Abstract:
The invention relates to a system and method that models a user's interaction with a user interface. There is provided a data input system, comprising a user interface having a plurality of targets and being configured to receive user input. The system comprises a plurality of models, each of which relates previous user input events corresponding to a target to that target. An input probability generator is configured to generate, in association with the plurality of models, a probability that a user input event corresponds to a particular target. There is also provided a method of modelling a target of a user interface having a plurality of targets and being configured to receive input, by modelling for each target previous user input events which correspond to that target. Furthermore, there is provided a method of inputting data into a system comprising a user interface having a plurality of targets and being configured to receive input. The method comprises generating using an input probability generator in association with a plurality of models, each model relating previous input, events corresponding to a target to that target, a probability that a user input event corresponds to a particular target.
