A mobile terminal including a voice receiving unit configured to receive input voice, a controller configured to convert the received input voice to text, a display configured to display the converted text, and an input unit configured to select a word included in the displayed converted text. Further, the controller is further configured to control the display to display a plurality of possible candidate words corresponding to the selected word in an arrangement in which a corresponding displayed candidate word is displayed with a proximity from the selected word that is based on how similar the corresponding candidate word is to the selected word.

There is disclosed an enhanced text entry system which uses word-level analysis to automatically correct inaccuracies in user keystroke entries on reduced keyboards such as those implemented on a touch-sensitive panel or display screen, or on mechanical keyboard systems. A method and system are defined which determine one or more alternate textual interpretations of each sequence of inputs detected within a designated auto-correcting keyboard region. The actual contact locations for the keystrokes may occur outside the boundaries of the specific keyboard key regions associated with the actual characters of the word interpretations proposed or offered for selection, where the distance from each contact location to each corresponding intended character may in general increase with the expected frequency of the intended word in the language or in a particular context. Likewise, in a mechanical keyboard system, the keys actuated may differ from the keys actually associated with the letters of the word interpretations. Each such sequence corresponds to a complete word, and the user can easily select the intended word from among the generated interpretations. Additionally, when the system cannot identify a sufficient number of likely word interpretation candidates of the same length as the input sequence, candidates are identified whose initial letters correspond to a likely interpretation of the input sequence. The approach utilizes the information contained in the entire sequence of keystrokes corresponding to a word in order to determine the user's likely intention for each character of the sequence. The system also accommodates punctuation characters such as hyphens or apostrophes that are commonly embedded in words such as hyphenated compounds and contractions in English, and characters with special diacritics such as are commonly found in various European languages, e.g., diacritic accent. Special functions may be applied depending on where the user touches the intended string in a displayed word selection list. Once the user selects the desired string, it is automatically “accepted” for output and the next input detected starts a new input sequence corresponding to the entry of a next word.

An association dictionary creation apparatus is provided that is capable of easily and efficiently creating an association dictionary suiting the user's taste. The association dictionary creation unit includes: a profile storage unit that stores a profile which is information regarding the user's taste; a word selection unit that determines, every predetermined time, a word from the profile stored in the profile storage unit as an associated word search word, and further, selects words, other than the associated word search word, included in the profile as the associated word candidates; and an association degree calculation unit that calculates the degree of association between the associated word search word and each associated word candidate word selected by the word selection unit with reference to the contents stored in the contents storage unit, and when the association degree is higher than a predetermined threshold value, sets the associated word search word and the associated word candidate word as the associated word pair and stores the associated word pair and the association degree in the association dictionary storage unit in association with each other.

A semiconductor memory device, capable of being accessed at a high speed, according to the present invention, is provided, and is configured with the changeover point in time between the pre-charge operation and a word line selection operation on the far-end side of the sense amplifier being earlier than that on the near-end side of it. There are provided word selection signal input buffer, block selection signal input buffer, digit selection signal input buffer on semiconductor chip, decoders, which decode the said signals, drivers for the output signal of each decoder, memory block, which is stored with information, and gate circuit, which selects a column of memory cells in a memory block. Drivers for the word selection signal and block selection signal are laid out in the middle of chip and near far-end side pre-charge unit, which is located the farthest from the sense amplifier (which is deployed in near-end side pre-charge unit.
