A conceptual network generating system that generates a conceptual network showing conceptual relations between words, the conceptual network generating system including: a first searching unit that searches a knowledge source storing search sentences; a first generating unit that analyzes the retrieved first search result sentence; a holding unit that stores the generated first structure information in a memory unit; a second searching unit that searches the knowledge source; a second generating unit that analyzes the retrieved second search result sentence; a calculating unit that calculates similarity between the generated second structure information and the stored first structure information; and a setting unit that generates conceptual network information.

A question answering system includes a question-sentence analysis unit, a search unit, an answer-candidate extraction unit, a check-expression generation unit, a check-expression search unit and an answer-candidate correction unit. The question-sentence analysis unit extracts a keyword applied to a search process from an input question sentence. The search unit executes the search process with using the extracted keyword. The answer-candidate extraction unit extracts answer candidates for the input question sentence based on a search result. The check-expression generation unit analyzes the input question sentence to generate a check expression concatenating an analysis result and the extracted answer candidates. The check-expression search unit executes a search process based on the generated check expression. The answer-candidate correction unit selects an output answer to the input question from among answer the candidates based on a search result.

A question answering system includes a similar-question generation unit, a first search unit, a second search unit, and an answer selection unit. The similar-question generation unit selects a feature word from an input question to generate a transformational question in which the feature word is replaced with another word. The first search unit executes a first search process based on the transformational question. The second search unit selects a word included in a first search result acquired as an extension word and executes a second search process with using the selected extension word. The answer selection unit analyzes a correspondence relation among extension words included in a second search result, determines the feature word and a constructive part of an answer equivalent word in the second search result based on an analysis result, and selects a word determined to be an answer.

According to an aspect of the present invention, a language processing device has a text input section and an anaphora analysis section. The text input section acquires text data. The anaphora analysis section analyzes whether a correct anaphora relation is included in the text data acquired by the text input section. The correct anaphora relation has an anaphor and an antecedent corresponding to the anaphor.

A question answering system includes a question input unit, a search unit, an answer candidate extraction unit, an answer candidate inspection unit and an answer output unit. The search unit executes search processing based on an input question. The answer candidate extraction unit extracts an initial answer candidate based on a result of the search processing. The answer candidate inspection unit inspects the initial answer candidate. The answer candidate inspection unit executes search processing with using a query including the initial answer candidate. The answer candidate inspection unit determines whether each word of a sentence obtained as a result of the search processing has a similar lexical meaning to that of each word of the input question. The answer candidate inspection unit selects an initial answer candidate contained in a query determined to have the similar lexical meaning, as a secondary answer candidate.

A question answering system includes a question dividing unit, a question answering unit, and an answer determination unit. The question dividing unit applies a predetermined question dividing rule to an input question, to divide the input question into sub-questions. The question answering unit acquires answer candidates corresponding to the sub-questions generated by the question dividing unit, together with certainty values serving as reliability indexes. The answer determination unit selects an answer to the input question from among the answer candidates acquired by the question answering unit.

In the invention, words in f-structure are represented as illustrations that can be understood by any persons regardless of what languages they use, whereby it is made possible to make the f-structure completely language-independent representation. Accordingly, two translation systems of a translation system from one language L into f-structure using illustration representation and a translation system from f-structure using illustration representation into language L are simply constructed, whereby communication support among persons using every language can be provided.

In the learning apparatus, a memory stores a dictionary in an updatable manner, and an inputting means inputs data when an instruction is input by a user. An outputting part processes the data inputted through the inputting part by using the dictionary stored in the memory, and outputs the result of the processing. An identifier receiver obtains an identifier of the user or a group to which the user belongs. An updating means updates the dictionary only when the identifier obtained by the identifier receiver is pre-registered in the memory.
