<Overview>
First, the outline of the technique of the first embodiment will be described.
It includes a technology that automatically attaches a link (reference) to the reference destination of the internal document at the place where the article 1 number, item number, other issue number, subdivision number of other issue, etc. are referred to.
2 Includes a technology that automatically updates the article number, item number, other item number, subdivision number of other item, etc. at the reference point when the referenced clause number is updated.
3 Includes a technology to detect and display a broken reference when the referenced clause disappears, such as when the referenced clause is deleted.
4 Regarding the above-mentioned reference / automatic follow-up / missing reference detection, not only the number notation such as Article X, Article Y, Item Z, but also the expression that does not directly describe the number such as Article X, Article Y, Paragraph Y, etc. Even if there is, it is possible to correspond.
5 Regarding links, a mechanism is provided that distinguishes between those that point to an internal document and those that point to an external document, and follows only those that point to the internal document.
6 Regarding the above, when a link is attached to a reference destination that you do not want to automatically follow, provide a user interface (UI) that manually turns off (turns off) the automatic tracking of the clause number or deletes the link (reference). ..

<Outline of technology>
Next, an outline of the technology will be described.
1 Extraction of reference points The extraction of reference points may be any of the following, for example: (1) Extraction by regular expression (2) Extraction by machine learning (label the reference expression for learning)
2 Linking to the reference part (1) For the reference part extracted in 1 above, the reference part ID that specifies the clause, line or sentence of the reference destination or a certain range of paragraphs is retained in the form linked to the reference part. In the following embodiment, the clause ID that identifies the clause will be described as an example of the reference ID.
3 Automatic tracking of reference expression (1) The clause expression of the place where the clause ID of the reference source is embedded (for example, paragraph 2 of the preceding article) and the clause number of the reference destination stored in the storage (for example, Article 1/2). ) Is put into a state of synchronization.
(A) Since the clause expression of the reference source (for example, paragraph 2 of the preceding article) and the information indicated by the clause number of the reference destination (for example, Article 1/2) do not always match, the clause expression is referred to. Realize automatic tracking through conversion processing to the expression of the information indicated by the clause number (for example, the expression of paragraph 2 of the preceding article is converted to "Article 1/2" corresponding to the preceding article).
(B) In this conversion process, expressions that do not use numbers, such as those in the previous article, are also absorbed.
4 Broken link at the reference point When the clause, line or sentence of the reference destination referred to by the reference point or a certain range of paragraphs is deleted, the link inserted at the reference point contains information indicating the broken link state. When the link is broken, the computer operates so as not to follow the reference clause ID. As a result, even if the article number or the like referred to in the notation is updated, automatic tracking will not be performed.

The processor 26 loads the program from the storage 23 into the memory 24 and executes a series of instructions included in the program to execute the holding control unit 261 and the extraction unit 262, the insertion unit 263, the number update unit 264, and the reference point update. It functions as a unit 265 and a communication control unit 266. The detailed processing will be described later.

FIG. 4 is an example of the screen transition of the terminal according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 4, on the screen G1, a box B1 for accepting a contract file is shown as an example. For example, when the file of the non-disclosure agreement is imported and the send button B2 is pressed, the contract data of the non-disclosure agreement is transmitted to the server 2 and saved in the storage 23 of the server 2 from the server 2. The screen G2 is displayed on the terminal 1 according to the information. On the screen G2, the imported non-disclosure agreement is displayed in an editable manner. Further, when the update button B3 is displayed and the update button is pressed, the data of the contract (here, the confidentiality agreement as an example) saved in the storage 23 of the server 2 is updated.

When the contract data is stored in the storage 23 of the server 2, it is stored as in the reference table T1 shown in FIG. 5, for example. FIG. 5 is an example of a reference table stored in the storage of the server according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 5, as an example, the reference table T1 stores a set of records of a clause identification information ID that identifies a clause, a clause number, and the contents of the clause for each clause. Has been done. Here, there may be various ways of expressing (expression) the clause number. Here, for example, in the case of Article 2, Paragraph 2, Item 1, it is expressed by the link expression "Article 2/2 / (1)".
In this way, the retention control unit 261 stores the clause identification information for identifying the clause, the information representing the clause number, and the content of the clause in the storage 23 for each clause from the document data having the identification number. Let me.

Subsequently, the processing in the server will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8. FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram for explaining the processing of the server according to the first embodiment. FIG. 7 is an example of screen transition in the terminal. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram for explaining the processing of the server corresponding to FIG. 7.
It is the continuation schematic diagram of FIG.
(Step 1) As shown in FIG. 6, the extraction unit 262 extracts a reference portion that refers to another clause from the document data. Here, for example, "Article 1, Paragraph 2" is extracted. At that time, the extraction unit 262 may extract a reference portion that refers to another clause by using a regular expression. Alternatively, the extraction unit 262 may extract a reference portion that refers to another clause by using a machine learning model that has learned the learning data in which the reference portion is labeled with the reference destination.

(Step 2) As shown in FIG. 6, the insertion unit 263 inserts a link corresponding to the clause number indicated by the reference portion into the document data around the extracted reference portion. This link contains clause identification information (eg, clause ID). Here, the tag <xxx refId = "b"> is inserted as a link containing the clause ID "b" immediately before "Article 1, Paragraph 2", and immediately after "Article 1, Paragraph 2". </ xxx> is inserted. The link may be in another format instead of the tag format, and the type of this tag and the attribute attribute name "refId" in the tag are examples and may be other formats.
Here, as an example, it is assumed that the link includes the reference clause identification information (for example, clause ID), but the information indicating the reference clause number (for example, "Article 2/2 / (for example)" 1) ”and other link expressions) may be included. As a result, if the clause number of the reference destination is changed, the clause number of the reference location in which this link is inserted can also be changed to the same number following the clause number of the reference destination. In this case, since the information representing the referenced clause number functions as the referenced clause identification information, the clause ID may not be required.
In this way, the insertion unit 263 holds the clause ID that specifies the clause (or a certain range of paragraphs) of the reference destination in a form associated with the reference portion.

As shown in FIG. 7, on the screen G3, when the lump of Article 1 and the lump of Article 2 are exchanged and the update button B3 is pressed, the screen G4 is displayed. On the screen G4, the clause number was renumbered, and following the change of Article 1 to Article 2, it was described as "Article 1, Paragraph 2" on the screen G3 in Article 3. What was there will be changed to "Article 2, Paragraph 2".

The processing at this time will be described with reference to FIG.
(Step 3) As shown in FIG. 8, when Articles 1 and 2 are exchanged in the contract data being edited on the screen G3, the clause number is displayed in the reference table T1 stored in the storage 23. , "Article 1" will be changed to "Article 2".
In this way, when the document data after inserting the link is edited, the number updating unit 264 updates the information representing the clause number stored in the storage 23 by using the edited document data.

Furthermore, in the reference part, where the reference source clause ID is "b", the clause number has been changed to "Article 2/2", so following this, the clause number has been changed to "Article 1". "Paragraph 2" will be updated to "Article 2 Paragraph 2".
In this way, the reference location update unit 265 updates the clause number indicated by the reference location in which the link is inserted to the clause number of the reference destination of the link for each inserted link in the edited document data. ..

FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram for explaining another process of the server according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 9, for example, when the reference source clause (for example, Article 1, Paragraph 2) is deleted, the number update unit 264 deletes the clause in the document data after the link is inserted. In that case, the corresponding data stored in the storage 23 is deleted or a deletion flag is set.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9, when "Article 1, Paragraph 2", which is an example of the referenced clause of the reference location, is deleted, for example, the clause ID included in the link inserted in the reference location is , It is changed to "null" which is an example of the information that identifies that the reference destination has been deleted.

In this way, the reference point update unit 265 refers to the storage 23, and when the clause of the clause number indicated by the reference spot into which the link is inserted is deleted, the reference destination is deleted. Change to include identifying information.

With this configuration, when the clause of the reference source is deleted, the link from the reference point to the reference destination can be cut, and the clause number of the reference point can be prevented from following the clause of the reference source. ..

FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an example of the process according to the first embodiment.
(Step S10) The terminal 1 accepts the contract file.

(Step S20) Next, the terminal 1 transmits the contract data included in the received contract file. The contract file may be sent as it is.

(Step S30) When the server 2 receives the contract data, the retention control unit 261 divides the contract data into a clause ID, information indicating the clause number, and a set of records of the contents of the clause, and puts them in the reference table T1. save.

(Step S40) As shown in FIG. 6, the extraction unit 262 extracts a reference portion that refers to another clause.

(Step S50) As shown in FIG. 6, the insertion unit 263 inserts a link corresponding to the clause number indicated by the extracted reference portion into the contract data.

(Step S60) The insertion unit 263 generates information for displaying the contract after the link is inserted.

(Step S70) The communication control unit 266 controls transmission of information for displaying the contract after the link is inserted.

(Step S80) When the processor 16 of the terminal 1 receives the information for displaying the contract after the link is inserted, the processor 16 after the link is inserted using this information as shown in the screen G3 of FIG. Is displayed editably.

(Step S90) The processor 16 of the terminal 1 accepts the change of the reference clause number.

(Step S100) The processor 16 of the terminal 1 determines whether or not the update button on the screen has been pressed.

(Step S110) When the screen update button is pressed in step S100 (step S100 YES), the processor 16 of the terminal 1 controls transmission of the edited contract data.

(Step S120) When the server 2 receives the edited contract data, the number updating unit 264 updates the reference destination table using the edited contract data as shown in FIG.

(Step S130) As shown in FIG. 8, the reference location update unit 265 updates each inserted link to the clause number of the reference destination of the reference location in which the link is inserted in the edited contract data. ..

(Step S140) The communication control unit 266 controls transmission of the updated contract data.

(Step S150) When the terminal 1 receives the updated contract data, the processor 16 displays and controls the updated contract data.

As described above, the information processing system according to the first embodiment has item identification information (for example, clause) that identifies the item (for example, clause) for each item (for example, clause) associated with the identification number from the document data having the identification number. The holding control unit 261 that holds the information representing the ID) and / or the identification number (for example, the clause number) in association with the content of the item (for example, the clause), and other items (for example, the clause) from the document data. A link corresponding to an identification number (for example, a clause number) included in the reference location is inserted into the document data and the extraction unit 262 that extracts the reference portion that refers to the reference location. When the insertion unit 263 and the document data after inserting the link are edited, the number update unit 264 that updates the information representing the retained identification number (for example, the clause number) using the edited document data. And, in the edited document data, for each inserted link, the identification number (for example, clause number) indicated by the reference location where the link is inserted is changed to the identification number (for example, clause number) of the reference destination of the link. The reference location updating unit 265 to be updated is provided, and the link includes information representing the item identification information (for example, clause ID) or the identification number (for example, clause number) of the reference destination.

According to this configuration, when the clause number of the reference destination of the reference location is changed, the clause number described in the reference location is also updated accordingly. Therefore, when the clause number of the reference destination changes, the reference location is used. It is possible to reduce the labor of changing the description and reduce mistakes.

<Second embodiment>
Subsequently, the second embodiment will be described. In the first embodiment, the processing is performed on the server 2 side, but in the second embodiment, the processing is performed on the terminal (also referred to as a client) 1 in order to realize the processing with less time lag. For example, this process may be a process on the browser of the terminal if it is a Web application, or may be a process on the application if it is an application installed on the terminal 1 (so-called native application). However, if it is installed as an add-in of document editing software (for example, WORD), the processing may be performed on this document editing software. In order to realize it in the Web application, a program provided from the server (for example, Javascript) is executed by operating on the terminal 1. Here, the program provided from the server 1 (for example, Javascript) is an example of the program according to the present embodiment. In addition, this native application includes a program according to the present embodiment. Here, as an example, it will be described as operating in a Web application.

FIG. 11 is a schematic configuration diagram of a terminal according to the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 11, in the terminal 1b according to the second embodiment, the processor 16 is changed to the processor 16b and the processing content of the processor 16b is different from that of the terminal 1 of the first embodiment.
When the processor 16b receives a program (for example, Javascript) according to the present embodiment provided by the server 1, the processor 16b loads the program into the memory 24 and executes a series of instructions included in the program to control the holding. It functions as a unit 261, an extraction unit 262, an insertion unit 263, a number update unit 264, a reference location update unit 265, and a communication control unit 266. These processes are the same as those in the first embodiment.

However, the clause number is linked by the processor 16b in real time not only when importing a file (for example, WORD) but also when inputting a character string with an editor (including pasting a character string by copy and paste, etc.). Will be done. Further, the update button B3 shown in FIGS. 4 and 7 is unnecessary, and the processor 16b executes the replacement of numbers (for example, clause numbers) in real time when the chunks of sentences (specifically, for example, clauses) are replaced. do. This processing can be realized in real time because the processing is performed on the terminal 1 side instead of the server 2.

Further, as in the reference table T1 of FIG. 5, the storage unit for registering the clause ID, the clause number, and the set of contents (also referred to as a set) is not necessarily on the server 1 side (for example, the storage 23 of the server 1). It is not necessary, and it may be held in the memory 14 of the terminal 1. Further, the information corresponding to the clause ID, the clause number, and the set of contents may be directly embedded in the HTML tag instead of being stored in the storage unit.

In this way, the retention control unit 261 causes the document data having the identification number to retain the clause identification information for identifying the clause, the information representing the clause number, and the content of the clause in association with each other for each clause. Here, holding includes storage in a storage unit (for example, storage or memory) and embedding in a tag.
When the document data after inserting the link is edited, the clause number updating unit 264 updates the information representing the held clause number by using the edited document data.

Further, when the clause is deleted in the document data after the link is inserted, the number updating unit 264 deletes the retained corresponding data or sets a deletion flag.
The reference location update unit 265 refers to the retained information, and if the clause of the clause number indicated by the reference location in which the link is inserted is deleted, the reference destination is deleted. Change to include identifying information.

In each embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, terminals 1 and 1b may have a graphical user interface (also referred to as GUI) for enabling / disabling (on / off) automatic tracking of clause numbers. FIG. 12 is an example of a graphical user interface for enabling / disabling (on / off) automatic tracking of clause numbers. As shown in FIG. 12, when the cursor is placed on the reference point where the link is inserted (“Article 5” in the example of FIG. 12), for example, this reference point is highlighted and the item number automatic tracking setting screen is displayed in a pop-up. Is displayed. In this section number automatic tracking setting screen, the processor 16b of the terminal accepts switching between valid and invalid of automatic tracking of the clause number (also referred to as the section number) from the user.

As a result, if the automatic tracking of the clause number (also called the clause number) is disabled, the processor 16b can change the clause number of the reference destination at the reference point referring to the other clause. , Do not change the clause number of the reference part to the changed clause number of the reference destination, and leave it as it is. On the other hand, when the automatic tracking of the clause number (also referred to as the clause number) is enabled, the processor 16b automatically automatically follows the clause number (also referred to as the clause number) when the clause number of the reference destination changes at the reference point referring to the other clause. Change the clause number of the reference part to the changed clause number of the reference destination. Here, it is assumed that this clause number automatic tracking function is turned on by default, but it may be turned off by default.

Here, as an example, when the cursor is placed on the reference location (“Article 5” in the example of FIG. 12), the article number automatic tracking setting screen pops up, but the reference location (FIG. 12) is not limited to this. In the example of, it may be when "Article 5") itself is selected (for example, left-clicking or right-clicking).

The reference point where the link is inserted may be highlighted even before the cursor is placed. Further, the reference part where the link is inserted is not limited to being highlighted before or after the cursor is placed, and may be displayed in a color different from other parts (for example, blue). It may be underlined or the like, and may be displayed in a manner visually identifiable by the user.

In addition to or changing the automatic tracking of the clause number to enable / disable (on / off), for example, on the pop-up screen, the inserted link (reference) is deleted or the link (reference) is newly added. It may be possible to set it.

As described above, in each embodiment, when the identification number (for example, clause number) of the reference destination is changed, the processors 16 and 16b automatically change the identification number (for example, clause number) of the reference portion. Display control of the user interface that accepts the input to disable the function to change to the later identification number (for example, clause number) (in this case, it is enabled / disabled as an example). In other words, the processors 16 and 16b function as means for displaying and controlling a user interface in which the update of the reference point updating unit 265 can be disabled (here, as an example, valid / disabled). According to this configuration, the user can disable the automatic tracking at the reference point where the identification number (for example, the clause number) is not to be automatically tracked.

In each embodiment, the identification number is updated when the line with the identification number is replaced (for example, when Article 1 and Article 2 are replaced, or when Article 1 (2) and Article 1 (3) are replaced). It may occur not only by adding or deleting lines with identification numbers, but also by adding or deleting lines with identification numbers. For example, if a line with an identification number representing a paragraph is inserted between Article 1, Paragraph 2 and Article 1, Paragraph 3, the identification number of the inserted line will be Article 1, Paragraph 3, and originally The identification number that was in Article 1, Paragraph 3 will be updated to Article 1, Paragraph 4.
