1 is a diagram illustrating a structure of an electronic terminal device capable of calculating a read prediction time for a document according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, an electronic terminal device 110 capable of calculating a reading prediction time for a document according to the present invention includes a document file storage unit 111, a reading time table holding unit 112, and a count counting unit 113. , A required time calculation unit 114, a summation time calculation unit 115, and a read prediction time output unit 116.

The document file storage unit 111 stores files for a plurality of documents.

The read time table holding unit 112 is a first unit of read time that is predetermined as it takes to read one character, a second unit of read time that is predetermined as it takes to read one image, and that it takes to read one figure in advance. A read time table in which a predetermined third unit read time and a predetermined fourth unit read time as required to read one table are recorded is stored and maintained.

In relation to this, information may be recorded in the read time table as shown in Table 1 below.

Type of object Unit reading time letter 0.1 seconds per character image 0.4 seconds per image Figure 0.2 seconds per shape table 1 second per table

Here, the unit reading time means a time set as necessary for the user to read one character, image, figure, or table, and each unit reading time may be arbitrarily set by the user, or the user reads a predetermined test document. It may be calculated in consideration of the user's reading time for the test document.

In relation to this, by allowing the user to read a predetermined test document, the electronic terminal device 110 capable of calculating the reading prediction time for the document according to the present invention is a configuration for calculating the reading time for each unit. A measurement unit 125, a partial operation unit 126, a unit read time determination unit 127, and a time recording unit 128 may be further included.

The actual reading time measurement unit 125 randomly extracts a file for a test document from the document file storage unit 111, and outputs the test document through a display, so that the user actually reads the test document. Measure the time required.

The partial operation unit 126 divides the actual reading time of the user for the test document according to a predetermined split ratio corresponding to letters, images, figures, and tables, and divides the first actual reading time corresponding to the letter, and the image The corresponding second actual read required time, the third actual read required time corresponding to the figure, and the fourth actual required read time corresponding to the table are calculated.

For example, when the user actually reads the test document, the actual reading time measured is '100 minutes', and the predetermined split ratio is'text: image: figure: table = 7:1:1:1' In the case of, the partial operation unit 126 divides the first actual read time by dividing it by a ratio of '7:1:1:1' to '100 minutes' and divides the first actual read time to '70 minutes' and the second actual read time to '10 minutes', the third actual reading time may be calculated as '10 minutes', and the fourth actual reading time may be calculated as '10 minutes'.

The unit read time determination unit 127 divides the first actual read time by the number of characters inserted in the test document to determine the first unit read time, and determines the second actual read time to the test. The second unit reading time is determined by dividing by the number of images inserted in the document for use, and the third unit reading time is determined by dividing the required third actual reading time by the number of figures inserted in the test document And, the fourth unit reading time is determined by dividing the required fourth actual reading time by the number of tables inserted in the test document.

For example, as in the example described above, the first actual read time is '70 minutes', the second actual read time is '10 minutes', the third actual read time is '10 minutes', and the fourth It is assumed that the actual reading time is calculated as '10 minutes', and the number of characters inserted in the test document is '100', the number of images is '10', the number of figures is '20', and When the number is '5', the unit read time determination unit 127 sets the first unit read time to '0.7 seconds', the second unit read time to '1 second', and the third unit read time '0.5 seconds', the fourth unit reading time may be determined as '2 seconds'.

In this way, when the first unit read time, the second unit read time, the third unit read time, and the fourth unit read time are determined, the time recording unit 128 determines the first unit read time and the second unit Construction of the read time table can be completed by recording the read time, the third unit read time, and the fourth unit read time in the read time table.

In this way, when a command for calculating a read prediction time for the first document is applied by a user among the plurality of documents in the presence of the read time table, the number counting unit 113 is transmitted from the document file storage unit 111 The file for the first document is read, and the number of characters, images, figures, and tables inserted in the first document are counted.

The time required calculation unit 114 calculates a first time required to read by multiplying the number of characters inserted in the first document by the first unit read time, and calculates the first time required to read the number of images inserted into the first document. The second reading time is calculated by multiplying by 2 unit reading time, and the third reading time is calculated by multiplying the number of figures inserted in the first document by the third unit reading time, and then inserted into the first document. A fourth read time is calculated by multiplying the number of tables by the fourth unit read time.

The summation time calculation unit 115 calculates the summation read time by summing the first read time, the second read time, the third read time, and the fourth read time.

Further, the read prediction time output unit 116 outputs the combined read time as information on the read prediction time for the first document through a display.

Through this, the user can predict the time required to read the first document in advance, so that a time plan for reading the first document can be appropriately established.

At this time, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the electronic terminal device 110 capable of calculating a reading prediction time for a document includes a category table maintaining unit 117, a weight table maintaining unit 118, and a weight extracting unit 119. And it may further include a time correction unit 120.

The category table holding unit 117 stores the file names of the plurality of documents and information on a category previously designated as corresponding to each of the plurality of documents among a plurality of categories that are pre-designated to be distinguishable according to the subject of the document. It stores and maintains the category table recorded in correspondence with each other.

Here, the category refers to a kind of subject area of the document that is pre-designated as being distinguishable according to the subject of the document. If the document deals with a topic related to science, the category of the document will be'science', and the document refers to the subject related to art. If it was covered, the category of the document would be'Art'.

In this case, the user may construct the category table by pre-categorizing each of the plurality of documents by category to which each document belongs.

Relatedly, information may be recorded in the category table as shown in Table 2 below.

File name for multiple documents Corresponding category File name 1 Science File name 2 Art File name 3 Science File name 4 preview ... ...

The weight table holding unit 118 stores and maintains a weight table in which different read time correction weights, which are predetermined as corresponding to each category, are corresponding to each of the plurality of categories and recorded.

For example, information may be recorded in the weight table as shown in Table 3 below.

Multiple categories Read time correction weight Science 2 Art 1.3 preview 1.2 movie One ... ...

The reading time correction weight recorded in the weight table as shown in Table 3 above is also a value that can be set in advance by the user, and the reading time is reduced in consideration of the level of knowledge required to read the document corresponding to each category or the difficulty of each category. A high read time correction weight may be assigned to a category requiring a relatively large amount of time, and a low read time correction weight may be assigned to a category requiring a relatively low read time.

When the calculation of the total time required for reading is completed, the weight extraction unit 119 extracts information on the first category recorded in correspondence with the file name for the first document from the category table, and extracts the information on the first category from the weight table. A correction weight for a first read time required corresponding to the first category is extracted.

For example, if the file name for the first document is'file name 1', the weight extracting unit 119 uses information on the first category recorded in correspondence with'file name 1'from the category table shown in Table 2 above. 'Science' may be extracted, and '2' may be extracted from the weight table as shown in Table 3 as the first read time correction weight recorded in correspondence with the'science'.

When the first time required to read correction weight is extracted, the time correction unit 120 performs correction on the total time required to read by multiplying the first time required to read by the first time required to read correction weight.

For example, if the total read time calculated by the sum time calculator 115 is '80 minutes', the time correction unit 120 adds the first read time correction weight to the sum read time '80 minutes'. It can be corrected to '160 minutes' by multiplying '2'.

At this time, when the correction for the total time required for reading is completed, the read prediction time output unit 116 outputs the corrected total time for reading as information on the predicted read time for the first document through the display. I can.

That is, the electronic terminal device 110 according to the present invention may calculate by appropriately adjusting a reading prediction time required for a user to read a document in consideration of a reading difficulty according to a document category.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the electronic terminal device 110 capable of calculating a read prediction time for a document includes a comparison vector generation unit 121, a vector similarity calculation unit 122, a read request time check unit 123, and It may further include a speed adjustment suggestion message output unit 124.

After the information on the predicted reading time for the first document is output through the display, the comparison vector generator 121 displays the number of characters, images, figures, and tables inserted in the first document. A comparison vector containing the number as a component is created.

For example, when the number of characters inserted in the first document is '1,000', the number of images is '10', the number of figures is '15', and the number of tables is '8', the comparison vector The generation unit 121 may generate a comparison vector called'(1,000, 10, 15, 8)' each including the number of characters, the number of images, the number of figures, and the number of tables as components.

The vector similarity calculation unit 122 stores a reference vector table in which a reference vector for each of a plurality of reference documents and a read request time set in advance for each of the plurality of reference documents correspond to each other and are stored. By connecting to, a vector similarity degree between the reference vector and the comparison vector for each of the plurality of reference documents recorded in the reference vector table is calculated.

In connection, the document management server 100 refers to a server storing the reference vector table. At this time, the read request time is the minimum required time required for reading while sufficiently understanding the contents of each document when it is assumed that general users read each of the plurality of reference documents arbitrarily designated by the developer. A read request time for each of the plurality of reference documents may be set through a preliminary survey such as performing a survey.

In addition, the reference vector refers to a vector in which the number of characters, the number of images, the number of figures, and the number of tables inserted in each reference document are included as components, and when'reference document 1'exists, If the number of characters inserted in'Reference Document 1'is '2,000', the number of images is '20', the number of figures is '15', and the number of tables is '30', The reference vector for 1'may be expressed as'(2,000, 20, 15, 30)'.

In consideration of this point, the reference vector table stored in the document management server 100 may be configured as shown in Table 4 below.

Multiple reference documents Reference vector Read request time Reference Document 1 (2,000, 20, 15, 30) 200 minutes Reference Document 2 (3,000, 40, 30, 10) 300 minutes Reference Document 3 (1,500, 10, 5, 6) 100 minutes ... ... ...

In this case, the vector similarity calculation unit 122 may calculate a vector similarity between the reference vector and the comparison vector for each of the plurality of reference documents recorded in the reference vector table.

In this case, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the vector similarity calculation unit 122 is an reciprocal of the Euclidean distance between the reference vector and the comparison vector for each of the plurality of reference documents recorded in the reference vector table. May be calculated as the vector similarity between the reference vector and the comparison vector for each of the plurality of reference documents recorded in the reference vector table.

In relation to this, the vector similarity calculating unit 122 may calculate the vector similarity according to the calculation of Equation 1 below.

Here, D is the Euclidean distance between two vectors, and S is the vector similarity between the two vectors.

In this case, the Euclidean distance D between the two vectors may be calculated according to Equation 2 below.

Here, D is the Euclidean distance, and p _i and q _i are the i-th components included in the two vectors. As the Euclidean distance between the two vectors is smaller, the two vectors can be regarded as similar vectors, and as the Euclidean distance between the two vectors is larger, the two vectors can be regarded as dissimilar vectors.

As can be seen from Equation 1, as the Euclidean distance between two vectors increases, the vector similarity decreases, and as the Euclidean distance between two vectors decreases, the vector similarity increases, so that the vector similarity calculator 122 A vector similarity between the reference vector and the comparison vector for each of the plurality of reference documents recorded in the reference vector table may be calculated according to the calculation in Equation 1 above.

The read request time check unit 123 checks the read request time for the first reference document recorded in correspondence with the first reference vector whose vector similarity is calculated to the maximum from the reference vector table.

In addition, the speed adjustment suggestion message output unit 124 calculates a time difference between a read request time for the first reference document and a read prediction time for the first document, and an absolute value of the calculated time difference is a predetermined reference value. If it is determined that the amount is exceeded, a speed control proposal message suggesting adjusting the reading speed of the first document is output through the display.

Relatedly, when there is a reference vector table as shown in Table 4, the first reference document is referred to as'reference document 1', and accordingly, for the'reference document 1'checked through the read request time check unit 123 When the read request time is referred to as '200 minutes' and the predicted reading time for the first document is '150 minutes', the speed control proposal message output unit 124 is the time difference between '200 minutes' and '150 minutes'. '50 minutes' can be calculated, and if the predetermined reference value is '30 minutes', since the absolute value of the time difference exceeds the reference value, the speed adjustment suggestion message output unit 124 is 1 A speed control suggestion message that suggests adjusting the reading speed of a document can be output.

At this time, when the time difference has a negative value, the speed adjustment suggestion message output unit 124 displays a message suggesting that the reading speed for the first document is rapidly adjusted because the read request time is smaller than the read prediction time. When the time difference has a positive value, a message suggesting that the read speed for the first document is adjusted to be slow can be output because the read request time is greater than the read prediction time.

That is, the electronic terminal device 110 according to the present invention compares a read request time for a reference document having a number similar to the number of characters, images, figures, and tables included in a specific document and a read prediction time of the specific document. Thus, if it is confirmed that the two times are too large, a speed control suggestion message instructing to adjust the reading speed of the document is output, thereby inducing the user to read the document at an appropriate speed.

In step S230, when a user among the plurality of documents applies a command to calculate a read prediction time for a first document, a file for the first document is read from the document file storage unit to be stored in the first document. Count the number of inserted characters, the number of images, the number of figures, and the number of tables.

In step S240, a first read time is calculated by multiplying the number of characters inserted in the first document by the first unit reading time, and the second unit is the number of images inserted in the first document. A second time required for reading is calculated by multiplying the read time, and a third time required for reading is calculated by multiplying the number of figures inserted in the first document by the third unit read time, and A fourth read time is calculated by multiplying the number of tables by the fourth unit read time.

In step S250, the total required read time is calculated by summing the first time required for reading, the second time required for reading, the third time required for reading, and the fourth time required for reading.

In step S260, the total read time is output as information on the read prediction time for the first document through a display.

At this time, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a method of operating an electronic terminal device capable of calculating a reading prediction time for a document is a plurality of pre-designated files that can be distinguished according to the file names of the plurality of documents and the subject of the document.

Storing and maintaining a weight table in which different read time correction weights are corresponding and recorded, and when the calculation of the summed read time is completed, the file name for the first document is recorded from the category table. Extracting information on a first category, extracting a first read time correction weight recorded in correspondence with the first category from the weight table, and when the first read time correction weight is extracted, the summation It may further include the step of performing correction for the total read time by multiplying the first read time correction weight with respect to the read time.

At this time, in step S260, when the correction for the total time required for reading is completed, the corrected time for total read time may be output through the display as information on the predicted time for reading for the first document.

Accessing a document management server in which a reference vector table is stored, and calculating a vector similarity between the reference vector and the comparison vector for each of the plurality of reference documents recorded in the reference vector table, from the reference vector table. Checking a read request time for a first reference document recorded in correspondence with a first reference vector with a vector similarity calculated to a maximum, and a read request time for the first reference document and a read prediction for the first document Calculates a time difference between times, and when it is determined that the absolute value of the calculated time difference exceeds a predetermined reference value, outputs a speed control suggestion message proposing to adjust the reading speed of the first document through the display. It may further include steps.
