Virtual keyboard layout optimization

Siddharth Jain, Samit Bhattacharya · 2010

The use of virtual keyboards is becoming ubiquitous with increasing use in mobile devices and touch-screens. Till now the research has mainly focused on developing layouts which support high typing speed, but the error aspect has been largely ignored. This research aims at developing a novel error model which relates accuracy with a given layout using the distance between keys. The main idea here is that the error model should predict the error rate by the layout specification alone.
