling or commonly used simple spelling mode. Such as a simple spelling of the last syllable initial, a full simple spelling, etc.

(6) And user feedback: whether the user uses the error correction prompt information given by the input method. If the error correction result given by the input method is corrected by the user, the corresponding penalty (such as weight reduction) is received.

For example, errors caused by physiological reasons (such as "ia-ai", "re-er", "ehh-heh" (last word syllable simple spelling form of the laugh' operation)) caused by uncoordinated operation, or errors such as "y-u" caused by unskilled operation, or specific errors caused by input environment limitations (such as "aa-a" caused by poor quality of some key positions of the keyboard and response to sticking, or errors such as "qw-q" caused by narrow key position layout of the keyboard) can be corrected.

The analysis of the input environment features may include analyzing the characteristics of the keyboard, including area per key, distance between keys, etc.

The analysis of the input mode of the input method can include analyzing whether the input method supports simple spelling or English input, and the like, and if so, some error correction rules established in the full spelling mode are not applicable any more.

The specific form of the error correction model can be various, such as a decision tree, a rule base composed of a series of error correction rules, and the like.

In the decision tree method, a plurality of judgment conditions may be used as each node of the decision tree. Because each judgment condition has a certain discrimination, a discrimination-based method can be adopted when the decision tree is constructed, and the higher the discrimination is, the closer the discrimination is to the root node.

For example, inputting a pinyin character string beginning with tre, when performing error correction, an error correction model (here, a decision tree) available to a current user may be obtained first, and the following steps are performed according to the order of judgment conditions in the decision tree:

judging whether English input is supported, if so, not correcting the English (such as intently inputting English words 'tree'); if not, judging whether the simplified spelling habit of the non-last letter exists, if so, not correcting the error (for example, the simplified spelling form of 'too hot' is input); if not, judging whether the time interval between the user input t and r is less than a certain preset time, if not, not performing error correction (basically excluding the possibility of multi-typing in the r key when the t is typed in), and if so, giving an error correction suggestion of 'te'.

In the rule base method, the rule base may be composed of a series of error correction rules, which are expressed in the form of "gn-ng", "lgn-lng", etc., and when error correction is performed, the error correction rules available for the current user-input character string may be obtained, and then error correction is performed by using the available error correction rules.

The initial state of the personalized error correction model can be null, that is, the personalized error correction model of the user is established from the time when the user installs and uses the input method, and the personalized error correction model of the user is gradually adjusted by continuously collecting and analyzing the input information of the user.

In addition, the initial state of the current personalized error correction model may also be a general error correction model generated by training according to a large amount of user input information in advance, the general error correction model is gradually adjusted through the collection and analysis of the current user input information, the personalized error correction model is gradually accumulated, when the personalized user input information is less, the personalized proportion is less, and when the personalized user input information is more, the proportion is increased, and finally the personalized error correction model of the user is formed.

Wherein, the universal error correction model is trained by using data of all users and is generally determined when the input method is packed and released. When the current user uses the universal error correction model, the universal error correction model is trained by using the data of the user to generate a corresponding personalized error correction model_。

The universal error correction model can be issued to a file along with an input method installation packageThe calculator is local and can be updated through a network. The parameters of the error correction model are adjusted as the user input information is collected and analyzed_，Which may be represented in implementation as a segment of memory space attached to the input method process and may save updates as appropriate as part of the current user profile and may update to a remote server when a network connection is available.

For the character string corrected after error correction, as with the normal character string, matched characters, words, sentences and the like can be searched in the word stock as the error correction candidate items.

And a substep S14 of displaying at least part of the feature candidates and/or at least part of the error correction candidates.

In practical application, when the candidate is matched in the word stock, the feature candidate obtains a score, when the error correction character string is matched in the word stock, the error correction candidate obtains an error correction score in the error correction model, when the candidate is matched in the word stock, the error correction candidate obtains a score, and the error correction score and the score of the candidate are combined (such as after weighting), so that the final score of the error correction candidate is obtained.

The feature candidate items and the error correction candidate items may be sorted according to the scores, and candidate items with scores lower than a preset score threshold value are screened out.

Since different chinese character sequences (characters, words, sentences) may have the same character string, resulting in more candidates, the input method usually provides a list of candidates for the user to select from.

However, the position in the candidate bar is generally limited, especially in electronic devices with small screens such as mobile phones, and therefore, the obtained candidates (feature candidates and/or error correction candidates) may be shown in pages, the candidates with higher scores (feature candidates and/or error correction candidates) are preferentially shown in the candidate bar, and the other candidates (feature candidates and/or error correction candidates) may be shown in the candidate bar generally through a page flipping operation.

It should be noted that, if the character string is correctly input, the score of the error correction candidate is low, and only the feature candidate may be present in the candidate.

If the character string is input incorrectly, the score of the characteristic candidate item is low, and only the error correction candidate item may exist in the candidate items.

If a character in the character string is input incorrectly, the scores of the feature candidate item and the error correction candidate item are equivalent, and the feature candidate item and the error correction candidate item may exist in the candidate items at the same time.

In this case, if the score of the error correction candidate is the highest, the error correction candidate may be presented as the first candidate.

Step 102, detecting a pressing operation aiming at the candidate item;

in the embodiment of the invention, on one hand, if the presented candidate item (the feature candidate item and/or the error correction candidate item) has a candidate item (the feature candidate item and/or the error correction candidate item) required by the user, the user can perform screen-up operation by performing pressing operation on the candidate item;

on the other hand, if the presented candidates (feature candidates and/or error correction candidates) do not have the error correction item (error correction character string or error correction candidate) required by the user, the user can trigger the presentation of other error correction items (error correction character string or error correction candidate) by pressing the candidates.

The pressing operation may refer to an operation generated when a user presses a touch screen of the electronic device.

When the pressing operation is detected, a position where the pressing operation occurs may be determined, and when the candidate is displayed in the position, the pressing operation for the candidate may be determined to be detected.

Wherein, when the feature candidate is displayed at the position, it may be determined that a pressing operation for the feature candidate is detected.

When the error correction candidates are displayed at the position, it may be determined that a pressing operation for the error correction candidates is detected.

Step 103, inquiring the pressing type of the pressing operation;

the pressing operation is triggered by a user and generally has the intention of the user, and if the pressing operation is detected, the operation mode of the intention of the user can be obtained by analyzing the pressing type of the pressing operation, such as screen-up candidate items, error correction character string display, error correction candidate item display and the like.

In one embodiment of the present invention, step 103 may comprise the following sub-steps:

a substep S21 of detecting a pressing pressure of the pressing operation;

in practical application, the pressing pressure of the pressing operation can be detected through a set of touch technologies integrating capacitive touch and infrared induction.

Specifically, one or more infrared transmitters are disposed below the touch screen to transmit infrared light to the touch screen glass cover at a specific angle.

These angles are selected to provide 100% reflection of reflected light from the top and bottom surfaces of the cover, as well as from the ambient air and fingers.

When the light in the glass cover is reflected, the emitted infrared rays will trigger a receiver which can calculate the total number of total internal reflections, and the receiver displays different output readings according to whether the reflected light comes from the surrounding air or the finger of the user, thereby realizing the detection of the pressing pressure.

Of course, besides, a pressure sensor may be attached under the touch screen to detect the pressing pressure, or the pressing pressure may be detected by other methods, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

A substep S22 of inquiring a pressure range to which the pressing pressure belongs;

and a substep S23 of determining that the pressing operation belongs to a pressing type corresponding to the pressure range.

By applying the embodiment of the invention, corresponding pressing types can be configured according to different operation modes, each pressing type corresponds to a pressure range, namely the pressing pressure is in the pressure range, and the pressing operation belongs to the pressing type.

In a specific implementation, for two operation modes of presenting an error correction item and an on-screen candidate item, two types of a first target pressing operation and a second target pressing operation can be configured.

Since the error correction item includes the error correction character string and the error correction candidate, the first target pressing operation may include a first sub-target pressing operation and/or a second sub-target pressing operation, which are respectively configured to two operation modes of presenting the error correction character string and presenting the error correction candidate.

The pressure range corresponding to the first sub-target pressing operation is a first pressure range;

the pressure range corresponding to the second sub-target pressing operation is a second pressure range;

the pressure range corresponding to the second target pressing operation is a third pressure range.

The pressure ranges, including the first pressure range, the second pressure range, and the third pressure range, may be preset, may be defined by a user, and may be formed by performing adjustment according to feedback of the user on the basis of the preset pressure ranges.

In one example, the pressure values in the first pressure range are less than the pressure values in the second pressure range and the pressure values in the third pressure range are less than the pressure values in the first pressure range.

Therefore, the first sub-target pressing operation may be referred to as a heavy pressing, that is, the heavy pressing candidate may trigger presentation of the error correction string; the second sub-target pressing operation may be called a tap, that is, the tap of the candidate item may trigger presentation of the error correction candidate item; the second target press operation may be referred to as a click, i.e. clicking on the candidate may trigger the candidate to be on-screen.

Of course, the operation manner of the pressing operation is only an example, and when the embodiment of the present invention is implemented, other operation manners of the pressing operation may be set according to actual situations, for example, a candidate is lightly pressed to trigger presentation of an error correction character string, a candidate is heavily pressed to trigger presentation of an error correction candidate, and the like.

If the operating system of the electronic device provides an API (Application Programming Interface) for detecting the press type, the API Interface may be directly called to detect the press type.

For example, a proxy object and a source view (such as a view for showing an error correction item) of the preview function are registered in the IOS system, and the proxy object accepts the UIViewControllerPreviewingDelegate protocol, that is, Peek (soft press) and Pop (heavy press) methods in the protocol can be realized.

If the operating system of the electronic device does not provide an API for press type detection, the press type can be identified after the press pressure is acquired.

And 104, when the pressing type is a first specified target pressing operation, displaying one or more error correction items obtained by performing error correction processing on the character string.

And if the detected pressing type is the first target pressing operation, indicating that no error correction item required by the user exists in the currently displayed candidate items.

In one case, only the feature candidates exist among the candidates, but the user needs an error correction character string to input the error correction candidates.

In another case, there are error correction candidates among the candidates, but the error correction string matching the error correction candidate is not required by the user, and the user needs another error correction string to input the other error correction candidates.

In another case, there is an error correction candidate among the candidates, and although an error correction string matching the error correction candidate is required by the user, the error correction candidate is not required by the user, and the user requires another error correction string.

Therefore, it is possible to display an error correction item, such as an error correction string or an error correction candidate, obtained by performing error correction processing for the string.

In one embodiment of the present invention, step 104 may include the following sub-steps:

a substep S31 of displaying one or more error correction character strings obtained by performing error correction processing for the character strings when the pressing type is a designated first sub-target pressing operation;

in the embodiment of the present invention, if the first sub-target pressing operation is detected, the error correction character string corresponding to the error correction candidate targeted by the first sub-target pressing operation may be determined.

If the first sub-target pressing operation occurs on the error correction candidate, it may be indicated that the first sub-target pressing operation is directed to the error correction candidate;

if the first sub-target pressing operation occurs on the error correction candidates, it may also be indicated that the first sub-target pressing operation is directed to all the error correction candidates currently displayed in the candidate bar.

If the first sub-target pressing operation occurs on the feature candidate, it may indicate that the error correction candidate for which the first sub-target pressing operation is directed is empty.

Of course, the above determination manner of the error correction candidates is only used as an example, and when the embodiment of the present invention is implemented, other determination manners of the error correction candidates may be set according to actual situations, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

If the error correction character string is determined, the target error correction character string other than the error correction character string can be searched in all the error correction character strings obtained by performing error correction processing on the character string.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the target error correction character strings may be displayed in candidate columns and the like, and due to the limited display positions, at least part of the target error correction character strings, such as one or more of the highest-scoring target error correction character strings, may be displayed.

Taking the user's intention to input "full-time" as an example, as shown in fig. 3A, assuming that the user wrongly inputs the character string "qjanzhi" in the pinyin mode, the input method receives the character string "qjanzhi" input by the user and performs chinese character conversion, and obtains feature candidate items "interval" (treating "qjan" as a simple spelling of "qujian"), "please see" (treating "qjan" as a simple spelling of "qinjiang"), "ask for leave" (treating "qja" as a simple spelling of "qinjia"), "gunshot case" (treating "qjan" as a simple spelling of "qinji' an"), "scene" (treating "qj" as a simple spelling of "qinjing") and the like.

The character string 'qjanzhi' can be corrected into 'qianzhi' (regarding 'j' as 'i' for error input), 'quanzhi' (regarding 'j' as 'u' for error input) and the like according to an error correction model, and then Chinese character conversion is carried out to obtain error correction candidate items 'potential', 'preposition', 'full-time', 'weight', 'full-fat' and the like.

The feature candidates and the error correction candidates with higher scores (such as "potential", "gunshot case", "interval", and "scene") are displayed first, and the other feature candidates and the error correction candidates with lower scores (such as "full-time", "front", and the like) are not displayed.

Since the displayed error correction candidate belongs to the error correction character strings "qanzhi", "qaangji' an" and "qingjing", the belonging error correction character string "quanzhi" of "full-time" is not included.

Therefore, as shown in fig. 3B, the user may perform a re-pressing operation on the error correction candidates "potential", and assume that the re-pressing operation is directed to all error correction candidates currently displayed in the candidate bar, and the error correction string to which the re-pressing operation belongs is "qanzhi", that is, the target error correction string is "quanzhi", and is displayed in the candidate bar as shown in fig. 3C.

And a substep S32, when the target error correction string is triggered, displaying one or more error correction candidates matching the target error correction string.

If the displayed target error correction character string is needed by the user, the user can trigger the needed target error correction character string through specified operation, and then the matched error correction candidate item is displayed.

The triggering mode may include performing a second target pressing operation on the target error correction string, directly clicking a determination key to trigger a first target error correction string, and so on.

For example, as shown in fig. 3C, if the target error correction string is "quanzhi" as needed by the user, the user may click on "quanzhi" as shown in fig. 3D, and further, as shown in fig. 3E, the string is displayed as "quanzhi", and the error correction candidates "full-time", "weight", "full-fat", "full-knowledge", and "full-finger" matching the string are displayed in the candidate bar.

As shown in fig. 3F, the user can directly click "full-time" to perform the screen-up operation.

And/or the presence of a gas in the gas,

and a substep S33 of displaying one or more error correction candidates matching one or more error correction character strings when the press type is the designated second sub-target press operation.

In the embodiment of the present invention, if the second sub-target pressing operation is detected, the error correction character string corresponding to the error correction candidate for the second sub-target pressing operation may be determined.

If the second sub-target pressing operation occurs on the error correction candidate, it may be indicated that the second sub-target pressing operation is directed to the error correction candidate.

If the error correction character string is determined, searching target error correction candidate items, except the error correction candidate items, matched with the error correction character string from all the error correction candidate items matched with the error correction character string;

in the embodiment of the present invention, the target error correction candidates may be displayed in a floating layer, a window, or the like, or at other positions below the error correction candidate targeted by the second sub-target pressing operation, and because the display positions are limited, at least part of the target error correction candidates, such as one or more target error correction character strings with the highest scores, may be displayed.

It should be noted that the error correction candidate for which the second sub-target pressing operation is performed may be retained or deleted, so as to retain the position of the target error correction character string, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

Taking the user's intention to input "come" as an example, as shown in fig. 4A, assuming that the user wrongly inputs the character string "cjulai" in the pinyin mode, the input method receives the character string "cjulai" input by the user and performs chinese character conversion to obtain feature candidates "come distance", "difference", "tableware", "distance measurement", "offer", and the like.

The character string 'cjuulai' can be corrected into 'chuulai' according to the error correction model, Chinese character conversion is carried out, and error correction candidate items 'come out', 'come from the beginning' and the like are obtained.

The feature candidates and the error correction candidates with higher scores (such as "come out", "come from", "difference", "tableware") are displayed first, and the other feature candidates and the error correction candidates with lower scores (such as "range finding", "show", "come from", etc.) are not displayed.

The error correction character string to which the displayed error correction candidate "out" belongs is "chulaii" and is a "begining" character string, but the error correction candidate does not include "begining".

Therefore, as shown in fig. 4B, the user can perform a tap operation on the error correction candidate "out", the error correction string to which the user belongs is "chulai", and the error correction candidate matching the error correction string "chulai" includes "beginnings" in addition to "out".

Then "come" is displayed as the target error correction candidate in the form of a pull-down menu below the error correction candidate "come" as shown in fig. 4C.

As shown in fig. 4D, the user can directly click "home" to perform the screen-up operation.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the method embodiment may further include the steps of:

and 105, when the pressing type is a specified second target pressing operation, performing screen-up processing on the candidate.

In the embodiment of the present invention, if the second target pressing operation is detected, a candidate item for the second target pressing operation may be subjected to screen-up operation, where the candidate item may be a feature candidate item or an error correction candidate item.

It should be noted that, for simplicity of description, the method embodiments are described as a series of acts or combination of acts, but those skilled in the art will recognize that the present invention is not limited by the illustrated order of acts, as some steps may occur in other orders or concurrently in accordance with the embodiments of the present invention.
