Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document creation device, and particularly relates to an improvement of a kanji information processing device that involves a kana-kanji conversion operation, that is, a Japanese word processor.

(2) Technical background Over the past two to three years, Japanese word processor products have been announced one after another. A typical product has a built-in word dictionary of about 50,000 words, inputs kana characters using a key input device, automatically converts the kana input sentences into sentences containing kanji, displays the sentences containing kana and kanji on a CRT, etc., and prints them out. Being able to go out.

There are many homonyms among Japanese kanji, and sentences containing kana and kanji that are converted using kana sentences specified by kana input are often not converted as correct sentences.There are various input methods for correcting these. A method is proposed.

In general, there are many additional instructions and correction inputs, and the operator looks at the text mixed with kana and kanji displayed on the CRT and performs reconversion such as additions and corrections.

After the operator performs these reconversions, that is, when the desired sentence is obtained, when the operator starts inputting the next kana character string, the input code corresponding to the previous reconverted kana character string is not retained. If you find an error in a written text and want to make additions or corrections when reviewing it, specify that character or text, obtain the kana character string code from the kanji code using the kanji-kana conversion means, and then perform kana-kanji conversion again. There is.

In such a procedure, there is a problem that there is no guarantee that the kana character string at the time of input will be restored by passing it through the Kanji-kana conversion means, and mistakes are often made.

(3) Prior art and problems The above-mentioned problems will be explained with respect to the conventional example shown in FIG.

FIG. 1 shows a system diagram of a conventional document creation device. Part 1 surrounded by a dotted line is a kana-kanji mixed sentence processing section, an input buffer 2, an output buffer 3, a key input determination section 4, and a kanji/kanji mixed sentence processing section. It is composed of a kana conversion section 12 and a dictionary search section 5, and the dictionary search section 5 has a dictionary search register 6, a longest match processing section 7, and a candidate storage file 8. Furthermore, a dictionary 9, a data save file 10, a display device 1 such as a CRT, etc.
1 constitutes a document creation device.

In the above configuration, if the operator inputs a document such as "Onyain niyoruniyuuriyokuhouhouhounokento" from the keys to the input terminal IN using kana characters, the input is sequentially stored in the input buffer 2. When the operator completes the input and presses the input end key, the key input determination unit 4 detects this and outputs the input completion signal 4a, and the input contents in the input buffer 2 are all stored in the dictionary search unit 5. The data is transferred to the dictionary search register 6 of. The dictionary search section 5 is started based on this, searches the contents of the dictionary 9, and searches the dictionary 9 for the above-mentioned "onseignol..."
Based on the sentence examples of "Kentou", "voice"..."sound"...
``On'', ``O'', etc. are read out. That is, in the longest match processing unit 7, the longest vocabulary stored in the dictionary is sequentially extracted and stored in the candidate storage file 8, and through the output buffer 3, sentences containing kana and kanji are given to the data save file 10, and the CRT 11
is displayed and calibrated by the operator, and the calibration is performed on the calibration line 9b from the key input determination section 4. Suppose that the above kana character data entered from the input terminal IN is incorrectly entered as "Onseinoyoruniyuurokuhouhounokento" and is displayed on the CRT 11 as "Study of the six methods of voice night entry" during kana-kanji conversion. The error section ``No Yairi Roku'' is specified and the kanji code is converted into a kana character string code through the kana-kanji conversion unit 12. At this time, for example, the kanji-kana converter converts "noyairiroku" into kana, so that kana-kanji reconversion may become impossible. Therefore, the operator needs to re-input "Niyoruniyuuriyoku" by key input to re-convert the kana-kanji with "input by", and it is difficult to determine whether it will return correctly or not. There was a problem that could only be solved by actually running the word processor.

(4) Purpose of the Invention In view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks of the present invention, the input character string code is retained at the discretion of the operator, and the operator reviews the document after creating it to find errors such as homophones. The purpose of this is to call up the retained input character string code and perform kana-kanji conversion.

(5) Structure of the Invention According to the present invention, this object includes an input buffer means for inputting kana characters, etc., an input determination means for determining the end of input, and an input buffer means for inputting the input buffer means by the output of the input determination means. a dictionary search means for transferring the data to a dictionary search register, searching for the contents stored in the dictionary and storing it in a candidate storage file; and providing the output of the dictionary search means to a first data saving file via an output buffer means. and converts both the kana character input string and the kanji code string into second data until a correct kanji-kana mixed sentence is generated from the kana-kanji converted sentence in relation to the dictionary search register in the dictionary search means. In the document data processing device that stores the data in the save file, when reconverting the kana character input string stored in the second data save file, the search means mistakenly converts the kana/kanji input string, and the first This is achieved by a document creation device that is characterized in that it restores the frequency of use of kanji characters stored in a data save file to the frequency before they were erroneously converted.

(6) Embodiment of the Invention An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. Note that the same parts as in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals, and redundant explanation will be omitted.

The dictionary search register 6 in the dictionary search unit 5 shifts and removes only the vocabulary for which the longest match has been adopted by the longest match processing unit 7 during exchange with the dictionary 9, and continues longest match processing. I'm getting lost. Then, the frequency information of the word for which a match is adopted is changed (added by 1). The frequency information is stored in the dictionary 9 as a frequency count for each word, that is, 1 is added to the frequency information of the word corresponding to the vocabulary adopted as the longest match.

For example, in the present invention, the character string "ONSEINOYORUNIYUROKUHOHOUNOKENTO" added to the input terminal IN as described above is supplied from the input buffer 2 to the dictionary search register 6, and at the same time, it is sent to the second data save file 13. Store it in When the above kana input character string is displayed on the CRT 11 as "Study of the voice Yairi Roku method" by kana-kanji conversion, the operator should confirm that the underlined "Yairi Roku" part is incorrect. Find out the location from the second data save file 13, call up the corresponding input character string code, and use the correction operation to specify the location.
If you re-convert the kana-kanji after making the correction, the kana-kanji conversion will be done as "input by".

At this time, the word frequency information re-converted by the above-described operation is corrected. That is, the frequency information changed by the previous conversion is subtracted by 1, and the frequency information of the word converted by the subsequent re-conversion is added by 1. For example, if it is the above-mentioned "No Yairi Roku",
The frequency information for "no", "night", "iri", and "roku" is subtracted by 1, and the frequency information for "ni", "by", and "input" is incremented by 1.

After the desired kana-kanji mixed sentence is generated in this manner, the input character string code may be deleted at the operator's will to prevent the storage capacity of the second data save file 13 from increasing.

Furthermore, when reconverting kana-kanji, if the frequency information is restored for the previous incorrectly called word, even if the input string code is incorrectly input, the input string code can be corrected by specifying the position. All you have to do is perform kana-kanji conversion on tsuta. It is also possible to compress and hold the input string code.

In the above embodiments, key input was used as the input method, but input may also be performed by voice. In this case, the key input determining section 4 may be used as a voice input determining section and a voice recognition means may be added.

(7) Effects of the Invention Since the present invention is configured as described above, it is easy to modify the kanji code converted into kana-kanji, and the input character string code can be corrected to prevent erroneous conversions such as homonyms. It has the feature that re-conversion can be speeded up by simply re-converting without needing to restore.
