摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a character recognition apparatus for inferring the entire character string solely from a user-input handwritten keyword and displaying the inferred result as a candidate character string. The apparatus of the invention comprises: a word dictionary a6 storing word identification information and hierarchy information for layering a plurality of words into a hierarchy and for recognizing each of the words within the hierarchy; a character transition probability table a4 storing probabilities of transitions from any one character to another, and those pieces of the word identification information which correspond to combinations of characters resulting from the transitions; and an optimization unit for using the character transition probability table a4 in optimizing candidate character strings obtained by a recognition unit. The word dictionary a6 is searched for a word defined by the word identification information which corresponds to the optimized candidate character string, whereby the searched word is retrieved which applies to the hierarchy information and which has yet to be input.

A system using an input integrated flat panel display (5) of an integrated structure, having an input device (3, 13) for inputting through handwriting characters, graphics, or points and a flat panel display (2,12) laid upon the input device for displaying in accordance with an input point data input through handwriting. The frame memory (23) of a large screen having a display screen larger than that of the flat panel display is arranged to be read out through the input device of the input integrated flat panel display. In addition, the read-out contents of the large screen frame memory is arranged to be copied onto the flat display of the input integrated flat panel display. The input integrated flat panel display system can improve the man-machine performance while the amateur end user performs document processings, graphic processings and the like.

Coordinates of a handwritten pattern drawn on a tablet (100) are sequentially sampled by a pattern recognition unit (200) to prepare pattern coordinate data. Based on an area encircled by segments created by the sampled pattern coordinate data of one stroke and a line connecting a start point and an end point of the one-stroke coordinate data, the sampled pattern coordinate data of the one stroke is converted to straight line and/or curved line segments. The converted segments are quantized and normalized. The segments of the normalized input pattern are rearranged so that the input pattern is drawn in a predetermined sequence. Differences between direction angles for the rearranged segments are calculated. Those differences are compared with differences of the direction angles of the dictionary patterns read from a memory (300) to calculate a difference therebetween. The matching of the input pattern and the dictionary pattern is determined in accordance with the difference, If the matching fails, the first or last inputted segment of the input pattern is deleted or the sampled pattern coodinate data of the next stroke are added, to continue the recognition process.

In order to provide a speech input system for having access from a mobile terminal to a network through speech, and receiving a service from a provider for providing information, the speech input system comprises speech input/output mean, and an access status display mean, a speech portal server (50) provided with a speech recognizing mean to recognize it as a text, a command converting mean for checking the recognized text with a command text dictionary, and separating it into a command text and an object text, and a conversation control mean for having an access to, and receiving a service from a provider which provides different information based on the separated texts, and providing the speech input terminal with the service, and a provider (60) for searching information based on the command text and the object text received from the speech portal server, and serves the speech portal server with a search result.
摘要:
A plurality of handheld or "mobile" information terminals (10a - 10n) send forth position information detected periodically toward an information delivery server (50); the information delivery server (50) comprises a position management unit (50-4) for generating image data used to compose for visual display certain users belonging to the same group onto the same land map image screen, a situation/history management unit (50-7) for arithmetically processing the user's distribution in units of target facilities and then generating information indicative of such distribution, an image management unit (50-9) for storing therein more than one photographic image as sent from mobile information terminal(s) in units of users or alternatively in units of groups and then transferring the stored image toward a target or "destination" mobile information terminal, and a route search management unit (50-6) for searching for a recommendable route in view of the degree of congestion and/or popularity as calculated at the situation/history management unit (50-7). In a multimedia information delivery system, perform provision of information services by recognizing the position of a user and then utilizing the user position thus recognized.

The present invention is characterized in that the car navigation system for, at the time of desiring map information, traffic information, and other required information in a car, inquiring an information distribution service provider (106) for distributing the information is composed of a moving terminal device (100) which can be operated to input and output voice, a communication device (111), an audio interactive server (105) which can input and output voice and data, is connected to an external device and the Internet (107) on the basis of audio interactions by the voice recognition process and voice synthesis process, and executes information transfer, and one or a plurality of information distribution service providers (106) connected to the Internet (107) for distributing information such as map information and traffic information.
摘要:
Disclosed is a communication system usable as a radio facsimile system that can transmit/receive information using the dedicated protocol independently of the radio wave status, as well as improve the transmission efficiency by restarting the subject communication even when it is interrupted and restarting the communication at the data just after the normally transmitted data. A communication controller (2) relays the communications between radio facsimile (1-1,...,1-n) and general facsimile (3-1,...,3-m), and changes protocols appropriately to the subject communication to reduce interruptions. In addition, when the subject communication is interrupted, the communication system can cope with it to continue the communication with means for re-dialing automatically at fixed intervals, means for adding the communication discrimination information for each communication, and means for notifying the communication discrimination information and the position information of the received data just before the interruption.
