When the management server 1 transmits the search instruction to the concept organization space management server 2, the concept organization space management server 2 updates the title of the concept organization space registered from the concept organization space information storage unit 51, the creation user, the creation date, and the update. Attribute information such as date and time is extracted and transmitted to the management server 1. When the management server 1 receives the conceptual arrangement space attribute information, the management server 1 transmits the conceptual arrangement space attribute information to the terminal 200, and the terminal 200 displays the received conceptual arrangement space attribute information on the communication list display screen 620.

By selecting an arbitrary one from the list of conceptual arrangement spaces displayed on the communication list display screen 620, a display command for the selected conceptual arrangement space is transmitted to the management server 1. The management server 1 transmits the concept rearrangement space display command to the concept rearrangement space management server 2, and the concept rearrangement space management server 2 transmits the concept rearrangement space coordinate system, coordinate origin, and coordinate axis direction from the concept rearrangement space information storage unit 51. Then, the coordinate information of the conceptual object and the coordinate information of the conversation are extracted and transmitted to the management server 1. Upon receiving the information, the management server 1 transmits a search command for the concept object data, conversation text data, and attached file data to the concept related data storage server 6. Upon receiving the search command, the concept related data storage server 6 extracts the concept object data from the concept object storage unit 54 and extracts the text data and attached file data from the conversation storage unit 55 and transmits them to the management server 1.
The management server 1 transmits the concept object data from the concept object storage unit 54 received from the concept related data storage server 6 and the display information such as the text data and attached file data from the conversation storage unit 55 to the terminal 200. Upon receiving the coordinate information and the display information, the terminal 200 displays the concept organization space, the concept organization space title, the concept object, and the conversation on the concept organization space operation screen 630.

When a user creates a peer concept object for a concept object arranged in the concept arrangement space 610 displayed on the concept arrangement space operation screen 630, a new concept object is created by designating the same arrangement plane as the existing concept object. Perform the operation. On the other hand, when creating an upper or lower concept object for a concept object placed in the concept organizing space 610, a new placement plane is created in the upper or lower direction of the existing concept object, and then the concept object is placed on the new placement plane. Execute the operation to create.
Hereinafter, an example of the flow of operations and processes for creating a new concept object in the concept organizing space 610 will be described.

FIG. 8 shows an example of a screen for creating a new concept object 614 in the concept organization space 610.

When the concept object creation button 701 on the concept organization space operation screen 630 is depressed, the program of the concept object creation means 83 of the terminal 200 displays the concept object creation menu 640.
The arrangement coordinates of the conceptual object are determined by directly inputting the XYZ coordinate values into the conceptual object arrangement coordinate input field 801 or by the user specifying the arrangement plane and the coordinate designation on the arrangement plane using a pointing device such as a mouse (hereinafter referred to as the arrangement object arrangement coordinates). Called new conceptual object placement coordinates). At this time, the Z coordinate always takes a value of nL (n is an integer, and L is an arrangement plane interval value).
Subsequently, the user selects an arbitrary type of conceptual object data from the conceptual object data selection field 802. When drawing a figure directly in the conceptual arrangement space 610, the figure drawing in the conceptual object data selection field 802 is designated, an arbitrary drawing method is selected, and the drawing is performed in the conceptual arrangement space 610 by a pointing device such as a mouse or key operation. As a result of the drawing operation, the program of the conceptual object creating means 83 of the terminal 200 executes a process of drawing a graphic having the new conceptual object placement coordinate as the central coordinate.

When designating a file stored in the storage device 300 connected to the concept organizing apparatus 1000 via the network 500, the file designation in the concept object data selection field 801 is selected and the address of the storage area in which the file is stored is input. As a result, the file in which the program of the conceptual object creating means 83 of the terminal 200 is designated is displayed at the new conceptual object arrangement coordinates.
When only the pasted word / phrase is selected, a process of arranging only the text input as a word / phrase pasting described later at the new concept object placement coordinates is executed.

When the file specified by the file specifying operation is 3D data, when the management server 1 receives the 3D data from the storage device 300, the management server 1 transmits the 3D data to the conceptual object capture management server 3. Upon receiving the 3D data, the conceptual object capture management server 3 converts the data into a data format that can be handled by the conceptual organizing apparatus 1 by the conceptual object format conversion means 74 and transmits it to the management server 1. When the management server 1 receives the 3D data whose data format has been converted, the management server 1 transmits the 3D data to the terminal device 200, and the terminal device 200 displays the 3D data on the designated arrangement surface of the conceptual object creation screen 640.

If the specified file is 2D data, the 2D data extracted from the storage device 300 by the operation of the terminal 200 is transmitted to the conceptual object capture management server 3 via the management server 1, and the conceptual object capture management server is transmitted. 3 may be converted into an image data format that can be handled by the concept organizing apparatus 1000 by the conceptual object format conversion means 74, or the software of the terminal 200 is created by software that creates the 2D data by operating the terminal 200. It may be displayed on the display screen, and the display screen may be stored as image data that can be handled by the concept organizing apparatus 1000 using the screen capture function of the terminal 200 and transmitted to the concept object capture management server 1. .

The conceptual object capture management server 3 determines a three-dimensional coordinate system and coordinate origin using the conceptual object coordinate determination means 73 for the received 2D data, and stores it in the conceptual object capture storage unit 52 of the conceptual object capture management server 3. By saving, 2D data can be handled in a three-dimensional coordinate space.

With respect to the concept object 614 created in the concept organizing space 610 by the above operation, a phrase for clarifying the target concept is input to the pasted phrase input field 803 by free input or stored in the word storage unit 53. By selecting an arbitrary phrase from the classification of knowledge terms, the terminal 200 executes a process of displaying the phrase on the surface of the concept object 614.
When only the pasted phrase is selected in the conceptual object data selection field 802, only the text of the input phrase is displayed in the new conceptual object arrangement coordinates.

In order to clarify the meaning of the phrase attached to the concept object, the concept description may be input in the concept description description field 804 by a method of freely inputting a sentence.
Through the above operation, the concept object 614 that clarifies the concept of the target to be organized is created.

The concept organization space management number, the shape information of the concept object 614 created in the concept organization space, the coordinate information, the pasted phrase information, and the concept explanation information are transmitted to the management server 1 when the user presses the registration button 805. The management server 1 transmits each piece of information to the conceptual object storage server 4, and when the conceptual object storage server 4 receives the information, the data management system installed in the server has a unique concept object management in the concept organizing apparatus 1000. A number is determined, and each piece of information is stored in the conceptual object storage unit 54 based on the conceptual object management number. At the same time, the determined concept object management number and the arrangement coordinates in the concept organization space 610 are transmitted from the concept object storage server 4 to the management server 1, and the concept object management number and the concept object management number are used as a key. The coordinate information is stored in the conceptual arrangement space information storage unit 51 of the conceptual arrangement space management server 2.

When creating a superordinate concept object or a subordinate concept object of an existing concept object for the concept organizing space displayed on the concept organizing space operation screen 630, the concept object creating button on the concept organizing space operation screen 630 is pushed down to create an existing concept. After designating the object, the program of the concept object creating means 83 of the terminal 200 is set to the same coordinates as the displayed concept organizing space by the operation of designating arbitrary coordinates on the arrangement plane where the newly created concept object is arranged. A concept object creation screen 640 having a system is displayed.

The concept object creation method on the concept object creation screen 640 is performed in the same manner as in the above embodiment for creating a peer concept object or an independent concept object. After creating the concept object, the arrangement plane changing process for each existing concept object is executed by depressing the registration button on the concept object creation screen 640.

FIG. 9 shows a change in the arrangement plane of each existing conceptual object when the new arrangement plane 802 is inserted below the arrangement plane 801 in which the concept object “animal” 800 shown in FIG. 7 is arranged. FIG. FIG. 10 shows a flowchart of processing for changing the arrangement coordinates of an existing concept object when a new arrangement plane is inserted.

The user presses down the placement plane insertion button 702 on the screen of FIG. 7 displayed on the terminal 200 and designates the insertion position with a pointing device such as a mouse, and the placement plane insertion command and designated coordinates (X1, Y1, Z1). Is transmitted to the management server 1 (step S1 in FIG. 10). In this embodiment, in order to create a new arrangement plane between the arrangement plane 801 and the arrangement plane 619, the coordinates between the arrangement plane 801 and the arrangement plane 619 are designated.
The management server 1 transmits the command and coordinates to the conceptual organization space management server 2, and the conceptual organization space management server 2 executes all the concepts arranged in the conceptual organization space 610 by the program of the conceptual organization space generation means 71. The arrangement coordinate change process is executed for the object according to the flowchart of FIG.

The new arrangement plane is created on a plane parallel to the XY plane that satisfies the Z coordinate value Z = nL (Z1−L <nL <Z1, n is an integer, and L is the distance between the arrangement planes).

The program of the conceptual arrangement space generation means 71 acquires the coordinate values (Xk, Yk, Zk) of the conceptual object Rk arranged in the conceptual arrangement space 610 in step S6, and in step S7, the Z coordinate value Zk and a new arrangement are obtained. Compare the Z coordinate value nL of the surface. As a result, in step S8, coordinates (Xk, Yk, Zk-L) obtained by subtracting L from the Z coordinate value of the concept object satisfying Zk ≦ nL are determined as new coordinates, and the concept organization space information is used with the concept object management number as a key. Store in the storage unit 51.
The above processing is executed for all concept objects arranged in the concept organizing space 610, and the processing for changing the arrangement coordinates of the concept objects is completed.

At the same time, the conceptual organization space management server 2 transmits a display command of the conceptual object whose coordinates have been changed to the management server 1, and the management server 1 transmits the coordinate information of the changed conceptual objects to the terminal 200. The terminal 200 displays the conceptual object after changing the coordinates.

As a result of the above processing, a new placement surface 802 is inserted between the placement surface 801 and the placement surface 619 in FIG.
The coordinates within the arrangement plane of the concept object can be obtained by depressing the concept object coordinate change button 703 on the concept organizing space operation screen 630 and specifying the coordinates on the arrangement plane where the concept object exists by using a pointing device such as a mouse. The coordinates (XY coordinates) may be changed freely within the range.

FIG. 11 is a conceptual arrangement space in which a new conceptual object 614 is created with respect to the arrangement plane 802 of the conceptual arrangement space shown in FIG. 9 and the vertical relations between the conceptual objects are arranged by creating or deleting relationship lines between the conceptual objects. FIG.

Two relational lines can be created by depressing the relational line creation button 704 on the concept organizing space operation screen 630 in FIG. 7 and designating one conceptual object as the starting point and one or more conceptual objects as the end point of the relational line. The upper and lower relationships between the above conceptual objects are created. Examples are described below.

After pushing down the relation line creation button 704 on the concept organizing space operation screen 630 and selecting a concept object “carnivorous animal” as a start point of the relation line by a pointing device such as a mouse, “snake” and “spider” as end points of the relation line are selected. The concept object is specified. Through the above operation, the terminal 200 determines the upper and lower relations of the concept objects “carnivore”, “snake”, and “spider”, and creates a relationship line that connects “carnivore”, “snake”, and “spider”. The command is transmitted to the management server 1.

The management server 1 transmits the command to the concept organizing space management server 2, and the concept organizing space management server 2 performs “carnivorous” by a calculation process that compares the Z-axis coordinate values of “carnivore”, “snake”, and “spider”. "Animal" is recognized as the primary superordinate object of "snake" and "spider", and is -1 as the next value for "snake" in "carnivore" and -1 as the next value for "spider" in "carnivore" 1 is determined as the next numerical value for “carnivore” of “snake”, and 1 is determined as the next numerical value for “carnivorous animal” of “spider”, and each subsequent numerical value is transmitted to management server 1. The management server transmits the next numerical value information to the concept related data storage server 6, and the concept related data storage server 6 stores the next numerical information by using the concept object management number of each conceptual object as a key.

At the same time, the conceptual space management server 2 uses the coordinate information of the concept objects at the start and end points to start and end coordinates, line type, line color, and line of the relationship line connecting “carnivore” and “snake” and “spider”. Drawing information such as thickness (hereinafter referred to as relational line information) is determined, and the drawing information is stored in the concept organization space information storage unit 51 using the concept object management number of each concept object as a key. In addition, a display instruction for the relation line is transmitted to the management server 1. When the management server 1 receives the drawing information of the relation line, it transmits it to the terminal 200, and the terminal 200 displays the relation lines 620 and 621. (Figure 10 left)

When the coordinates of the concept object at the start point or end point of the relationship line are changed, the concept organizing space management server 2 executes a process for changing the drawing information of the relationship line at the same time. The subsequent relation line drawing information is stored in the conceptual arrangement space information storage unit 51 using the viewpoint and end point conceptual object management numbers as keys. In addition, the changed relation line drawing information and its display command are transmitted to the terminal 200.

The relationship line is deleted by depressing the relationship line deletion button 705 on the concept organizing space operation screen 630 in FIG. 7 and designating the relationship line to be deleted, thereby erasing the upper and lower relationships between the concept objects. Examples are described below.

The relationship line deletion button 705 on the conceptual space operation screen 630 is pressed down, and a relationship line 621 that connects “carnivores” and “spiders” is designated by a pointing device such as a mouse. As a result of the operation, the terminal 200 transmits the order value between the “carnivore” and the “spider” and the relation line deletion command to the management server 1. The management server 1 transmits the next numerical value erasure command to the concept related data storage server 6, and the concept related data storage server 6 reads “concept” from the concept object storage unit 54 based on the concept object management numbers of “carnivore” and “spider”. The next value of “carnivorous” for “spider” and the next value of “spider” for “carnivorous” are retrieved and deleted.

In addition, the management server 1 transmits the relation line erasing command to the concept organizing space management server 2, and the concept organizing space management server 2 draws the relation line 621 based on the concept object management numbers of “carnivorous animal” and “spider”. Information is retrieved from the conceptual arrangement space information storage unit 51 and deleted. At the same time, a display erasure command for the relationship line 621 is transmitted to the management server 1. Upon receiving the command, the management server 1 transmits it to the terminal 200, and the terminal 200 erases the display of the relation line 621. (Figure 10 right)

By the above processing, the upper and lower relations of the concept objects connecting “carnivores” and “spiders” are deleted.

FIG. 12 shows the conceptual arrangement space shown in the left diagram of FIG. 11 rotated about the Z axis and viewed from the negative direction of the Y axis. The conceptual object in the conceptual arrangement space is defined as an X1Z1 plane based on the conceptual object 800. It is the figure which moved the coordinate up.

The user can collectively change the arrangement of the concept objects displayed in the concept organization space by selecting an alignment method from the concept object alignment menu 750 in FIG. The operation and processing flow are described below.

A search command for a method of batch changing the arrangement of concept objects that can be executed by the concept organizing apparatus 1000 when the user performs an operation of depressing the concept object alignment button 706 on the concept organizing space operation screen 630 of FIG. 7 displayed on the terminal 200. Is transmitted to the management server 1. The management server 1 transmits the command to the concept rearrangement space management server 2, and the concept rearrangement space management server 2 uses, for example, a planar arrangement and a circle as an arrangement batch change algorithm registered in advance in the program of the concept rearrangement space generation means 71. It detects that the upper arrangement algorithm is registered, and transmits the algorithm registration information to the management server 1. The management server 1 transmits the algorithm registration information to the terminal 200, and the terminal 200 displays a conceptual object alignment menu 750 on the display screen.

When the user depresses the plane arrangement button 751 of the conceptual object alignment menu 750 and executes an operation of designating an arbitrary conceptual object, for example, the conceptual object “animal” 800, the arrangement of the lower conceptual objects based on the conceptual object 800 is performed. The change command and the coordinate axis direction of the concept organizing space 610 displayed on the screen of the terminal 200 by the user are transmitted to the management server 1. The management server 1 transmits the command and the information on the coordinate axis direction to the conceptual arrangement space management server 2, and the conceptual arrangement space management server 2 executes the plane arrangement algorithm registered in the program of the conceptual arrangement space generation means 71. The plane placement algorithm derives a plane parallel to the display screen of the user's terminal 200 and having the concept object 800 from the information on the coordinate axis direction and the coordinates of the concept object 800, and subordinate concept objects of the concept object 800 on the plane. The process of moving the coordinates of.

Subsequently, the concept organization space management server 2 transmits a display command of the arrangement change result and coordinate information of each concept object to the management server 1, and the management server 1 transmits the command and coordinate information to the terminal 200. The terminal 200 receives the coordinate information and displays the concept object after the coordinate change in the concept organizing space 610.

The left figure of FIG. 13 rotates the conceptual arrangement space of the left figure of FIG. 11 about the X axis and is seen from the positive direction of the Z axis, and the user depresses the circumferential arrangement button 752 of the alignment menu 750 to display the conceptual object. By designating 800, the coordinate of the subordinate conceptual object arranged on the lower arrangement plane from the conceptual object 800 is moved on the circumference around the conceptual object 800. In the right side of FIG. 13, when the user depresses an arrangement button 752 on the circumference of the alignment menu 750 and designates the concept object 810, the subordinate concept objects arranged on the lower arrangement plane from the concept object 810 are displayed. The coordinates are moved on a circle centered at.

Similar to the above-described planar arrangement processing, the user depresses the arrangement button 752 on the circumference of the arrangement menu 750 and designates the concept object 800, so that it is registered in the concept arrangement space generation unit 71 program in the concept arrangement space management server 2. Execute a circular placement algorithm. The circle arrangement algorithm is defined in advance in the program of the conceptual arrangement space generation means 71 with the intersection coordinates of each arrangement plane and the straight line drawn perpendicularly to the arrangement plane from the coordinates of the designated concept object 800 as the center coordinates. The terminal 200 displays the coordinate change result in the concept organizing space by drawing a circle on each placement plane at the interval R and moving the coordinates of the subordinate concept objects of the concept object 800 on the circumference. .

In this way, by displaying the lower concepts on the circumference and changing the arrangement of the lower concepts on the circumference using a pointing device such as a mouse, the lower concepts can be easily grouped.

As shown in FIG. 13, when the conceptual organization space is viewed from the Z-axis direction, the vertical relationship of the concepts is visually determined by increasing the display of the conceptual object positioned in front of the display screen of the terminal 200. It may be displayed in an easy-to-understand manner.

The left figure of FIG. 14 is the figure which rotated the conceptual arrangement space which performed the planar arrangement | positioning of FIG. 12 centering on the Z-axis, and was seen from the positive direction of the X-axis.
When there are a plurality of conceptual objects having the same Y coordinate on the same arrangement surface, the conceptual object having the largest Z component of the coordinates is preferentially displayed. Alternatively, a concept object designated as a concept object in which a specific user is interested may be displayed with priority.

Thus, by displaying the representative concept objects arranged on the same arrangement plane and the explanation of the concept, the outline of the concept system can be grasped.

The right diagram of FIG. 14 shows the coordinates of the conceptual object 810 and the conceptual object 811 by depressing the conceptual object coordinate change button 703 of FIG. 7 and executing the coordinate movement operation on the conceptual display space of the screen display state of FIG. It is the figure which moved on the plane of the arrangement | positioning surface 3. FIG.
In this way, by individually moving the coordinates of the concept objects existing on a specific arrangement plane, the relationship between the concept objects and the upper and lower concept objects can be displayed in an easy-to-understand manner. For example, by changing the coordinates of the concept object as shown in the left diagram of FIG. 14, “carnivore” is a classification of animals from a different viewpoint than “chordidae” and “arthropod”, “arthropod” It can be understood at a glance that there is no intermediate classification such as “reptile” in “chordidae” between animal species such as “spider”.

By placing peer concept objects on one placement plane as described above, and changing the concept placement automatically or manually according to the direction of the viewing coordinate axis, complex conceptual relationships can be maintained while maintaining the hierarchical relationship of the concepts. Can be displayed and organized in an easy-to-understand manner.

FIG. 15 shows an example of a screen when the derived concept organization space is created.

When the user presses the derivative concept space creation button 707 on the concept space operation screen 630 displayed on the terminal 200, a derivative concept space creation command is transmitted to the concept space management server 2, and the concept space management server 2. By the derived concept rearrangement space generation means 78, the terminal 200 displays a derived concept rearrangement space creation screen 650.

The process of specifying the coordinate system, the coordinate origin, and the coordinate axis direction when creating the derived concept rearrangement space is performed in the same manner as the process for creating the concept rearrangement space described above.

By depressing the copy button 651 of the derivation concept organizing space creation screen 650 and designating a concept object existing in the concept organizing space of the derivation concept organizing space operation screen 630, the concept object is duplicated in the derived concept organizing space. Execute the process. At that time, when the coordinate system of the derived concept rearrangement space and the original concept rearrangement space are the same, the concept object copied by coordinate movement is displayed in the derived concept rearrangement space, and when the coordinate systems are different, the concept of the concept rearrangement space management server 2 is displayed. The arrangement space coordinate conversion means 72 performs a process of converting from the coordinate system of the derivation concept arrangement space to the coordinate system of the derivation concept arrangement space, and displays the copied concept object in the derivation concept arrangement space.
Alternatively, a new concept object may be created in the derived concept organizing space, and the concept object or conversation arranged in the concept organizing space of the derivation source may be referred to from the new concept object.

To create a conceptual object in the derived conceptual arrangement space, the terminal 200 displays a conceptual object creation menu 640 (FIG. 8) by an operation of depressing the conceptual object creation button 653 of the user. The concept object creation operation and processing for the derived concept organization space is performed in the same manner as the concept object creation operation and processing for the concept organization space described above.

Next, the new conceptual object A created in the derived conceptual arrangement space is designated, and the reference object designation button 652 is pushed down to designate the conceptual object B in the derived conceptual arrangement space displayed on the conceptual arrangement space operation screen 630. The reference-related storage command is transmitted to the management server 1 by the user operation. The management server 1 transmits the command and the conceptual object management number of the conceptual objects A and B to the conceptual object storage server 4, and the conceptual object storage server 4 adds the conceptual object management number of the reference object conceptual object B to the reference destination conceptual object. The conceptual object management number of A and the conceptual object management number of the referenced conceptual object A are associated with the conceptual object management number of the conceptual object B of the reference source, and the reference relationship between the conceptual objects is stored in the conceptual object storage unit 54. .

Furthermore, a concept object copied or newly created in the derived concept organization space may be moved to coordinates on any placement plane in the derived concept organization space using a pointing device such as a mouse by depressing the coordinate movement button. . As a result of the coordinate movement operation by the user, a concept object movement command passes through the management server 1, and the coordinate values on the coordinate axes x, y, and z are calculated by the conceptual arrangement space coordinate conversion means 72, and the coordinate values are converted into the conceptual arrangement. It is stored in the spatial information storage unit 51.

The derived concept rearrangement space created by the above operation is stored in the concept rearrangement space information storage unit 51 in association with the concept rearrangement space of the derivation source and the concept rearrangement space management number as a key.

Further, by the same process, the concept object arranged in the derived concept arrangement space can be displayed on the coordinates on the arbitrary arrangement plane of the arbitrary concept arrangement space by coordinate movement, coordinate conversion or reference.

By creating the derived concept arrangement space as described above, for example, only necessary concept objects can be extracted from the concept arrangement space having a complicated hierarchical relationship, and the concepts can be arranged. Further, since it is possible to aggregate concept objects between a plurality of concept organizing spaces, for example, it is possible to aggregate concept objects that are not directly related from a plurality of concept organizing spaces and to consider the concepts from different viewpoints. In addition, the relationship between the concept objects created, edited, and organized in the derived concept organizing space can be aggregated in the concept organizing space of the derivation source and reflected in the concept system of the derivation source.

FIG. 16 shows an example of a screen on which the concept object 622 is examined using conversation and 2D data or 3D data. An example in which a conversation 627 is created for the concept object 622 and its subordinate concept objects 623 will be described below.

The program of the feature point conversation description means 84 of the terminal 200 causes the terminal 200 to display the conversation description column 660 by depressing the conversation target designation button 710 on the concept organization space operation screen 630 and designating the concept objects 622 and 623. The user inputs a free sentence in the conversation description field 660 by a method of inputting a free sentence. At this time, the conversation category selection button 662 may be depressed to display the knowledge terms extracted from the word storage unit by the concept related data storage server 6 on the terminal 200, and the conversation classification name may be selected from the knowledge terms.

Subsequently, the conversation display coordinate designation button 661 is pressed down, and appropriate coordinates in the concept organizing space are designated by the pointing device.

Appropriate coordinates in this case are coordinates determined by the user who arranges the conversation based on the relative arrangement relationship with other conversations and concept objects in consideration of the axis names and the upper and lower concepts. When describing a conceptual object or conversation existing on one arrangement plane, or a conversation targeting a feature point, the user designates and determines appropriate X and Y coordinates on the arrangement plane. In addition, when describing a concept object or conversation existing on a plurality of arrangement planes, or a conversation targeting feature points, the user designates and determines appropriate X coordinates, Y coordinates, and Z coordinates between the arrangement planes. .

For example, in FIG. 15, when the user D describes the conversation 627 for the conceptual objects 622 and 623, the user D has the description content not related to the intensity as the Y coordinate, with the coordinate specified by the user D as the X coordinate. Therefore, the coordinate between the lower concept object 623 and the higher concept object 622 is designated with 0 as the Z coordinate.

A conversation creation command and a storage command are transmitted to the management server 1 by the user's conversation display coordinate designation operation.
When receiving the conversation storage command, the management server 1 transmits the management number of the conceptual objects 622 and 623 designated as the conversation target, the text information of the conversation, and the classification information to the concept related data storage server 6. The concept related data storage server 6 determines a unique conversation management number in the concept organizing apparatus 1000 for the conversation by a data management system installed in the server, and the text information and classification information of the conversation together with the conversation management number. Store in the storage unit 55. Also, the concept object designated as the conversation target is recognized as a higher conversation target, and −1 is determined as the next numerical value for the conversation conceptual objects 622 and 623, and 1 is determined as the next numerical value for the conversation of the conceptual objects 622 and 623. The next numerical values are stored in the conceptual object management number and the conversation management number.

At the same time, the concept-related data storage server 6 transmits the determined conversation management number to the management server 1, and the management server 1 manages the management number and coordinate information of the concept object designated as the conversation target together with the conversation creation command, and the conversation management. The number, coordinate information, and text information are transmitted to the conceptual space management server 2. The conceptual arrangement space management server 2 determines the drawing information of the relationship lines 644 and 645 from the coordinates of the conceptual objects 622 and 623 designated as the conversation target by the conceptual arrangement space generation means 71 and the coordinate information of the conversation, and uses them as the conversation management number. The coordinate information of the conversation and the drawing information of the relationship lines 644 and 645 are associated with each other and stored in the conceptual arrangement space information storage unit 51. At the same time, the conversation text and the display command of the relation lines 644 and 645 are transmitted to the management server 1, and the management server 1 transmits the conversation and relation line display information to the terminal 200. Lines 644 and 645 are displayed.

At this time, a conversation or a feature point may be designated as a conversation target.

FIG. 17 shows a screen example when FIG. 16 is switched to the display of the viewpoint viewed from the Y3 axis direction and the Z3 axis direction with the concept object 622 as the center.

From the viewpoint of the Y3 axis direction and the Z3 axis direction, visually understand what the specific user is talking about the concept object 622 with the Y3 axis direction component or the Z3 axis direction component. be able to. For example, from the viewpoint of the left figure in FIG. 17, user B says that “strength is uneasy” in the solid core structure, whereas user C has a solid core structure using wood A based on the content of user D. If there is, it can be understood that “the strength is sufficient”. In addition, from the viewpoint of the right side of FIG. 17, from the remark of user D that associates conceptual object 622 and its subordinate conceptual object 623, user D cares about the material when examining the structure of the top board. Can understand. If a plurality of conversations are displayed overlapping each other at this time, the latest conversation is automatically displayed in front. Alternatively, a conversation designated as a conversation of interest by a specific user may be preferentially displayed on the front. The above display change is stored in the conceptual space management server 2.

As described above, conversations are arranged and arranged in the direction of each coordinate axis in the concept arrangement space, and by switching the viewpoint, it is possible to organize and understand the contents of discussion and discussion on the concepts in a spatial arrangement. it can.

Hereinafter, the coordinates of a point designated by a person as a concept or conversation target in 2D data or 3D data are referred to as feature points, and 2D data (books, documents, photos, videos, diagrams, layouts) for which feature points are created 2D digital data created by software that creates, edits and records digital data in 2D coordinate systems such as drawings, design drawings, punch pictures, MRI, X-rays, CT, etc., or snapshots of the display screen of 3D digital data, Display data for printing, etc.) and 3D data (3D data created and edited by CAD systems, CG systems, etc., 3D data and CT measured using 3D measuring instruments based on laser, ultrasonic and other measurement techniques , 3D data, etc. obtained by converting 2D data measured by measurement techniques used in medical equipment such as MRI into 3D data) The actual object is displayed in the conceptual organization space as a representative example indicated by the conceptual object, or as a concrete example referred to by the conversation, and a feature point is created to represent the conceptual object or conversation and the feature point. By associating with the relationship line, the actual object and the concept object or conversation can be related and displayed in the concept organizing space.

The target data for creating feature points is pushed by pressing the feature point creation target data designation button 708 on the concept organizing space operation screen 630, and the target data is stored outside the concept object storage unit 54 or the concept organizing apparatus 1000 via a network. By designating from the file stored in 300 and designating the coordinates in the concept organizing space for displaying the data, the concept organizing apparatus 1000 executes the process of displaying the data at the designated coordinates in the concept organizing space. .
The display processing of 2D data and 3D data in the concept organizing space is performed in the same manner as in the above-described embodiment in which 2D data and 3D data stored in the storage device 300 as concept objects are displayed in the concept organizing space.

FIG. 18 shows an example of plotting feature points on a real object in a three-dimensional coordinate space. The left figure of FIG. 18 shows the result of creating feature points on the surface of a rectangular parallelepiped. Since it is difficult for a human to visually grasp the feature point with the terminal 200 simply by indicating the coordinate (x, y, z) of the orthogonal coordinate system, the feature point is, for example, the coordinate (x, y, z) of the surface of the rectangular parallelepiped. And a spherical shape with a radius r centered at. The shape for specifying the feature points in this way is hereinafter referred to as a feature point geometric shape type. Further, 33 is referred to as a feature point lead line in the following.

The drawing of the feature points on the actual object of 2D data in the three-dimensional coordinate space is as follows. The 2D data is a two-dimensional plane having only two x-axis and y-axis elements in the orthogonal coordinate system of the three-dimensional coordinate space. Since it can be displayed as simple data, it can be performed in the same manner as the above method. Alternatively, 2D data is displayed on the three-dimensional coordinate space by designating an arbitrary plane on the three-dimensional coordinate space and transferring information on each coordinate point of the 2D data to the coordinate point on the designated plane. You may let them.

FIG. 19 shows an example of a screen for creating a feature point 5000 for 3D data A in the concept organization space. For the 3D data A displayed on the screen, the user designates the coordinates where the feature point A is to be created by a pointing device such as a mouse or key operation. The designated coordinates (x1, y1, z1) are created in the same coordinate system as the coordinate origin 4000 of the 3D data A. At this time, when 3D data A is a surface model and the knowledge that a feature point means the surface is recorded, the calculation to find the coordinates of the feature point geometric type sphere in the surface surface In processing, the feature point coordinates (x1, y1, z1) may be obtained by calculation, or the feature point is determined at the specified coordinates by the user's pointing device or key operation, and only the feature point classification is called, for example, a surface A method of clarifying the meaning of the target portion indicating knowledge may be used.

When creating feature points in the 2D data actual object in the concept organizing space, the 2D data extracted from the storage device 300 by the operation of the terminal 200 is transmitted to the conceptual object capture management server 2 via the management server 1 and the concept. It may be converted into a data format in which a specific coordinate system that can be handled by the concept organizing apparatus 1000 can be set by the conceptual object format conversion means 74 of the object acquisition management server 2 or the operation of the terminal 200 The 2D data is displayed on the display screen of the terminal 200 using the software that created the 2D data, and the display screen is saved as image data that can be handled by the concept organizing apparatus 1000 using the screen capture function of the terminal 200. , It may be transmitted to the conceptual object capture management server 2.

The conceptual object capture management server 2 uses the conceptual object coordinate determination means 73 for the received 2D data to convert the coordinate system held by the 2D data in the storage device 300 into the orthogonal coordinate system which is the default coordinate system and the coordinate origin. By saving in the concept object take-in storage unit 52 of the concept object take-in management server 2, 2D data can be handled in a three-dimensional coordinate space. Thereby, feature points can be created in 2D data in a three-dimensional coordinate space in the same manner as described above.

An embodiment of a method for drawing the feature point 5000 for the 3D data A in the conceptual arrangement space will be described below.

After the feature point 5000 is determined, a feature point lead line, which is a line segment drawn from the feature point 5000, is drawn by the user's operation from the terminal. At this time, the program of the terminal 200 displays the characteristic line on the user terminal 200 according to the selection result of the line type, thickness, and the like by the user terminal 200.

Subsequently, a confirmation message for the user, such as whether or not to register the feature point A, is displayed on the screen of the terminal 200 by the program of the terminal 200, and the information is obtained by the user operation of the registration execution. 200 to the concept organizing apparatus 1000 via the network 500. When the transmitted new feature point information is received by the concept organizing apparatus 1000, a characteristic that is unique in the concept organizing apparatus 1000 defined in advance by the data management system installed in the concept related data storage server 6. Based on the point management number rule, a feature point management number 1000100 unique to the feature point A in the concept organizing apparatus 1000 is determined.

This feature point management number 1000100 includes, for example, the coordinate system in which the feature point is created, the A coordinate (x1, y1, z1) of the feature point, and the B coordinate (x2, y2) of the other end point of the feature line. , z2), the date and time when the feature point was created, etc. are saved. After the concept related data storage server 6 completes these processes, the determined feature point management number 1000100 is transmitted to the user terminal 200 via the network. The program of the terminal 200 displays the information on the feature point management number 1000100 at the other end point B of the feature line displayed by the user operation on the 3D data A displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 200. With the above processing, the drawing of one feature point in 3D data is completed.

The user may describe the conversation for the feature point by designating the feature point management number 1000100 displayed at the end point of the feature line at the time of the conversation target designation operation. The description and display of the conversation for the feature points are performed in the same manner as the description and display of the conversation for the concept object.

For example, the concept object 622 shown in FIG. 16 is specified, the relation line creation button 704 is depressed, and the feature point head 625 created in the actual object 628 is designated as the end point of the relation line. Thus, the process of drawing the relationship line 626 between the coordinates between the two points is executed by the program of the conceptual space management server 2. At the same time, the feature point 625 is stored in the concept object data storage unit 54 using the concept object management number as a key, with the feature point 625 as a lower feature point of the concept object 622. Further, the conceptual object 622 is stored in the conceptual object data storage unit 54 as the primary higher level conceptual object of the feature point 625, and the degree information is stored using the feature point management number as a key. The position coordinates of the entity object in the concept organization space and the relationship line information between the concept object and the entity object are stored in the concept organization space management server 2.

Relationships with feature points can be made not only for conceptual objects but also for conversations.

FIG. 20 is an example of a screen for managing information in the concept organization space by grouping the information by designating information in the concept organization space and assigning a name to the group.

When the user depresses the information group registration button 712 on the conceptual organization space operation screen 630, the program of the terminal 200 displays the information group registration screen 680.
For example, in order to group and manage information related to the strength of the work desk top plate structure in a screen example of FIG. 20, the user is a conversation at the top in terms of strength. 631 is specified, and the condition 681 “from the specified conversation to the lower level” on the information group registration screen 680 is specified.

In addition, since the user arranges the conversation at coordinates according to the name of the axis, the conversation of specific contents can be grouped by specifying the area of the conversation coordinate.
For example, when the area on the arrangement surface 629 that satisfies Y <0 with respect to the coordinate axis X3′Y3′Z3 ′ centered on the conceptual object 622 and the coordinate origin is input to the area designation field 682, the strength is insufficient. It is possible to extract the coordinates of the conversation.

As described above, the group name is input to the group name entry field 683 for the concept object / feature point and the conversation existing in the spatial range of the order range specified by the user on the information group registration screen 680 and the conceptual organization space, By depressing the registration button 684, a group registration command is transmitted to the management server 1. The terminal 200, together with the command, the specified degree range and space range, the conceptual object / feature point existing in the range, each management number of the conversation, the information group name, the user of the user who executed the information group registration operation An ID (hereinafter referred to as group registration information) is transmitted to the management server 1. When the management server 1 receives the group registration command, it transmits the group registration information to the concept related data storage server 6 so that the concept related data storage server 6 receives a unique group management number by the data management system installed in the server. The group registration information is stored in the information group storage unit 58 using the group management number as a key.

Users automatically receive notifications when changes are made to conceptual objects, feature points, or conversations within the range specified during information group registration, or when new conceptual objects, feature points, or conversations are added within the range. This condition may be validated in the “Receive notification when information of specified range is changed” option 685 on the information group registration screen 680.

In this way, based on the information of interest in the conceptual arrangement space, the higher and lower orders and spatial regions from the information are registered as a block of information of interest, and the information within the specified range changes. By notifying the user, it is possible to accurately and timely obtain information that the user wants to know.

FIG. 21 is an information disclosure registration screen of the concept organizing apparatus 1000. When the user presses the information disclosure registration button 714 on the conceptual organization space operation screen 630 on the terminal 200, the program of the terminal 200 displays the information disclosure registration screen 660 of FIG. The user can restrict whether or not to disclose the designated information to a specific user by designating a range of information in the conceptual organization space on which information disclosure is restricted on the information disclosure registration screen 660.

Whether or not the user discloses information by entering the user name in the target designation field 661 of the information disclosure registration screen 660 or selecting the user name extracted from the user information storage unit 57 of the access control server 7 Specify the target user and the range of information to be disclosed. For example, by registering that the information within the second order from the designated feature point is disclosed for the feature point 1 in the feature point designation field 662, the concept object 622 that is the primary superordinate concept of the feature point 1 and the top of the concept object 622 are registered. The disclosure control means 77 of the concept-related data storage server 6 executes the restriction to disclose only the range up to the conversation 623 and the conversation 664, which are the primary subordinate conversations described in the concept object 663, the subordinate concept object 623, and the concept object 622. To do.

In this way, information disclosure registration information is transmitted from the terminal 200 to the management server 1 via the network 500, and the management server 1 instructs the concept related data storage server 6 to execute the disclosure control means 77. . In this disclosure control means 77, when the range of information is specified by the order, the concept object, conversation and feature point corresponding to the specified order range from the order information of the concept object, conversation and feature point are stored in the concept object data storage unit. 54 and the conversation storage unit 55, and transmits them to the concept organization space management server 2. When a coordinate area is specified, a cut surface of 2D data or 3D data is calculated from the area information by calculation processing, and a geometric shape of 2D data or 3D data is cut. The cut geometric shape is transmitted to the management server 1, and the management server 1 displays only the cut data on the user terminal 200 via the network 500. The user can confirm the display result and transmit information to the designated target.

In a general disclosure restriction method, a file such as 2D data or 3D data is a disclosure unit, and there is a problem that shape information more than necessary for security is transmitted. In the concept organizing apparatus 1000, the information disclosure in units of feature points is more detailed than the feature point description target data file as shown in the information disclosure registration screen 660 indicating whether or not the feature points 625 can be disclosed by the terminal 200. Can be managed. In addition, it can be viewed in a state where the relationship between the 2D data and the concepts related to the 3D data and the discussion under consideration is maintained, so for example, providing shape information of some parts of a 3D model to an external company, When requesting production of parts, by sharing the discussion with the shape information of the parts, it is possible to study the specifications of the parts together with an external company and improve the quality.

FIG. 22 shows an example of a search screen.

The program of the terminal 200 displays the search range designation screen 670 by depressing the search button 713 on the user's concept organization space operation screen 630. In the search process, for example, the user freely inputs a search word at the terminal 200, and the concept related data for searching the information in the display concept organizing space including the search word from the database of the concept related data storage server 6 is used. The search means 76 is executed.
As for the search result, the management server 1 causes the terminal 200 that has issued the search request to display the search result list 671 of FIG.

The method for retrieving the words designated by the user from the concept object data storage unit 54 or the conversation storage unit 55 may be, for example, a full-text search from text information, or mastered by the concept classification management means by the terminal 100 of FIG. By selecting a word from the category registered in FIG. 5 as an example, concept related data search means 76 for searching for a conversation described by selecting the category as the conversation category is executed.

Also, the search result list 671 in FIG. 22 is confirmed, and if there is a lot of unnecessary information, the specified concept object, feature points, and higher and lower orders based on the conversation can be specified, and the search area can be narrowed down to make it more accurate. It is possible to narrow down an area including necessary information.

For example, in order to grasp the content of examination of strength for the “solid core structure”, the user rotates the conceptual arrangement space and sees it from the viewpoint from the Z-axis direction, and the conversation about the strength develops in the Y-axis direction ( FIG. 17). From there, the concept object, conversation, and feature point that the user pays attention to regarding the strength are specified, and the concept object, conversation, and feature connected by, for example, a first-order relationship line based on the specified target concept object, conversation, and feature point. By designating points on the search range designation screen 670, only information around the designated target can be displayed. Understanding the relationship between conceptual objects, conversations, and feature points that were difficult to understand in a two-dimensional display by viewing a series of extracted information from various axis directions while rotating the concept organizing space be able to.

A search command for information by designating a concept object, feature point, or conversation from the terminal 200 and designating the degree is transmitted to the management server 1, and the management server 1 transmits the command to the concept-related data storage server 6. The concept related data storage server 6 uses the concept related data search means 76 to convert the target data having the designated degree of the designated range based on the specified concept object, feature point, or conversation into the concept object data storage unit 54 and the conversation storage unit 55. Search from. The search information is transmitted to the management server 1, and the management server 1 transmits a command for displaying only the search information on the concept organization space to the concept organization space management server 2. The concept rearrangement space management server 2 generates a concept rearrangement space that displays only the search information transmitted by the concept rearrangement space generation means 71 and displays it in the concept rearrangement space that is stored in relation to the display information of the space and the unique management number. The position coordinates for this are transmitted to the management server 1. The management server 1 transmits the received search information and space display information to the terminal 200, and the terminal 200 displays the search information in the search result list 671 and displays only the search results in the concept organizing space.

In addition, a concept organization space having a derivation relationship, a concept organization space having a reference relationship, a concept object, a feature point, and a conversation may be displayed in a search result list. For example, the user can see from the search result list 671 in FIG. 22 that the concept object “solid core structure” is quoted in “cost review”, which is a derived concept rearrangement space, so that it is displayed together with the derived concept rearrangement space. Thus, the top plate structure can be examined in many ways.

In this way, the user uses the terminal 200 to search for a necessary concept from the concept organizing apparatus 1000, visually displays a conversation about the concept and the concept, 2D data, and 3D data, and sees it from various axial directions. Can be organized and understood. In addition, by specifying the derived concept arrangement space and reference information displayed from the search results, information on the concept objects, feature points, and conversations currently being viewed from different concept arrangement spaces can be displayed. be able to. The user can visually understand by rearranging the concepts spatially, and can view and organize the concepts from various angles by following the derived concept organization space and reference information.

The present invention can be used in heavy industry, plant, shipbuilding, manufacturing industry for manufacturing vehicles, electricity, electronic products, etc., accumulation of patient chart information in medical treatment, movies, comics, animations, games, advertisements and education.
