Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a proofreading point display method and apparatus for pointing out errors in a text.

Conventional technology FIG. 6 shows a configuration diagram of a conventional calibration device.

This device includes a text input section 1, a text storage section 2, an analysis section 3, an error detection section 4, and an error display section 5. This device stores input Japanese text strings, and when instructed to detect errors in the stored Japanese text strings, it analyzes the Japanese text strings and uses the results. The system detects possible errors and displays the results as areas that need to be corrected. Here, there are multiple types of errors detected, such as "errors in particles,""errors in usage terms," and "inconsistency in writing style."

Further, detection and display of these errors may be performed all at once or sequentially.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention Conventional proofreading devices, especially devices that detect all errors contained in a specified text at once, display multiple errors as detection results, and In most cases, there are multiple types of errors.

In such a situation, the error that the operator is currently paying attention to and is attempting to proofread will be displayed in combination with other errors. For example, if the type of error that the operator is currently focusing on is a mixture of "r desu・masu tone" and "r da・de deru tone", that is, detection of "inconsistency in writing style", the operator can detect the target Japanese Although I would like to list the "inconsistency of writing style" contained in the text string,
Among the errors displayed, in addition to ``inconsistency in writing style'', errors such as ``errors in usage terms'' and ``errors in particles'' also appear at the same time. As a result, the error that is currently being focused on may be obscured by other errors, causing the operator to overlook areas that should have been corrected, or having to perform operations to remove errors other than the one that is currently being focused on. , there were problems such as significantly interrupting the operator's thinking.

In view of the above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a proofreading point display device and method for displaying detected errors in Japanese text character strings in an easy-to-understand manner and accurately displaying necessary errors to an operator. purpose.

Embodiment (Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 shows a configuration diagram of a calibration point display device in a first embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 1, 11
Enter a Japanese text string in the text input section. A word processor, an optical character reader, or the like is used for this purpose.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a processing range designation unit that designates a range of partial character strings to be subjected to proofreading among the input Japanese text character strings. Reference numeral 13 denotes a text storage unit that holds partial character strings to be proofread. An analysis unit 14 performs analysis processing such as morphological analysis, syntactic analysis, semantic analysis, and statistical analysis on the Japanese text held in the text storage unit 13. Reference numeral 15 denotes an analysis dictionary which stores a large amount of information for the analysis section 14 to analyze Japanese sentences. 16
An error detection unit uses the information output from the analysis unit 14 to detect possible errors in the Japanese text. Errors detected include "wrong usage of terminology", "
Examples include incorrect particles and ``inconsistency in writing style.'' The error detection unit 16 outputs information specifying the error together with attribute information such as the error type. Reference numeral 17 denotes an error storage section that stores a large amount of error information that is output from the error detection section 16 and is a pair of information specifying an error and its attribute information.

Reference numeral 18 denotes an attribute specification section for specifying an attribute, which is information that limits errors to be displayed. Here, it is assumed that the attribute is the type of error detected.

Reference numeral 19 denotes an error selection section which selects and outputs only error information having the attribute specified by the attribute specification section 18 from among the large number of error information stored in the error storage section 17. Reference numeral 20 denotes an error display section that displays error information output from the error selection section 19 in a predetermined format. At this time, the display format is changed depending on the attribute information of each error, such as changing the color of the display depending on the type of error.

The operation of the calibration point display device of this embodiment configured as described above will be described below.

(1) The operator inputs a Japanese text string from the text input section 11. After that, in order to proofread the input text, it tries to find errors in the text and gives instructions to that effect.

(2) Thereafter, the operator uses the processing range designation unit 12 to designate a range of text to be proofread within the entire text string.

(3) The text storage unit 13 stores the range-specified Japanese text character string.

(4) The analysis unit 14, while referring to the analysis dictionary 15,
The Japanese text string held in the text storage unit 13 is analyzed and the result is output.

(5) The error detection unit 16 inspects the analysis result output from the analysis unit 14 and outputs error information to the error storage unit 17 after detecting a portion that may be incorrect as a Japanese sentence. For example, the sentence shown in FIG. 3(a) is
After the analysis is performed, the error detection unit 16 performs the analysis as shown in FIG. 3(b).
An error in the particle shown in , an error in the usage of the verb "send", and an inconsistency in writing style are detected as errors and output to the error storage section 17. The error storage unit 17 stores the output error information.

(6) The operator inputs the currently noticed error from the attribute specifying section 18. For example, if the type of error that the operator is interested in is detection of "particle error", that fact is input.

(7) The error selection section 19 selects error information having the attribute specified by the attribute specification section 18 from the error storage section 17 and outputs it to the error display section 20. In this case, only errors in particles are selected and output.

(8) The error display section 20 displays the information output from the error selection section 19 on a display device in order to present it to the operator. For example, of all the error information shown in FIG. 3(b), only particle errors are displayed in the format shown in FIG. 4.

As described above, in this embodiment, even if there are multiple errors detected and they are of multiple types, only the error that the operator is currently paying attention to and is attempting to proofread can be selectively displayed. I can do it. This prevents the error that the operator is currently paying attention to and other errors from being displayed together. The operator will not miss a point that should be made.Furthermore, there will be no need to perform operations to remove errors other than those currently under consideration, and the operator's thinking will not be significantly interrupted.

In this example, the types of errors detected are ``inconsistency in writing style'', ``errors in usage terms'', and ``errors in particles'', but other types of errors, such as ``terms errors'', are detected. It may be possible to detect errors such as "inconsistency", "errors in verb usage", "grammatical errors", and "errors in orthography". In this embodiment, the error attribute information is the type of error, but it may also be other information such as the severity of the error or position information in the entire sentence string. Further, a plurality of these may be used as attribute information. In this embodiment, the type of error is used as the attribute information for selecting errors, but other attribute information such as the severity of the error and position information in the entire text string may also be used. In this embodiment, the display color is changed depending on the type of error, but the display may be displayed in other display formats such as changing the display size depending on other attribute information. Furthermore, it goes without saying that display formats do not need to be differentiated based on attributes. In this embodiment, a partial character string in the entire text string is used as the target character string for error detection, but it goes without saying that the entire text string may be used as the target character string.

(Embodiment 2) FIG. 2 shows a configuration diagram of a calibration point display device in a second embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 2, 31
Enter a Japanese text string in the text input section. A word processor, an optical character reader, or the like is used for this purpose.

32 is a processing range designation unit that designates a range of partial character strings to be subjected to proofreading among the input Japanese text character strings. 33 is a text storage unit that holds partial character strings to be proofread. An analysis unit 34 performs analysis processing such as morphological analysis, lateral sentence analysis, semantic analysis, and statistical analysis on the Japanese sentences held in the text storage unit 33. Reference numeral 35 denotes an analysis dictionary which stores a large amount of information for the analysis section 34 to analyze Japanese sentences. 36
An error detection unit uses the information output from the analysis unit 34 to detect possible errors in the Japanese text. Errors detected include "wrong usage of terminology", "
Examples include "wrong particles" and "inconsistency in writing style." The error detection unit 36 outputs information specifying the error together with attribute information such as the error type. Reference numeral 37 denotes an error storage section that stores a large amount of error information that is output from the error detection section 36 and is a pair of information specifying an error and its attribute information.

38 is a rearrangement specifying section for specifying rearrangement of the display order of errors. Reference numeral 39 denotes an attribute specifying section for specifying attribute information which is information used as a reference when rearranging. here,
It is assumed that the attribute is the type of error detected. Reference numeral 40 denotes an error sorting section, which sorts a large number of pieces of error information stored in the error storage section 37 according to the attribute values specified by the attribute specifying section 39, and outputs the sorted results.

Reference numeral 41 denotes an error display section which displays the error information outputted from the error sorting section 40 in the order and in a predetermined format. At this time, the display format is changed depending on the attribute information of each error, such as changing the color of the display depending on the type of error.

The operation of the calibration point display device of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained below.

(1) The operator inputs a Japanese text string from the text input section 31. After that, in order to proofread the input text, it tries to find errors in the text and gives instructions to that effect.

(2) Thereafter, the operator uses the processing range designation unit 32 to designate a range of text to be proofread within the entire sentence string.

(3) The text storage unit 33 stores the range-specified Japanese text character string.

(4) The analysis unit 34, while referring to the analysis dictionary 35,
The Japanese text string held in the text storage section 33 is analyzed and the result is output.

(5) The error detection unit 36 inspects the analysis result output from the analysis unit 34 and outputs error information to the error storage unit 37 after detecting a portion that may be incorrect as a Japanese sentence. For example, the sentence shown in FIG. 3(a) is
After the analysis, the error detection unit 36 detects the particle error shown in FIG. . The error storage unit 17 stores the output error information.

(6) The error display section 41 displays error information, which is the content of the error storage section 37, on a display device in order to present it to the operator. For example, all the error information shown in FIG. 3(b) is displayed in the form shown in FIG. 5(a).

(7) Suppose that the operator attempts to rearrange and view the errors already displayed, with the intention of viewing the large number of errors in an organized manner. At that time, the rearrangement instruction section 38 is used to instruct the rearrangement of the displayed error information.

(8) The operator inputs an attribute as a reference for sorting from the attribute specifying section 39. For example, if the operator wants to list errors by error type, the operator inputs the error type as an attribute.

(9) The error sorting unit 40 sorts the contents stored in the error storage unit 37 based on the attribute specified by the attribute specifying unit 39. In this case, all error information is output in the order of its type.

(10) The error display section 41 displays the information output from the error sorting 40 on a display device in order to present it to the operator. For example, all the error information shown in FIG. 3(b) is displayed in the form shown in FIG. 5(b). Figure 5 (b
), errors are grouped together by type of error, such as A and I are errors in particles, TS and WORK are errors in usage terms, and O is inconsistency in writing style.

As described above, in this embodiment, even if there are multiple errors detected and they are of multiple types, the errors that the operator is currently paying attention to and are attempting to proofread are displayed together. The order can be organized and displayed.

This prevents the error that the operator is currently paying attention to and other errors from being displayed together, which prevents the error that the operator is currently paying attention to from being obscured by other errors, and prevents the error that the operator is currently paying attention to from being confused with other errors. The operator will never miss a point. Furthermore, there is no need to perform operations to eliminate errors that are not currently of interest (and the operator's thinking is not significantly interrupted).

In this example, the types of errors detected are ``inconsistency in writing style'', ``errors in usage terms'', and ``errors in particles'', but other types of errors, such as ``terms errors'', are detected. It may be possible to detect errors such as "inconsistency", "errors in verb usage", "grammatical errors", and "errors in orthography". In this embodiment, the error attribute information is the type of error, but it may also be other information such as the severity of the error or position information in the entire sentence string. Further, a plurality of these may be used as attribute information. In this embodiment, the type of error is used as the attribute information that serves as a reference for rearranging errors, but other attribute information such as the severity of the error or position information in the entire text string may be used. In this embodiment, the display color is changed depending on the type of error, but the display may be displayed in other display formats such as changing the display size depending on the attribute information. Furthermore, it goes without saying that display formats do not need to be differentiated based on attributes. In this embodiment, a partial character string in the entire text string is used as the target character string for error detection, but it goes without saying that the entire text string may be used as the target character string.

Effects of the Invention In the calibration point display device of the present invention, even if there are multiple errors detected and they are of multiple types, only the errors required by the operator can be selectively displayed. . Furthermore, even if there are multiple errors detected and they are of multiple types, the order is organized and displayed so that the errors that the operator is currently paying attention to and are attempting to proofread are displayed together. can do. As a result, the error that the operator is currently paying attention to and other errors will not be displayed together, so the error that the operator is currently paying attention to will not be confused with other errors. The operator will not overlook the necessary points.Furthermore,
There is no need to perform operations to eliminate errors other than those currently under consideration (and there is no need to significantly interrupt the operator's thinking.
Its practical effects are great.
