A method of displaying tab titles in a computer user interface receives a request to display a new tab in a tab area having a length. The new tab has a width and the new tab has a title having a length. The method determines a number of tabs to be displayed in the area and determines if the number of tabs to be displayed multiplied by the tab width is greater than the length of the tab area. If so, the method sets the tab width equal to the length of the tab area divided by the number of tabs. The method determines if the length of the title is greater than the tab width. If so, the method determines if the title has any words in common with any other titles of tabs. If so, the method deletes the common words from the titles, and displays the titles with the deleted common words in the tabs. The method may set a maximum number of tabs to be displayed in the tab area. The maximum number of tabs may be determined by the length of the tab area and a minimum tab width. If the number of tabs is greater than the maximum number of tabs is to be displayed, the method collapses some of the tabs in to a tab of tabs.

System and method for improving data input by using word frequency to text predict input. Other systems and methods include analyzing words already contained in a document (e.g. spell checking and OCR) and using word frequency to create a proxy system to reduce the space required to store data, allowing for more efficient usage of storage and enhancing the embedded content of matrix codes. The system displays the most common words in a language based upon the previously entered or displayed word(s), or the previously entered or displayed character or characters. Words with the most common frequency of use with the prior word(s) are displayed in a table to enable the user to quickly select one of the displayed words for rapid data entry. The input device can be a touch-sensitive display or non-touch sensitive type device.

In a non-volatile memory, the displacement current generated in non-selected word lines that results when the voltage levels on an array's bit lines are changed can result in disturbs. Techniques for reducing these currents are presented. In a first aspect, the number of cells being simultaneously programmed on a word line is reduced. In a non-volatile memory where an array of memory cells is composed of a number of units, and the units are combined into planes that share common word lines, the simultaneous programming of units within the same plane is avoided. Multiple units may be programmed in parallel, but these are arranged to be in separate planes. This is done by selecting the number of units to be programmed in parallel and their order such that all the units programmed together are from distinct planes, by comparing the units to be programmed to see if any are from the same plane, or a combination of these. In a second, complementary aspect, the rate at which the voltage levels on the bit lines are changed is adjustable. By monitoring the frequency of disturbs, or based upon the device's application, the rate at which the bit line drivers change the bit line voltage is adjusted. This can be implemented by setting the rate externally, or by the controller based upon device performance and the amount of data error being generated.

The present invention employs a memory cell structure in that one end of a variable resistance element (1) for storing information by change of electric resistance is connected to a source of a selection transistor (2) to form a memory cell (3) and, in a memory cell array (4), a drain of the selection transistor (2) is connected to a common bit line (BL) in a column direction, the other end of the variable resistance element (1) is connected to a source line (SL) and a gate of the selection transistor (2) is connected to a common word line (WL) in a row direction. In the memory cell structure, an operation of resetting data stored in the memory cell (3) is carried out for each of sectors including the plural memory cells (3) commonly connected to the source line (SL).

The autonomous avatar driver is useful in association with language sources. A sourcer may receive dialog from the language source. It may also, in some embodiments, receive external data from data sources. A segmentor may convert characters, represent particles and split dialog. A parser may then apply a link grammar, analyze grammatical mood, tag the dialog and prune dialog variants. A semantic engine may lookup token frames, generate semantic lexicons and semantic networks, and resolve ambiguous co-references. An analytics engine may filter common words from dialog, analyze N-grams, count lemmatized words, and analyze nodes. A pragmatics analyzer may resolve slang, generate knowledge templates, group proper nouns and estimate affect of dialog. A recommender may generate tag clouds, cluster the language sources into neighborhoods, recommend social networking to individuals and businesses, and generate contextual advertising. Lastly, a response generator may generate responses for the autonomous avatar using the analyzed dialog. The response generator may also incorporate the generated recommendations.

A method of fabricating a phase-change memory cell is described. The cross-sectional area of a contact with a phase-change memory element within the cell is controlled by a first dimension of a bottom electrode and a second dimension controlled by an etch process. The contact area is a product of the first dimension and the second dimension. The method allows the formation of very small phase-change memory cells.

A method for correcting a short text message comprising the steps of: creating a table of common words and misspellings; identifying keypad used for sending the message, examining message for comprehensibility; identifying most likely error, substituting symbols based on a hierarchical system of shared keys followed by adjacent keys to hypothesize correction of the most likely error; examining hypothesized correction for comprehensibility, and repeating steps (c) to (f) until an understandable message is generated.

A voice transcription system employing a speech engine to transcribe spoken words, detects the spelled entry of words via keyboard or voice to invoke a database of common words attempting to complete the word before all the letters have been input. This database is separate from the database of words used by the speech engine. A voice level indicator is presented to the operator to help the operator keep his or her voice in the ideal range of the speech engine.

A specially-configured interactive user interface for use in eye typing takes the form of a three-layer arrangement that allows for controlling computer input with eye gazes. The three-layer arrangement includes an outer, rectangular ring of letters, displayed clockwise in alphabetical order (forming the first layer). A group of “frequently-used words” associated with the letters being typed forms an inner ring (and is defined as the second layer). This second layer of words is constantly updated as the user continues to enter text. The third layer is a central “open” portion of the interface and forms the typing space—the “text box” that will be filled as the user continues to type. A separate row of control/function keys (including mode-switching for upper case vs. lower case, numbers and punctuation) is positioned adjacent to the three-layer on-screen keyboard display.

The invention provides an input method and an input method system. The input method comprises the following steps that: when indicating signals used for indicating that a preset expansion word stock is started by the input method are identified, the preset expansion stock is started; the searching is carried out in the expansion word stock and the common word stock according to the user input codes received by the input method, and candidate words corresponding to the codes are obtained; and the candidate words corresponding to the codes are output. When the input method and the input method system are implemented, the expansion searching is carried out in the preset word stock, in addition, the common use word stock can also be compatible with the expansion word stock, and more special input requirements of users can be met.

A known method for selecting words (or word sequences), which is an important aspect of information retrieval, involves the problems of inability to eliminate high-frequency common words and of often arbitrary setting of the threshold value for dividing important and unimportant words. These problems are solved by normalizing the difference between the word distribution in a subset of all documents containing a word to be extracted (or a subset of said document set) and the word distribution in the set of all documents with the number of words in the said subset of all documents containing the word as a parameter, and the accuracy of support information retrieval is thereby enhanced.
