Description

  The present disclosure relates to an examination work support device and an examination work support method for examining information input on a sheet surface.

  A technique has been proposed in which a form of document image data obtained by reading a document such as a contract or an application form is specified, and information is extracted from the document image data for each form (see Patent Document 1). In Patent Document 1, the information extracted from the document image data in the specified form is stored as it is or after being converted into text information by OCR (Optical Character Recognition) or the like.

JP, 2013-41539, A

  In order to examine the information entered in the document, it is necessary to rely on humans regardless of whether it is converted into text information by OCR or the like. Patent Document 1 does not particularly consider an efficient examination method for information entered in a document.

  For example, when a document has a plurality of input fields, it may be more efficient to have the input information in these input fields examined by different examination staffs in parallel. However, when a plurality of input fields of similar size are lined up in the document, there is a risk that each audit staff will make an error in the input fields to be reviewed.

  On the other hand, when there are relationships between a plurality of input fields in a document, it is desirable to examine them while comparing the input information in these input fields. However, if the related input fields are separated from each other in the document, or if there is another input field between the related input fields, grasp the input fields to be compared. It becomes difficult, and the examination accuracy of the examination staff deteriorates, and the examination takes time.

  Furthermore, when some information is input to a place other than the designated input field in the document, in the method of extracting only the determined form as in Patent Document 1, the information input to other than the input field May not be detected correctly. For example, if the condition for the examination is that there is a specific stamp or signature anywhere in the document, the presence or absence of the stamp or signature can be detected correctly even if the stamp or signature is in a place unrelated to the input field. There must be.

  The present disclosure has been made to solve the above-described problems, and provides an examination work support device and an examination work support method capable of efficient and complete examination, and improving examination accuracy and examination speed. To do.

An examination work support apparatus is provided, which comprises an examination result input unit for entering examination results of the plurality of input field areas and the outside of the entry field area.

  The examination classification unit may classify the plurality of input field areas based on at least one of the information entered in the plurality of input fields and the examination content.

  When there are two or more input field areas to be examined by the same examination staff, the first display control unit displays these two or more input field areas and masks the input field areas that are not subject to examination. You may go.

  The first display control unit may display an area other than the examination target input field area in a display color darker than the examination target input field area.

The second display control unit,
For an area other than the input field area, an extra-input-data extracting unit that extracts the input data outside the input field by obtaining a difference between the image data and the image data of the format data of the sheet surface may be provided. Good.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of an examination work support device 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a document of a contract which is an example of an examination target document. The examination work support device 1 of FIG. 1 is a device that supports the work of examining information input to various documents 2 such as contracts and application forms. In this device, it is mainly intended that a plurality of examination staffs examine the information input on the document (sheet surface) 2a of the document 2 by hand. Note that, depending on Document 2, there may be a case where only one examination staff examines. The document 2 to be examined does not necessarily have to be a paper medium, and may be a sheet member such as resin.

  The document 2a of the document 2 to be examined is provided with a plurality of input fields 3 as shown in FIG. The frames of these input fields 3 are printed in advance on the document 2a, and each input field 3 is input by handwriting or by typing. In some cases, at least some of the input fields 3 are stamped with a seal or stamp.

  Further, there may be a case where a memo writing 4, a sticky note, a seal stamp or a stamp is imprinted, or a signature is inputted at an arbitrary place on the document 2a of the document 2 in FIG. Here, the arbitrary location means that it does not necessarily depend on the input field 3. The memo writing 4 may be manually input or typed.

  The examination work support apparatus 1 of FIG. 1 includes a computerization section 11, a document identification section 12, an examination classification section 13, a first display control section 14, a second display control section 15, and an examination result input section 16. The examination result storage unit 17 is provided.

  The computerization section 11 electronically images the document 2a having a plurality of input fields 3 to generate image data 21. The computerization section 11 generates the image data 21 using a scanner having a line sensor, an image sensor for capturing a two-dimensional plane, or the like.

  The document specifying unit 12 specifies the format data of the document corresponding to the image data 21 from the information such as ruled lines, characters, barcodes, QR codes, etc. of the image data 21. The format data is associated with the position information and names of the input field 3 and the input field area 22. For example, to extract the name "contractor himself", the upper left coordinates (x1, y1) and the lower right coordinates (x2, y2) of one of the input fields 3 described in the format data. You can Alternatively, the image data of the document format data is prepared, and separately, the data in which the input field 3 and the information for identifying the corresponding input field area 22 are associated with each other is prepared.

  The examination classification unit 13 classifies the input field 3 for each examination. Specifically, the document identification unit 12 extracts the name of the contractor, the address of the contractor, the name of the guarantor, and the address of the guarantor, which are the names of the input field area 22, and the examination contents are associated with each. In addition, data such as the terminal to be examined, the name of the examination staff, and the ID may be associated and stored for each examination.

  The first display control unit 14 displays the input column area 22 classified by the examination classification unit 13 on the terminal 18 designated for each examination, and masks the input column area 22 that is not the examination target. Each examination staff performs the examination by displaying the image data 21 on the terminal 18 assigned for each examination. The first display control unit 14 prevents the examination staff from examining the input column area 22 that is not in charge of examination by the examination staff by displaying the input column area 22 to which examination is not assigned in a dark display color by masking. . This allows the examination staff to examine the assigned input field area 22 intensively and quickly.

  The second display control unit 15 displays the memo writing, the sticky note, or the like input in a region other than the input field region 22 in the image data 21. Specifically, the second display control unit 15 extracts the input information such as the memo writing 4 and the sticky note based on the difference between the area excluding the input field area 22 and the image data generated from the format data of the document 2a. indicate. Similarly to the first display control unit 14, the second display control unit 15 also sets a terminal that can be examined.

  The examination result input unit 16 is an input unit (for example, a keyboard or a mouse) for inputting the examination result by the examination staff. For example, the examination staff may input information indicating whether the examination result is OK or NG in the examination result input unit 16, or may input information indicating that it is impossible to judge whether the examination result is OK or NG. . Alternatively, rank information of three or more levels may be provided as the examination result, and the examination staff may select and input any rank information. As described above, the specific content and data format of the examination result input by the examination result input unit 16 are not particularly limited.

  The examination result storage unit 17 stores the examination result input by each examination staff and the identification information for identifying the examination staff in association with each other. Furthermore, the identification information of the applicant or the contractor input on the document 2a may be associated.

  In addition, the examination work support device 1 of FIG. 1 includes an image data storage unit 19. The image data storage unit 19 stores image data 21 imaged by the computerization unit 11. The image data storage unit 19 and the examination result storage unit 17 may be integrated. In this case, the identification information of the applicant or contractor who has input the document 2a and the identification information of the examination staff may be stored in association with the examination result and the image data 21. In addition, as a system configuration of the examination work support apparatus 1, a computerization unit 11, an image data storage unit 19, a document identification unit 12, an examination classification unit 13, and an examination result storage unit 17 are provided in a server (not shown). The first display control unit 14, the second display control unit 15, and the examination result input unit 16 may be provided in the terminal 18. In this case, the first display control unit 14 and the second display control unit 15 are installed in the terminal 18 for each examination, control conditions are set in advance, and the contractor's name, contractor's own address, and guarantor of the image data 21 are set. Control the masking of name and guarantor address for each terminal. The examination staff accesses the image data 21 from the terminal 18, conducts examination, and inputs the examination result. There are no particular restrictions on the system configuration, and other configurations may be used. The first display control unit 14 and the second display control unit 15 may be set for each terminal, or may be set on the server side and controlled based on the identification information of the terminal that has accessed the server. Good. Further, the mask processing may be performed for each examination staff by controlling for each identification information of the examination staff.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of examination contents corresponding to the document 2a in FIG. 2, and shows an example of conducting examination in four stages. In Examination 1, it is examined whether or not the name of the contractor is listed. Examination 2 examines whether the guarantor's name is entered. In examination 3, it is examined whether there is a seal of the contractor and the guarantor. In examination 4, it is examined whether or not there is a memo writing 4 or a sticky note at an arbitrary place on the sheet surface. The examination content of FIG. 3 is displayed on any terminal 18. A check button 20 indicating whether or not examinations 1 to 4 have been carried out is also displayed on the terminal 18 for displaying examination contents in FIG. The examination staff or manager checks the corresponding check button 20 when performing examinations 1 to 4.

  Each of the examinations 1 to 4 is conducted in parallel by separate examination staff. Each auditing staff sequentially performs corresponding auditing on many contracts. Since each examination staff need only perform the given examination, the examination can be performed extremely efficiently, and the examination time can be shortened and the examination accuracy can be improved. In addition, since multiple types of auditing staff can perform different types of audits in parallel, there is no risk that the auditing time will be long even if there are many types of audits.

  For example, the examination staff who carries out the examination of examination 1 may examine only the input field 3 of the contractor himself in FIG. The examination staff does not need information in the areas other than the input field 3 of the contractor himself. As shown in FIG. 2, when the guarantor's input field 3 is displayed close to the contractor's own input field 3, the contractor's own input field 3 should be examined, but the guarantor's input field 3 should be examined. The mistake of examining the input information of can occur. Therefore, the first display control unit 14 of the present embodiment, for the examination staff who examines only the input column 3 of the contractor himself, as shown in FIG. An image in which the area 24 is masked is generated and displayed on the terminal 18 of the examination staff. As a result, the examination staff can easily understand the input field 3 to be examined, and there is no risk of making a mistake in the input field 3 to be examined. Further, since the input field 3 to be examined can be grasped at a glance, there is no doubt as to which input field 3 should be examined, and the time required for the examination can be shortened.

  Similarly, an image in which a region other than the guarantor's input field 3 is masked may be displayed on the terminal 18 of the examination staff who conducts the examination 2 of the examination.

  As shown in FIG. 4 (b), the contractor's own input field 3 and the guarantor's input field 3 are displayed side by side on the terminal 18 of the inspection staff who performs the inspection 3 and the other areas are masked. It is desirable to do. As a result, the examination staff can understand at a glance whether or not the contractor and the guarantor are properly stamped with the seal, thereby eliminating mistakes in the examination and speeding up the examination.

  In FIGS. 3 and 4, the masked area 24 is displayed in a darker display color than the unmasked area 25 so that the sheet surface information in the masked area 24 can be visually recognized. However, the display form of the mask area 24 is not limited to that shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and the mask area 24 may be made such that the information on the sheet surface is completely invisible. Alternatively, the display color may be changed between the masked area 24 and the unmasked area. In this case, it is desirable that the masked area 24 is displayed in a darker shade than the unmasked area.

  5 is a block diagram showing the internal configuration of the second display control unit 15, FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the examination 4, and FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the processing contents of the second display control unit 15.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the second display control unit 15 has a format image data generation unit 31 and an input extra-column data extraction unit 32. The format image data generation unit 31 generates image data from the format data 26 of the document 2a. The extra-entry-field data extracting unit 32 obtains a difference between the image data of the image data 21 and the image data of the format data 26 in an area other than the entry-column area 22, and extracts the area from the extra-entry field including the memo writing 4 and the like.

  The examination 4 for examining whether there is a memo writing 4, a sticky note, or the like at any place on the document 2a is performed by the processing procedure of FIG. First, the format image data generation unit 31 generates image data from the format data 26 of the document 2a before information is input to each input field 3 of the document 2a (step S1). As shown in FIG. 7A, the format data 26 is layout data of the document 2a, and is print data created by DTP. The layout data includes the input field 3, the name of the input field area 22, and the position information. Image data is created from this layout data. Alternatively, the image data may be created by reading the already printed document 2a with a scanner. The process of step S1 does not have to be performed at the time of the examination of examination 4, and the image data of the format data 26 of the document 2a may be generated and stored in advance.

  Next, the second display control unit 15 specifies the area of the document 2a to be masked (step S2). In this case, all the input fields 3 in the document 2a are designated as areas to be masked. Next, the input field 3 is masked to generate the image data 21 as shown in FIG. 7B (step S3). The position and inclination of the image data 21 are corrected (step S4). Here, for example, a characteristic point is extracted from the image data of the format data 26, and the position and inclination of the image data 21 are corrected according to the position and direction of the characteristic point.

  Next, the input extra-column data extraction unit 32 extracts the difference image data 27 between the image data of the format data 26 and the corrected image data 21 for the area other than the masked area (step S5). The differential image data 27 extracted here corresponds to the memo writing 4, sticky notes, stamps, signatures, and the like shown in FIG. 7C. The examination staff visually confirms the difference image data 27 to perform examination (step S6).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, even if the memo writing 4 or the sticky note is present at any place in the document 2a, the second display control unit 15 appropriately detects the input extra area 23 such as the memo writing 4 or the sticky note. it can. Therefore, the memo writing 4 and the sticky note in any area other than the input field 3 in the document 2a can be correctly examined.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when there are a plurality of input fields 3 in the document 2a, the area other than the input field 3 to be examined by each examination staff is masked and displayed on the terminal 18, so that each examination staff Eliminates the risk of making a mistake in the input field 3 to be examined. Further, since each examination staff can grasp the input field 3 to be examined at a glance, examination speed and examination accuracy are improved. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, even an examination staff unfamiliar with the examination work can perform examination without lowering the examination efficiency.

  The aspects of the present invention are not limited to the individual embodiments described above, but include various modifications that can be conceived by those skilled in the art, and the effects of the present invention are not limited to the above-described contents. That is, various additions, changes and partial deletions can be made without departing from the conceptual idea and spirit of the present invention derived from the contents defined in the claims and the equivalents thereof.
