Abstract

PURPOSE:To select an objective system without performing a segmenting operation again even when the clause segmenting operation is erroneously performed in the case of unnecessitating the clause segmenting operation. CONSTITUTION:When a character string is inputted from an input part 11 and KANA (Japanese syllabary)/KANJI (Chines character) conversion is instructed, a KANA/KANJI conversion control part 13 performs KANA/KANJI conversion processing to the inputted character string, stores the result in a candidate memory 17 and displays the preferential converted system at a display part 23. When the segmentation of a clause is instructed at such a time, the segmentation control of the clause is performed under the control of a clause segmentation control part 14. A clause learning control part 18 prepares the converted system according to the segmented clause while referring to a clause learning dictionary 19 and decides the priority and even concerning the converted system excepting for the designated segmentation, it can be outputted from the candidate memory 17 with low priority as well.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document preparation device having a phrase recutting function.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a document creation apparatus, when a character string including a plurality of clauses is converted into Kana-Kanji characters at once, for example, in the case of a character string "Kazoku hanare kurashi", (a) A possible example is the phrase cutting "Kutaku / Hanare / Living" (b) "Kakuzoku / Harelet / Living".

According to information such as word information stored in a dictionary as an internal dictionary, information about auxiliary words such as particles, and information on usage of adjectives, the document creation apparatus uses, for example, the longest matching method (a). A conversion sequence is created by performing any clause break of (b). Therefore, for example, even if the character string is input in the expectation of the phrase breakage of (b), the disconnection of (a) may be performed.

As a countermeasure against this, the conventional document creating apparatus has a function of re-cutting the clauses so that the Kana-Kanji conversion desired by the user is performed when the correct Kana-Kanji conversion is not performed due to the difference in the position of the clause break. I have it.

[0005] For example, when a character string "Kazoku is far away" is entered and converted to "Living with a family," it becomes a sentence "Living with a family." ,
Specify the first phrase, "kazokuto," to instruct the phrase to be recut. As a result, the "kazokuto" part and the "haarete kurusu" part are converted into kana-kanji characters again, and the sentence becomes "living away from family". When the phrase recutting is performed as described above, only the newly created conversion sequence is valid and the previously created conversion sequence (candidate sentence) is invalid.

[0006]

In the conventional document creating apparatus, when the phrase is re-cut, the first re-cutting, that is, the previous phrase is regarded as one word and the dictionary is searched. Therefore, if you perform a phrase recut including a compound word, the corresponding kanji cannot be searched,
Correct Kana-Kanji conversion is not performed.

For example, when a character string "Emoji no Nyuryoku" is input and converted into "Emoji input", this can be changed to "Emoji input" by the first clause. Specify a certain "e" part to instruct the phrase recutting. As a result, the “e” part and the “moji no nikyuryuku” part are converted into kana-kanji characters again and can be used as “input of pictographs”. However, if the phrase is shuffled by specifying "Emoji no", it will not be converted correctly. This is because each of "E" and "Momoji" is a bunsetsu, and in "Emoji no", there are two bunsetsu, so the part before the recut position, that is, "Emoji no", is not converted to Kanji. Is.

Further, since the prefix and the suffix are also regarded as one clause, the following example also occurs. For example, if you enter a character string such as "Kousei no Uhin no Kaihatsu" and it is converted to "Development of component delivery", if you want to change it to "Development of high performance product", specify with "Kou" And instruct to re-cut the phrase. As a result, the "Kou" and "Seino Uhin no Kaihatsu" parts are converted into kana-kanji characters again, and "high-performance product development" can be achieved. However, if the phrase is re-chosen by specifying "Koseinou", two phrases including a compound word are designated, and the "Kosei-inou" part designated by recutting is not converted into Kanji.

As described above, in the conventional document creating apparatus, the first one phrase must be designated as a unit to instruct the phrase reshuffling, and the phrase including the compound word must be designated to instruct the phrase reshuffling. In this case, there was a problem that the front part specified to be re-cut was not converted to kanji and kana-kanji conversion was not performed reliably.

Further, in the conventional document creating apparatus, when the phrase is re-cut, the conversion sequence other than the designated break becomes invalid, and as a result, when the phrase re-cut operation is performed by mistake, that is, the user If the desired sentence is stored in the memory as a candidate, but the bunsetsu recut operation is mistakenly performed, the bunsetsu recut operation must be performed again, and there is a problem that operability is poor.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to surely perform kana-kanji conversion even when a phrase is re-cut including a compound word, and an unnecessary phrase is not necessary. It is an object of the present invention to provide a document creation device that can select a conversion sequence desired by a user without performing a re-segmentation operation again even if a re-encoding operation is mistakenly performed.

[0012]

A document creating apparatus according to the present invention is a kana-kanji converting means for creating a conversion sequence of kanji-mixed sentences by cutting a reading character string including a plurality of phrases into severable bunsetsu candidates. , A memory for storing a plurality of conversion sequences converted by this means, a means for selecting and outputting a priority sequence from the conversion sequences stored in this memory, and a conversion sequence output by this means. On the other hand, it is provided with a phrase re-arranging means for instructing re-slicing of the phrase, and a segment re-sizing means for re-slicing the segment according to the re-slice position designated by this unit to create a new conversion sequence and storing it in the memory. , The conversion sequence stored in the memory other than the break designated for recut is compared with the priority of the conversion sequence whose phrase is recut by the bunsetsu recutting means, and output with low priority. In which was to so that. Also,
The phrase recutting means is characterized in that the phrase is recut by including a compound word in front of the repositioning position designated by the phrase realignment instructing means.

[0013]

[Operation] When a character string is input from the input unit and a Kana-Kanji conversion instruction is given, the Kana-Kanji conversion means cuts the input character string into severable phrase candidates and converts the sentence into a Kanji-mixed sentence, and displays it on the display unit. . At this time, if the bunsetsu is accidentally cut and converted into a mixed kanji sentence, the bunsetsu is instructed to be recut. When the recutting of the bunsetsu is instructed, a new kanji-mixed sentence candidate including a compound word is created in front of the instructed recutting position. Then, a priority is determined for the re-converted conversion sequence of the bunsetsu by referring to a bunsetsu learning dictionary or the like, and a low priority is also output to a sequence other than the break specified by the bunsetsu re-run. To do so.

As a result, even if the phrase recutting operation is erroneously performed when the phrase recutting operation is unnecessary,
It becomes possible to select the conversion sequence desired by the user by the operation of selecting the next candidate without performing the operation of re-segmentation again. Further, when the phrase is recut, the kana-kanji conversion can be surely performed even when the position including the compound word is designated to instruct the phrase recut.

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 the arrangement of a document creating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, an input unit 11 is a keyboard for inputting various kinds of information necessary for creating a document. The input unit 11 is provided with various function keys such as a "conversion / next candidate" key, a "select / execute" key, and a "phrase recut" key in addition to the "character" key, the "numerical value" key, and the like. There is. Various input information from the input unit 11 is input to the Kana-Kanji conversion control unit 13 via the input control unit 12. A phrase recutting control unit 14 is connected to the input control unit 12 and the Kana-Kanji conversion control unit 13. These input control unit 12, Kanji conversion control unit 1
The RAM 15 is connected to the 3 and the phrase recut control section 14. The RAM 15 is provided with various areas such as an area 15a for temporarily storing a phrase recutting position and a document information area 15b for storing created document information.

The kana-kanji conversion control unit 13 refers to the kana-kanji conversion dictionary 16 to perform kana-kanji conversion, and stores the created sentence in the document information area 15b of the RAM 15.
The kana-kanji conversion dictionary 16 stores reading, a word (converted word) corresponding to the reading, grammatical information of the word, and semantic information indicating, for example, what the word means. The bunsetsu recutting control unit 14 performs bunsetsu recutting control when a bunsetsu recutting instruction is given.

Further, the Kana-Kanji conversion control unit 13 includes:
The candidate memory 17 and the phrase learning control unit 18 are connected. The candidate memory 17 stores a phrase candidate for the input character string and a conversion sequence in which the phrase candidates are connected in descending order of relevance. The bunsetsu learning control unit 18 refers to the bunsetsu learning dictionary 19 to determine the bunsetsu to be prioritized for the input character string, creates a plurality of conversion sequences, and registers the bunsetsu information to be learned in the bunsetsu learning dictionary 19. .

As shown in FIG. 2, the bunsetsu learning dictionary 19 reads the bunsetsu containing the front compound word and the back bunsetsu as the bunsetsu information indicating the delimitation between the bunsetsu containing the front side compound word and the back side phrase. A part of the reading of, for example, the reading of the stem, part of speech, connection information, and other information are registered. FIG. 2 shows an example in which the reading on the front side is “Emoji no” and the reading on the back clause is “Nyuryoku”.

The kana-kanji conversion control unit 13 outputs the document information stored in the document information area 15b to the display control unit 21. The display control unit 21 draws the document information and the like sent from the Kana-Kanji conversion control unit 13 in the display memory 22, and displays the image data on the display unit 23 such as a backlit LCD panel. Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described. As shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3, the input unit 11
A character string to be converted more, for example, "Kousei no Uhin no Kaihatsu"

Input the character string (step A1),
When kana-kanji conversion is instructed by the "conversion / next candidate" key (step A2), the input information is input to the kana-kanji conversion control unit 13 via the input control unit 12. As a result, the kana-kanji conversion control unit 13 separates the clauses,
Performs Kana-Kanji conversion processing. That is, the kana-kanji conversion control unit 13 refers to the kana-kanji conversion dictionary 16 and performs a grammatical analysis such as to which part of each bunsetsu is the stem and where is the attached word or the inflection ending, and all bunsetsu candidates obtained as a result are analyzed. Store in candidate memory 17 (steps A3, A4
).

Here, the phrase learning control unit 18 refers to the phrase learning dictionary 19 shown in FIG. 2 to judge which of the phrase candidates stored in the candidate memory 17 should be preferentially output (step A5). , A6) and a conversion sequence is created (step A7).

Next, the phrase learning control unit 18 refers to the phrase learning dictionary 19 to determine which of the conversion sequences stored in the candidate memory 17 should be output preferentially (step A).
8), the highest priority one is output to the display control unit 21 as the conversion result, displayed on the display unit 23 and waits for key input such as phrase recutting (steps A9, A10).

In this state, it is judged whether or not there is an instruction to re-phrase the phrase (step A11). If there is no instruction to re-phrase the phrase and the enter key is operated, the process is terminated. However, if the phrase recutting is instructed, the phrase recutting process is executed under the control of the phrase recutting control unit 14 based on the instruction. Now, for example, when the character string "Kousei no Hinhin Kaihatsu" is entered, the phrase "Kosei / Nouhinno / Kaihatsu" is cut and converted to "Development of component delivery". To do. For this conversion character, the user can "develop a high-performance product" by cutting the phrase "Kou / Seinou / Hinno / Kaihatsu".

If you want to convert the kana-kana characters,
Specify the character string "Kou" or "Kousei Nou" to instruct the phrase recutting. This phrase re-positioning is specified by, for example, the "function 1" key and the cursor key "←",
The position of the phrase break is specified by the combination operation of "→", and the execution of the phrase recut is instructed by the operation of the "select / execute" key. The position of the phrase recutting is indicated by, for example, inversion of the displayed character. The position information of the phrase re-cutting is stored in the phrase re-cutting position storage area 15 of the RAM 15.
It is temporarily stored in a.

When the phrase recutting is instructed, the phrase recutting control section 14 controls the phrase recutting. That is, the kana-kanji conversion control unit 13 refers to the position information for phrase re-cutting and the kana-kanji conversion dictionary 16 (step A12) and performs grammatical analysis to create a phrase candidate (step A13). Here, the bunsetsu learning control unit 18 refers to the bunsetsu learning dictionary 19 to determine the bunsetsu to be preferentially output among the bunsetsu candidates stored in the candidate memory 17 (steps A14 and A15), and determines the conversion sequence. Create and validate only the series that is cut at the shuffle position (step A
16). In this case, the re-cut front character string is subjected to kana-kanji conversion processing even in reading including a compound word. For example, even when a character string containing a compound word such as "Kousei Nou" is shuffled, conversion characters such as "high performance" are valid, and multiple conversion sequences including "development of high performance products" are effective. Judge as a series.

Further, the phrase learning control unit 18 invalidates a sequence in which the reconverted front side conversion character has two or more phrases for the above conversion sequence (step A17). For example, when a character string of "Emoji no" is input, it is converted to the compound word "Emoji no", and conversion including two phrases such as "Emomo no No" is performed. The conversion accuracy is improved by invalidating the series such as "picture also character" in which the conversion character of 2 is two or more clauses.

Next, the phrase learning control unit 18 refers to the phrase learning dictionary 19 to determine which of the conversion sequences stored in the candidate memory 17 should be prioritized, and determines the priority.
At this time, the conversion series other than the designated breaks stored in the candidate memory 17, that is, the conversion series before the phrase re-cutting instruction is issued, can be output with a lower priority than the conversion series in which the phrase is re-cut. (Step A1
8, 19).

Then, the highest priority one, for example, "development of high-performance product", from the conversion sequence with the determined priority is output to the display control unit 21 as the conversion result and displayed on the display unit 23 (step A20). ). If the displayed result is not what the user desires, move the cursor to the target clause position and operate the "convert / next candidate" key. By this key operation, the phrase candidate having the next highest priority is read from the candidate memory 17 and displayed on the display unit 23. Further, by designating “between homophones”, all the phrase candidates of the “homophone” stored in the candidate memory 17 are read out and displayed collectively in the editing area of the display unit 23.
A desired phrase candidate may be selected and designated from among them.

When the kana-kanji desired by the user is performed as described above, the converted sentence is confirmed by operating the "select / execute" key. Further, by performing this confirming operation, the content stored in the phrase re-positioning storage area 15a of the RAM 15 is cleared, and new phrase information associated with the phrase re-registration is registered in the phrase learning dictionary 19. That is, since new phrase information can be obtained in the process of searching the kana-kanji conversion dictionary 16 with a character string and performing grammatical checks such as word extraction, part-of-speech check, and connection check when executing the phrase re-cutting. This phrase information is registered in the phrase learning dictionary 19.

[0031]

As described above in detail, according to the present invention, a position including a compound word can be designated as a recutting position of a bunsetsu when the bunsetsu is shuffled. Even if the shuffle is performed, the kana-kanji conversion can be surely performed. In addition, even if the phrase recut operation is accidentally performed when the phrase reshuffle operation is not necessary, the conversion sequence before the instruction to reshuffle the phrase can be read from the candidate memory. The conversion sequence desired by the user can be selected by the selection operation of the next candidate without performing the switching operation, and the operability can be significantly improved.
