Human-To-Mobile Interfaces
First Claim
1. A method of character recognition for a personal computing device comprising a user interface capable of receiving inputs that are to be recognised through data input means which are receptive to keyed, tapped or a stylus input, said device being adapted to facilitate a reduction in the number of physical keying actions, tapping actions or gestures required to create a data string to less than the number of characters within said data string:
- a. storing a set of data strings within a multi-dimension vector each with a priority-indicator associated therewith, wherein the indicator is a measure of a plurality of derivatives associated with the data string;
b. recognising an event;
c. looking up the most likely subsequent data string to follow the event from the set of data strings within the multi-dimension vector based on one or more of the plurality of derivatives;
d. ordering the data strings for display based on the priority indicator of that data string;
e. if the required subsequent data string is included in the list selecting the required subsequent data string;
f. if the required subsequent data string is not included in the list entering a event and repeating steps b to e;
g. updating the priority indicator of the selected data string;
h. updating the set of data strings based on the updated priority indicator.

Abstract
A method of character recognition for a personal computing device comprising a user interface capable of receiving inputs that are to be recognised through data input means which are receptive to keyed, tapped or a stylus input, said device being adapted to facilitate a reduction in the number of physical keying actions, tapping actions or gestures required to create a data string to less than the number of characters within said data string: storing a set of data strings each with a priority indicator associated therewith, wherein the indicator is a measure of a plurality of derivatives associated with the data string; recognising an event; looking up the most likely subsequent data string to follow the event from the set of data strings based on one or more of the plurality of derivatives; ordering the data strings for display based on the priority indicator of that data string; if the required subsequent data string is included in the list selecting the required subsequent data string; if the required subsequent data string is not included in the list entering a event and repeating steps b to e; updating the priority indicator of the selected data string; updating the set of data strings based on the updated priority indicator.

13. A personal computing device interface system capable of receiving inputs that are to be recognised through data input means which are receptive to keyed, tapped or a stylus type input, said device being adapted to facilitate a reduction in the number of physical keying actions, tapping actions or gestures required to create a data string to less than the number of characters within said data string:
-
a. a memory for storing a set of data strings within a multi-dimension vector each with a priority indicator associated therewith, wherein the indicator is a measure of a plurality of derivatives associated with the data string; b. an event recognition module for recognising an event; c. means for looking up the most likely subsequent data string to follow the event from the set of data strings within the multi-dimension vector based on one or more of the plurality of derivatives; d. display means for displaying a list the most likely subsequent data string in an order based on the priority indicator of that data string; e. means for selecting the required subsequent data string if it is included in the list; f. data entry means for entering an event; g. means for updating the priority indicator of any selected data string and the set of data strings based on the updated priority indicator. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
