MEMO REGISTRATION AND SEARCH METHOD FOR A INTELLECTUAL TYPE PERSONAL INFORMATION MANEGEMENT SYSTEM}

The present invention relates to a memo registration and retrieval method of an intelligent personal information management system that performs semantic analysis through a memo natural language processing process input by a user, automatically classifies and stores the result, and retrieves the memo. In particular, the user frequently registers a search term as a query item icon in advance so that when a user selects the icon, the user can search for and display the memo including the search term defined in the icon to register the memo of the intelligent personal information management system. And a search method.

The personal information processing program generally refers to software that stores and manages memos such as personal schedules, task management, and contacts. The personal schedule refers to appointments, anniversaries, events, and the like. Business, etc. Finally, contact information refers to phone, fax, e-mail, address.

Such personal information processing programs have recently increased their necessity with the development of hand-held PCs that can be easily carried.

As described above, a method of using a conventional personal information processing program is as follows.

For example, consider a case where you want to register a schedule for "executive meetings at Yeouido every Tuesday at 2 pm" in the personal information processing program.

First, in the case of the personal information processor that manages the information such as personal schedule, work management, and contact as a single program, the user first decides the type of information (personal schedule, work management, contact) to register, Select the appropriate menu according to the type of information.

Afterwards, fill in the information according to the format that appears according to the menu you select.

Second, in the case of the personal information processor which manages personal information such as personal schedule, task management, and contact as a separate program, the user finds and executes a program corresponding to the information to be registered.

When the program is executed and the information is ready to be registered, the details are determined again.

Afterwards, the determined details are filled in according to the format that appears in the menu.

That is, "every Tuesday" at "every Tuesday from 2 pm to" every week is to repeat the appointment periodically, and determine as "recurring schedule", and select a recurring schedule from the menu.

Then, the information to be registered in accordance with the format that appears in the program corresponding to the recurring schedule is registered in the form defined in the application or database.

On the other hand, if the user wants to find the registered information through the same process as described above, as in the case of registering the information, select a menu that stores the information you want to find or run the program first, and then the place where the information is stored Find one by one.

In particular, if the user does not remember the exact date of the event, look for it every month or week, as if they were looking through the notebook.

However, in the prior art as described above, when a user registers personal information using a personal information processing program or tries to find registered information, the use method is very complicated and takes a long time and time to get used to. Even after the user saves or retrieves the information, the user has to perform several steps one by one.

Therefore, the present invention for solving the conventional problems as described above, by automatically sorting, storing, and retrieving notes, such as personal schedule, task management, contacts, etc., the user selects the application or menu, To provide a memo registration and retrieval method of intelligent personal information management system to eliminate the inconvenience to be executed.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a memo registration and retrieval method of an intelligent personal information management system that eliminates the inconvenience that a user has to modify and input information in a form defined in a corresponding application program or database.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a memo registration and retrieval method of an intelligent personal information management system that enables a user to easily search stored memos by simple keywords, natural language queries, icons, calendars, and the like.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a memo registration and retrieval method of an intelligent personal information management system that provides a convenience of not having to accurately remember a stored form by allowing the stored memo to be searched by similar words.

The present invention for achieving the above object is a first step of analyzing the meaning of the memo input by the user through a natural language processing process, and using the meaning dictionary and time / date pattern for the meaning analyzed in the first step And a third step of automatically classifying the memo, and a third step of automatically storing the memo according to the type of the memo classified in the second step.

In addition, the present invention is to analyze the meaning of the user's query through the natural language processing process, and then to extract the keyword, the query using the meaning dictionary and time / date pattern for the meaning analyzed in the first step And a third step of automatically classifying and searching for a memo including the keyword extracted in the first step.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is an operation flowchart of a memo registration method of the intelligent personal information management system of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, a first step (S101-S103) of analyzing a meaning of a memo input by a user through a natural language processing process and And a second step (S14) of automatically classifying the memo using a semantic dictionary and a time / date pattern for the meaning analyzed in the first step, and automatically storing the memo according to the type of the memo classified in the second step. A third step S105 is performed.

In addition, the memo retrieval method of the intelligent personal information management system of the present invention, as shown in Figure 3, the first step (S301-S303) of extracting a keyword after analyzing the meaning of the user's query through a natural language processing process and A second step (S304) of automatically classifying the query using a semantic dictionary and a time / date pattern, etc., with respect to the meaning analyzed in the first step, and searching for a memo including a keyword extracted in the first step; The third step (S305) is made.

When described in detail with respect to the operation and effect of the present invention made of each step as follows.

When a user makes a memo in the memo window 10 of the personal information processor shown in FIG. 4 in order to register a memo, a preprocessing process, a morphological analysis process, a date / time post-processing process are performed to analyze the meaning of the input memo. It goes through three stages of natural language processing.

First, the preprocessing process separates symbols, numbers, and Roman characters from the memo input by the user, and separates them from Hangeul, and analyzes them in advance by searching for specific expressions consisting of numbers or symbols such as phone numbers, facsimile numbers, and e-mail addresses.

Second, in the morphological analysis process, the parts of words of the memo are analyzed by the parts of speech using the parts of speech information of the words in the morpheme dictionary. From the analysis results, nouns, suffixes, foreign languages, etc. are determined as keywords of the memo.

Third, in the date / time post-processing process, adjacent words are examined to see if they have patterns such as "year-month-day", "year-month-week-day", and "time modifier-hour-minute", and their meanings. Analyze Here, the term "time" means words such as "am" and "pm" that may precede the "hour-minute" pattern.

In this way, according to the semantic results analyzed in the three steps automatically belong to the personal schedule, work management, or contacts belong to the classification.

First, the separation principle of personal schedule and work management is classified as work management when only the closing time is indicated on the memo by using the analysis result of date / time expression.

Second, they are classified as contacts only if they were analyzed by phone number or e-mail address during the preprocessing.

Third, memos, except for the first and second cases, are classified as personal schedules.

In this way, the memo input is classified into personal schedule, task management, and contact information, and the classified memo is stored in the corresponding database (DB). Expand (Keyword).

In the method of expanding the keyword, the upper word and the synonym are read from the semantic dictionary in terms of the keyword. The upper word refers to a word located at the top of two words connected by arrows as shown in FIG.

The reason for the expansion of the keyword is to improve the search speed by examining both the upper term and the synonym in advance.

Therefore, the input memo and the extended keyword are stored together in the corresponding database.

An example of the memo registration process described so far is as follows.

For example, when a user inputs a memo "1/3 5PM ~ 6PM VIP board" in the memo window 10 of the personal information processor shown in FIG. 4, first, the preprocessing process consists of numbers, symbols, and Roman characters. After the expressions "1/3", "5PM", "~", "6PM", "VIP", etc., "1/3" is "January 3" and "5PM" is "5 pm "", "~" As "symbol", "6PM" to "6 pm", "VIP" is analyzed in a foreign language, respectively.

In this way, the numbers, symbols, and Roman characters are separated in the preprocessing process, and the separated expressions are analyzed in advance (step S101 in FIG. 1).

Then, in the morphological analysis process, using the morpheme dictionary, "VIP room" + VIP (foreign language) + room (suffix) + to (subject investigation)), and "board" for the board (common noun) + times (Suffix).

Information such as " sil (suffix) ", " in (sub-firing search) " is stored in the morpheme dictionary (step S102 in Fig. 1).

On the other hand, nouns, suffixes, foreign languages, etc. among the results analyzed in the preprocessing and morphological analysis are determined by the keyword of the memo, and the keywords are "director", "time", "VIP", and "room". do.

In the date / time post-processing, the results of the pre-processing are combined to make one meaning.

In other words, "5PM", "~", "6PM" combined to analyze the meaning of "5 pm to 6 pm", and the first word "1/3" is combined, "January 3 at 5 pm To 6 pm "(step S103 in Figure 1).

As described above, the classification of the memo corresponds to a personal schedule, task management, or contact information with a meaning analyzed through a preprocessing process, a morphological analysis process, and a date / time postprocessing process. Since both the closing time and the time are displayed, it is classified into a personal schedule. (In FIG. 1, step S104).

After the memo classification process, it proceeds to the storage step. During the storage process, "Move", "Time", "VIP", "Real", etc. are extracted from the memo as keywords, and "Move" is based on the meaning dictionary. The synonyms "meeting" of the parent words "officer" and "meeting" are expanded with keywords, and the memo is stored in the personal schedule database together with the extended keywords.

Then, the sentence "schedule registration success" appears in the result window 20 of Figure 4, the user sees the sentence to confirm that the schedule is registered.

Looking at the process of searching for the desired information from the registered information through the process as described above, as in the case of registering the information, the semantic analysis through the natural language processing process and extracts the keywords required for the search.

Then, the query is classified by determining whether the user's input is personal schedule, task management, or contact, according to the analyzed semantic result.

According to the classification result, the extracted keyword is searched for the corresponding database using the analyzed date / time expression.

For example, if a user makes a query to the memo window 10 as shown in FIG. 5, "What is the day of the executive meeting this week?" Analyze the meaning through the post-hour processing and extract the nouns "executive" and "meeting" as keywords for the memo.

Based on the extracted keywords and the analyzed meanings, the query is classified as belonging to personal schedule, task management or contact.

At this time, classification is done with semantic dictionary.

Thereafter, a search for "executive meeting every 10 o'clock in the morning", which includes "executives" and "meetings", is shown in the resultant database.

On the other hand, the "1/3 5PM ~ 6PM VIP Board of Directors" note does not contain the same words as the keywords included in the query, but during the registration process, the keywords expanded in the semantic dictionary based on "executive", It can be seen that words such as "meeting" are also included.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, the "Meeting board" in the 1/3 5PM ~ 6PM VIP room and the keywords "Executive" and "Meeting" matched with the keyword of the query expanded during the schedule registration process are searched. Each week at 10 AM executive meeting "note appears in the results window (20).

The user then checks the schedule by looking at the result displayed in the result window 20.

In addition to the natural language search using the memo window 10, the personal information processor may search for the registered information using the query item icon 40 or the calendar 70.

That is, if a query item icon 40 is registered in advance with a keyword frequently used by a user, a keyword of a query sentence, a contact information, or the like, the necessary information can be conveniently found by simply clicking the icon once.

For example, as shown in FIG. 5, once the meeting icon is clicked, the day of the meeting is searched and displayed in the result window 20. If the call icon is clicked once, the day to be called is searched and the result window 20 is displayed. Show on, once the business trip icon click once to search the day to go to travel and show in the result window (20).

This provides a more convenient convenience to the user because the user does not need to enter a memo in the memo window (10).

And the query item icons 40 to toggle the "query item / calendar" button, toggle the query item / calendar is converted to a calendar, the calendar displays the day with the personal schedule or task management.

If you want to search your personal calendar or to-do list for a specific date, just click once on the calendar date.

And, to modify and delete the registered personal schedule or task management, if you select the personal schedule or task management shown in the result window 20 shown in FIG. 5, the memo is changed to the edit mode to modify or delete the searched contents, or Use a separate "Edit" menu to modify and delete.

The personal information processor, as shown in Figure 5, there is a notification button 30 that can be set to notify the user in advance to a personal schedule or task management at a specific time, the address book button 50 showing the address book, the user showing the user dictionary A dictionary button 60, a date with personal schedule or task management is displayed, and a single-click calendar button 70 for easily searching for a personal schedule or task management of a specific date is further provided.

Using the buttons provided in this way, the user can easily search for the desired information.

As described above, the personal information processor capable of registering and retrieving personal information is applicable to any information device capable of text or voice input.

Examples include desktop PCs, hand-held PCs, Web browsers on the Internet, telephones, and TVs.

As described in detail above, the present invention, semantic analysis of the input memo through a natural language processing process, by extracting the keyword by this analysis to expand the keyword, to classify and store the expanded keyword and memo, the stored memo It can be automatically searched by the user so that the user can learn easily and provide convenience to the user.
