Abstract

PURPOSE:To accelerate input speed by providing a flag which designates the execution of processing to perform the switching processing of priority of a homonym in accordance with a KANA(Japanese syllabary) header at every KANA header. CONSTITUTION:The content of the dictionary storage part of a KANA/KANJI (Chinese character) conversion dictionary 1 comprises a pair of word groups by storing the KANA header 21 at a leading position, thence, a priority switching feasibility decision flag 22, a first homonym 23-1, a separation mark 24, a second homonym 23-2, the SEP 24,..., an n-th homonym 23-N, and the SEP 24. Furthermore, the KANA header 25 of the next pair is stored following the final SEP 24, and the flag 22, the homonym, and the SEP 24 are stored similarly as the first KANA header 21. Such storing order shows the order of the homonym, and the switching of the order can be realized by switching the storing order of the homonym. Thereby, the input speed can be accelerated by storing the display position of a targeted homonym and selecting the display position without confirming a display content.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a kana-kanji conversion system, and more particularly to a kana-kanji conversion system that includes a plurality of types of homophone priority replacement processing.

[Conventional technology]

In the conventional Kana-Kanji conversion method, when a homophone is selected, the most recently used homophone is given top priority, and all homophones in the second and subsequent ranks are also changed and stored at the same time. It had become.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The conventional kana-kanji conversion method described above, when selecting homophones, gives top priority to the recently used homophones, and also
Since all the homophones of all ranks from the 1st priority onwards were also memorized at the same time, the homonyms displayed with the first priority were out of order, and the target homonym was selected from a large number of homonym candidates by display selection. When selecting words, the subsequent display order changes due to the shuffling of priorities, so the same language is often not in the previously selected order, although this is not a problem for novice operators. On the other hand, if you are an advanced operator with a fast input speed, you may memorize the display position of the desired homophone and select this memorized display position without checking the display content of the homophone. Therefore, if the display order changes due to priority switching as described above, it is impossible to input from memory, which causes a problem that efficiency decreases.

The purpose of the present invention is that when an advanced operator selects a homophone,
To provide a kana-kanji conversion system which can speed up the input speed by storing the display position of a target homophone and selecting this display position without checking the display contents.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The Kana-Kanji conversion method of the present invention follows the Kana-Kanji conversion dictionary that stores a plurality of Kana headings and one or more homophones corresponding to each Kana heading. The configuration is such that a flag is provided for each heading to specify whether or not to perform a process of replacing the priority order of homophones corresponding to this kana heading.

The Kana-Kanji conversion method of the present invention newly stores the most recently used homophones with the highest priority when the flag that is set for each Kana heading and specifies whether or not to perform a process of replacing the priority order of homophones is not activated. In addition, the priorities of the second and subsequent homophones may be stored without being replaced.

The Kana-Kanji conversion method of the present invention has a flag set for each Kana heading that specifies whether or not to perform a process of replacing the priority of homophones. Homophones in the order of , may also be stored with their priorities changed at the same time.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention.

The kana-kanji conversion dictionary 1 receives an input signal from the priority change flag on/off means 2 for determining whether or not to change the priority order of homophones for each kana heading, and converts the priority order according to the priority order information. The specified homophones are output to a homophone output means 3 which outputs homophones in order. The kana-kanji conversion dictionary 1 also includes a priority order changeability flag setting means 11 for displaying whether or not the priority order of homophones can be changed for each kana heading, and a priority order changeability flag setting means 11 that displays whether or not the priority order of homophones can be changed for each kana heading, and when the priority order changeability flag is off. a highest priority word storage means 12 which stores only the highest priority word and does not change the priority order of homophones in the second and subsequent ranks; and a total rank permutation storage means 13 for permuting and storing the priority order of the homophones of the order of .

Next, the operation will be explained.

As shown in the pattern diagram in Figure 2, the contents of the dictionary storage part of the Kana-Kanji conversion dictionary 1 are as follows: For each word, there is a Kana heading 21 at the beginning, followed by a priority order changeability flag (hereinafter referred to as flag) 22, followed by a First homophone 23-1. Delimiter (
(hereinafter referred to as SEP) 24, second homophone 23-2,5EP
24. . . . The Nth homophone 23-N and 5EP24 are stored to form one set of word groups. Furthermore, the last 5
Following EP24, store the next set of kana headings 25,
Similar to the first kana heading 21, flags, homophones, and SE
It stores P. This storage order becomes the ranking of the homophones, and the replacement of the rankings is realized by changing the storage order of the homophones.

Here, the configuration of the flag 22 will be explained.

The flag 22 is displayed as a two-digit hexadecimal number, and the value FFH (subscript ■ indicates hexadecimal number) indicates flag on, and any value other than FFH indicates flag off, and the value O1ff-FEW indicates the highest value. This shows the order in which the priority words are stored.

Next, an example of using this flag will be explained.

FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram for explaining priority order switching when flags are turned on. FIG. 3(a) shows the state before the priority order is replaced, and FIG. 3(b) shows the state after the priority order is replaced.

Before the priority order change, the homonyms for the kana heading ``ki'' were ``木'', ``ki'', ``ki'', and ``ki''.

It shows that there are six rankings of ``Ki'' and ``Ki''. Also, when displaying homophones when selecting a display, the top priority "tree" is already displayed in the sentence, so it is not displayed here, and "tree" is not displayed here.
``Ki'', ``Regulations'', ``Ki''.

Five items are displayed in order of ``Ki'' and ``Ki''.

Assuming that the target word is ``Ki'', selecting this will change the priority order, so that for the kana heading ``Ki'', the homophones are ``Ki'' and ``Ki''.

The order is ``Ki'', ``Ki'', ``Ki'', and ``Ki''.

Therefore, the ranking displayed in the next display selection will be "Thu",
They are "ki", "ki", "ki", and "ki", and the content and order of the first three characters are changed from the previous time.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram for explaining priority word replacement when the flag is turned off. Figure 4(a) shows the state before priority word replacement,
FIG. 4(b) shows the state after the priority words have been replaced.

In FIG. 4(a), the arrangement order of homophones is the same as in FIG. 3(a) before the priority order is changed. However, flag 22 has a value of 0.
Since it is 5H, the highest priority word indicates the fifth "return" in the sentence. This display method improves initial conversion efficiency by displaying the highest priority word first. If ``ki'' is not the target word, it will be displayed and the homophones will be ``ki'' and ``ki''.

Six items are displayed in the order of ``Ki'', ``Ki'', ``Ki'', and ``Ki''. This is the storage order in the Kana-Kanji conversion dictionary.

The target word is ``ki'', and when you select it, the screen in Figure 4 (b) appears.
), the flag 22 indicating the order of the highest priority word is
The value becomes 04H. Therefore, in the next conversion, the highest priority word "ki" will be displayed in the sentence, but if you select to display it, you can change the homophones "ki", "ki", "ki", "ki", etc. as before. Record"
, "return".

Six items are displayed in order of "Ki".

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention newly stores only the highest-priority homophone for homophones in a designated kana heading according to an operator's instruction, and also By memorizing the ranking without changing the order,
When an advanced operator selects a homophone, he or she can memorize the display position of the desired homophone and select this display position without checking the displayed content, making it possible to speed up input speed. It is effective.
