Description

  The present invention relates to a translation processing program that performs automatic translation and a translation system that uses automatic translation.

  Conventionally, translated words obtained by automatic translation often do not meet the expectations of the user when the translation system in the apparatus that performs the translation process is in the initial state.

  For example, a translation system may use a basic dictionary (a wide range of common words are registered) or a technical term dictionary in which technical terms are registered for the word “pen” in Japanese. Used to output the translation “Pen”.

  However, the translation required by each user is different, and each user does not necessarily obtain the translation desired by the user.

  Therefore, there is a user dictionary in which words can be arbitrarily registered in the translation system in order to bring the translated words closer to the user's expectations. A user cannot register words in the basic dictionary and technical term dictionary, but can add words to the user dictionary.

  Patent Document 1 discloses a technique in which a server that provides automatic translation to a terminal includes a user dictionary, and the terminal transmits a word to be registered in the user dictionary.

  The translation engine creates a translation as expected by the user by using the user dictionary with priority over the word to be translated.

JP 2001-34613 A

  If a translated word obtained by automatic translation is not intended, the user directly corrects the word. Then, by registering in the user dictionary described above, the current correction is reflected in the next translation.

  In other words, unless the user edits the user dictionary itself used by the translation engine, the user continues to obtain unintentionally translated words, and the word needs to be corrected each time.

  Similarly, in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to perform correction each time unless a word to be registered is transmitted to the server.

  As described above, in order to reflect the corrections made to the words of the translation later, the user himself / herself needs to edit the user dictionary, and there is a problem that the work is a burden on the user.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems of the prior art, and an object thereof is to provide a translation processing program and a translation system capable of reducing the user dictionary editing work by the user. To do.

  In order to solve the above-described problems and achieve the object, this program is a translation processing program that causes a computer to execute automatic translation using a first dictionary (basic dictionary, technical term dictionary, or user dictionary). A correction detection procedure for detecting a correction to a word in the word, a registration procedure for registering the corrected word and a word in the original text corresponding to the word in the second dictionary, the first dictionary, and the It is a requirement that the computer execute a translated sentence confirmation procedure for creating a confirmed translated sentence based on the second dictionary.

  Further, this program is a translation processing program for causing a computer as a terminal device that requests automatic translation using the first dictionary to a translation server, and a correction detection procedure for detecting a correction to a word in a translation, A registration procedure for associating the corrected word with a word in the original text corresponding to the word and registering it in the second dictionary, and a translation confirmation for creating a finalized translation based on the first dictionary and the second dictionary It is a requirement to have a computer execute the procedure.

  Further, this system is a translation system configured to include a server device that performs automatic translation using a first dictionary, and a terminal that requests the server device for the automatic translation. The correction detection means for detecting the correction of the word in the translation output by the server device, the corrected word, and the word in the original text corresponding to the word are associated and registered in the second dictionary provided in the server device. Registration means, and the server device is provided with translation creation means for creating a translation based on the first dictionary and the second dictionary.

  Further, this system is a translation system configured to include a server device that performs automatic translation using a first dictionary, and a terminal that requests the server device for the automatic translation. A correction detecting means for detecting a correction to a word in the translation output by the server device, a registration means for associating the corrected word and a word in the original sentence corresponding to the word into a second dictionary on the network And the server device is provided with a translation creating means for creating a translation based on the first dictionary and the second dictionary.

  The translated words corrected by the user are automatically registered in the second dictionary and reflected in the subsequent translation processing. As a result, the user does not have to perform the troublesome work (calling a dictionary editor, etc.) that has been conventionally performed to register the user dictionary. That is, it is possible to reduce user dictionary editing work by the user.

  Exemplary embodiments of a translation apparatus according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  First, the outline | summary of the translation apparatus concerning Example 1 is demonstrated. The translation device accepts words in a certain language by a user input operation, performs translation processing by a translation engine, and outputs words in another language as a processing result. In the translation engine, if the translation target is Japanese, conventional translation processing such as morphological analysis and dictionary search using a word or idiom in the translation target word as a search key is performed.

  There are three types of dictionaries referenced by the translation engine (basic dictionary, technical term dictionary, and user dictionary), but the basic dictionary is always used, and the technical term dictionary and user dictionary are used by the user's specification. ing.

  In the translation device, the translation engine performs translation processing using the entire dictionary (basic dictionary, technical term dictionary, and user dictionary) held in advance in the translation system, but the translated word obtained by the translation processing is not necessarily a user. Will not be as expected.

  Therefore, the user corrects the words in the translated sentence. Here, the translation device detects the correction to the words in the translated sentence, and calculates the corrected word and the word in the original sentence corresponding to the word. In association therewith, it is registered in a dictionary installed separately from the basic dictionary, technical term dictionary, and user dictionary.

  And the translation engine which the translation engine outputs using the whole dictionary is corrected based on the dictionary separately installed as mentioned above. Below, the specific structure of the said translation apparatus is shown and demonstrated.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating the configuration of the translation apparatus according to the first embodiment. As shown in the figure, the translation apparatus 10 includes an input unit 20, an acceptance processing unit 30, a display data storage unit 40, a display processing unit 50, a display unit 60, a translation engine 70, and an entire dictionary 80. The translation reflection unit 90, the registration processing unit 100, and the dictionary table 110 are provided.

  The input unit 20 receives a user input operation and is realized by a keyboard or a mouse. The user performs an input operation on the input unit 20 while viewing an output result displayed on the display unit 60 described later. The input unit 20 that has received the input operation outputs, to the reception processing unit 30, a source word, a translation editing instruction, a cursor movement instruction, a translation execution instruction, and the like.

  The reception processing unit 30 is a processing unit that processes information and instructions output from the input unit 20. Specifically, the reception processing unit 30 updates the display data storage unit 40 when receiving an original word, a translation editing instruction, and a cursor movement instruction from the input unit 20. When a translation execution instruction is received from the input unit 20, it is output to the translation engine 70.

  The display data storage unit 40 stores data used in the display processing unit 50, and particularly as closely related to the present invention, a source text storage unit 41, a translation result storage unit 42, a cursor position storage unit 43, Is provided.

  The original text storage unit 41 stores words that are the original text that is information output from the reception processing unit 30.

  The translation result storage unit 42 stores information generated as a result of translation processing by the translation engine 70.

  Specifically, in the translation result storage unit 42, as shown in FIG. 2, the word and the phrase “.” In Japanese, this is a pen, and in English, This, is, Pen, And a period “.” Are stored.

  Then, word correspondence information indicating which word is associated with the word or symbol is added to the above word or symbol. For example, information indicating that there is a correspondence with “This” is added to “this”. Similarly, information indicating that there is a correspondence relationship with “this” is added to “This”.

  Furthermore, the word includes position information indicating the position from the beginning of the sentence, number-of-characters information indicating how many characters are formed, part-of-speech information indicating the part of speech, dictionary identification information that is identification information of a dictionary from which the word is acquired, and the like. It has been added. For example, in “Pen”, when “T” of “This” at the beginning of the sentence is counted as 0th in order (space is also counted as a character), it is located at the 8th and is composed of 3 characters. , A noun, and information indicating from which dictionary of all the dictionaries 80 is searched.

  The cursor position storage unit 43 stores information indicating at which position in the image displayed on the display unit 60 the cursor is to be displayed. Such information is updated by the reception processing unit 30 that has received the cursor movement instruction.

  The display processing unit 50 displays an image on the display unit 60 based on the data stored in the display data storage unit 40.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the display unit 60 displays a Japanese sentence “This is a pen” in the original frame and an English sentence “This is Pen.” In the translated frame. Is done.

  Further, as shown in the figure, a cursor 1 and a pointer 2 are displayed on the display unit 60. As described above, the user performs an input operation on the input unit 20 while viewing the display unit 60 on which such an image is displayed. For example, with the direction key, the cursor 1 positioned to the right of “.” Is moved to the left. The cursor 1 is moved to the indicated position by clicking with the mouse while the pointer 2 is moved between “e” and “n” of “Pen”.

  The translation engine 70 translates words in one language into another language using the entire dictionary 80.

  The entire dictionary 80 refers to the entire dictionary that the translation engine 70 refers to at the time of translation. For example, the entire dictionary 80 is a language different from each other, and a pair of words each representing the same content, or such a pair of idioms. Multiple items are stored. Specifically, the entire dictionary 80 includes a basic dictionary 81, a technical term dictionary 82, and a user dictionary 83. The basic dictionary 81 is always referred to by the translation engine, but the technical term dictionary 82 and the user dictionary 83 are referred to by the user's specification. The user cannot register words in the basic dictionary 81 or the technical term dictionary 82 but can register words in the user dictionary 83.

  Specifically, when the translation engine 70 receives a translation execution instruction from the reception processing unit 30, the translation engine 70 reads a word that becomes the original sentence from the original sentence storage unit 41 and performs a translation process using the entire dictionary 80. As a result of the processing, the translation engine 70 generates words and symbols of the original sentence and the translation sentence to which each information is added as described above, and outputs it to the translation reflection unit 90.

  The translation reflection unit 90 performs processing on the words output from the translation engine 70 with reference to the dictionary table 110, but the registration processing unit 100 and the dictionary table 110 will be described before the processing is described.

  The registration processing unit 100 is a processing unit that associates the corrected translation word and the original word corresponding to the word into the dictionary table 110 and includes the detection / determination unit 101.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, original words, translated words, dictionary identification information, part-of-speech information, and the like are registered in the dictionary table 110 in association with each other. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, “pen”, “Penn (the spelling has been corrected)”, “A”, “noun”, and the like are registered in association with each other.

  The registration processing unit 100 detects, by the detection / determination unit 101, that the user has edited the translated sentence already stored in the translation result storage unit 42, and whether or not the word has been corrected at the end of the editing. Judging.

  Specifically, when the detection / determination unit 101 detects that a translation editing instruction is output from the reception processing unit 30 to the display data storage unit 40, the cursor position storage unit 43 and the translation result storage unit 42 are referred to. To identify which word was edited.

  Then, the movement of the cursor position is monitored, and it is determined that the editing by the user is ended when the cursor position is away from the word, and it is determined whether or not the word is corrected.

  When the detection / determination unit 101 determines that the word has been corrected by the user, the registration processing unit 100 starts registration processing for the dictionary table 110. Instead of starting the registration process based on such a determination result, it waits until an instruction is received from the user after detection, and the registration process may be started when the instruction is received.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart for explaining the processing operation of the registration processing unit 100. The registration processing will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the registration processing unit 100 acquires the corrected translated word from the translation result storage unit 42, and similarly acquires the original word based on the word correspondence information added to the word ( Step S110).

  Then, the registration processing unit 100 searches the dictionary table 110 using the original word as a search key (step S120).

  If the original word is not registered in the dictionary table 110 as a result of the search (No at Step S130), the registration processing unit 100 associates the original word or the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 with the dictionary. Register in the table 110 (step S140).

  Furthermore, part of speech information and dictionary identification information added to a word may be associated and registered.

  On the other hand, if it is already registered as a result of the search (Yes at Step S130), the registration processing unit 100 acquires a translated word associated with the original word in the dictionary table 110 (Step S150).

  Then, the registration processing unit 100 compares the translated word acquired from the dictionary table 110 with the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 (step S160).

  If they are different as a result of the comparison (No at Step S170), the registration processing unit 100 overwrites the translated word in the dictionary table 110 with the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 (Step S180). End the process.

  On the other hand, if both are the same (Yes at step S170), the process is terminated.

  In the registration process described above, the second and subsequent corrections to the translated word are recorded by overwriting the translated word, but the re-corrected translated word is additionally recorded instead of overwriting. You may do it.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining the processing operation of the registration processing unit 100 in that case, and the registration processing will be described with reference to FIG.

  In the dictionary table 110, as shown in FIG. 7, a registration date is further associated and registered.

  First, the registration processing unit 100 acquires the corrected translated word from the translation result storage unit 42, and similarly acquires the original word based on the word correspondence information added to the word ( Step S190).

  Then, the dictionary table 110 is searched using the original word as a search key (step S200), and the word associated with the latest registered date is selected and acquired from the translated words acquired as the search result (step S203).

  Then, it is compared whether or not the translated word acquired from the dictionary table 110 is the same as the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 (step S207).

  If they are different as a result of the comparison (No at step S210), the original word and the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 and the registration date as the current date / time information are associated with each other in the dictionary table 110. Registration is performed (step S220), and the process is terminated.

  As described above, part of speech information and dictionary identification information added to a word may be registered in association with each other.

  On the other hand, when both are the same (Yes at Step S210), the process is terminated.

  In this way, by additionally recording, in other words, by saving the update history in the dictionary table 110, for example, it is desired to obtain a translation result in accordance with the correction made by March 1, 2008. Is also possible.

  By the way, as described above, instead of starting the registration process immediately after determining that a word has been corrected, for example, a method of identifying and storing which word in one sentence of the translation has been corrected may be used. Then, the movement of the cursor position may be monitored, and the registration process may be started when the cursor position leaves the sentence.

  Also, instead of starting the registration process based on the cursor position in this way, after detection, it waits until receiving an instruction to confirm the translation from the user, and when the instruction is received, the registration process is started. Also good.

  Then, the registration process shown as steps S110 to S180 in FIG. 5 and the registration process shown as steps S190 to S220 in FIG. 6 are performed for all translated words that have been corrected.

  Returning to the explanation of the translation reflection unit 90. FIG. 8 is a flowchart for explaining the processing operation of the translation reflection unit 90. The explanation will be given with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. It should be noted that the processing flow shown in the figure is repeatedly executed every time a word is received from the translation engine 70.

  As shown in FIG. 8, first, the translation reflection unit 90 selects a word that is the head of the original sentence received from the translation engine 70 and a translated word that corresponds to the word (step S230).

  Then, the translation reflection unit 90 searches the dictionary table 110 using the original word as a search key (step S240).

  In addition, when the compound noun is divided into a plurality of nouns by the translation engine 70, the search key may be expanded depending on the case to search the dictionary table 110.

  If the original word is already registered in the dictionary table 110 as a result of the search (Yes at step S250), the translation reflecting unit 90 selects the translated word corresponding to the original word as the selected translated word. (Step S260).

  When performing replacement, the part-of-speech information added by the translation engine 70 is referred to the selected translated sentence, and the translated word in the dictionary table 110 is used according to the part-of-speech information. Replacement may be performed above.

  After the translation is replaced, or when the original word is not registered in the dictionary table 110 (No at Step S250), the translation reflection unit 90 determines whether the selected original word is the end of the sentence. It is determined whether or not (step S270).

  As a result of the determination, if the sentence is not at the end (No at step S270), the translation reflecting unit 90 selects the word positioned next to the currently selected word among the original words and the translated word corresponding to the word. Is switched (step S280), and the process returns to step S240.

  On the other hand, if the end of the sentence is determined as a result of the determination (Yes in step S270), the translation reflecting unit 90 replaces the original sentence and the translated word received from the translation engine 70 (the translated word is replaced depending on the case). Is stored in the display data storage unit 40 as a translation result (step S290), and the process is terminated.

  Here, another processing operation different from the processing operation described above will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the translation reflection unit 90 selects a word to be the head of the original text received from the translation engine 70 (step S300).

  Then, the dictionary table 110 is searched using the original word as a search key (step S310).

  If the original word is already registered in the dictionary table 110 as a result of the search (Yes in step S320), the translated word corresponding to the original word is acquired from the dictionary table 110, and the acquired translated word is used as the acquired translated word. On the other hand, non-translation instruction information and part-of-speech designation information are added (step S330).

  The translation engine 70 performs the translation process except for the word to which the non-translation instruction information is added.

  Moreover, the translation engine 70 performs a translation process on the word to which the part-of-speech designation information is added using the part of speech designated by the part-of-speech designation information.

  Here, the part of speech designated by the part of speech designation information is the part of speech indicated by the part of speech information added to the selected original word.

  Returning to the description of the processing operation, the translation reflection unit 90 replaces the selected original word with the translated word acquired from the dictionary table 110 (step S340).

  After the replacement, or when the original word is not registered in the dictionary table 110 (No at Step S320), it is determined whether or not the selected original word is the word at the end of the sentence (Step S350). ).

  As a result of the determination, if it is not the end of the sentence (No at Step S350), the selection is switched to the word positioned next to the currently selected word among the original words (Step S360), and the process returns to Step S310.

  After returning to the process of step S310, the same process is performed using the original word being selected.

  On the other hand, as a result of the determination, if any one of the words in the original text is replaced (Yes at Step S350 and Yes at Step S370), the original text and the translated text received from the translation engine 70 are replaced. Is returned to the translation engine 70 to instruct the re-execution of the translation process (step S380).

  Since the translation engine 70 outputs the original word and the translated word corresponding to the original word, the translation reflection unit 90 receives the output word (step S390).

  And the word used as the sentence head among the words of the original sentence received from the translation engine 70, and the word of the translation sentence corresponding to the said word are selected (step S400).

  If the translation processing for the selected original sentence is not executed by the non-translation instruction information (No at step S410), the part of speech information added to the selected translated word for the selected translated word. Utilization is performed according to (step S420).

  After use, or when translation processing is being performed on the selected original word (Yes in step S410), it is determined whether or not the selected original word is the last word. (Step S430).

  As a result of the determination, if it is not the end of the sentence (No at Step S430), a word positioned next to the currently selected word among the original words and a translated word corresponding to the word are selected (Step S440), The process returns to step S410.

  On the other hand, if the result of the determination is that the sentence is at the end of the sentence, or if no replacement has been performed (Yes in step S430 or No in step S370), the translation reflection unit 90 receives the original and translated sentences received from the translation engine 70. The word is stored in the display data storage unit 40 as a translation result (step S450), and the process ends.

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, translated words corrected by the user are automatically registered in the dictionary table 110 and reflected in the subsequent translation processing. As a result, the user does not have to perform the troublesome work (calling a dictionary editor, etc.) that has been conventionally performed to register the user dictionary. That is, it is possible to reduce user dictionary editing work by the user.

  In the first embodiment, the translation reflection unit 90 processes the translation result of the translation engine 70 with reference to the dictionary table 110. In the second embodiment, the contents of the dictionary table 110 are reflected in the entire dictionary 80. Then, the translation engine 70 performs translation processing with reference to the entire dictionary 80.

  In addition, since a normal translation engine cannot register words in the basic dictionary or technical term dictionary, it is strictly reflected (registered) in the user dictionary, but it can also be registered in the basic dictionary or technical term dictionary. If there is an engine, it may be reflected in the basic dictionary or technical term dictionary.

  Therefore, FIG. 10 is a block diagram illustrating the configuration of the translation apparatus according to the second embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 10, the translation apparatus 10 newly includes a dictionary update unit 120 and the translation reflection unit 90 is described. Removed from component.

  In the second embodiment, the registration processing unit 100 associates and registers an update flag when a corrected translated word or an original word corresponding to the word is registered in the dictionary table 110 in association with each other. The update flag is information used to identify whether information associated with the update flag has been reflected in the entire dictionary 80.

  Therefore, in the dictionary table 110, as shown in FIG. 11, in addition to an original word, a translated word, dictionary identification information, part of speech information, and the like, an update flag is associated and registered. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11, “pen”, “Penn”, “A”, “noun”, “present”, and the like are associated and registered.

  The dictionary update unit 120 updates the entire dictionary 80 based on the contents registered in the dictionary table 110.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart for explaining the processing operation of the dictionary update unit 120, which will be specifically described with reference to FIG. Note that the processing flow shown in the figure is repeatedly executed every time registration is performed in the dictionary table 110 by the registration processing unit 100.

  First, the dictionary updating unit 120 acquires information associated with the update flag “present” in the dictionary table 110 (step S450).

  And the dictionary update part 120 performs an update process using the acquired information with respect to the dictionary in the whole dictionary 80 which dictionary identification information shows among the acquired information (step S460). In addition, when performing an update process, the acquired information is converted into a dictionary format of the translation engine 70 as necessary.

  After the update process, the dictionary update unit 120 updates the update flag associated with the information to be acquired in the dictionary table 110 to “none” (step S470), and ends the process.

  In the method of controlling the start of the registration process for each sentence, a plurality of registrations may be performed. In this case, the loop process is performed until there is no information to be acquired associated with the update flag “present” in the dictionary table 110.

  By the way, you may make it make the translation engine 70 perform said process which the dictionary update part 120 performs.

  In that case, as shown in FIG. 13, the dictionary update unit 120 is excluded from the constituent elements, and the translation engine 70 includes a dictionary update unit 125 for reflecting the contents of the dictionary table 110 in the entire dictionary 80.

  In the first embodiment, the process of automatically updating the dictionary table when the translated word of the automatic translation result is edited has been described. In the third embodiment, the edited translated word is converted into the original form, and the converted original form is converted into the dictionary. It shall be registered in the table.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 20, in the translation apparatus 10 of the first embodiment, when a user corrects a translation result of a predetermined word, the translation result is immediately reflected in the dictionary table and reflected in the translation result from the next time. Referring to the example of FIG. 20, when the translation apparatus 10 receives an update operation for correcting “Pen” to “Penn” from the user, the translation apparatus 10 immediately registers the correction result in the dictionary table. Reflect in translation results.

  However, in the translation apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment, even when the user performs editing to change the utilization form of the translated word, it is immediately reflected in the dictionary table, and the modified utilization form is reflected as the translation result after the next time. I will let you. Referring to the example of FIG. 20, when the translation apparatus 10 accepts an update operation for changing the original form “Penn” from the user to the plural form “Penns”, the translation apparatus 10 immediately reflects the update operation in the dictionary table, and as a translation result for the next and subsequent times. The modified plural form “Penns” is translated.

  Therefore, in the following third embodiment, as an example in which the edited translated word is converted into the original form, and the converted original form is registered in the dictionary table, the translation apparatus 10a in the third embodiment is used with reference to FIGS. The configuration and processing will be described. FIG. 21 is a block diagram illustrating the configuration of the translation apparatus according to the third embodiment. FIG. 22 is a diagram for explaining the dictionary table. FIG. 23 is a diagram for explaining the utilization table. FIG. 24 is a diagram for explaining an example in which the dictionary is not updated even if the automatic translation result is corrected. 25 and 26 are flowcharts for explaining the processing operation of the registration processing unit. FIG. 27 is a flowchart for explaining the determination processing operation of the registration processing unit.

  As shown in FIG. 21, the translation apparatus 10a is different from the translation apparatus 10 shown in FIG. 1 in that it has a utilization processing unit 102a and a utilization table 103a. In the following, each part of the configuration of the translation apparatus 10a according to the third embodiment will be described.

  Similar to the first embodiment, the translation apparatus 10a according to the third embodiment includes a dictionary table 110. Here, the dictionary table 110 will be specifically described with reference to the example of FIG. As shown in FIG. 22, as in the first embodiment, the dictionary table 110 includes “original word” that is the original word, “translation” that is the translated word, “dictionary name” that is the dictionary identification information, and information on the part of speech. “Part of speech” or the like is associated and registered.

  Here, in the dictionary table 110 of the translation apparatus 10a according to the third embodiment, only words whose original word is the original form are registered and updated in the “translation word”. That is, in the translation apparatus 10a according to the third embodiment, as described in detail below, when the editing result of the user performs editing for changing the utilization form of the translated word, the edited translated word is converted into the original form and converted. Register the original form in the dictionary table.

  The registration processing unit 100a performs processing for associating the corrected word converted into the original form and the word in the original text corresponding to the word into the dictionary table 110. In particular, the detection / determination unit 101a It has a processing unit 102a and a utilization table 103a.

  The utilization table 103a stores a utilization type and a utilization form character string in association with each word. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 23, the utilization table 103a includes, for each word, the word “part of speech”, the “utilization type” indicating what the utilization character string represents, and the characters indicating the utilization form. The column “utilized character string” is stored in association with each other.

  Referring to the example of FIG. 23, in the utilization table 103a, as illustrated in FIG. 23, the part of speech is “noun”, the utilization type is “plural ending”, and the utilization character string is “s”. It is stored in association with each other, and “s” is a plural ending attached to a noun.

  In the utilization table 103a, as illustrated in FIG. 23, when “not utilized” is stored as the utilization type, it indicates that the part of speech does not change, and the utilization character string is blank. In the utilization table 103a, in the case of irregular utilization, “original form → utilization form” is stored in the utilization character string (in the example of FIG. 23, “go → went” is stored).

  Similar to the first embodiment, the detection / determination unit 101a detects that the user has edited the translation already stored in the translation result storage unit 42, and whether or not the translation has been corrected at the end of the editing. Determine whether. As a result, when it is determined that the translation has been corrected, the detection / determination unit 101a notifies the utilization processing unit 102a that the correction of the translation has been detected.

  When the correction is detected, the utilization processing unit 102a converts the utilization form of the corrected word into the original form. Specifically, when the utilization processing unit 102a receives from the detection / determination unit 101a that the correction of the translated word is detected, the utilization processing unit 102a refers to the utilization table 103a and determines whether the modified translated word is utilized.

  For example, the utilization processing unit 102a searches the utilization table 103a for a utilization character string that matches “s” added to the ending of the noun when a correction is made to change the noun “Penn” to “Penns”. To do. As a result, the utilization processing unit 102a reads the utilization type “plural ending” corresponding to the utilization character string “s”, and the utilization form of the corrected word is plural, and the modified translation is utilized. It is determined that

  Then, when it is determined that the modified translation is utilized, the utilization processing unit 102a estimates the original form of the modified translation with reference to the utilization table 103a. To explain using the above example, the utilization processing unit 102a estimates “Penn” obtained by removing the utilization form character string “s” from the corrected translation “Penns” as the original form. As for the original shape estimation process, the original shape may be estimated using a known technique other than the above-described embodiment.

  Thereafter, the registration processing unit 100a determines whether the original form estimated by the utilization processing unit 102a is the same as the translation registered in the dictionary table 110. As a result, the registration processing unit 100a does not update the dictionary table if they are the same.

  A specific example will be described with reference to FIG. 24. The utilization processing unit 102a refers to the utilization table 103a when “penns” is corrected to “penns”. Presumed that the original form is “penn”. In this case, since the estimated original form and the dictionary translation are the same, the contents of the dictionary table 110 are not updated.

  On the other hand, when the original form estimated by the utilization processing unit 102a is different from the translated word registered in the dictionary table 110, the original word and the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 and the current date and time information are registered. The date is associated with each other and registered in the dictionary table 110.

  Next, processing of the registration processing unit 100a according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 25 is a flowchart for explaining the processing operation of the registration processing unit 100a. The registration processing will be described with reference to FIG. The processing of the registration processing unit 100a of the third embodiment is different from the processing of the registration processing unit 100 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 5 in that the converted original form is registered in the dictionary table.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 25, the registration processing unit 100a acquires the corrected translated word from the translation result storage unit 42, and based on the word correspondence information added to the word, Word and part-of-speech information are acquired in the same manner (step S510). Then, the registration processing unit 100a searches the dictionary table 110 using the original word and part of speech as search keys (step S520).

  As a result of the search, when the original word and part of speech are not registered in the dictionary table 110 (No at Step S530), the registration processing unit 100a acquires the original word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42, the translated word and the part of speech. Are registered in the dictionary table 110 in association with each other (step S540).

  On the other hand, if it is already registered as a result of the search (Yes at Step S530), the registration processing unit 100a acquires a translated word associated with the original word in the dictionary table 110 (Step S550). Then, the registration processing unit 100a determines whether or not the translation acquired from the dictionary table 110 and the original form of the translation acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 are the same (details will be described later using FIG. 27). (Step S560).

  If both are different as a result of the determination (No at Step S560), the registration processing unit 100a overwrites the translated word in the dictionary table 110 with the translated word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 (Step S570). End the process. On the other hand, if both are the same (Yes at step S560), the registration processing unit 100a ends the process.

  Next, an additional recording process for additionally recording a re-corrected translated word will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 26 is a flowchart for explaining the processing operation of the registration processing unit 100a in that case, and the additional recording process will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in the figure, the registration processing unit 100a of the translation apparatus 10a obtains the corrected translation word from the translation result storage unit 42 and, based on the word correspondence information added to the word, Similarly, the original word and its part of speech are acquired (step S610).

  Then, the dictionary table 110 is searched using the original word and part of speech as search keys (step S620), and the word associated with the latest registered date is selected and acquired from the translated words acquired as the search result (step S630). ).

  Subsequently, the registration processing unit 100a determines whether or not the translation acquired from the dictionary table 110 is the same as the original form of the translation acquired from the translation result storage unit 42 (later using FIG. 27). (Detailed) is performed (step S640).

  After that, if the result of determination is that they are different (No at step S640), the registration processing unit 100a determines the original word and the translation word acquired from the translation result storage unit 42, and the registration date that is the current date and time information. Are associated with each other and registered in the dictionary table 110 (step S650), and the process ends. On the other hand, when both are the same (step S640 affirmative), a process is complete | finished.

  Subsequently, a detailed processing procedure of the determination processing (the determination processing in S560 and S640 described above) of the registration processing unit 100a will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the figure, the registration processing unit 100a of the translation apparatus 10a obtains the corrected translation from the translation result storage unit 42 as (A) and obtains the translation from the dictionary table 110 (B). (Step S710).

  Then, the registration processing unit 100a refers to the utilization table 103a to determine whether the corrected translation is utilized (Step S720). As a result, when it is determined that the corrected translation is utilized (Yes at Step S720), the registration processing unit 100a refers to the utilization table 103a in the utilization processing unit 102a and is the original form of the translated word. And the original form of the estimated translation is (C) (step S730).

  Thereafter, the registration processing unit 100a determines whether the estimated original form (C) and the translated word (B) registered in the dictionary table 110 are the same (Step S750). As a result, if they are the same (Yes at Step S750), the registration processing unit 100a returns “Yes” as the determination result of S560 and S640 described above (Step S760), and if not the same (No at Step S750). Then, “No” is returned as the determination result of S560 and S640 described above (step S770).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S720 that the corrected translation is not utilized (No at Step S720), the registration processing unit 100a selects the corrected translation (A) without estimating the original form (C). ) (Step S740). Then, the registration processing unit 100a determines whether the corrected translation (C) and the translation (B) registered in the dictionary table 110 are the same (step S750).

  As a result, if they are the same (Yes at Step S750), the registration processing unit 100a returns “Yes” as the determination result of S560 and S640 described above (Step S760), and if they are not the same (Step S750). No), “No” is returned as the determination result of S560 and S640 described above (step S770).

  In this way, when a correction is detected, the utilization form of the corrected word is converted to the original form, and the corrected word converted to the original form is associated with the word in the original sentence corresponding to the word. Register in the table 110. For this reason, when the user corrects the translation result, if the corrected word is an inflected form, it is converted into the original form and registered in the dictionary table 110, so that the inflected form is not registered as a word. Only the original form can be registered in the dictionary table 110.

  Although the translation apparatus according to the first and second embodiments has been described so far, the present invention may be implemented in various different forms other than the first to third embodiments described above. Therefore, as shown below, different embodiments will be described by dividing into (1) to (3).

(1) Arrangement of Translation Engine 70 In the above embodiment, the translation apparatus 10 performs a translation process on the original word using the translation engine 70 provided in the own apparatus. The present invention is not limited, and as shown in FIG. 14, a translation engine 70 included in the translation server device 200 connected via the network 3 may be used.

  More specifically, as shown in the figure, the translation apparatus 10 transmits the original word to the translation server apparatus 200 by the data transmission / reception unit 130.

  Since the translation server device 200 including the data transmission / reception unit 210 transmits the original sentence to which each information is added and the words and symbols of the translation sentence, the translation apparatus 10 processes the word by the translation reflection unit 90. I do.

  As described above, when the translation engine 70 included in the translation server device 200 is used, as shown in FIG. 15, the translation reflection unit 90 and the dictionary table 110 may be further arranged on the translation server device 200 side. Good.

  In that case, the translation apparatus 10 stores the corrected translated word and the original sentence corresponding to the word in the dictionary table 110 of the translation server apparatus 200 in association with each other.

  When the translation apparatus 10 requests translation processing, the data transmission / reception unit 130 transmits the original word to the translation server apparatus 200.

  Since the translation server unit 200 executes the processing by the translation reflection unit 90 and transmits the above-described words and symbols, the translation device 10 stores it in the display data storage unit 40 as it is.

  Further, when the translation engine 70 provided in the translation server device 200 is used in this way, as shown in FIG. 16, the translation device 10 uses the dictionary update unit 120 described in the second embodiment to translate the translation server device 200. You may make it update the whole dictionary 80 with which it is equipped.

  Furthermore, the processing performed by the dictionary update unit 120 may be executed by the translation engine 70 included in the translation server device 200.

  In addition, since it is necessary to stop the translation process of the translation server apparatus 200 at the time of an update, it is desirable to perform the said update in time. Therefore, as compared with the method for performing the update, the method in which the translation reflection unit 90 processes the translation result of the translation engine 70 is more efficient because it is not necessary to stop the translation server device 200 on the system.

  Therefore, the translation engine 70 accesses the dictionary table 110 included in the translation apparatus 10 via the network 3 without updating the entire dictionary 80 by the dictionary update unit 120, and refers to the dictionary table 110 for translation processing. May be performed.

  For example, the translation engine 70 reads the file of the dictionary table 110 into the memory. When the translation engine 70 searches the dictionary by the analysis process, the translation engine 70 also searches the entry of the dictionary table 110 and performs the analysis process.

(2) Arrangement of Dictionary Table 110 In the above embodiment, the translation apparatus 10 includes the dictionary table 110 in its own apparatus, registers the dictionary table 110 by the registration processing unit 100, and refers to the dictionary table 110. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the dictionary table 110 may be arranged on the network 3 as shown in FIG. .

  In this way, a translator who is a user of each translation apparatus 10 can share the dictionary table 110. For example, in the dictionary table 110, an update date and an updater are recorded in addition to words and dictionary identification information. As a result, if the registration of excellent translators is made impossible to edit (only the translators can edit), the translation work can be made more efficient among a plurality of translators.

  Specifically, as shown in the figure, the translation apparatus 10 associates the corrected translation word and the original sentence word corresponding to the word with each other and registers them in the dictionary table 110 on the network 3. To do.

  Then, the translation apparatus 10 transmits the original text to the translation server apparatus 200 by the data transmission / reception unit 130.

  Since the translation server device 200 including the data transmission / reception unit 210 transmits the original sentence to which each information is added and the words and symbols of the translation sentence, the translation apparatus 10 performs processing on the word using the translation reflection unit 90. .

  At that time, the translation apparatus 10 performs processing by the translation reflection unit 90 with reference to the dictionary table 110 on the network 3.

  Thus, when the dictionary table 110 is arranged on the network 3, the translation reflection unit 90 may be arranged on the translation server device 200 side. From the translation server device 200, processing by the translation reflection unit 90 is executed (the translation server device 200 performs processing by the translation reflection unit 90 with reference to the dictionary table 110 on the network 3). Since the above-described words and symbols are transmitted, the translation apparatus 10 stores them in the display data storage unit 40 as they are.

  Further, when the dictionary table 110 is arranged on the network 3 as described above, as shown in FIG. 18, the translation apparatus 10 is configured so that the translation server apparatus 200 uses the dictionary update unit 120 described in the second embodiment. The entire dictionary 80 provided may be updated.

  Specifically, the translation apparatus 10 uses the dictionary update unit 120 to access the dictionary table 110 on the network 3 and obtains information associated with the update flag “present” in the dictionary table 110.

  Then, the translation apparatus 10 accesses the entire dictionary 80 included in the translation server apparatus 200 by the dictionary update unit 120 and uses the acquired information for the entire dictionary 80 indicated by the dictionary identification information among the acquired information. Perform update processing.

  Furthermore, the processing performed by the dictionary update unit 120 may be executed by the translation engine 70 included in the translation server device 200.

  The translation engine 70 may access the dictionary table 110 on the network 3 via the network 3 without updating the entire dictionary 80 by the dictionary updating unit 120.

(3) Location of input unit and display unit In the drawings given above, it is written that the input unit 20 and the display unit 60 are directly connected to the translation apparatus 10, but they are not necessarily connected directly. For example, they may be connected via a network.

  Specifically, the input unit and the display unit may be realized by a web browser operating on another computer where the translation apparatus 10 is operating on a network. In this case, movement of the cursor detected by the input unit, cursor position information, and the like are transmitted to the translation apparatus 10 through the network.

  Finally, the translation apparatus according to the present invention can also be implemented by causing a computer to execute a translation processing program and operating hardware resources of the computer as respective functional units.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating a computer that executes a translation processing program. As shown in the figure, a computer 300 includes an input device 310, a display device 320, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 330, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 340, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 350, and an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) 360.
