Embodiment 1 FIG.
1 is a block diagram showing an electronic file production apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
The electronic file production apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1 has a function of reading a document 200 as input data and outputting a dynamic electronic file 300. The document reading means 101, the document structure analysis means 102, the data analysis means 103, and time information generation Means 104, time information editing means 105, data editing means 106, and dynamic electronic file output means 107 are provided.

  The document reading unit 101 is a unit that reads the document 200 as input data. The document structure analysis unit 102 is a unit that analyzes the document structure of the document 200 read by the document reading unit 101. The data analysis unit 103 is a unit that analyzes a display target data region that is a region for determining a display time from data such as a table, a figure, and an image extracted by the document structure analysis unit 102. The time information generation unit 104 is a unit that generates display time information of the display target data area based on the analysis result by the data analysis unit 103. The time information editing unit 105 is a unit that corrects the time information generated by the time information generation unit 104. The data editing means 106 is means for correcting, deleting, or adding new data extracted by the document structure analyzing means 102. The dynamic electronic file output unit 107 is a unit that outputs the dynamic electronic file 300 from the editing results by the time information editing unit 105 and the data editing unit 106.

Next, the flow of electronic file production according to the present embodiment will be described in detail using the flowchart of FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, first, the document reading unit 101 reads the document 200 into the electronic file production apparatus 100 (step ST1). Here, the document is, for example, a word processor that does not have a means for setting time information, such as Word (registered trademark / hereinafter, abbreviated) of Microsoft Corporation or Excel (registered trademark / hereinafter, abbreviated). This refers to documents created using software or spreadsheet software. An example of document data included in the document 200 is shown in FIG.

  Next, the document structure analyzing unit 102 analyzes the structure of the document 200 read by the document reading unit 101 (step ST2). Through structural analysis, a document can be decomposed into components such as paragraphs, headings, tables, figures, and images. In particular, Word and Excel after 2007 Microsoft Office (registered trademark) use the Office Open XML format, which makes it easy to configure document elements such as document properties, style sheets, graphs, hyperlinks, charts, and images. Can be analyzed.

  Next, data such as a table, a figure, and an image extracted by the document structure analysis in step ST2 is analyzed by the data analysis unit 103 (step ST3). By data analysis, the number of characters and matrices included in the table, the number of data included in the graph, the number of figures, characters, and images included in the figure are counted. Alternatively, the complexity of the graphic or image is analyzed based on a spatial frequency or the like that is a feature amount representing the complexity of the graphic or image. That is, the count result and the analysis result indicate the information amount of the display target data area that is a unit for determining the display time in the document 200.

  Next, the time information generation unit 104 generates data display time information from the analysis result of the data analysis unit 103 (step ST4). At this time, time information is assigned according to the number of elements constituting the data obtained from the analysis result by the data analysis means 103 and the complexity of the data. For example, a short display time is assigned to data with a small number of components and low complexity, and a long display time is assigned to data with a large number of components and high complexity. Thereby, data with a small amount of information can be displayed in a short time, and data with a large amount of information can be displayed in a long time.

Next, the time information editing unit 105 corrects the time information generated by the time information generation unit 104 (step ST5). At this time, the electronic file production apparatus 100 is designed so that, for example, the time information generated by the time information generation unit 104 and the relationship between the data are displayed in a table as shown in FIG. 4 and the display time parameter can be corrected. To do. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the data is displayed in a rectangular shape on the time axis, and the display time parameter is designed to be corrected by adjusting the display position and length of the rectangular shape by a mouse operation or the like. . Note that the display order of text data 1 → table data 1 → text data 2 → image data 1 corresponds to the order from the first page in the document 200.
As a result, the display time of each data is automatically generated, and as a result, the display time can be appropriately corrected when the overall time becomes too long or when high complexity data is to be displayed in a short time. .

  Next, the data editing unit 106 modifies, deletes, or adds new data extracted by the document structure analyzing unit 102 (steps ST6 and ST7). For example, when the relationship between the time information generated by the time information generation unit 104 and the data is displayed in a table as shown in FIG. 4, the order of the rows is changed, unnecessary rows are deleted, or new data is assigned. You can add additional lines. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, when data is displayed in a rectangular shape on the time axis, the order of the rectangles on the time axis is changed, unnecessary rectangles are deleted, or a rectangle assigned with new data is added. You can.

Also, the line assigned to the data in FIG. 4 or the rectangle assigned to the data in FIG. 5 is selected, and the data is displayed in another window as shown in FIG. 6, and the data itself is corrected, deleted, or added. You can also.
As described above, when the data editing unit 106 corrects, adds, or deletes data (step ST7: YES), the process returns to step ST3, and again performs data analysis, time information generation, time information editing, and changes the data. Update the corresponding time information.

  Next, the dynamic electronic file 300 is output from the editing results by the time information editing unit 105 and the data editing unit 106. Here, the dynamic electronic file 300 refers to a slide show, an animation, a moving image manual, or the like that can change the display content of the electronic file as time passes.

In the above example, the display target data area is a table, figure, image, or the like, but any area can be used as the display target data area. For example, the document structure analysis unit 102 can extract chapters and paragraphs of the document 200 and add time information to the collected data. An example will be described below.
First, the data analysis means 103 analyzes data included in chapters and paragraphs. Then, the time information generating unit 104 generates display time information of data included in the chapter or paragraph. Here, the text display time is generated from the text reading time and the number of characters. In addition, the total display time of the data and text included in the chapter or paragraph is assigned as the display time information of the chapter or paragraph.

  In the present invention, time information can also be added to a document heading. In this case, the data analysis unit 103 and the time information generation unit 104 generate the display time of the data included in the chapter and generate the text display time from the text reading time and the number of characters. Then, the total value of the display time of the data and text included in the chapter is allocated as the display time information of the chapter heading.

  FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing a part of the document 200. As shown in the figure, “Heading” is a word that is larger than the size of the text in the text and is located at the beginning of the chapter, and “Chapter” is a chapter or section separator such as a long sentence. Consists of paragraphs. A “paragraph” refers to one block in a sentence composed of a plurality of sentences. Generally, the beginning of a paragraph is indented by one character from the beginning of the line.

For example, in the example sentence shown in FIG. 7, the total value display time of the data and text display time included in paragraph 1 is 10 seconds, and the total value display time of the data and text display time included in paragraph 2 is 20 seconds. In this case, since chapter 1 is composed of paragraph 1 and paragraph 2, the display time is 30 seconds. At this time, “the total value of the display time of the data included in the chapter and the text is assigned as the display time information of the chapter heading”, so the display time of the heading 1 is also 30 seconds. FIG. 8 shows the display time of such headings and chapters, 801 shows the display time of the headings (= section display time), and 802 shows the display time of each paragraph.
When the dynamic electronic file 300 produced in this way is reproduced, among the time during which the heading 1 is displayed for 30 seconds, paragraph 1 is displayed for the first 10 seconds and paragraph 2 is displayed for the next 20 seconds (see FIG. Middle, indicated by 803). As described above, by switching between a plurality of paragraphs included in the same chapter while the chapter headings are displayed, the structure of the sentence can be displayed in the dynamic electronic file 300 in an easy-to-understand manner.

  Further, in the present invention, when editing is performed by the time information editing unit 105 and the data editing unit 106, predetermined time information such as a standard work time is set in advance, thereby setting the range of the set time information as a guideline. You can also assign time information to the data. For example, when the data display time exceeds the standard work time, a warning display can be issued to prompt the user to correct the time information.

  In the present invention, the editing result by the time information editing unit 105 and the data editing unit 106 can be browsed by the preview function. As a result, the dynamic electronic file produced from the edited result can be confirmed before output and appropriately corrected.

  Further, in the present invention, the editing results by the time information editing unit 105 and the data editing unit 106 can be stored in another location other than the document, such as a database. Thus, when another dynamic electronic file 300 is produced, the editing result can be called from the database and reused.
