Abstract: An example method includes outputting a plurality of characters, receiving an input indicative of a slide gesture across one or more regions associated with a group of characters included in the plurality of characters, determining, based on an origination point and/or a speed of movement, whether the slide gesture represents a character string level selection or a character level selection, responsive to determining that the slide gesture represents the character string level selection, outputting a graphical selection of at least one character string included in the group of characters, such that the at least one character string is visually differentiated from any of the plurality of characters not included in the group of characters, and responsive to determining that the slide gesture represents the character level selection, outputting, in single character increments, a graphical selection of at least one character included in the group of characters.

Abstract: In some examples, a method includes outputting a graphical keyboard (120) for display and responsive to receiving an indication of a first input (124), determining a new character string that is not included in a language model. The method may include adding the new character string to the language model and associating a likelihood value with the new character string. The method may include, responsive to receiving an indication of a second input, predicting the new character string, and responsive to receiving an indication of a third input that rejects the new character string, decreasing the likelihood value associated with the new character string.

Abstract: Techniques are described for character deletion on a computing device that utilizes a gesture-based keyboard. The computing device includes a processor and at least one module operable by the processor to output, for display at a presence-sensitive display, a graphical keyboard comprising a plurality of keys and a text editor field. In response to receiving an indication of a gesture that comprises a first path, the module outputs a first character, based at least in part on the first path, associated with a first key and a second character associated with a second key. In response to determining that the gesture further comprises a second path that retraces at least a portion of the first path, the module removes the second character from the text editor field of the presence-sensitive display.

Abstract: In one example, a method includes detecting, by a computing device, at least one user contact with a presence-sensitive screen of the computing device to input one or more characters of an input string. The method also includes detecting, by the computing device, a subsequent user contact with the presence-sensitive screen. The method also includes detecting, by the computing device, a gesture at a region of the presence-sensitive screen that is associated with a terminator symbol while the subsequent user contact is maintained with the presence-sensitive screen. The method also includes adding, by the computing device, the terminator symbol to the input string when the gesture comprises a virtual key press gesture. The method also includes replacing, by the computing device, the input string with a predicted completed string for the input string when the gesture comprises a prediction completion gesture.

Abstract: A computing device outputs, for display, a virtual keyboard comprising a plurality of virtual keys. Furthermore, the computing device receives an indication of a first movement of an input object along a spatial path. The computing device determines, based on locations of the virtual keys and locations along the spatial path, a plurality of character strings. In response to determining that the first movement has ceased for at least a threshold amount of time, the computing device outputs, for display, the plurality of character strings. While the character strings are displayed, the computing device receives an indication of a second movement of the input object. The computing device selects, in response to the indication of the second movement, and based at least in part on a direction of the second movement of the input object, a particular character string from the plurality of character strings.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and corresponding apparatus or system for disambiguating touch-input based on variation in a characteristic such as speed or pressure along a touch-trail (20, 26). A computing system may detect a variation in a characteristic of a touch-trail, such as variation in speed of movement of touch along the touch-trail and/or a variation in pressure of touch along the touch-trail (step 52). Based on the detected variation, the computing system may determine an intended touch position represented by the trail, such as a landing position or lifting position for instance (step 54). And the computing system may take action based at least in part on that determined touch position (step 56).

Abstract: In general, aspects of this disclosure are directed to techniques for predictive text correction and completion for text entry using virtual keyboards on touch-sensitive displays. A user may be able to type on a representation of a virtual keyboard displayed on touch-sensitive displays by contacting representations of virtual keys included in the virtual keyboard, and the word the user intended to type on the virtual keyboard may be predicted and displayed in place of characters associated with the virtual keys actually contacted by the user. In some examples of the present disclosure, a virtual spacebar key included in the virtual keyboard may be treated in a probabilistic fashion to determine whether a contact received by the touch-sensitive display is intended to select the virtual spacebar key to perform an autocorrect or autocomplete function.

Abstract: In one example, a method may include outputting, by a computing device and for display, a graphical keyboard comprising a plurality of keys, and receiving an indication of a gesture. The method may include determining an alignment score that is based at least in part on a word prefix and an alignment point traversed by the gesture. The method may include determining at least one alternative character that is based at least in part on a misspelling that includes at least a portion of the word prefix. The method may include determining an alternative alignment score based at least in part on the alternative character; and outputting, by the computing device and for display, based at least in part on the alternative alignment score, a candidate word based at least in part on the alternative character.
