A method, device and input method system for automatic character supplementation

Abstract

The invention provides an automatic character supplementation method, an automatic character supplementation device and an input method system. The method comprises the following steps of: acquiring a to-be-predicted segment to be predicted from characters input by a user, wherein the characters input by the user comprise a non-supplementary part and the to-be-predicted segment to be supplemented; matching and acquiring a corresponding supplementation result for the to-be-predicted segment; and combining the non-supplementary part and the supplementation result, and outputting a combination result. By the method, the device and the system, the segment to be supplemented can be found from the characters input by the user, namely supplementation is performed on the characters after a certain position of the characters input by the user as the to-be-predicted segment or on the characters between certain two positions of the characters input by the user as the to-be-predicted segment rather than simply from the beginning of the characters input by the user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of input methods, in particular to a method, device and input method system for automatic character supplementation. Background technique [0002] If the user wants to input an English word, he needs to input each letter of the word, so it is a very troublesome thing; in view of the above situation, many input method software provide English completion function, that is, when the user inputs the preceding word When there are several letters, the software will prompt the words starting with these letters, so that the user can choose directly; in this way, the user does not need to input all the letters of the word, which can reduce the number of keystrokes, thereby improving the input efficiency; at the same time, for some difficult For memorized words, the user does not need to input the entire content of the word, which improves the accuracy of word input. [0003] refer to figure 1 , when the user enters...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] Some commonly used compound words are stored in the general dictionary, such as secondhand, handwriting, software, etc. However, the above-mentioned compound words, such as goshopping, crossrainbow, NewLinePoint, etc., are not often used because they are used to express meaning in special occasions , so it usually does not appear directly in the general dictionary; in this way, when the user enters the prefix goshop (the input character), the traditional English completion technology cannot find the word starting with the above-mentioned "input character" from the dictionary, resulting in Completion failed
