It is to be understood that the data so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein, and that "first", "second" etc. The objects are usually of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object may be one or more than one. In addition, "and/or" in the description and claims indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character "/" generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

The input method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to a scenario where a user uses an input method to input.

Exemplarily, for the scenario where the user uses the input method to input, in the related art, as shown in FIG. 1 , the user can use the input method to communicate with others in the chat interface 20, when there are many types of content input by the user. , users need to frequently switch between multiple keyboards. For example, taking the content entered by the user "My email address is yz6008@xxx.com; the contact number is 1770000****" as an example, the user needs to switch back and forth between the Pinyin input keyboard, the English input keyboard and the numeric input keyboard, The operation process is cumbersome, which greatly affects the user's input speed.

In response to this problem, in the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device obtains information such as the user's input content and input type by monitoring the user's input behavior, and then predicts the content to be input by the user according to the above information, and calculates the input content of the user. The current keyboard is switched to the keyboard corresponding to the content to be input by the user, so as to achieve the purpose of automatically switching the keyboard, avoid frequent switching of the keyboard by the user, and reduce the operation steps of the user.

First embodiment:

The input method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments and application scenarios with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 2, an input method provided by an embodiment of the present application may include the following steps 201 to 203:

Step 201: The input device receives a first input from a user on a first keyboard.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first input may be received by the input device when monitoring the user's input behavior on the input keyboard, and the monitoring behavior may be periodic or real-time.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first keyboard may be any one of a pinyin input keyboard, an English input keyboard, a symbol input keyboard, a number input keyboard, and a handwriting input keyboard.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first input may include at least one of the following: user's input content, the type of user's input content, and other operations performed by the user on the above-mentioned first keyboard. Specifically, the above-mentioned other operations may include: the user's input of the function keys on the first keyboard, or the user's behavior of suspending the input after the user's input on the above-mentioned first keyboard, and the like.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first input may be voice input or touch input, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application, and all belong to the protection scope of the embodiment of the present application.

Step 202: The input device determines a second keyboard that matches the first input content of the first input when the first input satisfies the first preset condition.

Exemplarily, the first preset condition may include at least one of the following: the input content of the first input matches the preset content, and the number of consecutive inputs of the same type of input content in the input content reaches the preset number of times of input. , no new input is received within a preset time after the last input of the first input.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned first preset conditions include but are not limited to the above-mentioned conditions. In the embodiment of the present application, the input device determines the keyboard that the user wants to switch according to the user's input behavior, and those skilled in the art can formulate the keyboard according to the actual situation. Any condition or toggle rule.

Exemplarily, after detecting that the user's first input satisfies the first preset condition, the input device determines that the user wants to switch keyboards, and determines a second keyboard corresponding to the first input content of the first input. The first input corresponds to a second keyboard. That is, the user's first input satisfies the condition for the input device to switch the keyboard.

Exemplarily, similar to the first keyboard, the above-mentioned second keyboard can also be any one of a pinyin input keyboard, an English input keyboard, a symbol input keyboard, a numeric input keyboard and a handwriting input keyboard:

Step 203: The input device updates and displays the first keyboard as the second keyboard.

Exemplarily, after the input device determines the second keyboard corresponding to the first input according to the first input of the user, the input device updates and displays the first keyboard as the second keyboard.

It should be noted that when the input device updates and displays the first keyboard as the second keyboard, the type of the first keyboard is not limited. and the second keyboard can be different keyboards.

For example, with reference to FIG. 2, as shown in (A) of FIG. 3, when the user's input content is "the contact number is 1770000****" and the user completes the input of "the contact number is" through the first keyboard 22a, input The device determines that the user is going to input a phone number, and the phone number is in numeric format, and at this time, as shown in FIG.

In this way, by receiving the user's first input on the first keyboard, and when the user's first input satisfies the first preset condition, the second keyboard that matches the first content of the first input is determined, and then, The first keyboard is updated and displayed as the second keyboard, when it is determined that the user needs to switch the keyboard, the user can switch the keyboard, avoid the user frequently switching the keyboard during the input process, and reduce the operation steps of the input process.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, when the above-mentioned first prediction condition is that the input content of the above-mentioned first input matches the preset content, the input device can predict the content to be input by the user through the content input by the user, and then The keyboard corresponding to the predicted input content is determined as the second keyboard.

Exemplarily, the above step 202 may include the following steps 202a1 and 202a2:

Step 202a1, the input device predicts the second input content of the user after the first input based on a preset method.

The above preset method includes at least one of the following: whether the first input content matches a regular expression, and whether the first input content matches a high-frequency vocabulary input by the user.

Exemplarily, when the first input content matches the regular expression, the input device may predict the user's second input content based on the expression matching the first input content, and determine the second keyboard. Alternatively, the input device may also compare the first input content with the input content when the user uses the input method in daily life, predict the content to be input by the user according to the comparison result, and then determine the second keyboard.

Step 202a2: The input device determines the keyboard corresponding to the second input content as the second keyboard.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned second input content may be determined according to the user's input habit, or may be determined according to the big data analysis result of the input content of other users. For example, when the user's input content is "my contact number is" (that is, the above-mentioned first input content), the input device predicts the content that the user wants to input in digital format according to the input content (that is, the above-mentioned second input content), After that, the input device updates and displays the first keyboard as a numeric keyboard to facilitate user input.

Exemplarily, the input device may preferentially match the content input by the user locally through a regular expression, and if the matching fails, the content input by the user may be matched with the data on the server. After successful matching, the first keyboard is updated and displayed as a second keyboard corresponding to the second input content.

In this way, the input device can predict the content to be input by the user according to the content currently input by the user, and then determine the second keyboard according to the predicted content.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, in the case that the input times of the user inputting the same type of input content continuously reaches the preset input times, the input device may also be triggered to switch the keyboard.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned first input may include at least one continuous touch input; the above-mentioned first input content may include: a preset number of target input contents input by the at least one continuous touch input.

Exemplarily, the above step 202 may include the following step 202b:

Step 202b, the input device determines the keyboard corresponding to the above target input content as the second keyboard.

Exemplarily, the above-mentioned target content may include continuously clicking a backspace key for a preset number of times, or may further include clicking a number key continuously for a preset number of times.

Exemplarily, in the case that the above-mentioned target content includes consecutively clicking the backspace key for a preset number of times, the above-mentioned step 202 may include the following step 202c1:

Step 202c1: In the case that the above-mentioned first input includes continuously clicking the backspace key for a preset number of times, determine the handwriting input keyboard as the second keyboard.

In an example, when the user uses the first keyboard to input, if the user continuously performs input operations but does not select any candidate, and the user continuously clicks the backspace key for multiple times after the above input operation, then It means that the user may not know the pinyin of the text to be input, and the text cannot be successfully input by using the first input keyboard. In this case, the input device can switch the above-mentioned first keyboard to a handwriting input keyboard. Specifically, the above-mentioned first input keyboard may be a Pinyin input keyboard, a Wubi input keyboard, or an input keyboard in other languages.

Exemplarily, in the case that the above-mentioned target content includes consecutively clicking a number button for a preset number of times, the above-mentioned step 202 may include the following step 202c2:

Step 202c2: In the case that the first keyboard is a combination keyboard, and the first input includes consecutively inputting numbers for a preset number of times, the input device determines the number input keyboard as the second keyboard.

Wherein, the above-mentioned combined keyboard includes any one of the following: numeric keys and English keys, numeric keys and pinyin keys.

Exemplarily, the preset times in the above steps 202c1 and 202c2 may be the same or different.

In another example, when the user uses the first keyboard for input, if the user continuously inputs multiple numbers, it means that the user may be inputting an ID number or a mobile phone number, and it is inconvenient for the user to input numbers on the first keyboard. At this time, the input device switches the above-mentioned first keyboard to a numeric input keyboard, which is convenient for the user to input. Specifically, the above-mentioned first keyboard can be a combination keyboard. Since the combination keyboard has many key positions and the response area of each key is small, it is not very convenient for the user to input numbers on the combination keyboard, and it is easy to make input errors. Happening.

In this way, the input device can determine the second keyboard corresponding to the input behavior according to the user's input behavior on the first keyboard, and perform intelligent switching to facilitate user input.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, in order to facilitate user input, after switching the first keyboard to the second keyboard, the input device can also switch the second keyboard back to the first keyboard under the condition that a predetermined condition is satisfied.

Exemplarily, after the above step 203, the input method provided by this embodiment of the present application may further include the following steps 204 and 205:

Step 204: The input device receives the second input from the user on the second keyboard.

Step 205: The input device updates and displays the second keyboard as the first keyboard when the second input satisfies the second preset condition.

Wherein, the second preset condition includes any one of the following: no new touch input is received within a preset time after the last touch input of the second input, and the second input includes at least one touch input , the input content of the second input matches the preset content.

Exemplarily, for Chinese input, since the user inputs on the Pinyin input keyboard in most cases, when the input device receives a new input within a preset time after the second input is completed, or, the above-mentioned When the input content of the second input matches the preset content, it is determined that the user has finished inputting on the second keyboard, and the input device can update the second keyboard to display the first keyboard.

For example, when the input device predicts that the user will input a mobile phone number, the first keyboard is switched to a numeric input keyboard, and then, when the input device detects that the user has completed inputting the mobile phone number, the numeric input keyboard can be switched to the first input keyboard.

In this way, the input device can switch the keyboard to the original keyboard after switching the keyboard and after the user completes the input on the switched keyboard, thereby reducing the operation steps of the user.

In the input method provided by the embodiment of the present application, by receiving the first input of the user on the first keyboard, and in the case that the first input of the user satisfies the first preset condition, it is determined that the first content of the first input matches the first content After that, the first keyboard is updated and displayed as the second keyboard, which can help the user to switch the keyboard when it is determined that the user needs to switch the keyboard. Afterwards, under the condition that the second preset condition is satisfied, the input device can also be switched from the second keyboard to the first keyboard, which avoids the user from frequently switching keyboards during the input process, and reduces the operation steps of the input process.
