Optimizing Touchscreen Keyboards for Gesture Typing
2015
Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems - CHI '15
Despite its growing popularity, gesture typing suffers from a major problem not present in touch typing: gesture ambiguity on the Qwerty keyboard. By applying rigorous mathematical optimization methods, this paper systematically investigates the optimization space related to the accuracy, speed, and Qwerty similarity of a gesture typing keyboard. Our investigation shows that optimizing the layout for gesture clarity (a metric measuring how unique word gestures are on a keyboard) drastically
