Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to technical publications, particularly aviation product technical publications, and systems and methods for generating and / or publishing multilingual aviation product technical publications. Background Technology

[0002] Technical publications for a product are crucial for its safe operation. Taking aviation products as an example, technical publications are essential for ensuring their safe operation. Therefore, the quality of aviation products directly impacts the regulatory authority's airworthiness certification and approval, as well as user services.

[0003] Currently, in order to enter a country's market and meet its regulatory requirements, domestic and international aerospace product manufacturers generally need to use the official language of that country to prepare their aerospace product technical publications. This necessitates that aerospace product manufacturers use multiple languages ​​to generate their aerospace product technical publications and ensure consistency between the different language versions of these publications.

[0004] However, the current lack of systems and methods for generating and publishing multilingual aviation product technical publications leads to delays in the simultaneous release / modification of different language versions of these publications, and also compromises consistency between them. This not only affects the operation and maintenance of aviation product user terminals but can also cause errors or even trigger aviation accidents.

[0005] This disclosure addresses, but is not limited to, the many factors mentioned above. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To this end, this disclosure proposes a system and method for generating and / or publishing multilingual technical publications, thereby enabling the creation, unified management, status monitoring, change control, interactive browsing, and delivery of multilingual data modules for technical publications. This allows for the simultaneous generation, modification, and publication of multilingual data modules while ensuring the consistency of content in technical publications in different languages ​​(e.g., technical publications for aerospace products).

[0007] According to a first aspect of this disclosure, a method for generating multilingual technical publications is provided. The method includes: obtaining a technical publication structure tree in a first language, where the first language is any one of the multiple languages, the structure tree including chapter directory information of the technical publication; obtaining pre-text materials for a manual in the first language, as well as rules for generating the pre-text materials, mapping relationships and translation relationships between entities in the first language and entities in other languages, where the other languages ​​are one or more languages ​​different from the first language in the multiple languages, and the entities at least include chapter directory information, data module type information, and pre-text materials for the technical publication; and creating data modules and entities, the data modules including those specific to each language in the multiple languages. The system includes: a content container; filling the content in the first language into the content container corresponding to the first language in the data module; generating the pre-text material content of the manual in the first language according to the pre-text material generation rules; filling the content of other languages ​​into the content container corresponding to the corresponding language in the data module according to the mapping relationship and translation relationship between entities in the first language and entities in other languages; generating the pre-text material content of the manual in the corresponding language; checking whether the content parts of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content parts of the other languages; and, if consistent, automatically generating the multilingual technical publication according to the technical publication structure tree, the data module, and the pre-text material content of the manual.

[0008] According to one aspect of this disclosure, the technical publication is an aviation product technical publication.

[0009] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the appropriate granularity is the natural paragraphs of the content of the technical publication.

[0010] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method further includes: when the content of any language in the multilingual system in the data module is modified, automatically checking whether the content of other languages ​​in the multilingual system besides that language has also been modified.

[0011] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method further includes: notifying the user or preventing the generation of the multilingual technical publication if the content of any language other than the language in the multilingual publication has not been modified.

[0012] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method further includes: retaining unmodified content portions in any language other than the language in the multilingual technical publication when the multilingual technical publication is generated.

[0013] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the identifier includes an identifier and a numerical code for the corresponding language, and detecting whether the content portions of the first language are consistent with the corresponding content portions of the other language includes detecting whether the numerical codes of the identifiers for the same content portion in different languages ​​are the same.

[0014] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method further includes: receiving a language selection from a user before generating the multilingual technical publication; and generating a technical publication in the corresponding language based on the language selected by the user.

[0015] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method also includes publishing the technical publication in the corresponding language according to a pre-set style after it has been generated.

[0016] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method also includes uploading the published technical publications to an interactive electronic technical manual browsing system, so that users can select to browse technical publications in the desired language as needed.

[0017] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the pre-text materials of the manual in the first language, the rules for generating the pre-text materials, the mapping relationships and translation relationships between entities in the first language and entities in other languages ​​are obtained from a public source database system.

[0018] According to another aspect of this disclosure, the method further includes: assigning corresponding identifiers to portions of the content of each language in the multilingual system at an appropriate granularity; and checking whether the portions of the content of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding portions of the content of the other languages ​​by automatically comparing the identifiers.

[0019] According to a second aspect of this disclosure, a system for generating multilingual technical publications is provided, wherein the multilinguality includes at least two different languages. The system includes: an acquirer for acquiring specifications of various parts of the technical publication, the acquirer being configured to: acquire a technical publication structure tree in a first language defined according to a Standard Coding System (SNS), the technical publication structure tree including chapter list information of the technical publication, the first language being any of the multilingualities; acquire pre-text materials of the manual in the first language and pre-text material content generation rules defined in a public source database system; and acquire mapping relationships and translation relationships between entities in the first language and entities in other languages ​​defined in the public source database system, the other languages ​​being one or more languages ​​different from the first language in the multilinguality, the entities including at least chapter list information, data module type information, and pre-text materials of the technical publication; and a data module and entity instance generator, the data module and entity instance generator being configured to: create data modules and entity instances, the data module including specific features for each language in the multilinguality. Content container; filling the content of the first language into the content container corresponding to that language in the data module, and generating the pre-text content of the manual in the first language according to the pre-text content generation rules of the manual; filling the content of other languages ​​into the content container corresponding to the corresponding language in the data module and generating the pre-text content of the manual in the corresponding language according to the mapping relationship and the translation relationship between the entities of the first language and the entities of the other languages; consistency detector, which is configured to: assign corresponding identifiers to each part of the content of each language in the multilingual system at an appropriate granularity; check whether the content parts of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content parts of the other languages ​​by automatically comparing the identifiers; and multilingual technical publication generator, which is configured to: automatically generate multilingual technical publications according to the technical publication structure tree, the data module and the pre-text content of the manual when the consistency detector determines that the content parts of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content parts of the other languages.

[0020] According to a third aspect of this disclosure, a computing apparatus is provided for performing a method according to a first aspect of the present invention.

[0021] Thus, this disclosure ensures consistency of top-level information in manuals across different languages ​​by managing data module content within the same project. This allows technical publication managers to manage only one project, improving management efficiency and reducing the risk of inconsistencies between different language manuals. Data module content in different languages ​​can be compiled into the same data module, using different language codes to identify the content. During data module development, the system automatically checks for one-to-one correspondence (i.e., consistency) between different language contents. When a data module is modified, the system automatically checks for completeness (whether all language contents have been modified), ensuring consistency across different language data modules. Technical publications support IETP publishing, IETP incremental publishing, PDF publishing, PDF incremental publishing, WORD publishing, and WORD incremental publishing. Manual publishing supports individual versions in different languages ​​and comparative versions in two or more languages. Completed IETP manuals are uploaded to an interactive electronic technical manual browsing system, where users can select and browse the appropriate language version according to their needs.

[0022] The aspects generally include, as substantially as described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings and as explained by the drawings, methods, apparatus, systems, computer program products, and processing systems.

[0028] Terminology Explanation:

[0029] Technical Publications: A collection of information necessary to support product operation and maintenance. For aero engines, technical publications mainly refer to engine product-related manuals, data packages, and other continuing airworthiness documents and operational support documents.

[0030] Data Module: A data module is the smallest unit of information in a technical publication that contains complete technical content.

[0031] Public Source Database (CSDB): As proposed by the S1000D specification, it serves as a unified repository for compiling all relevant information objects for the entire technical publication and is responsible for managing the entire project.

[0032] Technical publication publication: The process of compiling individual data modules into a complete manual through a technical publication publication system.

[0033] Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM): A technical manual compiled in a standard digital format, using text, graphics, tables, audio, and video, to provide information on the basic principles, operation, and maintenance of equipment in a human-computer interactive manner.

[0034] The detailed description that follows, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, is intended as a description of various configurations and is not intended to represent the only configurations in which the concepts described herein can be practiced. This detailed description includes specific details to provide a thorough understanding of the various concepts. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that these concepts can be practiced without these specific details.

[0035] Although the embodiments of this disclosure are generally described in the following description using aerospace product technical publications, those skilled in the art will understand that the technical solutions of this disclosure are also applicable to any other suitable technical publications, such as marine product technical publications, land transportation technical publications, weapon system technical publications, etc.

[0036] refer to Figure 1 The diagram illustrates a flowchart of an exemplary method 100 for generating multilingual technical publications according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As the name suggests, multilingual includes at least two different languages.

[0037] As shown in the figure, method 100 may include, in block 110, obtaining a technical publication structure tree in a first language. Here, the first language is any of the aforementioned multiple languages; for example, if the user selects Chinese as the first language, method 100 may obtain a Chinese technical publication structure tree, and so on. In one embodiment, the technical publication structure tree is defined according to a Standard Coding System (SNS) and may include chapter directory information of the technical publications. Those skilled in the art will understand that the technical publication structure tree may be predefined and stored in a suitable location, such as on a server, in a database, in the cloud, locally on the computing device executing method 100, etc.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the technical publication is an aviation product technical publication. Those skilled in the art will understand that the aviation product can be any suitable aviation product. For example, in one example, the aviation product includes an aircraft engine, landing gear, display system, etc.

[0039] Next, in box 120, method 100 may include obtaining the pre-text materials of the manual in the first language, as well as the rules for generating the pre-text materials, the mapping relationships and translation relationships between entities in the first language and entities in other languages. In this embodiment, the other languages ​​are one or more languages ​​different from the first language in the aforementioned multi-language set, and the entities include at least the chapter directory information of the technical publication, data module type information, and the pre-text materials of the manual, etc. Those skilled in the art will understand that the term "technical publication" may include one or more "manuals".

[0040] In a preferred embodiment of this disclosure, the pre-text materials of the first language manual, the rules for generating the pre-text materials, the mapping relationships and translation relationships between entities in the first language and entities in other languages ​​are obtained from a public source database system.

[0041] Subsequently, method 100 may include creating a data module and an entity instance at block 130. In this embodiment, the data module is a data module of a corresponding type created based on the data module type information included in the entity, and the entity instance is used to receive the pre-text materials of the corresponding entity. Further according to this embodiment, the data module may include a content container for each of the above-described multilingual languages ​​to receive the corresponding text content of the technical publication.

[0042] Continue to refer to Figure 1 In box 140, method 100 may include populating the first language content into the content container corresponding to that language in the data module, and generating the first language manual pre-text material content according to the manual pre-text content generation rules.

[0043] In box 150, method 100 may include populating content in other languages ​​into content containers in the data module corresponding to the respective languages, and generating pre-textuality information for the corresponding languages ​​of the manual, based on (e.g., the mapping and translation relationships between entities in the first language and entities in other languages, obtained in box 120).

[0044] Method 100 may then include, in box 160, checking whether the content portions of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content portions of other languages.

[0045] In one embodiment of this disclosure, checking whether the content portions of the first language in a multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content portions of other languages ​​may include assigning corresponding identifiers to each part of the content in each language of the multilingual system at an appropriate granularity, and checking whether the content portions of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content portions of other languages ​​by automatically comparing the identifiers. However, those skilled in the art will understand that various other methods may exist to check the consistency of content in different languages. For example, the consistency of content can be checked by using bilingual and / or multilingual dictionaries, corpora, etc.; the consistency of content in different languages ​​can be determined based on the word count ratio statistics of the two languages; and so on. For example, when using the word count ratio statistics of the two languages ​​for consistency judgment, a certain deviation margin can also be adopted. Taking Chinese-English translation as an example, the word count ratio of Chinese and English is approximately 1.8:1. If the deviation margin is specified as 0.1, then the word count ratio of Chinese and English in the range of 1.7-1.9:1 can be considered consistent. In a preferred embodiment of this disclosure, various consistency checks can be combined according to arbitrary weights to obtain a normalized consistency judgment.

[0046] In a further embodiment of this disclosure, a suitable granularity can be any suitable division of the content of a technical publication, such as paragraphs, sentences, etc., of the content of a technical publication. In yet another embodiment of this disclosure, the assigned identifier includes an identifier for the corresponding language and a numerical code. For example, for Chinese, the language identifier could be ZH; for English, the language identifier could be EN; and so on. Thus, according to the two embodiments above, the identifiers for the first paragraph of Chinese and English content could be ZH0001 and EN0001, respectively, and so on. Further according to these embodiments, detecting whether the content portion of the first language is consistent with the corresponding content portion of other languages ​​includes detecting whether the numerical codes of the identifiers for the same content portion in different languages ​​are the same. If all the numerical codes are the same, it can be determined that the content portion of the first language is consistent with the corresponding content portion of other languages.

[0047] Continue to refer to Figure 1In box 170, method 100 may include automatically generating multilingual technical publications based on the technical publication structure tree, data modules, and pre-text information of the manual, provided that the content is consistent across different languages. For example, method 100 can generate technical publications by creating technical publication modules, configuring relevant attribute parameters of technical publications, building a technical publication module structure tree, and associating it with relevant data modules, etc., to retrieve corresponding content from the data modules based on language (e.g., through language identifiers).

[0048] In one embodiment, method 100 may optionally include receiving a language selection from a user before generating a multilingual technical publication, and generating a technical publication in the corresponding language based on the user's selected language. For example, if a user only needs a Chinese version of the technical publication, the user can select Chinese, and method 100 can generate only a Chinese version of the technical publication based on the user's selection.

[0049] In another embodiment, method 100 may optionally include publishing the technical publication in a pre-set format after generating it in the corresponding language. For example, formats such as WORD and PDF may be pre-set, and method 100 may publish the technical publication according to this pre-set format. Further according to this embodiment, method 100 may optionally include uploading the published technical publication to an interactive electronic technical manual browsing system, so that users can select and browse technical publications in the desired language as needed.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment of this disclosure, method 100 may optionally include automatically checking whether the content in other languages ​​of the multilingual publication has also been modified when the content in any language of the multilingual publication in the data module is modified. Furthermore, if the content in any language of the multilingual publication has not been modified, the user is notified of this situation or the generation of the multilingual technical publication is prevented. For example, the user can be notified of inconsistencies between different language versions of the technical publication through various means such as pop-ups, instant messages, telephone calls, and beeps. Further according to this embodiment, in the event of inconsistency, when generating the multilingual technical publication, the process stops at the unmodified content portion in any language of the multilingual publication (excluding the original language) to prompt the user of the location of the inconsistency and prompt them to make changes.

[0051] In one embodiment, method 100 may optionally include assigning a unique identifier and / or version number to the technical publication to facilitate tracking the update history of the technical publication. In one example, the unique identifier is given according to the publication module coding rules.

[0052] Continue to refer to Figure 2The diagram illustrates a schematic block diagram of an exemplary system 200 for generating multilingual technical publications according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0053] As shown in the figure, system 200 may include: a specification acquirer 210 for acquiring various parts of a technical publication, a data module and entity instance generator 220, a consistency detector 230, and a multilingual technical publication generator 240.

[0054] In one embodiment, the acquirer 210 may be configured to: acquire a technical publication structure tree in a first language defined according to a Standard Coding System (SNS), the technical publication structure tree including chapter directory information of the technical publication, wherein the first language is any of the multiple languages; acquire the pre-text materials of the manual in the first language and the rules for generating the pre-text materials content in the first language as defined in a public source database system; and acquire the mapping relationship and mutual translation relationship between entities of the first language and entities of other languages ​​as defined in the public source database system, wherein the other languages ​​are one or more languages ​​different from the first language in the multiple languages, and the entities include at least the chapter directory information, data module type information and pre-text materials of the technical publication. The data module and entity instance generator 220 can be configured to: create data modules and entity instances, the data modules including content containers for each language in the multilingual system; populate the content of the first language into the corresponding content container in the data module, and generate the pre-text material content for the first language of the manual according to the pre-text content generation rules; and populate the content of other languages ​​into the corresponding content container in the data module and generate the pre-text material content for the corresponding language of the manual according to the mapping relationship and translation relationship between entities in the first language and entities in the other languages. A consistency detector 230 can be configured to: assign corresponding identifiers to portions of the content in each language of the multilingual system at an appropriate granularity, and check whether the content portions of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content portions of the other languages ​​by automatically comparing the identifiers. The multilingual technical publication generator 240 can be configured to automatically generate multilingual technical publications based on the technical publication structure tree, data modules, and pre-text information of the manual, provided that the consistency detector determines that the content portions of the first language in the multilingual system are consistent with the corresponding content portions of the other languages.

[0055] Figure 3 This is for performing according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1The illustrated example of method 100 is a schematic computing device 300. As shown, the computing device 300 includes a processor 305 and a memory 310. The memory 310 stores computer-executable instructions 315 that can be executed by the processor 305 to achieve the above combination. Figure 1 The methods and processes described.

[0056] Therefore, the system and method for writing, managing, and publishing multilingual aviation product technical publication data modules disclosed herein can: a) support product structure definition and data module type definition in the database; b) support the definition of multilingual entities (chapter directory information of manual structure, data module type information, etc.) and their mapping and translation relationships in the database; c) support the writing of multilingual content in the same data module, with different language content identified by language codes; d) support the establishment of associations between technical publication modules and data modules; e) support version and status management of technical publication modules; and f) support automatic checking of the completeness of changes when data modules are modified (if the content in one language is modified, the system automatically checks whether the corresponding content in other languages ​​has been modified); and so on.
