DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0014]
FIG. 1 shows a configuration example of a dictionary registration apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0015]
As shown in FIG. 1, the dictionary registration apparatus according to the present embodiment includes an input unit 1 for inputting data and instructions related to dictionary registration, a registration processing unit 3 for performing dictionary registration processing, and data about dictionary registration. And an output unit 5 for outputting instruction acceptance contents and the like, and a dictionary storage unit 7 for storing a dictionary. Further, the registration processing unit 3 includes a utilization information setting unit 31, and the utilization information setting unit 31 of the registration processing unit 3 further includes an original form buffer 311, a utilization type table 312, a utilization change module 313, and a utilization change form buffer 314. Including.
[0016]
Here, the dictionary stored in the dictionary storage unit 7 is a natural language processing dictionary. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that natural language processing registers utilization information.
[0017]
For example, when the natural language processing is machine translation processing, the natural language processing dictionary is a machine translation dictionary. In this case, the dictionary for machine translation includes, for example, information such as a first language word (headword) and its part of speech as a source word, and a second language word (translation) as a translated word and its part of speech. Information is registered.
[0018]
For example, when the natural language process is a spell check process, the natural language process dictionary is a spell check dictionary. In this case, for example, information such as a phrase in a certain language and its part of speech is registered in the spell check dictionary.
[0019]
Of course, there are various kinds of natural language processing and its dictionaries in addition to the above, and this embodiment can be applied to any natural language processing dictionary that registers utilization information. .
[0020]
In the registration processing unit 3 in FIG. 1, a setting processing unit for performing dictionary registration for items other than the utilization type is omitted. Further, any setting processing unit for registering a dictionary of items other than the utilization type can be used (a conventional means may be used). Also, in the following description, description of dictionary registration of items other than the usage type is omitted, and only the usage type dictionary registration is described.
[0021]
Here, for example, when the natural language processing deals with a plurality of languages such as machine translation processing, the utilization type registration method of the present embodiment to be described below is applied to both the first language and the second language. When applying, the utilization information setting unit 31 has a first language part and a second language part, or the registration processing unit 3 uses the first language utilization information setting part and the second language part. What is necessary is just to provide the utilization information setting part for languages. However, the utilization type registration method of the present embodiment can be applied to only some of the languages. In this case, the conventional utilization type registration method may be applied to other languages. In the following, description will be given of registration processing of a phrase utilization form related to English, taking English as an example of one language, but basically the same applies to other languages. In the following description, the case of setting the utilization form of the first language entry word of the machine translation dictionary will be described as an example. However, the case of setting the utilization form of the second language translation word of the machine translation dictionary, This is basically the same for other various settings, such as setting the utilization form of the target language in the check dictionary.
[0022]
Now, in the following, a detailed description will be given of the configuration and operation related to the process from inputting a utilization form to be registered in the dictionary to selecting and displaying information.
[0023]
In the case of this example, the dictionary stored in the dictionary storage unit 7 is a machine translation dictionary.
[0024]
In this specific example, the input unit 1 is used for inputting a headword or an instruction in the first language. For example, a keyboard, a voice input device, a mouse, or the like can be used.
[0025]
The registration processing unit 3 is for performing dictionary registration processing (registration processing for the machine translation dictionary in the case of this example), and the utilization information setting unit 31 uses words (books) input from the input unit 1. In the case of a specific example, utilization information is set for a headword of the first language).
[0026]
The original form buffer 311 of the utilization information setting unit 31 is a buffer that stores the original form input from the input unit 1.
[0027]
The utilization type table 312 is a table that summarizes the utilization types of utilization words.
[0028]
The utilization change module 313 is selected from the utilization type table 312 (input from the input unit 1) for the language (in this example, the first language entry word) held in the original buffer 311. Utilization changes depending on the value.
[0029]
The utilization variation buffer 314 is a buffer for storing the utilization variation generated by the utilization variation module 313 and providing it to the output unit 5.
[0030]
The display unit 5 outputs the contents of the original buffer 111, the options of the utilization type table 112, and the contents of the utilization variation buffer 114. For example, it can be configured using a display device, an audio output device, or the like.
[0031]
FIG. 2 shows a configuration example of the utilization type table 112. Here, the usage types of English verbs are shown as examples.
[0032]
The first row ([a] stage) of the utilization type table in FIG. 2 is a utilization type related to the third person singular present tense, [a-1] “add s to the end”, [a-2] “es at the end”. It shows that three types of “granting” and [a-3] “replace y at the end with ies” are prepared as options for the existing utilization types. “*” In the rightmost column indicates that [a−x] new utilization variation (irregular variation) can be input in addition to the existing utilization types. Note that the option [a-3] has a utilization application condition “original ending is y”.
[0033]
The second line (stage [b]) is a utilization type related to the present participle form, [b-1] “giving ending to ending”, [b-2] “replace ending e with ing”, [ b-3] “replace ee at the end of the word with ying” and [b-4] “repeat consonant at the end of the word to give ing” are prepared as options for the existing utilization types. “*” In the rightmost column indicates that [bx] new utilization variation (irregular variation) can be input in addition to the existing utilization types. The option [b-2] has a usage application condition of “original ending is e”, and the option [b-3] has a usage application condition of “original ending is ie”. Each has a usage application condition of “original ending is a consonant”.
[0034]
The third line ([c] stage) and the fourth line ([d] stage) are types of utilization related to the past tense and past participle form, [c-1] [d-1] “add ed to the end of the word” ", [C-2] [d-2]" Append d to end ", [c-3] [d-3]" Replace y at end with ied ", [c-4] [d-4] It shows that four types of “repeated consonant at the end of the word to give ed” are prepared as options for the existing utilization types. The “*” in the rightmost column indicates that [c−x] [d−x] new utilization variation forms (irregular variation forms) can be input in addition to the existing utilization types. It should be noted that the option [c-3] [d-3] has a utilization application condition “original form ending is y”, and the choice [c-4] [d-4] has “original form ending is a consonant”. Utilization application conditions are given respectively.
[0035]
In the present embodiment, the following two types are assumed as modes for registering utilization information of first language headwords when a first language headword is registered in the dictionary.
(1) The user inputs the language of the phrase to be registered, and selects and inputs a corresponding type from the choices of the existing usage change types. The system generates and displays a utilization change result. The user can not only confirm the displayed utilization change result but also edit the displayed utilization change result. When the user gives a registration instruction, the system registers the utilization change result held at that time in the dictionary.
(2) The user directly inputs the utilization variation form. When the user gives a registration instruction, the system registers the utilization form held at that time in the dictionary.
[0036]
FIG. 3 shows a display example of the initial state of the dictionary registration screen of the present embodiment. Here again, an example of registering an English verb is shown.
[0037]
In the example of FIG. 3, the upper left column is a headword input column. In this example, the verb verb can be entered.
[0038]
The upper right button is a registration button. Clicking the registration button gives an instruction to register the currently displayed data in the dictionary.
[0039]
In the second and subsequent levels, a choice field for selecting a desired existing utilization type (in the example of FIG. 3, third person singular present tense (three unit present), present participle, past tense, past participle) or direct character input ( ○ in the figure is a selection button), and a utilization change display input field (the rightmost blank) that doubles as an actual utilization change result display field and an input field.
[0040]
The selection button is selected when pressed in a non-selected state, and is selected when pressed in a selected state.
[0041]
FIG. 4 shows an example of registering an English verb “overwrite” in the dictionary registration apparatus shown in FIG.
[0042]
In the example of FIG. 3, enter “overwrite” in the headword entry field at the top, “send to ending” to use third person singular present tense, “replace e to ing to use current participle form” As a result of the selection (the corresponding selection button is pressed), utilization change results “overwrites” and “overwriting” corresponding to the selection are generated and displayed in the utilization change display input field.
[0043]
On the other hand, since the past tense and past participle forms are irregularly changed, direct input is selected, and “overwrote” and “overwriteten” are directly input in the utilization change display input field.
[0044]
Note that the selection button is a black circle, indicating that it has actually been selected.
[0045]
Here, after confirming that each data being displayed in each input column is correct, each data is registered when the registration button is clicked.
[0046]
The above is the basic operation.
[0047]
In the following, functions that are preferably provided will be described. The functions described below may have all or some of them as appropriate.
[0048]
(I) FIG. 5 shows the same contents as the example of FIG. 4, but is an example in which the original surface layer form and the utilization application conditions are collated so that options that conflict with each other cannot be selected. A portion corresponding to the selection button of the choice is not a circle but a cross means that it cannot be selected. Instead of displaying x, other methods may be used, for example, not displaying the selection button, or indicating that the selection button is semi-transparent and cannot be selected.
[0049]
Here, since the headword original form is “overwrite”, the third person singular current form utilization type option [a-3] “replacement y is replaced with ies”, the present participle form utilization type option [b-3] “end of word ie replace y with ying ”, [b-4]“ repeat consonant at the end of the word to give ing ”, past tense / past participle type choice [c-3]“ replace y at the end with ied ”, [C-4] “Condition of ending consonant characters and assigning ed” is incompatible with the application condition and the original form, so that they cannot be selected.
[0050]
(Ii) FIG. 6 shows an example in which selection of “past tense” is wrong in the same situation as FIG. Since “+ d (add d at the end of the word)” is selected as the past tense utilization type, the utilization change display input field is “overwritten”.
[0051]
Here, the utilization change display input field can be edited. For example, editing is not possible when the selection button for the utilization change display input field (direct character input selection button) is not selected, and editing is possible when the selection button for the utilization change display input field is selected (that is, Other selection buttons that have been in the selected state may be in a non-selected state) or can be edited even if the selection button in the utilization change display input field is not selected. When a selection button other than the selection button is selected, if the utilization change display input field is edited, the selection button in the utilization change display input field becomes the selected state (other selections that were in the selected state until then). The button may be in a non-selected state).
[0052]
FIG. 7 is a display example immediately after editing the utilization change display input field from FIG. When the past form utilization change display input field is corrected from “overwritten” to “overwrote”, the selection of “+ d (add d at the end of the word)” is canceled and changed to the situation in which the irregular change form is selected.
[0053]
FIGS. 6 and 7 are examples in the case where it is not possible to select an option in which the original surface layer form and the utilization application conditions contradict each other as shown in FIG. Is possible).
[0054]
(Iii) Contrary to the case of (ii) above, Fig. 8 shows that when the existing utilization type selection button is selected and the utilization form is generated, the display result of the utilization change display input field is edited. It is something that can not be done. Here, the selection button is not displayed and the italicized part indicates that editing cannot be performed. As a result of selecting the usage of the current simple participle and the present participle from the existing options, the utilization change result is displayed in the utilization change display input field, and the utilization change display input field cannot be modified. In this case, when the user selects the selection button of the utilization change display input field, the display content of the utilization change display input field may be cleared. In FIG. 8, as shown in FIG. 5, it may not be possible to select an option in which the original surface layer form and the utilization application condition contradict each other.
[0055]
Note that both the mode (ii) and the mode (iii) may be provided so that the user can set which mode to use.
[0056]
Of course, in addition to the above-described operation methods, various variations that improve user operability are possible.
[0057]
FIG. 9 shows an example of the flow of processing in this embodiment.
[0058]
In step S501, an input of the original form of a word to be registered (in this example, an English word) is accepted.
[0059]
In step S502, the contents are stored in the original buffer 111.
[0060]
In step S503, utilization type option data (for example, the selection button in FIG. 4) is initialized. For example, all the options may not be selected, or representative usage changes (“send is added to the ending” for the usage type related to the third person singular present tense, “ In the usage type related to the past tense and the past participle, “add ed to the ending”, etc.) may be selected.
[0061]
In step S504, the process branches depending on the input from the input unit 1. If selection of an existing utilization type option is input, the process branches to step S511. If a new utilization change option is input, the process branches to step S521, and the input / input to the utilization change display input field is entered. If it is corrected, the process branches to step S531, and if the registration button is clicked, the process branches to step S541.
[0062]
In step S511, the utilization change module 113 performs utilization change processing based on the contents of the original buffer 111 and the selection results of the options. In step S512, the result of utilization change processing is stored in the utilization change buffer 114. In step S513, the contents of the utilization variation buffer 114 are displayed in the corresponding utilization variation display input field.
[0063]
In step S521, the contents of the utilization variation buffer 114 are cleared. In step S522, an input in the utilization change display input field is accepted. In step S523, the character string is stored in the utilization variation buffer 114.
[0064]
In step S531, the input character string is stored in the utilization variation buffer 114. In step S532, the selection of the corresponding utilization change option is changed to a new utilization change [* -x].
[0065]
In step S541, the data set at that time is registered in the dictionary and the process ends.
[0066]
In the description so far, the configuration has been such that the option of the existing utilization type is provided for the rule variation form, and the option of the existing utilization type is not provided for the irregular variation form. Regarding the possible rule change forms (for example, the same form as the original form, etc.), a choice of an existing utilization type may be provided and the utilization form may be automatically generated.
