New Data on Text Entry with Multitap and T9 Sajida Sajida New Data on Text Entry with Multitap and T9 Sajida Sajida University of Tampere School of Information Sciences Interactive Technology M.Sc. thesis Supervisor: Poika Isokoski June 2012 University of Tampere School of Information Sciences Interactive Technology Sajida Sajida: New Data on Text Entry with Multitap and T9 M.Sc. thesis, 64 pages, 6 index + appendix pages June 2012 Abstract Mobile phone technology is advancing rapidly. Text entry on mobile devices is essential as more and more people are using mobile phones for the purpose of writing text messages. The need to make mobile devices as easy to use and as efficient as possible is more acute than ever. New methods of interaction are proposed but the old ones still stay as long as they provide users with some comfort and benefit which others lack. I conducted an experiment to compare the two well-known, and till recently, most widely used text entry methods for mobile phones, the multitap and T9. Sixteen participants in two groups, experienced and novice, transcribed phrases, and the speed and error rate were measured. Statistically significant effects of text entry method, experience, and their interaction were found for text entry rate. T9 users were faster than multitap users and experienced users faster than novice. No statistically significant effects were found for error rate. In comparison to earlier data on the performance of the multitap and T9, novice and experienced users of multitap and T9 performed better with overall 10.67 wpm vs 7.95 wpm for multitap group and 18.39 wpm vs 14.72 wpm for T9 group.

Among other things, not only did he offer me a topic, but also the software to run the experiment. He also helped in recruiting the participants for my experiment. I also thank all the participants who volunteered for the experiment and helped me towards the completion of my thesis. Another thanks goes to my family, especially my parents, for making me what I am. Their support and constant guidance are what I needed most and I got most. I would not have been able to do anything without their tireless effort for everything they have done for me. Last, but not least, I thank my partner for his love, help in working with software, and patience which made my work as easy as it could get. 1 Introduction Mobile phones have gone through enormous changes during the last two decades, not only in shape, size and other aspects of their physical appearance but also in their function. They are no longer used only for making and receiving calls but also for sharing pictures and videos using MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service), playing games, browsing websites, taking pictures or making videos through the built-in digital camera, playing music, GPS navigation and most of all, for textual communication using SMS (Short Message Service). Text entry on mobile phones started in the 1990’s, and in 1995 on average only 0.4 messages per GSM customer per month were sent. The situation changed, however, with the average number of messages reaching 35 per user per month by the end of 2000, [Wikipedia, 2012], and in 2010, 6.1 trillion text messages were sent around the world [Itu.int, 2010], which makes almost 96 messages per user per month. The enormous increase in the amount of text messaging on mobile phones opened a new area of research and focused the attention of researchers on developing better text entry methods for mobile phones. However, it was not easy to devise new methods of text entry on keypads small enough for mobile phones. This also gave rise to the need for inventing new and different types of keypads and key arrangements for mobile phones for the purpose of improved text entry, along with using speech and gestures for the same purpose. Despite advances in these new methods of text entry on mobile phones, physical touch-based, manual text entry techniques still dominate and are used on almost all mobile phones. 1 When developing new text entry methods, there is a need to identify which methods are better than others, hence requiring a comparison between the existing and newly developed methods. Without any data available about the efficiency of a particular method, it is hard to know if it is better, or good at all, to be adopted by users, as only experimental work can reveal many of the problems in user interfaces. The most common and adopted keypad used for mobile phones is the 12-key keypad, and the most widely used methods of text entry are multitap and T9 (the dictionary-based disambiguation method from Tegic Communications, Inc). Although there have been several other methods in use, or at least developed, such as LetterWise, TiltText and Twiddler Typing, which have been compared and evaluated empirically with either or both of these methods, to our surprise, there has not been much of a comparison between the two dominant, well known, and widely used text entry methods themselves. The only study evaluating the two methods against each other was conducted by James et al. [2001]. It obtained the performance data for text entry on mobile phones using the two methods, and compared it with the performance predictions based on two different mathematical models namely “keystroke level model” and “movement and linguistic model”. The result of the study concerning the performance data, however, showed some unexpected results. Two user groups were involved in the study, a group of novice and a group of experienced users. The mean overall text entry speed with the multitap method was unexpectedly lower for the expert group (7.93) than for the novice group (7.98). Moreover, the total number of errors committed by expert users using the multitap method was higher than that of the novice users, 116 and 65 respectively. These observations raise some doubts about the validity of the results which poses a need for further evaluation of the two methods between the two groups. Another motivation for the work in this thesis was the fact that old multitap and T9 data may not represent modern use cases. Users have gained experience in the course of 11 2 years, and any comparison based on these old data can be misleading. In order to have a better benchmark data to compare to, conducting a new experiment was essential.

  • KSPC (Keystrokes Per Character) As a Characteristic of Text Entry Techniques
    KSPC (Keystrokes per Character) as a Characteristic of Text Entry Techniques I. Scott MacKenzie Dept. of Computer Science York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada M3J 1P3 +1 416 736 2100 WQEGOIR^MI$EGQSVK Abstract. KSPC is the number of keystrokes, on average, to generate each character of text in a given language using a given text entry technique. We systematically describe the calculation of KSPC and provide examples across a variety of text entry techniques. Values for English range from about 10 for methods using only cursor keys and a SELECT key to about 0.5 for word prediction techniques. It is demonstrated that KSPC is useful for a priori analyses, thereby supporting the characterisation and comparison of text entry methods before labour-intensive implementations and evaluations. 1 Introduction An important research area in mobile computing is the development of efficient means of text entry. Interest is fueled by trends such as text messaging on mobile phones, two-way paging, and mobile web and email access. Coincident with this is the continued call in HCI for methods and models to make systems design tractable at the design and analysis stage [5]. This paper addresses these two themes. We propose a measure to characterise text entry techniques. It is calculated a priori, using a language model and a keystroke-level description of the technique. The measure is used to characterise and compare methods at the design stage, thus facilitating analyses prior to labour-intensive implementations and evaluations. 2 Keystrokes per Character (KSPC) KSPC is an acronym for keystrokes per character. It is the number of keystrokes required, on average, to generate a character of text for a given text entry technique in a given language.

Read Matthew Horton University of Central Lancashire University of Central Lancashire Preston UK PR1 2HE Preston UK PR1 2HE [email protected] [email protected] This paper explores text entry on a scanning ambiguous keyboard (SAK) and the Windows on- screen keyboard (OSK) operating in scanning mode. The SPACEBAR was used for physical input with both keyboards. Testing involved 12 participants entering five phrases of text with each keyboard. On entry speed, the means were 5.06 wpm for the SAK and 2.67 wpm for the OSK, thus revealing a significant speed advantage for the SAK. However, the character-level error rate of 13.3% for the SAK was significantly higher than the error rate of 2.4% for the OSK. On subjective preference, 7 of 12 participants preferred the Windows OSK over the SAK, citing familiarity with the QWERTY layout as the most common reason. However, participants appreciated the efficiency of the SAK keyboard. A limitation of the results is the small amount of text entered.

    Displaying Images on the SMART Sympodium Anything you can display on your computer monitor will be projected onto the SMART Sympodium when you are connected to the system. For example, you could display: Word Documents Images Pages on the Internet PowerPoint Presentations Statistical or Design Programs Touching the SMART Sympodium screen with the pen stylus is equivalent to clicking on your computer screen using your mouse. Tap once on the Sympodium for a single mouse click; tap twice on the Sympodium for a double click. Drawing on the Sympodium Screen Use the stylus attached to the SMART Sympodium to draw on the screen. Do not write on the SMART Sympodium screen with dry-erase markers or pens. Note that the stylus pen color is changeable. It will write in the color you select by pen color selection buttons located at the top of the Sympodium screen. Also note that the pen and mouse are interchangeable. However if you lay the pen on the screen,the mouse will not function properly. Always rest the pen near the inside bottom of the screen when not in use. Note the buttons at the bottom of the Sympodium panel. These are shortcuts to some of the Sympodium tools. By default, the Floating Tools are not active. To activate them, click on the Start Menu and then "SMART Board Tools". The toolbar will fade in on the left side of the screen. To customize the appearance of your tools: Click on the "Gear" icon at the bottom of the Floating Toolbar. Drag the desired tool onto the bar; likewise, drag the undesired tool away.

    Stylus Enhancement to Enrich Interaction with Computers Yu Suzuki, Kazuo Misue, and Jiro Tanaka Department of Computer Science, University of Tsukuba 1-1-1 Tennodai, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8573, Japan {suzuki,misue,jiro}@iplab.cs.tsukuba.ac.jp Abstract. We introduce a technique to enrich user interaction with a computer through a stylus. This technique allows a stylus to be manipulated in the air to operate applications in new ways. To translate the stylus manipulation into application behavior, we take an approach that we attach an accelerometer to the stylus. Such a stylus allows control through new operations like rolling and shaking, as well as through conventional operations like tapping or making strokes. An application can use these operations to switch modes or change parameters. We have implemented a number of applications, called the “Oh! Stylus Series,” that can be used with our proposed technique. Keywords: Stylus Enhancement, Interaction, Accelerometer, Behavior. 1 Introduction Computer operations based on a stylus, compared to those with a mouse, have the advantage of being direct and easy to understand. In terms of the interaction style, though, most stylus operations simply replace mouse operations, so these operations do not take advantage of all the ways a pen-shaped device can be handled. Potential interface techniques have not been realized because computers cannot detect stylus positions and movements when a conventional stylus is not touching the display. Our goal is to make pen-based applications more useful by enabling a computer to detect such manipulations of a stylus and use them to govern applications run on the computer.

  • Neonatal Intubation Simulation with Virtual Reality and Haptic Feedback
    Neonatal Intubation Simulation with Virtual Reality and Haptic Feedback BME 400 University of Wisconsin Madison Department of Biomedical Engineering October 10th, 2018 Team Members: Team Leader: Carter Griest ​ Communicator: Isaac Hale ​ BSAC: Sara Martin ​ BPAG: Jessi Kelley ​ BWIG: Joey Campagna ​ Advisor: Beth Meyerand (Medical Imaging) ​ Clients: Dr. Ryan McAdams and Dr. Brandon Tomlin ​ Abstract Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), a neonatal disease characterized by difficulty breathing, is remarkably common among premature infants, affecting up to 60% of the population. Patient outcomes resulting from RDS are undesirably poor. Neonatal intubation, the primary treatment for RDS, is an extremely difficult procedure to perform. Unsatisfactory patient outcomes are in part due to ineffective training methods, which include video instruction and intubation performed on mannequins. A more realistic training method that better replicates the procedure’s technical challenges and stressful nature would enhance physician competency, resulting in improved clinical outcomes. Virtual reality (VR) is an innovative tool becoming increasingly used in the medical field, particularly for simulations. VR provides a means by which individuals can be visually and acoustically immersed in a non-physical, yet responsive, environment. Via the incorporation of haptic feedback devices, virtual simulations can include somatosensory feedback, greatly increasing simulation realism. Cutting edge medical VR simulations with haptic feedback already exist and represent the future of medical training. Integration of a well-designed virtual environment with haptic devices that imitate a neonatal intubation procedure would provide a more effective means of training. Currently, the simulation includes a prototype operating room, and beginnings of a 3D replication of a neonate and upper respiratory anatomy.
