Abstract

The disclosure describes an overall system/method for text-input using a multimodal interface with a combination of speech recognition and text prediction. Specifically, an 'always listening' mode for entering words is combined with a push-to-speak mode for entering symbols and phrases. In addition, these two modes are further combined with keypad based text prediction. Finally, the overall user-interface of the proposed system is designed such that it enhances existing standard text-input methods; thereby minimizing the behavior change for mobile users.
