Abstract

Every Chinese character belongs to a small graphic form group which is created with respect to the radical of the character instead of character components. Every small graphic form group is incorporated into higher-level groups, i.e. medium graphic form groups, in turn every medium graphic form group is incorporated into higher-level groups, i.e. large graphic form groups. Input guidance is provided according to this hierarchy concerning graphic form. More specifically, the large groups are presented and one of them is selected by the first keystroke, the medium groups are presented and one of them is selected by the second keystroke, and the small groups are presented and one of them to which the desired character for input belongs is selected by the third keystroke. In this fashion, three keystrokes to a numeric keypad efficiently narrows down the alternative characters for conversion.
