摘要:
A document storage and retrieval system is provided with means for storing a document body in the form of image, means for storing text information in the form of a character code string for retrieval, means for executing a retrieval with reference to the text information, and means for displaying a document image relating thereto on a retrieval terminal according to the retrieval result. Such a form of the system is available for retrieving the full contents of a document and also for displaying the document body printed in a format easy to read straight in the form of image. Accordingly, users are capable of retrieving documents with arbitrary words and also capable of reading even such a document as is complicated to include mathematical expressions and charts through a terminal in the form of image, the same as on paper. Further, the invention provides a system wherein the text information for retrieval is extracted automatically from the document image through character recognition. Since a precision of the character recognition has not been satisfactory hitherto, a visual retrieval and correction have been carried out without fail by operators. However, there is no necessity for the operators to attend therefor according to the invention. Thus, the text information for retrieval can be generated at the cost of practical time and money even in case of volumes of documents.

A method and a machine for generating a dictionary of address phrase expressions. One embodiment of the invention includes an apparatus for generating a dictionary of target phrases that includes an input interface for receiving as its input a first address phrase included in a list of address phrase expressions, a memory for storing a dictionary of address phrase variants, including rules for generating variants of address phrase expressions, and a processing device for generating variants of address phrases which generates a second address phrase which is different in expression from the first address phrase to output the second address phrase to a storage device holding the dictionary of target phrases, based on the input first address phrase, and the knowledge of rules about variants included in the dictionary of address phrase variants.
摘要:
A document analysis system for determining format information of a document, wherein frames and a relationship of the frames are extracted from an image of an unmarked sample document, characters in a frame of the document are recognized, and an image structure is analyzed based on the frame and the recognized characters.

A digitized multilevel signal is encoded on the basis of unit combinations each including a run-length bit field indicative of run-length at each of the signal levels and a single continuation bit indicative of transition of the signal levels. The encoding is so modified that a virtual run of zero length is inserted when the transition of the signal levels at adjacent sampling points departs from a predetermined order. Polarity of the continuation bit is inverted upon every transition of the signal level.

A sign language telephone device is offered which enables an aurally handicapped person who uses the sign language to converse with a normal person at a distant place who does not know the sign language. The sign language telephone device is placed on the side of the aurally handicapped person, and hand gestures of the sign language inputted from a sign language input means are recognized as the sign language, and the recognized sign language is translated to Japanese. The translated Japanese word train is converted to synthesized voices and it is transmitted to a videophone on the side of a normal person. The voices from the videophone are recognized, and the recognized Japanese is translated to the sign language to generate sign language animations and they are displayed on the screen of a TV set on the side of the aurally handicapped person. According to the present invention, it is made possible for an aurally handicapped person to have conversation easily with a normal person at a distant place who does not know the sign language through an existing network.
摘要:
An address reader method and apparatus for recognizing a receiver address on a surface of mail. In the invention an image of the surface of the mail is input and segmented into at least one character string candidate. At least one address area candidate is extracted from the image based upon the segmented character string candidate. One of the address area candidates extracted from the image is selected as a receiver address of the mail by analyzing each of the address area candidates based on predetermined position information indicating a usual position of a receiver address area, character direction information indicating a character direction of a character string appropriate for the predetermined position information, and key character string information indicating a character string most likely to exist in a receiver address. Characters in character strings of the selected address area candidate are recognized as a receiver address which is used to sort the mail.
