Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, by a computing device, an indication of a user input entered at a location of a presence-sensitive screen; generating, by the computing device and based at least in part on the indication, a group of gesture events based on the indication of the user input, wherein at least two of the gesture events in the group of gesture events comprises a representation of a location; determining, by the computing device, a density of a portion of the group of gesture events, wherein the density indicates a quantity of gesture events associated with a region of the presence-sensitive screen over a time duration, and wherein the density further indicates a ratio between the quantity of gesture events and an area that bounds the locations of the gesture events in the portion of the group of gesture events; and responsive to determining that the density satisfies a threshold, modifying, by the computing device and based at least in part on the density, the group of gesture events.
