ABSTRACT:
A method and system for efficiently presenting a series of alternatives for a user's selection using adaptive learning is provided. In a preferred embodiment, a software facility receives a request to select an item from an identified group of alternatives. The facility presents items from the group of alternatives identified by the request in decreasing order of their likelihood of selection. The facility subsequently receives an indication of the alternative to select, and proceeds to select that alternative. In a further preferred embodiment, the items each correspond to a set of one or more characters that cannot be generated using an available keyboard, and, when the user uses the facility to select an item, the facility inputs the corresponding set of characters.
