Abstract

PURPOSE:To decide the validity of combination of words by informing the combination of incorrect words detected by a detecting means to the external by an informing means. CONSTITUTION:At the time of detecting the depression of a key on a keyboard relating to a retrieving instruction for an incorrect word pair, a CPU 10 initializes the contents (SP) of a search pointer 14b and sets up the SP so as to indicate the leading position of a document storage area 14a. The CPU 10 executes retrieving processing for reading out a character string indicated by the SP from the area 14a and comparing the read contents with a word pair to be combined in an incorrect word pair storing memory 12. At the time of detecting the continuous existence of coincident word pairs, the CPU 10 develops the word pairs in a display buffer memory 17, controls a CRT 20 to inversely display the word pairs, develops the candidates of corresponding corrected words from a corrected word storing memory 13 to the memory 17, and displays the developed contents on the CRT 20. An operator writes the corrected word in the area 14a to substitute the corrected word for the incorrected word.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a document processing device, and more particularly to a document processing device that creates or edits a document.

[Prior Art] In recent years, document processing devices such as word processors have made remarkable progress.

Normally, in Japanese, the Kana-Kanji conversion method is adopted, but when the document is finally created, the inputter has to check whether the document was entered correctly or not, in other words, the characters that were incorrectly converted due to input errors. The final document creation is completed by checking whether there are any errors or not, and correcting the sentences as necessary.

By the way, if we look at the way Japanese is currently used, it cannot necessarily be said that it is used correctly, and there are various problems.

For example, there is a phrase ``sprinkle love and respect,'' but whether you don't know it, or whether you know it and enter it by mistake, you may end up typing ``r, sprinkle love and respect.''

[Problem to be Solved by the Invention] Normally, such input errors, that is, incorrect combinations of word connections, are difficult for the person inputting the document to discover and are not notified that they are errors. Moreover, you may end up repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a document processing device that makes it possible to determine the validity of word combinations.

[Means for Solving the Problem] In order to solve this problem, the present invention includes the configuration shown below.

That is, in a document processing device that creates or edits a document, there is an input means for inputting a document, a detection means for detecting the validity of the use of word combinations in the input document, and a detection means for detecting incorrect word combinations in the input document. and notification means for notifying the outside when the use of the combination is detected.

[Function] In the configuration of the present invention, when the detection means detects the use of an incorrect combination of words, the notification means notifies the outside.

[Embodiments] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Explanation of the configuration concept (Fig. 1)> Fig. 1 is a conceptual diagram of the configuration of the meeting processing device in the embodiment.

In the figure, 1 is a document storage unit that stores created document information (character code group), and 2 is an erroneous word pair storage unit that stores word pairs that are prone to errors. Reference numeral 3 denotes a corrected word storage unit that stores correct words of the error-prone words stored in the erroneous word annotation tα unit 2. Reference numeral 4 indicates a search unit for searching whether there is an error-prone word pair stored in the incorrect word pair storage unit 2 in the document storage unit 1; It is a character string changing section that changes the incorrect word in the document storage section l with the corresponding word stored in the section 3.

Reference numeral 6 denotes an output section for displaying and outputting the document in the document storage section 1, and similarly displays and outputting the portions changed by the character string changing section 5.

<Description of Apparatus Configuration (FIG. 2)> FIG. 2 shows a block configuration diagram of an embodiment of the document processing apparatus based on the above-mentioned concept.

In the figure, 10 is a CPU that controls the entire device, and 11 is an R that stores the processing procedure (program) of CPU10.
It's OM. The ROM 11 stores programs related to document editing processing as well as programs related to a flowchart shown in FIG. 5, which will be described later. Reference numeral 12 is an incorrect word pair storage memory, and 13 is a correction word storage memory. Both of these are described below in terms of ROM.

A RAM 14 is used as a work area for the CPU 10, and includes a document storage area 14a for storing document information that has been created or is being created, and a search pointer 14b to be described later. 15 is a keyboard for inputting various information such as documents or search instructions; 16 is a cursor register that stores position information of a cursor with respect to the display screen indicating an editing location; and 17 is a display for expanding the document (character code) to be displayed on the display screen. buffer memory for
A message storage memory 18 stores messages for warnings or various operation instructions to the operator. 19 is a CRT which is a cathode ray tube type display device. A CRTC 20 controls the CRT 19, and controls character codes developed in the display buffer memory 17 to display them on the CRT 19. 21 is a character generator (CG) that generates a character pattern corresponding to the character code and outputs it to the CRT 19;

) and are electrically connected.

Explanation of the incorrect word pair storage memory and corrected word storage memory (Figs. 3 and 4)> Fig. 3 shows the internal format of the incorrect word pair storage memory 12 in the embodiment, and Fig. 4 shows the internal format of the corrected word storage memory 13. shows.

As shown in the figure, in the erroneous word pair storage memory 12, the relationship between erroneous words is stored.
．． II) combination examples are stored.

For example, for SNO "l", the notation is r ami j (pronunciation I is "aiso"), and following that, it is written as a word! When the conjugated form of the verb J continues as ■, it shows that the connection between these two words is unnatural.

When the existence of such a word pair is detected, its SNO
Each column of SNO in the corrected word storage memory 13 corresponding to .

That is, when the sentence ``Full your amiability <'' is detected, the portion of the correction word storage memory 13 where the SNO is ``1'' is checked. At this time, since it is possible to detect the existence of "Aikyo" as the replacement notation I, the notation I
If we replace 1 ami j with the substitution notation 11r ami ke -, it becomes possible to make the sentence correct. However, at this time, the data in the document storage area 14a will be immediately deleted.
Instead of replacing the word (character code string) with the word "love and respect" (character code string), the user is notified of this. For example, in the above-mentioned example, the word pair ``Aikei j and r Furikiku'' is highlighted (marked) on the display screen.

In addition, if, for example, there is a conjugated form of "the sentence j to unplug the outlet, or the word r outlet" followed by the word r unplug" in the document stored in the document storage area 14a, the correction word storage memory 13 SNO of “°2°°
It turns out that there are two parts. In other words, when forming a correct sentence by replacing the expression I such as ``outlet j'' with T plug J, and when replacing ``r power source J'' with ``outlet'' and the word ``cut'' with ``unplug''. There is. In other words, there are two candidates.

Description of Processing Contents (FIG. 5)> The error word pair search processing procedure of this embodiment based on the above-described principle and configuration will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In the following description, the content of the search pointer 14b will be simply referred to as "SP".

First, in step S1, an input from the keyboard 15 is waited for, and in the next step $2, the input key is determined. At this time, if a key other than an error word pair search instruction is pressed, for example, if a character key or the like is input, the process advances to step S3 and the corresponding processing is performed.

On the other hand, when it is detected that a key related to a search instruction for an erroneous word pair is pressed, the process proceeds to step S4, where SP is initialized to "0" and set to point to the top position of the document storage area 14a. Then, in step S5, a search process is executed to read out the character string indicated by the SP from the document storage area 14a and compare it with the notations I and II in the incorrect word pair storage memory 12. Then, when it is detected in step S6 and step $7 that word pairs matching the notations 1 and 11 exist consecutively, step S
Proceeding to step 8, the word pair is developed in the display buffer memory 17, marked and inverted by controlling the CRTC 20, and the corresponding correction word candidate is also stored in the display buffer memory 13 from the correction word storage memory 13. 17
It is expanded and displayed under the control of the CRTC20. At this time, a message indicating that the word pair is incorrect is read out from the message storage memory 18 yen on the display screen.
It is displayed by developing it in the display buffer memory 18.

The display position of this corrected word will be displayed below each incorrect word to notify which word is incorrect, but it will be displayed at the bottom of the display screen, and the corrected word will be displayed below each incorrect word. The cursor may be displayed at the position.

Now, when the operator looks at this display screen and determines that it is necessary to make a correction (when it is detected in step S9 that a predetermined key has been pressed), the process proceeds to step S10, and one of the correction candidate words is is selected, and the selected word (character string) is written in the document storage area 14a, replacing the previously stored incorrect word. Thereafter, the process advances to step Sll to update the SP, and in step SL2 it is determined based on the SP whether the above-described processing has been performed on all document information. and until the end of the disbursement, step 35
Repeat the following process.

When the above-mentioned processing for the entire meeting is completed, the process proceeds to the next step S13, in which the corrected document is redisplayed by sequentially expanding the data in the meeting storage area 14a into the display buffer memory 18, and to confirm.

<Description of Other Embodiments> The embodiments described above are for searching for pairs of incorrect words in a created document.

Incidentally, the above-described processing may be performed during document creation. For example, normally processing is performed using kana-kanji conversion, but during this kana-kanji conversion, a search is made to see if an incorrect word has been input. Then, when a character string matching a word pair stored in the incorrect word pair storage memory 12 is input, a warning is issued. Furthermore, at this time, processing such as automatically converting to the correct word may be considered. In any case, in order to determine whether an incorrect word pair has been input during character input, step 8 shown in FIG.
This can be achieved by performing steps 5 and 6. in this case,
The character string being input will be sequentially expanded into the document storage area 14a, so SP can be used as is.
Ru.

As explained above, according to this embodiment, misunderstandings by the inputter,
Alternatively, it becomes possible to objectively judge the validity of the use of words due to input errors.

Furthermore, by displaying correct candidates when an incorrect input is made, the inputter can learn how to use the word on his or her own.

It has been explained that the incorrect word storage memory 12 and the corrected word storage memory 13 in the embodiment are composed of ROM, but in case a new erroneous word pair is noticed, it is possible to register the word pair in RAM. Alternatively, a writable nonvolatile memory may be used. Incidentally, when configured with RAM, the information may be stored in a magnetic disk device or the like, and the information may be loaded into these memories when the power is turned on.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, when an incorrect combination of words is used, it is notified to that effect, so it is possible to efficiently create a correct document. Become.

Furthermore, if the user uses a combination of words incorrectly, by displaying valid word candidates, it becomes possible for the user to learn the correct wording on his or her own.
