The present invention relates to a method and device for inputting a handset into a handset. [Prior art] Ideographic characters are usually poetic Asian languages such as Chinese and Japanese. The developers of the state machine are committed to designing methods and devices in the machine. Enter "70" into the handset = the conventional type for inputting data into the handset has only 12 to 24 keys. ^ ^, Enter the numbers from 1 to 9 and G. Small For the keyboard industry, 1G keys are used for two words on the handset and similar handsets: mobile phones, mobile phone readers, and readers. The handwriting recognition technology can also be applied in handsets for entering ideographic characters. ^ 了Enter ideographic characters through the keypad to the handheld manufacturer. Map the phonetic letters of the ideographic characters (e.g. Γ0 = mother of Chinese characters) or strokes to the keypad for entering digits.

Using an input method, press the small key = vertical key to enter the ideographic character. Phonetic alphabet, and choose to: The machine predicts and displays the ideographic character I based on the entered phonetic alphabet. The user can also enter the ideographic character by pressing the dial key 200538966 in the ideographic characters to be predicted and displayed by the handset based on the input strokes. A 0 or less, ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ phonetic letters and strokes of abbreviations are referred to as symbols. In order to speed up the process of inputting ideographic characters into the handset, one has been developed: an input method with a phrase prediction function. That is to say, after inputting the ideographic element, the handset predicts and displays several ideographic characters that can each form a phrase with the ideographic characters that have been rotated in turn. In this way, the user 2 simply selects the predicted and displayed ideographic characters to complete the entire short button, instead of entering the characters included in the phrase one by one. Take Chinese as an example, "Today" is a Chinese phrase. Enter "now" and the handset can automatically predict and display "day". Therefore, the user only selects "day," and the input of "today," can be completed. "Eating, is another: a Chinese language. After entering" Eating ", the handset can automatically predict and display" Eating ". In this way, the user can simply select" Eating "to complete the input of" Eating ". Only after the first character of the phrase has been entered, the existing method of entering ideographic characters with the phrase: test function will work. However, ideographic language sentences contain not only phrases, but also auxiliary characters. For example, in the Chinese sentence "Did you eat today?",, "Today" and dinner are phrases, and other characters are not phrases. Obviously, there are existing input ideographic characters with phrase prediction capabilities. The method only helps input less than half of the characters in a sentence. In addition, if a phrase can be entered directly through the input method, the phrase prediction function is almost useless. Also, entering punctuation is also difficult. Things to endure. Users usually have to choose a punctuation mark from multiple punctuation marks. 200538966 At this point, there is a need in the art to develop an invention that can quickly input ideographic characters and punctuation marks into a handheld computer. [Invention [Content] The object of the present invention is to provide a novel and convenient method and device for inputting ideographic characters and punctuation characters into a handset. In order to achieve the above objective, the present invention provides an ideographic character input to a handheld n The machine towel method is characterized by including the following steps: Pre-I, characters corresponding to symbols input by a user, for the user to choose ; Based on the previous ideographic characters that the user has selected, predicting the most likely ideographic characters that precede the ideographic character but cannot form a short line with the previous ideographic character for the user to select; and etc. # 述 The user has selected the ideographic characters input into the handheld device = invention further-provided—a device for inputting ideographic characters into a handheld machine, which is characterized by including: Means for the user to select an ideographic character corresponding to the input character; for predicting the most likely based on the previous ideographic character that the user has = after the previous ideographic character but cannot be compared with the previous An ideographic character is a device that is short of my ideographic characters for the user to choose; and the device user 机 ideographic character input μ, said handheld local Ming is also provided-a handheld device, which is characterized by: 200538966 a transition prediction A database for storing a plurality of ideographic character sequences, each of which includes a previous ideographic character and at least one most likely to follow the previous ideographic character but cannot be associated with The ideographic characters of the phrase forming the phrase; and a controller for querying the transition prediction database to find the ideographic characters whose previous ideographic characters are the same as the ideographic characters entered by the user Meta sequence. According to the method and device of the present invention, a phrase can be predicted automatically. In addition, an ideographic character that is most likely to follow the previous character but cannot form a phrase with the previous character can also be automatically predicted. . Punctuation marks can also be predicted automatically. All of these greatly improve the speed of inputting ideographic characters and punctuation marks into the handset. [Embodiment] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings Below: FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for inputting ideographic characters into a handset according to an embodiment of the present invention; in step 101, processing starts. In step 102, a symbol is received from an input element of the handset. For example, the handset may be a mobile phone, a PDA, or the like. For example, the input element may be a keypad or a scroll wheel mounted on the handset, or any other equivalent element for entering a symbol into the handset. In step 103, the flag is set to zero. This flag is used to decide whether to enable phrase prediction. See step lu and step 112. However, this flag is selected according to the needs, and the phrase prediction function (step 112) can be 200538966. If the phrase prediction function is only enabled under certain conditions σ > σ Enter the ideographic characters into the handset Method /, in step 104, determine "Cancel, whether you have already pressed the Wusi County of Step 104" &, if ν = ,, 〇 Fruit, go to Step 105, and in This step is processed. If the result of step ⑽ is "No", then proceed to step ^ bundle characters: 1; 6 "according to the received in step 102: and / or the phrase for the user to choose. According to the characters entered by the user ::: The detailed processing of the characters _: or phrases is well known in the art = table tolerance v step 1 07 'Determine whether the user has made the last name of 〇7 θ' ' π ”, if the result of the step is :: ,, if not, then wait in step 。. If the result of step 107, 疋 疋, go to step 108. In step 108, determine“ cancel If the result of pressing has been pressed, the result is "Yes,", then return to step ^, the result is "No," then go to Step ⑽. + Fruit step ⑽ In step 1G9, enter the user-selected ~ and 7 or phrases in step 1G7 into the handset. Then proceed to step u ^ child element in step m, according to the ideographic word 70 that has been entered in step 109 (ie, the user has, in step 107, predicted the ideographic character with the help of transition prediction (^ # Subπ) 'selection. ™ Transition prediction is used to base at least one ideographic character _ A "previous character") _ ideographic character and punctuation. The root n is 10 200538966 yuan. It predicts that it is most likely to follow the previous character but cannot be ideographic with the previous character. Also, it can also predict the punctuation that is most likely to follow the previous character 7L. . For example, if the previous character ^ ",, then the characters that can be output through transition prediction can include"? ","?, "And so on. The sequence of characters "Lebar is not a phrase in Chinese, but they often appear in sentences. / 果 先 刖 子 元 is"? ", Then the punctuation that can be predicted through transition prediction can include« "? ". In Chinese,"? ", Tong Dang appears at the end of the question. … S "In step 111, determine whether the flag is 0. If the result of step U1 = 9, no, go to step 113. If the result of step 111 is 疋 ', go back to step 112. ^ ㈣ 112, according to The two yuan entered into the handset in step 109 (that is, the characters entered by the user in step 107), predicting ideographic characters (such as Chinese characters) with the help of 2 $ go prediction, and displaying all Pre 'ideographic characters are available for users to choose from ... Shortgo prediction is a well-known technique for predicting ideographic characters based on at least one ideographic character (called "previously 7L"). Based on the previous character table, an ideographic character that can form a phrase with the previous character is predicted. For example, ‘if the previous character was“ ,, then you can predict by phrase ’.” The characters that can be output include “Solution”, “Get,”, etc. “Understanding”, “le ^ are phrases in Chinese. The order of step U0 and step m is not important, and it will not be the same as the 200538966 line. That is, the result of step ... step n ... at step 113 is "No", and no choice has been made. If the result of the step is "Yes," then V step 113 waits. If step 113, then proceed to step 114. In step 114, determine "say, mountain," and the result of step 114 is "yes", then go to "": : After being pressed. If the result of the step is "No", proceed to step n /. 102 ° If step 114 is in step 115, it is determined that the end time with $ + is predicted by phrase prediction (that is, if the character selected in = 13 is 115 in the social fruit | factory). If the result of the step is two, proceed to step 116. If step,, or fruit, go to step 117. Set it to 1㈣116 'and set the flag to zero. In step I7, the flag is set to tiH118 ', and the ideographic character selected by the user in step 113 is input into the handset. Then, proceed to step 110. Of course ', if the punctuation mark is selected by the user in step 113, the selected punctuation mark is input to step 102 in step 8. Fig. 2 shows the structure of the handset of the present invention thoughtlessly, which contains an element for inputting ideographic characters according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 2, 201 indicates a controller, 202 indicates a character prediction database, 203 indicates a phrase prediction database, 204 indicates a transition prediction database, and 205 indicates input elements such as a keypad or a scroll wheel. , 206 indicates 12 200538966 display, and 207 indicates output device. The controller 201 initially receives a symbol input by the user from the input device 205. The input device 205 may be, for example, a keypad, a scroll wheel, or any other equivalent element for inputting a symbol into a handset. The controller 201 then queries the character prediction database 202 to find the ideographic characters matching the ideographic characters received from the input device 205, and displays the matching ideographic characters on the display 206 for the user to select. If the user selects one of a plurality of ideographic characters displayed on the display 206, the controller 201 receives a selection from the input device 205 (for example, a digit associated with the selected ideographic character), and The output device is operated to output the selected ideographic character to the handset unit for which the input ideographic character method is enabled. Such elements may be, for example, a text message editor, a notebook, a phone book, a dictionary, and so on. Operation is well known in the art. If the controller 201 receives the input from the input device 205, the device 201 inquires about madness, attack, and so on. The meta-prediction database 202 usually stores symbol strings and corresponding characters in a table. Character prediction database 202 and operations for predicting characters based on symbols

It is more preferable to control the phrase in this way. The controller 201 predicts the database 203 in such a way as to make the phrase prediction database 203 to be used only when the user has selected the sub-element prediction database 202 or the transition prediction. The ideographic characters predicted by the database will not work until later. That is, if the user selects an ideographic character that has been predicted by the phrase prediction database 2G3, the controller 20 will not query the ideographic character in the phrase prediction database 203 again. Take Chinese short # Today "as an example. If the user selects" 今 ,,, then the phrase prediction database 203 predicts "day," and other Chinese characters. If the user further selects days to complete the input phrase "today ,," then The user selects a one-character prediction database 202 or a transition prediction database 204 to predict the table ~ the child controller 201 before querying the phrase prediction database. If the controller 201 receives a selection from the input device 205, the control f 201 also queries the transition prediction database 204 to find the most likely to follow the previous character but does not form a phrase with the W character Ideographic characters and punctuation marks most likely to follow previous characters, and unpredictable ideographic characters and punctuation marks are displayed on the display for users to choose. The transition prediction database 204 usually stores a combination of a plurality of columns and characters / punctuations frequently used in sentences in one table. Each meta-sequence contains-one previous character and at least one-most likely to follow the previous character 7L and the previous character constructs the remainder epoch. Each block = one previous character and at least one punctuation mark after 7L. A Chinese sentence Figure 3 shows the input process using the method and apparatus of the present invention. In Figure 3, suppose that the sequence of characters often used in Chinese sentences includes 14 200538966, including "Tianhuan", and "Mao" including "people, girls,", "have you", "?", ', Etc., And short-7 days, "eating", "understand,", "great,", etc. The above sequence is stored in the transition prediction database 2G4, and the above phrases are stored in the phrase prediction database 203. "Have you eaten today? ", The user first enters / pays the age (for example, a pinyin or Zhuyin symbol) and" present, "symbols. Then, the controller 20 predicts other possible characters of the upper spear by querying the phrase prediction database 203, and displays them on the display 206. The user can simply select from the display 2 through the input device 20 After selecting the day, the controller 201 queries the transition prediction data § -αpre 'to display the characters and other possible characters, and displays them on the second indicator 206. The user can simply select "eat" from the display 206 through the input device. After the grave chooses to eat, the controller 201 predicts "fan," and other possible characters by querying the phrase prediction data g5, and displays them on the Beibuqi 206. The user can simply pass The input device 205 selects "rice" from the display 206. After the meal is selected, the controller 201 predicts "τ ,, ^ ® and other possible characters by querying the transition prediction database 204 and displays them in the ',,' , Beibuqi on 206. The user can simply select "OK" from the display 206 through the input device 205. After selecting ‘‘ γ, the controller 201 queries the transition prediction database 204 for predictions and rules, and other possible words a, and displays them on 15 200538966 display 206. The controller 201 predicts the solution, derivation, and other possible characters by querying the phrase prediction database 203, and displays them on the display 206 ("Understand," and "Dead," are Chinese phrases). The user can simply select "?" Instead of "Solution" and "Get" from the display 20 through the input device 2205. After selecting, the controller 201 predicts "?" By querying the transition prediction database 204 "And other possible punctuation or ideographic characters' and display them on the display 206. The user can simply select"? "So the whole sentence" Did you eat today? " , It is entered into the handheld. The above example shows that if there is no transition prediction database 204, the user must enter the symbols "eat ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and, and enter the question mark"? ''. The function of the transition prediction database 204 prevents the user from inputting the symbols%,,, and "and entering a question mark"? "This significantly improves the input sentence" Have you eaten today? " ,,speed.
