Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The purpose of the present invention is to significantly improve the conversion efficiency of kana and kanji in a Japanese input method that inputs Japanese sentences including kanji in kana and converts them into Japanese sentences including kanji. This relates to a kanji data creation assistance system.

In conventional Kana-Kanji conversion systems, Japanese sentences are input as they are read, and for example, kanji that appear in Japanese sentences are given information that they are kanji.
Add symbols such as shift in and shift out before and after the word, then rely on a calculator to write kanji according to Japanese grammar rules.
It was converted to a sentence containing kana.

For this reason, the Kanji-Kanji conversion file that the device has is enormous because it has to cover all possible cases, and it also has drawbacks such as slow input processing speed and low conversion efficiency.

For this reason, the present inventors previously proposed a simple Japanese input method called a "feature extraction type kanji input method."

This is done by inputting Japanese sentences in kana word by word using a kana keyboard, and by adding character characteristics before and after the word using a pattern keyboard consisting of pattern keys that represent character characteristics. This method converts sentences into sentences containing kana.

By using this method, it was possible to improve the conversion efficiency of kana and kanji, and there was an advantage that the size of the file for conversion could be reduced.

However, even with this method, the conversion rate is not 100%, so some of the input words are homonyms,
Furthermore, the patterns representing the characteristics of kanji may be the same.

At this time, if input operations are performed using only kana keys or pattern keys, the input information does not correspond to a single word, so the processing method in such a case becomes an important issue.

This invention was developed in consideration of the above points, and the words to be input are homophones, and the patterns representing the characteristics of the kanji are also the same. The purpose of this paper is to solve these problems by making the code sent from the terminal correspond to a unique word in all cases.

The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the drawings.

In this specification, kana means hiragana and katakana, and in the case of hiragana, it is written as ``kana'' or [hiragana-
1, and in the case of katakana, it will be expressed as ``kana'' or ``katakana.''

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the system of the present invention.

In this figure, 1 is an input device that can input kana code, pattern code, and additional information, and 2 is a function that can determine whether the input kana code and pattern code data corresponds to a unique word. If the data does not correspond to a unique word/phrase, the operator adds additional information to the control unit 3, which has a function of making the transmitted code consisting of the kana code, pattern code, and additional information correspond to the unique word/phrase; This converter has a Kanji-Kanji conversion file in which all input codes are stored with predetermined characteristics so that they correspond to unique words.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram for explaining the details of the embodiment shown in FIG. 21, terminal side file 22, display device 23
A terminal device 20 and a central processing unit 31 consisting of
, a center 30 consisting of Kanar-Kanji conversion files 32 in which all input codes correspond to unique words.
Consisting of

The details of FIG. 2 will be explained below. Now, as the keyboard input device 10, there is shown in FIG. 3 a kana key board A equipped with a kana key A1, a pattern key B1, an entry key B2, an alphanumeric key B3, a katakana key B4 + a feed key B5, and a pattern key B6. In the case of a keyboard input device having B, the above-mentioned kana keyboard A and pattern keyboard B
``This judgment is valid.

'', the input operation is as follows.

``Konota Hantei Miha day Yukou ■Deal.

” In this example, if you only input 日ゆうこ■,
Effective is a homophone with words such as effective and good, and furthermore, the patterns expressing the characteristics of the kanji are also the same, making it impossible to identify the words.

Therefore, in the system according to the present invention, the terminal side file 22 contains codes and codes that cannot be determined uniquely by inputting only the above example using the kana key A1 of the kana key board A and the pattern key B1 of the pattern key board B. The pattern codes of all words corresponding to the code are recorded, and the terminal-side control unit 21 scans the terminal-side file 22 to detect whether there is a match between the input code and the contents of the terminal-side file 22. do.

At this time, if a word is determined semantically only by input using the kana key A1 and pattern key B1, there is no code that matches the input code in the terminal file 22, and the input code is immediately sent to the center 30. sent to.

In addition, if a word cannot be determined semantically by inputting with the kana key A1 and pattern key B1, the input code
A code matching the code exists in the terminal file 22, and the operator is alerted by a buzzer or the like.

At this time, the display device 23 displays all words that are homonyms and have the same pattern as the input code, and the operator can enter the file number of the target word among those words. Additional information is added by means such as designation, and the word is uniquely determined and sent to the center 30.

However, in this case, since there are only a small number of words that are homophones and also have matching patterns, the capacity of the terminal-side file 22 can be reduced.

Therefore, the display device 23 is not necessarily required.

Further, the function of the terminal-side control unit 21 can be simplified.

If the terminal device 20 has the configuration described above, all the codes sent from the terminal device 20 to the center 30 can be made to correspond to a unique word, and the center 30 can immediately convert them by the central processing unit 31 and the Kanji-Kanji conversion file 32. It is possible to convert input data into sentences containing kanji and kana.

Therefore, if the above-mentioned kanji data creation assistance system is used, the capacity of the converter 3 shown in FIG. 1 can be significantly reduced.
It is also possible to have the converter 3 within the communication network.

It goes without saying that the kana in the above embodiments may also be kana.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the functions that were concentrated in one computer in the conventional Kanji-Kanji conversion system are now integrated into the operation section side, which can send out a code corresponding to a unique word. Since all words can be distributed between the main unit and the main unit, which have a kana-to-kanji conversion file that corresponds to a unique code, the efficiency of kana-to-kanji conversion can be improved. file size can be reduced.

Furthermore, since a large-capacity kana-to-kanji conversion file can be shared by many terminals, it has the advantage of improving economic efficiency.
