Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to adopt the electronic information inquiring technology of numeric keypad, specifically, relate to a kind of method of carrying out data search by numerical key as input equipment.
Background technology
Generally use along with electronic message unit, especially mobile phone (hereinafter to be referred as mobile phone), telephone set extensively popularizes, the function of these equipment is expansion constantly also, all built-in functions such as input method, telecommunications book, notepad in a lot of electronic equipments.
This kind equipment all with numeric keypad as the main information input medium, numeric keypad key position is few, inconvenient operation, the input or Query Information all cumbersome.
For example, at present a lot of mobile phones, ordinary telephone set all have the telecommunications book, its structure is with each artificial record, comprise some fields in every record, be used to store information such as name, telephone number, fax, all right storing communication address, work unit, E-mail address and personal address etc. that function is strong.
For the telephone subscriber, enquiring telephone number from the telecommunications book is transferred to it then, is a function of often using.The searching method of current existing telecommunications book has following several:
First method is to inquire about according to name.This method is by the initial of first word of input name, selects the name of all surname first letter of pinyin that match by polling routine from the telecommunications book, and then searches by page turning up and down.For example inquiry " Zhou Runfa " then will be pressed 4 times " 9 ", 3 times " 7 " and 3 times " 3 " continuously, ability input alphabet " zrf ", and its operation is quite loaded down with trivial details, and inquiry velocity is slow.
Second method is according to the position that is recorded in the telecommunications book, from the beginning to the end inquiry.The seek rate of this searching method is very slow.
The third method is the initial of each word in the input name, searches corresponding record by polling routine from the telecommunications book.This method is with respect to preceding two kinds of methods, and query accuracy is higher, and speed is very fast, but operation is still quite loaded down with trivial details, and stroke is many.
Publication number is that 1340778 Chinese patent " method of inquiring about according to Chinese character information on numeric keypad " provides a kind of new querying method, by extracting in the Chinese character information phrase, phrase, name etc. more than the first letter of pinyin of continuous a plurality of Chinese characters of 1 Chinese character, each letter use with numeric keypad on a corresponding number keyboard representation, constitute the inquiry input coding, search the Chinese character information of coupling; Polling routine with the numerical key of Chinese character according to its first letter of pinyin correspondence, constitutes coding according to above-mentioned rule in real time in search procedure, carry out matched and searched.This method is compared with first three methods, and inquiry velocity further improves, and has simplified mode of operation, but also has certain limitation.This method is only searched at the information of full Chinese character, for other language, as Korean, Japanese, Chinese with Englishly mix, Chinese and digitally mix, the information of situations such as pattern identification all can't handle; In addition, for the extraction of the first letter of pinyin of Chinese character, do not consider the processing of fuzzy sound in south and dialect etc.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is to provide a kind of method of carrying out information search by numerical key, overcomes that inquiry velocity in the prior art is slow, complicated operation, shortcoming that process information is single.
The present invention may further comprise the steps by the method that numerical key carries out information search:
One, according to the different input modes of information, determine the feature unit of information and the extracting mode of feature key, constitute the numerical characteristic coding;
When two, setting up digital record, one constitutes the numerical characteristic coding set by step, is stored in the digital record;
Three, import the feature coding of required search information, encoding with the numerical characteristic in the digital record compares matched and searched, the information that output is hit.
The present invention adopts the mode of feature unit and feature key to carry out information search, not only can search for the information of full Chinese character, and for other languages, as Korean, Japanese, Chinese with Englishly mix, Chinese and digitally mix, the information of situations such as pattern identification also can handle; Consider the situation of fuzzy sound in south and dialect etc., for the extraction of first phonetic letter, by the definition of use characteristic key or certainly editor's mode handle.In addition, can also use the extraction of first key of strokes, just can handle for having write the inquiry of unreadable information by the definition of feature key.The present invention can be on numeric keypad searchable various forms of information, be fit to wider customer group.
Embodiment
Introduce content of the present invention below further in detail.
Key of the present invention is the constituted mode of numerical characteristic coding, needs to determine feature unit and extracts the feature key, is fit to Chinese character and situations such as other languages or Chinese and English mixing.
According to the classification of the difference of information, the numerical characteristic coding constitute following several situation.
For the information of single languages, as information such as Chinese, Korean or Japaneses, as a feature unit, the numerical key that extracts the initial correspondence by selected input method constitutes the numerical characteristic coding as the feature key by the feature key combination each word.For example the feature key of Chinese character information can be selected " phonetic ", " stroke " or other input modes according to the difference of input mode.
For english information, can select " word " or " syllable " as feature unit, and definite characteristic of correspondence letter with it, if " word " is as feature unit, then characteristic letter is the initial of each word, and as feature unit, then characteristic letter is by " syllable " pairing initial as if " syllable ", the pairing numerical key of these characteristic letters is exactly the feature key, constitutes the numerical characteristic coding by the feature key combination again.For example search " Steven Lee " according to existing method input " Steven Lee ", needs button " 7777,8,33,888,33,66,1,555,33,33 " totally 22 times; If according to word initial input character " SL ", then want button " 7777555 " totally 7 times.Adopt the present invention, if with " syllable " as feature unit, then characteristic letter is " STV L ", its corresponding numerical key " 78815 " constitutes the numerical characteristic coding, so only need button 5 times; If select " word " as feature unit, then characteristic letter is " SL ", and its corresponding numerical key is " 75 ", so only needs button 2 times.
For icon or other forms of information, can be by self-defined feature unit and feature key, constitute the numerical characteristic coding by the feature key combination of each feature unit.For example in icon library, pre-define feature unit and feature key, constitute the numerical characteristic coding, directly just can obtain corresponding feature unit and feature key then by the inquiry icon library.
For information Chinese and English or that Chinese and numeral etc. mix, can determine feature unit and feature key according to the difference of information in the manner described above, between the feature key of different input modes, adopt switch key Fn to connect.For example " Lee Steven ", determine the numerical characteristic coding of Steven earlier, if with " syllable " as feature unit, then characteristic letter is " STV ", and the characteristic of correspondence key is " 788 ", determines the numerical characteristic coding of " Lee " again, choose first letter of pinyin as feature unit, characteristic letter is " L ", and then the feature key is " 5 ", so the numerical characteristic of " Lee Steven " coding is " 7885 "; If select initial character as feature unit, characteristic letter is " 75 " so, owing to be that Chinese and English mixes, so intermediate demand uses switch key to connect as conversion, so the numerical characteristic of " Lee Steven " coding is " 7Fn5 " under this mode.In like manner, for " opening army 1 ", if select initial character as feature unit, then characteristic letter is " ZJ1 ", and the characteristic of correspondence key is " 951 ", and the numerical characteristic coding that constitutes at last is " 95Fn1 ".Switch key Fn for adopting between different information type input modes, can be "
*", non-numeric key such as " # ".
In addition, the present invention can be by the mode of " editor " certainly, and self-defined numerical characteristic coding makes that the data search of telecommunications book is more flexible, hommization and personalization.For example, if can not correctly distinguish phonetic alphabet " n " and " 1 " or other sounds, perhaps misread word, as " cyanines " are read as " green grass or young crops ", so can be according to user's oneself custom, the mode by " editor certainly " defines and suits the numerical characteristic coding that I use.
After having determined the constituted mode of numerical characteristic coding, when setting up digital record, need to increase a field and store the numerical characteristic coding, be used for matched and searched.
When needs are retrieved, according to encoding with the upper type input feature vector, polling routine compares coupling with the data of " numerical characteristic coding " field of every record in search procedure then, and with satisfactory record output, the information of output comprises whole or some field of the record that coupling is corresponding.
For the inquiry of " telecommunications book " in telephone set, the mobile phone, polling routine can also be exported its telephone number when hitting record, and directly telephone number is sent to the dial-up program in the telephone set, realizes dialing automatically.
The definition of use characteristic of the present invention unit and feature key, for a plurality of letters or the not further difference of feature unit of same numerical key representative, its operation all is by a numerical key, has brought operational greatly easy to the user.
The present invention also supports Chinese and English, numeral to mix and the numerical key inquiry of message identification such as icon, for example, the present invention can at " Lee Steven ", " opening army 1 ", " Zhou Runfa h " and
Deng inquiring about, scope and the practical value used have been increased greatly.In the not high field of ask for something precision, in the input of mobile communication book, inquiry, because the simplicity of its operation has very large practical value.Common cellphone subscriber for example, suppose its often people of contact have 50, if the people that to inquire about a name be three Chinese characters, its digit groups is 3; Numeric keypad previous generation literary name mother's numeral has 8; The space encoder that 3 bit digital groups constitute is 512 to the maximum, promptly searches for 50 in 512 records, and hit rate is still very high; Even run into the situation of repeated code, also can control by editor's mode certainly, perhaps utilize modes such as numeral, English character, icon to distinguish, add switch key " Fn ", also need 5 keys have only significantly reduced keystroke quantity, and are more convenient.
