Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention, when a homophone is selected,
From the next time onward, the present invention relates to a document creation device and method having a notation learning function of outputting the most recently selected homophone as a conversion candidate with the highest priority.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a kana-kanji conversion operation is performed by inputting a reading in this type of document creating apparatus, the reading is converted into a homophone including the hiragana and katakana notations of the reading, and the user Among them, the desired homophone is selected. When a homonym is selected by such a user, when the same reading is input next time and Kana-Kanji conversion is performed, the most recently selected homonym is output with the highest priority. There is.

However, in this conventional learning, since the selected homophone information (learning information) is stored for each input word, the memory area for storing the learning information is insufficient in some cases, and pushdown is performed. As a result, the learning information in the past is erased, and there is a drawback that the learning function is not useful in the case of hepatorenal. In particular, since it is recently recommended that adverbs and conjunctions be written in hiragana, even if hiragana is selected when kana-kanji conversion is performed by inputting the adverb's pronunciation, this selected homophone information is stored in the memory area for each word. However, if the selective learning as described above is performed for all adverbs, there is a drawback that the above-mentioned memory area becomes insufficient and the learning function becomes useless as described above. Further, in the above-mentioned conventional learning function, since the selected homophone information when the homophone is selected is stored for each word,
There is a drawback that the selected homophone information is learned for each part of speech, and when the reading of the same part of speech is input next time, it cannot be preferentially output in the notation form selected last time, which is inconvenient.

[0004]

As described above, in the conventional learning function, since the same phoneme information selected at the time of kana-kanji conversion is stored in the memory for each word, for example, it is selected that all part of speech is written in hiragana. Even in case of doing, since the information that the hiragana notation is selected for each word of the part of speech is stored in the memory, the learning area of the memory is insufficient, and the information learned in the past disappears, There was a drawback that it became useless when the learning function was hepatorenal. Moreover, although the selected homophone information can be saved for each word when converting kana-kanji as described above, the selected homophone information cannot be saved for each part of speech, so if, for example, all adverbs are written in Hiragana, this can be done for each word. Had to be learned, and it had the drawback of being inconvenient to use.

In view of the above, the present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks. The homophone information selected by the user at the time of kana-kanji conversion is saved for each part of speech, and the part of speech (reading) after the homophone learning is input thereafter. Then, it is an object of the present invention to provide a document creation device and method capable of outputting the candidate word information having the notation form indicated by the stored homophone word information at the highest priority when converting kana-kanji.

[0006]

According to the present invention, word information having input reading information is extracted from a dictionary unit as a plurality of candidate word information, and the candidate word information is output in a predetermined priority order to allow the user to output the word information. In a document creation device equipped with a kana-kanji conversion processing function to be selected by, a storage unit that stores information indicating the notation form of the candidate word information selected by the user after the kana-kanji conversion in association with the part of speech of the candidate word information, A search unit that searches the storage unit based on the part of speech of the candidate word information extracted during the Kana-Kanji conversion to search for information indicating the corresponding notation form, and a notation form indicated by the information retrieved by the search unit. And a control means for outputting the candidate word information to be taken with the highest priority.

[0007]

In the document creating apparatus of the present invention, the storing means stores the information indicating the notation form of the candidate word information selected by the user after the kana-kanji conversion in association with the part of speech of the candidate word information. The search means searches the storage means based on the part of speech of the candidate word information extracted at the time of kana-kanji conversion to search for information indicating the corresponding notation form. The control means outputs the candidate word information in the notation form indicated by the information retrieved by the retrieval means with the highest priority.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a document creating apparatus and a document creating system of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 is an input device for inputting readings of words, or inputting kana-kanji conversion instructions and the like, and 2 is a memory, which is selected after a notation learning area 21 for storing notation learning information and an input reading kana-kanji conversion. It has a document buffer 22 for storing created words by storing words and the like. Reference numeral 3 is a kana-kanji conversion processing unit that converts the input reading into kana-kanji, 4 is a dictionary portion that is referred to during kana-kanji conversion, and stores kanji headings and part-of-speech information for the reading, and 5 is the input reading kana-kanji conversion result. It is a display device for displaying.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. When a kana-kanji conversion instruction is issued from the input device 1 after inputting the reading in hiragana, the kana-kanji conversion processing unit 3 searches the dictionary unit 4 for candidate kanji for the input reading, and gives priority. Output to the display device 5 in order of rank.
The user looks at the output candidate kanji and presses the next candidate key on the input device 1 to select the desired candidate kanji,
Input the desired word for the reading. The word thus input is stored in the document buffer 22 in the memory 2 and displayed on the display device 5. At this time, the kana-kanji conversion processing unit 3 checks the part-of-speech of the word indicated by the input reading by referring to the dictionary unit 4, and then when the candidate kanji (notation form) selected by the user is known, the memory 2 In the table as shown in FIG. 2 stored in the notation learning area 21, the processing for registering the notation learning information indicating what kind of notation form has been selected for each part of speech is performed. That is, when the candidate word information selected by the user is, for example, an adverb and hiragana is selected as the notation form of this adverb, the kana-kanji conversion processing unit 3 causes the data regarding the adverb of the table shown in FIG. "01" in the area to write
Set the bit for to register the information that the adverb is written in Hiragana. When the notation learning information registered in this table is katakana, it takes “11”,
When the normal kana-kanji conversion is performed, "00" is taken. Therefore, all the contents in the table are "00" at the time of initialization, and when this bit is set, it is the same as notation learning is not performed.

Next, the kana-kanji conversion processing operation after the above learning is performed is shown in the flowchart shown in FIG.
Follow the instructions below. First, when hiragana reading is input from the input device 1 in step 301, kana-kanji conversion processing for the input hiragana reading is executed in step 302. At that time, in step 303, the part of speech of each candidate word information for the reading is checked by referring to the dictionary unit 4, and then the process proceeds to step 304. In step 304, the notation learning area 21 of the memory 2 is set for each of the candidate word information.
2 is searched and the notation learning information registered in the area corresponding to the part of speech of the word is checked. If it is "00", step,
Go to step 306, otherwise go to step 305. In step 305, the kana-kanji conversion processing unit 3 displays the candidate word information of the notation form shown in the notation learning information on the display device 5 with the highest priority, and ends the processing. For example, when the candidate word information is an adverb, the corresponding notation learning information in the table of FIG. 2 is 01.
Therefore, the candidate word information displayed in hiragana is displayed on the display device 5 with the highest priority. On the other hand, if the notation information of the part of speech is “00”, it is determined that this indicates that the notation learning has not been performed, and the process proceeds to step 306 as described above. Candidate Chinese characters are displayed on the display device 5 in accordance with the order of priority at the time of conversion, and the process ends. The user can select whether or not to operate the above-mentioned notation learning function by operating the input device 1.

According to this embodiment, the latest writing form information selected by the user at the time of kana-kanji conversion is classified and stored in the notation learning area 21 of the memory 2 for each part of speech. The notation form information corresponding to the part-of-speech of the information can be examined, and candidate word information having a notation form according to the held notation form information can be displayed on the display device 5 as the highest priority. For this reason, for example, if all the adverbs are selected to be written in Hiragana, it is only necessary to use about 2 bits as shown in FIG. Therefore, it is not necessary to use the storage area of the memory 2 and it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the learning function is not useful when the area of the memory 2 is insufficient and the patient has liver kidney. Moreover, since learning is not performed for each word as in the conventional technique but for each part of speech, the learning is not troublesome and the document creation efficiency of the device can be significantly improved. In this example, as in the conventional method, the selected homophone information is stored for each word, and the learning function for reflecting the stored selected homophone information in the output priority order of the candidate kanji during the subsequent kana-kanji conversion is used in combination. May be.
