The invention discloses a reduced spelling and full spelling compatible
input method system and method based on
lexicon expansion, and belongs to the technical field of computer input methods. Aiming at the problems of low full spelling input efficiency, high binary spelling learning cost, poor simple spelling practicability, insufficient mixed input support, strong
system invasiveness and the like in the existing
pinyin input method, the method comprises the following steps: defining a spelling reduction rule of initial consonants, final consonants and intermediate and final consonants to replace the initial consonants, the final consonants and the intermediate and final consonants; and generating four input forms of full spelling, reduced spelling, initial full spelling + final reduced spelling, initial reduced spelling + final full spelling for each character / word. The
system comprises a
lexicon processing engine, a
pinyin verification module, a polyphone processor and a
lexicon deployment module, an original full-spelling lexicon is
read through an automatic program, a
variant form is generated by applying a spelling reduction rule, and the
variant form is stored in a new lexicon after Chinese character respelling
verification. According to the method, a core program of the
input method does not need to be modified, and a mixed input mode of complete compatibility and arbitrary combination of reduced spelling and full spelling can be realized. Tests show that after the spelling reduction rule is applied to 8560
Chinese characters in the eleventh version of the Xinhua dictionary, the number of keystrokes is reduced by 2584, and the efficiency is improved by 9.8%. The method has the advantages of
high input efficiency, zero learning cost, multi-platform compatibility and the like, and can be widely applied to text input optimization of various scenes such as mobile equipment, desktop systems, smart televisions and the like.
