CHARACTER INPUT SUPPORT DEVICE, PROGRAM, AND CHARACTER INPUT SUPPORT METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a character input support device ranking a character string having a frequently used meaning in the higher rank of input prediction candidates by summarizing frequencies of use for each group of character strings having the same meaning.

SOLUTION: The character input support device includes: an independent word extraction part 205 extracting an independent word from partial character string data; a first detection part 206 selecting partial character string data of a processing target from the partial character string data and detecting other partial character string data including the independent word included in the partial character string data of the processing target; a first selection part 207 selecting partial character string data from the detected other partial character string data and the partial character string data of the processing target according to the length or an appearance frequency of the partial character string data and storing the selected partial character string data as an input prediction candidate in a RAM 103; and a frequency recalculation part 204 calculating a total value of the appearance frequency of the partial character string data of the processing target and that of the detected other partial character string data and recording the calculated total value in the RAM 103 as an application frequency of the input prediction candidate.
