Multiple-input handwriting recognition system and measure thereof
Disclosed is a handwriting recognition system with a plurality of input modes, including a storage unit, a touch screen display unit, and a processing unit. The storage unit stores character fonts; each of the character fonts corresponds to at least one of the input modes. The touch screen display unit includes an input panel having at least two input areas located thereon; each of the areas inputs data in one of the input modes. The processing unit judges an input set of touch signals to recognize a character input by handwriting in one of the input modes, according to a position on which one of the input areas, which position corresponds to at least one of the set of touch signals. The character is represented by the set of touch signals. A handwriting recognition method applicable to an electronic apparatus with a plurality of input modes is also provided.
1. A handwriting recognition system with a plurality of input modes, comprising:
a storage unit for storing a plurality of character fonts, each of the character fonts corresponding to at least one of the input modes;
a touch screen display unit, comprising an input panel, wherein the input panel has at least two input areas located thereon, each of the areas for inputting data in one of the input modes; and
a processing unit configured to conduct judging an input set of touch signals to recognize a character input by handwriting in one of the input modes, according to a position on which of the input areas, with the position corresponding to at least one of the set of touch signals, and the character being represented by the set of touch signals;
wherein the touch screen display unit further comprises a display panel, and the processing unit is configured to conduct displaying at least one of the recognized characters, upon recognizing the characters, on the display panel in an order of descending frequencies respectively with which the characters were input.
2. The handwriting recognition system of claim 1 , wherein said at least one touch signal is first in the set of touch signals.
3. The handwriting recognition system of claim 1 , wherein the processing unit is configured to recognize the character according to positions on which of the input areas, with the positions corresponding to at least a plurality among the set of touch signals.
4. The handwriting recognition system of claim 1 , wherein the processing unit is configured to recognize a character input by handwriting in one of the input modes, according to at least a position on two of the input areas, with said at least a position corresponding to at least one of the set of touch signals.
5. The handwriting recognition system of claim 1 , wherein the character fonts comprise a Chinese character font, an uppercase English letter font, a lowercase English letter font, a numeral font, or a symbol font.
6. A handwriting recognition method applicable to an electronic apparatus with a plurality of input modes, the electronic apparatus having a storage unit and a touch screen display unit, wherein the storage unit is for storing a plurality of character fonts, each of the character fonts corresponds to at least one of the input modes, the touch display unit has at least two input areas, each of the areas is for inputting data in one of the input modes, and the handwriting recognition method comprises:
receiving an input set of touch signals at the touch screen display unit; and
judging an input set of touch signals to recognize a character input by handwriting in one of the input modes, according to a position on which of the input areas, with the position corresponding to at least one of the set of touch signals, wherein the character is represented by the set of touch signals;
wherein at least one candidate character selected from the plurality of character fonts corresponding to one of the input mode is arranged in a candidate character selection area according to an order of descending frequencies of each character fonts.
7. The handwriting recognition method of claim 6 , wherein said at least one touch signal is first in the set of touch signals.
8. The handwriting recognition method of claim 6 , wherein the step of judging to recognize a character further comprises recognizing a character according to positions on which of the input areas, with the positions corresponding to at least a plurality among the set of touch signals.
9. The handwriting recognition method of claim 6 , wherein the step of judging to recognize a character further comprises recognizing a character input by handwriting in one of the input modes, according to at least a position on two of the input areas, with said at least a position corresponding to at least one of the set of touch signals.
