Abstract

PURPOSE:To change the order of display for specific job, document and personal, by making the coefficient of study variable in a Japanese word processor. CONSTITUTION:When the reading of a Kanji(Chinese character) is inputted, the Kanji corresponding to a display device 4 is extracted and displayed, and the coefficient of study N is designated. When the display of the display device 4 is switched and the objective character is found out, confirming character information and homonyms in a dictionary 3 are transmitted to a learning circuit 5. Since the coefficient of study N is transmitted to the learning circuit 5 in this case, an operation is performed based on the coefficient of study N to decide the number to change the order of display. The order of Kanji of the dictionary 3 is replaced based on the value obtained with the operation from the confirming character information and the coefficient of study N, and the updated dictionary information is returned to the dictionary 3. Thus, the specific Japanese word processor is realized by making the coefficient of study N variable.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a Japanese language processing method, and in particular improves a so-called learning function that changes the display order of homophones (hereinafter referred to as "homonyms") when they occur each time they are used. This is related to the Japanese language processing method.

Conventionally, in the kana-kanji conversion input of Japanese language processing equipment,
When homophones occur, they are displayed on the display device and the desired character or character string (hereinafter referred to as
It's just one character. ) is selected. As for the selected characters, the learning function is usually provided, which is a function of changing the display order of the selected characters the next time they are displayed.

The following learning functions are conventionally used.

α) A method of having usage frequency information, incrementing this usage frequency information by 1 each time it is used, and displaying the homophone in the usage frequency information category.

■Among homophones, the last used character is displayed first.

■) Move up the order of the used characters by one, and from next time,
A method of displaying items in the highest order.

Of these, method α) is superior in that characters with high usage rates are displayed at the top, but when usage trends change, it takes time to adapt to the new usage trends, which means that the learning effect is slow. There is a problem. Another problem is that an area is required to store the usage frequency information. Further, although the method e) provides a fast response, there is a problem that the order is not stable. The method (3) has an intermediate learning effect between the methods α) and (2).

The above methods 0) to (3) are all based on the comprehensive results of various inputs made by many different operators, and there is no mechanism for intentionally varying the learning effect depending on the user. I haven't. In other words, the sensitivity of the learning effect is constant and cannot be changed.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to change the learning effect of a Japanese language processing device so that the device itself can be used for the characters used by a particular operator (group). It is an object of the present invention to provide a Japanese language processing method that makes it possible to easily find words or display them in a display order that suits a particular purpose.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be explained using examples.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an overview of a Japanese language processing device that is an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is an input device;
2 is a processing device, the convex part is an 8F letter, 4 is a display device, 5 is a learning circuit, and 6 is a storage area for learning coefficients, which will be described later.

The input table 91 is the reading kana (hereinafter referred to as “reading”),
It has a function to input control information and learning coefficients. The dictionary 3 stores kanji or kanji groups (hereinafter simply referred to as "kanji") corresponding to the readings. The learning circuit 5 has a function of changing the display order of selected kanji characters based on a given learning coefficient.

The learning coefficient storage area 6 has a function of storing a learning coefficient N as will be explained below.

The learning coefficient N is, for example, a coefficient determined as follows.

(1) When N = O In this case, it corresponds to no learning, and no change is made to the display order of homophones.

B) When N=1 In this case, the display order of homophones is changed so that the display order of the selected kanji is moved up by one.

(3) When N=3 In this case, the display order of homophones is changed so that the display order of the selected kanji is moved up three places.

(4) When N=■ In this case, the display order of homophones is changed so that the selected kanji is displayed first next time.

Note that the processing device 2 uses the dictionary 3 to extract kanji corresponding to the reading input from the input device 1, and displays the kanji on the display device 4.
It has a function to display on the screen.

The operation of the apparatus of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained below using a specific example.

Now, let's assume that you input the reading ``Shou'' in Kanji reading. At this time, the value of the learning coefficient N is also specified and input from the human-powered device 1. Assume that the candidates in the dictionary δ corresponding to the word "sho" are as shown in FIG. These kanji are displayed one by one or in groups of a certain number on a display device. Suppose that what the operator needs is the character ``Sei''.

When the display on the display device is switched using the control key and the desired character for ``sheng'' is found, the corresponding kanji character ``sheng'' is displayed.
Confirm. When the kanji is determined, the determined character information and the homophone kanji in the dictionary are sent to the learning circuit 5. Also, at this time, the learning coefficient N stored therein is sent from the learning coefficient storage area 6 to the learning circuit 6.

The learning circuit 5 performs a certain calculation based on the sent learning coefficient N to determine the number by which the display order should be changed.

Then, the order of the kanji characters in the dictionary 3 is replaced based on the determined character information and the value calculated from the learning coefficient N, and the updated dictionary information is returned to the dictionary 3.

To simplify the explanation, the operation f in the learning circuit 5 is
If (to) is f (to) miN, when N=0, f = 0, which means no learning as described above, so the learning circuit 5 does not perform any processing and next time The display order remains unchanged as shown in FIG. 2. When N=1, f(N)=1,
Since this means moving up the display order of the character "Sei" by one place, the learning circuit 5 performs the process described below and changes the next display order as shown in FIG. When N = 3, f(N) = 3, and the order of display of the characters [Sho-1] is changed to 3.
Since this means a transfer, the next display order is changed as shown in FIG. 4 by the same process as before. Also,
If N is made close to flash, the so-called F
It becomes the IFO method.

FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of the entire process described above, and FIG.
The figure shows a detailed flowchart of the learning process. In FIG. 7, K indicates that the selected character is in the first position of the candidates.

In the above example, in order to make the explanation into a section, :f (
N) E: N However, f(N) is not limited to this, for example, however, earth is the order of the selected kanji in the candidates, and in the case of the character ``Jo'' mentioned above, 1= It becomes 8.

The calculation may include not only the learning coefficient N but also the order of the kanji to be selected.

If the value of the learning coefficient N is set to be large when creating a specific document, for example, when creating a guide, and set to be small when creating a general office document, the device can be used in the guidance direction &'' It can be done. Also, with emphasis on usage trends by autopsy operators, the learning coefficient is made thicker only for specific operators (groups), and smaller for other operators (groups).
In the extreme case N=O), other operators (
It is also possible to realize a device that is not affected by the use of

In the above embodiment, an example was shown in which a single Kanji character was selected, but the same thing is possible for words made up of a plurality of Kanji characters. FIG. 8 shows the case where the word with the pronunciation "jisei" is set to N-2. The same applies to the order of the total number of candidates in the case of bunsetsu cutting.

@9 Figure shows an example of the reading “Hitoke” (N=1).

As described above, according to the present invention, since the learning effect based on the display order of converted characters is made variable,
For specific tasks, documents, or specific individuals (-1 Japan d7)
One advantage of this method is that it is possible to realize a single processing device and prevent the learning results from being disturbed by others.
