[0018]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a method for publishing a personal history book according to the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an apparatus for executing the method for publishing a personal history book.

In FIG. 1, a database 1 contains a history book relating to a specific person (hereinafter referred to as a "person history book"), a template sentence in which a blank is provided at a predetermined location, and / or these template sentences. Are stored at least in the initial order. Note that this initial manuscript can be a published manuscript by inserting unique data described below in blanks of the template sentence to complete the sentence.

The initial document can be updated by an input from the input unit 2 or information taken out from an external storage medium or another recording medium as needed. Input unit 2
Is a means for inputting data relating to items to be inserted into blanks of each template sentence (hereinafter referred to as “unique data”). It is also used to input an operation command to be performed by the CPU 3. Further, as the input unit 2, input devices such as a keyboard, a numeric keypad, a mouse, and the like, and a device such as a scanner for inputting an image or data corresponding to an image are preferably used.

The CPU 3 edits the initial document based on the unique data in response to a command input from the input unit 2. More specifically, as described later, for example, the above-described unique data is inserted into blanks corresponding to each data of the template sentence of the initial manuscript, and a template sentence having only blank spaces that cannot be filled in because there is no corresponding unique data. Create a manuscript by deleting it. The manuscript thus obtained is subjected to proofreading and the like in accordance with a command from the input unit 2,
It is sent to the display 6 for display, or sent to the output unit 5 for output.

The memory 4 is used to provide a work area for performing calculations, such as temporary storage of calculation results in the CPU 3, and the like. The output unit 5 includes, for example, a printer or an interface to a network or an external device. Here, the original sent from the CPU 3 is
It is printed or output externally via an interface for further processing.

Hereinafter, a method for publishing a personal history book as a specific embodiment of the method for publishing a personal history book of the present invention using the above apparatus will be described. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a first embodiment of a method for publishing a personal history book. FIG.
Is a flowchart for explaining a further preferred embodiment of the first embodiment.

In FIG. 2, in step S11, a questionnaire in a question format prepared in advance is distributed to a person who wishes to publish his / her own history book (hereinafter, referred to as "user"), and the user answers the questionnaire in the questionnaire. , And return it to the person who actually receives the order for publishing his / her own history book (hereinafter referred to as "the manufacturer").

The questionnaire can be distributed to the user by mail or the like on a suitable recording medium such as a magnetic recording medium on which the questionnaire is written, or distributed to the user via a network such as the Internet. And the like.

Here, this questionnaire is provided for each age, such as "birth-childhood" and "elementary school".
For example, it is composed of a question that can be answered in a YES / NO format, a question in which several options are prepared and the user selects an applicable one from the options, a question in which user-specific information is entered, and the like. In addition, the user is given a YES /
Regarding a question that can be answered in the NO format or a question that allows the user to select an answer from options, a method of marking the corresponding portion using, for example, a mark sheet format may be adopted. By giving the answer in the mark sheet system, the manufacturer can mechanically perform batch processing, so that it is possible to shorten the delivery time and cost of the personal history book.

Here, information obtained from these questions is information related to a person (hereinafter, referred to as "person information").
Is treated as Specifically, for example, in the section of “birth to childhood”, the date of birth, place of birth, names of parents,
The user answers detailed questions such as family structure at birth and weight at birth as far as the memory allows.

For example, in the section of "elementary school age", for example, detailed questions such as the date of enrollment, school name, memory at the time of enrollment, time required for commuting to school, impressions of school roads, and teachers at home at that time were asked. It is prepared and the user answers each question.

Here, for example, a question that requires an answer based on the user's own clear memory, for example, a scene of an entrance ceremony,
Various options are prepared for the scenery of the school road to support the user's memory restoration, and the user selects the relevant option.

In this way, even a piece of information in the distant past can be answered based on the memory restored by these options. Step S12
Then, the returned questionnaire result, that is, the person-specific information, is input by the manufacturer in principle as the above-mentioned unique data. Specifically, an answer to each question is input using the input unit 2 shown in FIG. At this time, the data input person mechanically inputs only the answer part.

In particular, when a mark sheet format is used as the answer format, the surface of the answer sheet may be scanned and input by ordinary mark sheet reading means. Alternatively, the answer sheet may be directly input as two-dimensional data using an input unit such as a scanner, and may be input.
These methods are preferable because data input can be facilitated and the probability of occurrence of a mistake at the time of input can be reduced.

When the questionnaire is distributed via a network, the responses to the questionnaire may also be collected via the network, and the collected data may be downloaded by the manufacturer, and this may be used as an input step.

In step S13, the input unique data is evaluated. Specifically, the CPU 3 checks each blank of the template sentence group in the initial manuscript stored in the database 1 with the unique data, and there is no unique data corresponding to all blanks. A template sentence requesting only missing information as unique data is extracted as “unnecessary template sentence”.

As a method of making this correspondence, for example, the attributes of the blanks in the template text and the answer column of the questionnaire are assigned one-to-one or a plurality of blanks are assigned to one answer column. Defined, CPU
A method of collating this attribute in 3 is given. Note that an index may be provided for this attribute as needed.

In step S14, the initial manuscript is edited to become an edited manuscript. Specifically, step S13
By editing the unnecessary template sentence extracted in the above by deleting from the initial manuscript, an edited manuscript is created.

In step S15, the corresponding unique data is inserted into each blank of the template sentence of the edited manuscript obtained in step S14 to complete the sentence, thereby creating the manuscript. As the insertion method, for example, there is a method of searching for an answer column having an attribute that matches the attribute of each blank as described above, and inserting the unique data corresponding to the searched answer column.

If the unique data is descriptive data, such as a name and a birthday, which cannot be selected from the prepared options, the information itself entered in the answer column and the data selected from the options are used. In some cases, predetermined information related to the selected option is inserted.

The predetermined information related to the selected option includes, for example, the above-mentioned “thing about the teacher in charge at the time” in elementary school, “scary”, “gentle”,
Information selected by the user when the user selects an option from among “Education enthusiast”, “Strict and difficult to approach”, “Bright and friendly”, and the like, for example, “Gentle”. For example, "a teacher in charge is A, B, or C." is prepared as a template sentence relating to this. "Gentle" is inserted in the blank A in this step. In this case, the blanks are A, B,
C and three are prepared, but if the answer is less than three, the extra blank is regarded as "unnecessary blank" in step S1.
It is deleted at 7.

In step S16, the layout of the document obtained in step S15 is constructed. This is performed to correct an unnatural spatial arrangement caused by deletion of the template sentence in step S14, or to make a sentence arrangement desired by the user.

This is usually performed on the manufacturer side by the operator while looking at the screen of the display 6 shown in FIG.
In step S17, the document whose layout is determined is corrected. This is also usually performed by the manufacturer, as described above. Here, while the general proofreading of the sentence is performed,
Incomplete sentences are selectively removed. As a method of selecting an incomplete sentence, first, a sentence in which a blank is left is extracted, and it is determined whether or not each of the extracted sentences forms a body as a sentence, and only sentences that do not form a body are selected. Method. Here, a sentence that has been extracted as having a blank space but has not been selected as a formless text is deleted as an “unnecessary blank space”.

The operations in steps S16 and S17 can be performed by the user if necessary. In this case, the manuscript is sent to the user from the maker via a mail, a network, or the like in the form of a document or file.

In step S18, printing and bookbinding are performed based on the proofread document. This bound personal history book is provided for publication. Further, in the first mode of the method of publishing the self-history book, more preferably, as shown in FIG. 3, based on the arbitrary information, the social event is paired with the year of occurrence in the form of a chronology. Step S26 is provided, which is a social information extraction step of extracting information related to a social event from a data group obtained by collecting the collected data.

A predetermined data group is stored in advance in the database 1 shown in FIG. 1 for the processing in step S26. The predetermined data group includes, for example, a fixed sentence in which social facts are sentence, a keyword for searching for the fixed sentence, and an attribute corresponding to each fixed document or each keyword as necessary. An information table. Further, this social information table is provided, as necessary, by an input from the input unit 2 of FIG. 1 or information extracted from an external storage medium or another recording medium.
Can be updated.

In FIG. 3, in steps S21 and S22, operations similar to those in steps S11 and S12 in the first mode shown in FIG. 2 are performed using the input unit 2 and the like in FIG.

However, the information input here is the personal information as described above, and any information related to social events or incidents related to each event or era experienced by this “person” (hereinafter, referred to as “person”). "Arbitrary information").

Regarding the optional information, a question is provided for answering the keyword of the historical background in each age, for example, those that have a memory of incidents, events, trends, and the like.

The keywords are words or symbols related to the historical background in each era, and the attributes of each keyword correspond to the attributes of a specific fixed sentence in the social information table. Examples of the keyword include a person's name, a case name, a buzzword, and the like. When answering the keyword, the user may directly enter the keyword, or an option based on the keyword in each era may be prepared in advance and this option may be selected.

Thus, even when the user has to rely on the unclear memory or the fragmentary memory, the user can use the keyword to look at a large amount of materials as conventionally attached without fragmenting the document. Can restore and respond to memories related to social information.

In this embodiment, the personal information and the optional information are input at the same time, but may be input separately. In step S23, the CPU 3 in FIG. 1 evaluates the input data. That is, the input data is classified into data relating to person-specific information (hereinafter, referred to as “person data”) and data relating to arbitrary information (hereinafter, referred to as “arbitrary data”). As described above, this classification can be performed by fetching the attribute of each data defined in advance in the database 1 and collating the attribute for each data input by the CPU 3.

Also, as in step S13 in FIG. 2 described above, the CPU 3 checks each blank of the template text in the initial manuscript stored in the database 1 with the person data, and matches the corresponding person data in all blanks. Does not exist,
That is, a template sentence requesting only information for which no response has been made by the user as unique data is extracted as “unnecessary template sentence”.

In step S24, step S1 in FIG.
As in the case of No. 4, the initial manuscript is edited and becomes an edited manuscript. Specifically, the template document extracted in step S23 is edited by deleting the template document from the initial document, thereby creating an edited document.

In step S25, the corresponding person data is inserted into each blank space of the template sentence of the edited manuscript obtained in step S24 in the same manner as in step S15 to complete the sentence and create the manuscript. I do.

On the other hand, in step S26, corresponding social information is extracted from the social information table based on the arbitrary data. Specifically, based on arbitrary data, that is, a keyword, a fixed sentence corresponding to the keyword is extracted from the social information table. When a keyword is answered by selecting an option, the fixed sentence may be extracted using the attribute of each answer.

In step S27, the social information extracted in step S26 is inserted into a predetermined position in the document created in step S25. For example, a fixed sentence related to social information is inserted so that a sentence related to a social event at that time is included in an introductory part of the section on birth.

This insertion method may be performed manually by the operator, but is preferably performed as follows. In the questionnaire, an attribute is defined for an answer or a place where the answer is related to social information, and the social information extracted based on the answer is defined by this attribute. On the other hand, the attributes of the corresponding items are defined in the initial document. The social information is inserted at the position where the attribute of the social information matches the item defined in the initial manuscript while matching.

More specifically, when there is an answer about the social information at the time of birth, the social information extracted based on this answer in step S26 is placed in the place of birth of the manuscript obtained in step S25. insert. Which part of the birth item is to be inserted may be automatically determined by defining the attributes in the initial manuscript more finely, or may be determined while the operator views the screen of the display 6. Is also good.

In step S28, the layout of the document into which the text related to social information is inserted in step S27 is constructed. Subsequently, in steps S29 and S30, as in steps S17 and S18 in FIG. 2, proofreading, printing, and bookbinding are performed, and the obtained personal history book is provided for publication.

In this preferred embodiment, the sentence inserting step (step S27) is replaced with the manuscript creating step (step S2).
5), an example is shown in which the social information extracted in step S26 is inserted into the original created in step S25. However, step S27 is provided between step S24 and step S25. The social information may be inserted into the edited manuscript itself before inserting the person data (not shown).

FIG. 4 is a flowchart for explaining a second embodiment of the method of publishing a personal history book according to the present invention.
Is a flowchart for explaining a further preferred embodiment of the second embodiment.

The database 1 contains a sentence data group consisting of a plurality of template sentences which constitute a history book (hereinafter referred to as "person history book") relating to a specific person and have blanks provided at predetermined positions. At least it has been accumulated. In addition, attributes are defined in each blank column, and attributes are also defined in each answer column of the questionnaire. Each attribute is defined such that a plurality of blanks are assigned, for example, one-to-one or one answer column. Note that an index can be provided for this attribute as needed.

In FIG. 4, in steps S41 and S42, the same operations as those in steps S11 and S12 in the above-described first embodiment are performed using the input unit 2 or the like in FIG.
That is, in step S41, the above-mentioned questionnaire is answered, and in step S42, the result of the questionnaire is input.

In step S43, the input data is evaluated, and a necessary template text is extracted from the text data group of the database 1 based on the data. Specifically, first, the input data (specific data)
Is evaluated to detect an attribute defined for each unique data. Next, a blank having an attribute corresponding to the detected attribute is detected from the sentence data group, and a template sentence having at least one detected blank is extracted as a “necessary template sentence”.

In step S44, one edited manuscript is obtained by arranging the template sentences extracted in step S43. As a method of arranging the template sentences, identification data such as a serial number is provided in advance for each template sentence, and, for example, arrangement is performed in ascending order of the numbers. The operator may arrange the template sentences while looking at the screen of the display 6.

In step S45, the corresponding person data is inserted into each blank of the template sentence of the edited manuscript obtained in step S44 in the same manner as in step S15 of the first embodiment, thereby completing the sentence. And create a manuscript.

In step S46, the layout of the document obtained in step S45 is constructed. Step S
At 47, the document whose layout is determined is corrected.
That is, here, similar to step S17 in FIG. 2, the general proofreading of the sentence is performed, the incomplete sentence is selectively deleted, and the “unnecessary blank” described above is also deleted.

In step S48, printing and bookbinding are performed based on the proofread document. This bound personal history book is provided for publication. Further, in the second mode of the method of publishing a self-history book, more preferably, as shown in FIG. 5, based on the arbitrary information, a social event is paired with the year in which the social event occurred in the form of a chronology. Step S56 is provided, which is a social information extraction step of extracting information relating to a social event from a data group obtained by collecting the collected data.

Note that for the processing in step S56,
As described in the embodiment of FIG. 3, a predetermined data group is stored in advance in the database 1 shown in FIG. This predetermined data group is as described above.

In FIG. 5, in steps S51 and S52, the same operations as those in steps S41 and S42 in the second mode in FIG. 4 are performed using the input unit 2 and the like in FIG.

However, the information input here consists of person information and arbitrary information as described above, as in the embodiment in FIG. Note that these pieces of information are input at the same time in this mode as in the mode shown in FIG. 3, but may be input separately.

In step S53, the CPU 3 of FIG. 1 evaluates the input data. That is, the input data is classified into the person data and the arbitrary data as described above. As described above, this classification can be performed by fetching the attribute of each data defined in advance in the database 1 and collating the attribute for each data input by the CPU 3.

Subsequently, in step S54, based on the above-mentioned person data, a necessary template sentence is extracted from the sentence data group of the database 1. This extraction method is shown in FIG.
This is the same method as step S43 of the aspect.

In step S55, one edited manuscript is obtained by arranging the template sentences extracted in step S54. The method of arranging the template sentences is similar to the method of step S44 in the mode of FIG.

On the other hand, in step S56, corresponding social information is extracted from the social information table based on the arbitrary data. Specifically, based on arbitrary data, that is, a keyword, a fixed sentence corresponding to the keyword is extracted from the social information table. When a keyword is answered by selecting an option, the fixed sentence may be extracted using the attribute of each answer.

In step S57, the social information extracted in step S56 is inserted into a predetermined position in the edited manuscript obtained in step S55. For example, a fixed sentence related to social information is inserted so that a sentence related to a social event at that time is included in an introductory part of the section on birth. This insertion method is the same as step S27 in the mode of FIG.

In step S58, the corresponding person data is inserted into each blank space of the template sentence of the edited manuscript into which the sentence relating to social information is inserted in step S57 in the same manner as in step S45 of the second embodiment. To complete the text and create the manuscript.

In step S59, the layout of the document obtained in step S58 is constructed, and then in step S6
In the case of 0, the document whose layout is determined by the method of step S47 in FIG. 4 is calibrated.

In step S61, printing and bookbinding are performed based on the proofread document. This bound personal history book is provided for publication. In this preferred embodiment, the text insertion step (step S57) is provided after the editing step (step S55), and the social information extracted in step S56 is inserted into the edited manuscript edited and created in step S55. Although an example has been described, this step S56
In step S55, the social information extracted in step S55 may be used for editing to arrange the template sentences and the insertion of fixed sentences related to social information may be performed simultaneously (not shown).

FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining the third embodiment of the method of publishing a personal history book according to the present invention.
Is a flowchart for explaining a further preferred embodiment of the third embodiment.

As in the second embodiment, the database 1 constitutes a history book relating to a specific person (hereinafter, referred to as "person history book"), and is provided with a blank at a predetermined position. At least a sentence data group including a plurality of template sentences is stored. In addition, attributes are defined in each blank column, and attributes are also defined in each answer column of the questionnaire. Each attribute is
For example, it is defined such that a plurality of blanks are assigned to one answer column or one answer column. Note that an index can be provided for this attribute as needed.

In FIG. 6, in steps S71 and S72, the same operations as those in steps S11 and S12 in the first embodiment described above are performed using the input unit 2 and the like in FIG.
That is, in step S71, an answer to the above-described questionnaire is made, and in step S72, the result of the questionnaire is input.

In step S73, the input data is evaluated, and a necessary template text is extracted from the text data group of the database 1 based on the data. This extraction method is the same as the method in the second embodiment shown in FIG.

In step S74, the corresponding person data is inserted into each blank of each template sentence extracted in step S73 in the same manner as in step S15 of the first embodiment, thereby completing the sentence.

In step S75, one sentence is obtained by arranging the sentences completed in step S74. As a method for arranging the sentences, step S44 in FIG.
Similarly to the method of arranging the template sentences, identification data such as a serial number is provided in advance in each template sentence, and the finally completed sentences are arranged, for example, in ascending order of the numbers. The operator may arrange the template sentences while looking at the screen of the display 6.

In step S76, the layout of the document obtained in step S75 is constructed. Step S
At 77, the document whose layout is determined is corrected.
That is, here, similar to step S17 in FIG. 2, the general proofreading of the sentence is performed, the incomplete sentence is selectively deleted, and the “unnecessary blank” described above is also deleted.

In step S78, printing and bookbinding are performed based on the proofread document. This bound personal history book is provided for publication. Further, in the third embodiment of the method of publishing the self-history book, more preferably, as shown in FIG. 7, based on the arbitrary information, a social event is paired with the year in which the social event occurred in the form of a chronology. Step S87 is provided, which is a social information extraction step of extracting information related to a social event from a data group obtained by collecting the collected data.

Note that, for the processing in step S87,
As described in the embodiment of FIG. 3, a predetermined data group is stored in advance in the database 1 shown in FIG. This predetermined data group is as described above.

In FIG. 7, in steps S81 and S82, operations similar to the operations in steps S71 and S72 in the third mode in FIG. 6 are performed using the input unit 2 or the like in FIG.

However, the information input here consists of personal information and arbitrary information as described above, as in the embodiment in FIG. Note that these pieces of information are input at the same time in this mode as in the mode shown in FIG. 3, but may be input separately.

In step S83, the CPU 3 of FIG. 1 evaluates the input data. That is, the input data is classified into the person data and the arbitrary data as described above. As described above, this classification can be performed by fetching the attribute of each data defined in advance in the database 1 and collating the attribute for each data input by the CPU 3.

Subsequently, in step S84, based on the above-mentioned person data, a necessary template sentence is extracted from the sentence data group of the database 1. This extraction method is shown in FIG.
Step S43 of the embodiment of FIG. 6 and step S43 of the embodiment of FIG.
This is the same method as 73.

In step S85, corresponding person data is inserted into each blank of each template sentence extracted in step S84 by the same method as in step S15 of FIG. 2 and step S74 of FIG. To complete the sentence.

In step S86, one original is created by arranging the sentences completed in step S85. As a method of arranging the sentences, step S7 in the mode of FIG.
This is a method similar to the method of No. 5.

On the other hand, in step S87, corresponding social information is extracted from the social information table based on the arbitrary data. Specifically, based on arbitrary data, that is, a keyword, a fixed sentence corresponding to the keyword is extracted from the social information table. When a keyword is answered by selecting an option, the fixed sentence may be extracted using the attribute of each answer.

In step S88, the social information extracted in step S87 is inserted into a predetermined position in the document created in step S86. For example, a fixed sentence related to social information is inserted so that a sentence related to a social event at that time is included in an introductory part of the section on birth.
This insertion method is the same as step S27 in the mode of FIG.

In step S89, the layout of the document into which information related to social and social information is inserted in step S88 is constructed. In step S90, the document whose layout is determined is calibrated in the same manner as in step S77 of FIG.

In step S91, printing and bookbinding are performed based on the proofread document. This bound personal history book is provided for publication. In this preferred embodiment, an example is shown in which the sentence insertion step (step S88) is provided after the editing step (step S86), and the social information extracted in step S87 is inserted into the manuscript created in step S86. However, the social information extracted in step S87 is used for preparing the manuscript in step S86, and the sentences completed in step S85 are rearranged.
The insertion of fixed sentences related to social information may be performed at the same time (not shown).

In all of the above-described embodiments, the attributes of the data input by the input unit 2 and the data in the database 1 are defined at the time of searching for data extraction from the database 1 in FIG. Although the method of matching this attribute has been described, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, based on data input by the input unit 2, an address is generated, and the corresponding data in the database 1 is directly stored in accordance with the address. You may search and extract.

According to each aspect of the self-history book publishing method described above, the user simply answers the questionnaire including, for example, a mark sheet, and operates the maker based on the answer to convert the self-history book into a sentence. A manuscript can be created.

Therefore, when producing a self-history book, the user can produce and publish his own history book without requiring complete memory and writing and composition skills.
This makes it possible to solve the difficulties in manuscript preparation and various problems related to publishing based on the difficulty of restoring the memory of the creator of self-history books and the lack of writing ability. Furthermore, since the operation on the manufacturer side is mechanical, it can be easily performed in a short time. Therefore, it is possible to publish a personal history book with a short delivery date and at a low price.

Further, a social information extracting step is provided, and the social information extracted in the step is inserted into a blank of the template sentence or edited in a blank before inserting the personal information or a predetermined document in the manuscript obtained by inserting. By inserting it in the position, it becomes easy to create your own history book reflecting the historical background.

In this embodiment, the method of publishing a personal history book in the case of “self” as a specific person has been described. However, if a specific person other than yourself, such as a father or mother, is answered by a questionnaire, You can produce and publish a personal history book about this particular person.

[0102]

As described above, according to the method for publishing a personal history book according to the present invention, a person who wishes to produce a personal history book has:
By simply providing data for inputting the history of a specific person in the input process, a manuscript of a person history book can be created in the form of a sentence by an operation on the publishing order receiving side based on this data.

Therefore, in producing a human history book, a person who wants to produce can produce and publish a human history book without requiring writing ability, etc. It is possible to solve various difficulties in manuscript preparation and various problems related to publication. Further, since the operation on the order receiving side is mechanical, it can be easily performed in a short time. Therefore, it becomes possible to publish a personal history book with a short delivery date and at a low price.

Further, a social information extracting step is provided, and the social information extracted in the step is inserted into a blank of the template sentence or edited in a blank before inserting the personal information or in a predetermined document in the manuscript obtained by inserting. By inserting it at the position, it becomes easy to produce a personal history book reflecting the historical background.
