Abstract :
Using Thai virtual keyboard for social network function on a tablet-based device has proven to be inefficient. In this paper, we design a new layout for Thai virtual keyboard by applying constraints to genetic algorithm. Our experiment is validated with data collected from social network website. With Fitts´ law as our performance model, the result shows that the new Thai keyboard layout performs better than traditional layouts.
