Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a character identification support service system that cuts out a part of an external character integration work at the time of merger of municipalities and outsources the work to reduce the work load.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, for example, when the three cities A, B, and C are merged, as a method of unifying the external characters, the external characters registered by the three cities A, B, and C are extracted and visually checked. It was necessary to manually determine one of the character patterns having the highest priority and make it the representative font. In this case, the external character is usually manually created as a bit pattern. Therefore, bit patterns are usually slightly different among a plurality of local governments.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In this way, when systems are integrated due to merger of municipalities or the like, external characters used in each system are unified. At that time, in order to prevent double registration of external characters, it is checked whether or not the external characters of each system can be identified, and only one character that can be identified is registered in the new system.
However, as described above, if the integration work is performed manually, the amount of work is extremely large, so that the work accuracy is not good and the total cost is extremely high.
[0004]
An object of the present invention is to solve such a conventional problem and to prevent double registration of external characters when integrating systems in a municipal merger or the like, to determine whether external characters of each system can be identified with each other. It is an object of the present invention to provide a character identification support service system capable of reducing the cost required for the character identification work when checking whether a character is identified.
[0005]
Note that identification refers to comparing two characters and recognizing that these two characters are the same.
The identification ratio refers to a probability that two characters are compared and the two characters are the same.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
After the character for migration is extracted from each system, the character identification support service system of the present invention provides the black and white bitmap character set file with the unified format and the black and white bitmap character set file with the highest priority. The character set file identified by the former system after being sorted into the characters of the higher system and the characters of the lower priority system, the character set file regarded as the identification of the latter system, and If there is a system that outputs a specified number of characters and none of the output characters are included, the identification rate of the system that does not include the lower identification rate among the output characters An identification target extraction list file created by extracting an identification target on the basis of replacing with a high character, and a character in the identification target extraction list Perform identification confirmation, identification target extraction list screen that has been identified and identified, and for the identified identification target extraction list screen, a character set file that excludes the identified and recognized characters in the character set considered to be identification It is characterized by having.
[0007]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
(Flow of character identification support service)
FIG. 1 is an operation schematic diagram of a character identification support service system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 1, the work is shared between the user (municipalities) and the outsourcing side. The user first extracts the existing external character file 11 and passes it to the outsourcing side.
On the outsourcing side, (1) format is unified first. For example, the character font of each system is unified into a black and white bitmap file. Next, from the character set file 13 of the black-and-white bitmap file, the operation proceeds to (2) identification character distribution work. This is assigned to the character of the system with the highest priority (character set to be identified) 15 and the character of the system with lower priority (character set to be regarded as identification) 16 (14).
[0008]
Next, (3) identification targets are extracted (17), and an identification target extraction list file 18 is created.
Here, the extraction criterion for the identification target is to compare each character of the character set to be identified with all the characters of the character set to be identified, and use a distributed program for calculating the identification rate in order of decreasing the identification rate. A predetermined number of characters are output (displayed as comparison characters), and if there is a city character that does not include any of them (for example, only the character of city B is output based on city A, When the city C is not output, for example), the extracted characters are replaced with a character with a low identification rate and a character of a city not included in the extraction target (for example, city C in the above case) with a character with a high identification rate. In this way, the output for comparison can be displayed for all of B city, C city, and so on. The identification target extraction list file 18 created in this way is passed to the user.
This processing is stored in the identification target extraction list file 18 for the specified number of output characters. Note that the identification ratio refers to the probability that two characters are the same when these characters are compared.
[0009]
The user performs (4) identification confirmation (19). That is, the characters read from the identification target extraction list file 18 are displayed on the screen, the identification is confirmed by human eyes, and the characters identified as identification are marked. In addition, the inspection of the identification confirmation is performed on the screen.
On the user side, the same processing is repeated until there is no longer a character set regarded as identification. After deleting the marked characters, the user converts the format to the format shown in FIG.
[0010]
(Overview of identification confirmation work on the user side)
FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 are explanatory diagrams of the actual identification work, and show a method of integrating external characters among A city, B city, and C city.
FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of the first identification work (identification is performed with city B and city C based on city A), and all of the characters determined to be shifted are displayed on the left side, and characters not shifted on the right side. Is displayed. A comparison is made with the characters of City A and the characters of City B and City C, and the optimum character is selected and displayed. Check the same characters that you want to delete from the characters of city B and city C that are regarded as identification.
Here, for the transition determination character "Kyoto", "Behavior" or "Climbing" is displayed as a character similar to that of B city and C city. (That is, a request for deletion) is added to. In the same manner, "Treasure" of B city and "Treasure" of C city are displayed for "Treasure", and as a result of comparison, there is no request for deletion (o is not added).
[0011]
FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram of the second identification operation (identification with city C based on city B).
In the case of system integration associated with the merger of two municipalities, only one identification operation is required. In the case of system integration associated with the merger of three municipalities, the identification operation of A, B, and C, and B and Two times of identification work of C are required.
On the left side, 1600 characters for B city (those not deleted in the first operation) are sequentially displayed, and on the right side, characters of C city having a pattern similar to the character on the left side are sequentially displayed. A comparison is made between the characters in the city B and the characters in the city C, and the optimum character is selected and displayed. Then, the user selects the same character from the unselected characters of the city C to be deleted. In this case, “Jitsu” of C city is displayed for “Jitsu” of the shift determination character, and “Jitsu” of C city is displayed for “Sho”. "Sho" has no request for deletion and is not marked with a circle.
[0012]
(Detailed explanation of screen transition)
FIG. 4 is a flow chart of the character identification screen transition in the present invention, and FIGS. 5 to 9 are enlarged views of each screen in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 5, when the screen of the character identification system main menu is displayed, (1) format unification processing, (2) identification character distribution processing, (3) target output character number selection processing, (4) identification character exclusion processing, (5) The menu button of “End” is displayed. By pressing and selecting a desired button, a desired processing screen is displayed.
[0013]
First, when the format unifying process is selected on the screen of FIG. 4, the screen is changed to the format unifying screen of FIG.
The format unification screen has an input area for an existing external character file and its system name, and button areas for reference, registration, and return are arranged. When you operate the browse button, a window appears. Then, in the existing external character file input area, (1) input the existing external character file names one by one. Thus, (1) includes two functions. (2) Enter the system name before inputting the existing external character file. At the time of registration, an existing external character file name and system name are registered by selecting a registration button. When returning to the previous screen, the user selects the return button.
[0014]
Next, when the identification character distribution processing is selected on the screen of FIG. 4, the screen is transited to the identification character distribution screen of FIG.
The identification character distribution screen has an input area for the system name having the highest priority to identify, and buttons for registering and returning are arranged. At the time of the identification processing, the system name with the highest priority is selected. As described above, in the case of the merger of City A, City B, and City C, the system name of City A is selected.
[0015]
Next, when the target output character number selection processing is selected on the screen of FIG. 4, the screen is transited to the target output character number selection screen of FIG.
(1) Select the number of target output characters in the input area of the target output character number selection screen.
Buttons for registering and returning are arranged on the target result output destination selection screen. After the number of target output characters is selected, the selected number is registered by selecting a registration button. To return to the previous screen, select the return button.
[0016]
Next, when the identified character exclusion process is selected on the screen of FIG. 4, the screen is transited to the identified character exclusion screen of FIG.
The identification character exclusion screen is provided with an import button in order to store the characters after the exclusion processing in the identification target extraction list file 18. Further, when the operation is to be returned to the previous position, the return button area is selected. (1) When the capture button is pressed, the data is output to the identification target extraction list file 18.
[0017]
FIG. 10 is a format diagram of the existing external character file and the converted external character file.
Glyphs of commonly used characters are stored in a file in association with a character code. Therefore, when an external character is read from a file, it is read together with the associated character code. Examples of the file type include a bmp (bitmap) file, a TTF file, a TTE file, a bdf file, and a host character pattern file.
[0018]
FIG. 11 is a diagram of an identification target extraction list screen displayed when the number of target output characters is input on the target result output destination selection screen of FIG. In FIG. 11, the entered number of characters is displayed as a transition determination character.
With respect to the character “Shift” (the code is 59A1 in City A), “Shima” (69A1 in City B) and “Shima” (6CA1 in City B) are displayed as characters that do not transfer. The user compares the character of the city A with the character of the city B and selects it. That is, when it is determined that the character is the same as the transition determination character in the blank space below the character, the deletion request is given. Similarly, if "Kame" (A city 59A2) is compared with "Kame" (B city 69AA) and "niche" (C city 6CA4) and they are found to be the same, delete it. Add ○. The same processing is performed for “village”.
[0019]
FIG. 12 is a diagram of the identification target extraction list screen in which another character is displayed in FIG.
In this case as well, “Kyo” (B city 69A1) is displayed as a character object that does not shift with respect to the transition determination character “K” (A city 59A1). If the user determines in the margin column below the character that the character is the same as the transition determination character, he / she puts a check indicating that the user desires deletion. Similarly, for “p” (A city 59A2), “p” (B city 69AA) and “p” (C city 6CA3) are displayed as character objects that do not shift. In this case, no check is made. Similarly, for “beam” (A city 59A1), “drain” (C city 69A1) and “abaku” (C city 6CA1) are displayed as characters that do not shift. Also in this case, no check is made.
In this manner, on the screen, the non-migrated character target with respect to the determined character is compared, and if it is determined that the characters are the same, a checked symbol indicating a desire to delete is input in the margin in the lower column.
[0020]
FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a character set to be identified and a format example of a character set file to be identified.
The character set file 15 to be identified and the character set file 16 to be identified in FIG. 1 are both stored in a file format as shown in FIG.
The system discrimination code stores codes that belong to A city, B city, and C city, such as A, B, and C, and the character code in the system is added below the characters shown in FIGS. The character code is stored, and the pattern arrangement of the bitmap is stored as it is in the dot pattern storage file name.
