In our research, we looked at how different approaches to two of these strategies influence the usefulness of predictive text. These reflect the way the user engages with predictive text – or their strategies, if you like. To drive AI forward, teach computers to play old-school text adventure gamesīeyond these, there’s a set of parameters which are less clear. We fixed this at 0.45 seconds, again based on existing data. The second fundamental parameter is the average time it takes a user to look at a predictive text suggestion and select it. We estimated this at 0.26 seconds, based on earlier research. The first is the average time it takes a user to hit a key on the keyboard (essentially a measure of their typing speed). We built a couple of fundamental parameters associated with predictive text performance into our simulation. We combined some of these conditions, or parameters, to simulate a large number of different scenarios and therefore determine when predictive text is effective – and when it’s not.
In my most recent study on this topic, a colleague and I explored the conditions that determine whether predictive text is effective. The idea seems to make sense: if the system can predict your intended word before you type it, this should save you time. It’s interesting to consider the poor correlation between predictive text and typing performance. But why? VAKS-Stock Agency/Shutterstock Breaking it down Since 2020 Yukon uses UTC-7h or Yukon Standard Time all year round.Research has shown using predictive text doesn’t improve typing speed. Southampton Island remains on Eastern Standard time all year long.
Nunavut covers 3 time zones and all zones change at 02:00 local time. Areas around Lloydminster are in the Mountain Time zone and change at 2:00 a.m. Most of Saskatchewan uses Central Standard time all year round. The areas of Ontario, west of 90° west longitude, are in the Central Time zone and change at 2:00 a.m.
Return to first footnote 2 referrer Footnote 3 The areas of Québec, east of 63° west longitude, do not change to daylight time and remain on Atlantic Standard time all year round. Prior to November 2011, Newfoundland changed time at 00:01 local time.
#A word for saving time serial number#
(This has been denoted as serial number #07 as is transmitted in CHU code.) Province/Territory The time zone maps and the dates listed below have been in effect since 2020. Exceptions may exist in certain municipalities. When does daylight saving time start and end?ĭaylight saving time in Canada is determined by provincial legislation. These boundaries and changeover dates have serial number 07, broadcast in computer readable form on short wave station CHU along with Canada's official time reference UTC (NRC): Coordinated Universal Time, the modern implementation of Greenwich Time.Ī major change in official time practice will be given a new serial number and documented here. Starting in 2007, clocks following the new North American standard for Daylight Saving Time are to be turned forward by one hour on the second Sunday in March and turned back on the first Sunday of November. In Canada, Time Zones and Daylight Saving Time usually have been regulated by provincial and territorial governments. The times for the start and end of Daylight saving time in Canadian time zones can be found here.
