[0017] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, the same or corresponding parts are designated by the same reference characters and description thereof will not be repeated.

[0018] First, the configuration of a family register analysis system according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a family register analysis system 100 including an information processing device according to this embodiment. As shown in Fig. 1, the family register analysis system 100 includes a terminal device 1, a family register image generation device 2, and a network 3.

[0019] The terminal device 1 and the family register image generation device 2 can communicate via a network 3. The network 3 may include, for example, at least one of a LAN (Local Area Network), a wireless LAN, a mobile phone communication network, infrared communication, Bluetooth (registered trademark), etc. The terminal device 1 is a terminal used by a user, and may be, for example, a desktop personal computer, a notebook personal computer, a tablet terminal, or a smartphone.

[0020] The family register image generation device 2 may be, for example, an image reading device (scanner) 21, a camera 22, or a smartphone 23. The family register image generation device 2 generates a family register image showing an image of a family register copy. Specifically, the image reading device 21 reads the family register copy R1 and generates family register image data showing an image (family register image P1) formed in the family register copy R1.

[0021] The camera 22 and the smartphone 23 capture a still image of the family register copy R1 and generate family register image data.

[0022] The family register image generating device 2 transmits the family register image data to the terminal device 1 via the network 3.

[0023] The terminal device 1 includes a housing 11, a display unit 12, an operation unit 13, a control unit 14, and a memory unit 15. The display unit 12 includes, for example, a liquid crystal display and an organic electroluminescence display. The operation unit 13 includes, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, a trackpad, and the like. The control unit 14 includes, for example, a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The memory unit 15 includes storage devices such as semiconductor memory and a hard disk drive (HDD). The control unit 14 controls the display unit 12, the operation unit 13, and the memory unit 15. The memory unit 15 stores data, computer programs, and the like.

[0024] For example, the memory unit 15 stores a family register analysis program. The control unit 14 functions as an information processing device by executing the family register analysis program. The control unit 14 includes an image analysis unit 101, an acquisition unit 102, an identification unit 103, an heir identification unit 104, a generation unit 105, and a reorganization date identification unit 106. Specifically, the control unit 14 functions as the image analysis unit 101, the acquisition unit 102, the identification unit 103, the heir identification unit 104, the generation unit 105, and the reorganization date identification unit 106 by executing the family register analysis program. The control unit 14 and the memory unit 15 constitute the information processing system 10.

[0025] Next, the information processing system 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a functional block diagram of the information processing system 10 according to this embodiment.

[0026] The acquisition unit 102 in the control unit 14 acquires the family register image P1. Specifically, the acquisition unit 102 receives the family register image data transmitted from the family register image generation device 2 via the network 3. The image analysis unit 101 acquires the family register image P1 from the family register image data received by the acquisition unit 102 and analyzes the family register image P1 to generate family register information J1. The family register information J1 includes family register item information JR1 that indicates information about the family register copy R1, and personal information JM1 that indicates information about the people included in the family register image.

[0027] Next, each process in the image analysis unit 101 will be described in detail with reference to Fig. 1 to Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a family register copy of the 1994 model according to this embodiment. Fig. 3 shows one family register copy.

[0028] Below, the details of each process in the image analysis unit 101 will be explained using the 1994 certified family register R1A shown in Fig. 3 as an example. Fig. 3 shows the certified family register R1A and also shows a family register image P1A.

[0029] The image analysis unit 101 acquires a family register image P1A that indicates an image of the family register copy R1A generated by the family register image generation device 2. Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 receives family register image data that indicates the family register image P1A transmitted from the family register image generation device 2.

[0030] The image analysis unit 101 analyzes the family register image P1A to generate family register information J1. Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 performs OCR (Optical Character Recognition) processing or the like to recognize characters included in the family register image P1A. Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 acquires the characters included in the family register image P1A as text data as a result of the OCR processing. The image analysis unit 101 also acquires layout information indicating the layout of characters in the family register image P1A. The layout information indicates, for example, the orientation and position of characters included in the family register image P1A.

[0031] The image analysis unit 101 generates family register information JR1A and personal information JM1A based on the recognized characters. Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 generates family register information JR1A and personal information JM1A based on the acquired text data and layout information.

[0032] In the example of family register image P1A, the image analysis unit 101 determines, based on the acquired text data and layout information, that area ER1A in the family register image P1A is a family register item section and that the contents of area ER1A are family register item information. Furthermore, based on the acquired text data and layout information, the image analysis unit 101 acquires the issue number S1 and the "issue date" of the family register copy R1A included in the family register image P1A. The issue number S1 is an example of family register identification information for identifying the family register information J1. The image analysis unit 101 generates family register item information JR1A based on the acquired family register identification information, issue date information indicating the "issue date" of the family register copy R1A, and the family register item information determined from the contents of area ER1A.

[0033] Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 selects part or all of the text data acquired from the area ER1A based on the layout information from the acquired text data to generate the family register item information JR1A. Also, the image analysis unit 101 identifies the family register identification information and the issuance date information from the acquired text data based on the layout information, and includes the family register identification information and the issuance date information in the family register item information JR1A.

[0034] For example, the family register information JR1A includes information that the family register R1A is a revised family register and the "revision date" of the family register R1A (Heisei year __ month __ day). The "revision date" is the date on which the family register R1A was compiled due to the revision of the family register.

[0035] Furthermore, based on the acquired text data and layout information, the image analysis unit 101 determines that the area ER2A in the family register image P1A is a personal information field, and that the contents of the area ER2A are personal information.

[0036] Furthermore, based on the acquired text data and layout information, the image analysis unit 101 determines that the area EHA in the family register image P1A is the head of the family details section, and that the contents of the area EHA are head of the family information.

[0037] The image analysis unit 101 generates head of household information JHA indicating the contents of the area EHA. The head of household information JHA indicates that the head of household in the family register R1A is "Yamazaki Ata."

[0038] The image analysis unit 101 generates personal information JM1A indicating the contents of the area ER2A.

[0039] In the example of family register image P1A, the image analysis unit 101 determines, based on the acquired text data and placement information, that area ER2A includes areas ER21A, ER22A, and ER23A. The image analysis unit 101 determines that family register image P1A includes three personal information fields.

[0040] The image analysis unit 101 determines that the area ER21A is a first personal information field and that the content of the area ER21A is first personal information. The content of the first personal information field is the personal information of one of the people included in the family register image P1A.

[0041] For example, the contents of the first personal information section are information about the head of the family in the family register R1A. Specifically, the first personal information section includes information about the birth, marriage, and death of the head of the family.

[0042] Information about the birth of the head of the family includes the "date of birth." Information about the marriage of the head of the family includes the "date of marriage" and the "permanent domicile" of the "previous family register" before marriage. Information about the death of the head of the family includes information that the head of the family was removed from the family register due to death and the "date of death."

[0043] The "date of birth" of the head of a family is the date on which the head's previous family register was revised due to the birth of the head of a family, and is an example of the "date of revision" of a family register. The previous family register is the family register immediately before the revised original family register, which is the family register before the revision of Family Register R1A, and indicates the family register that includes the head of a family.

[0044] The "marriage date" of the head of household is the date on which the original family register for the revised Family Register R1A was compiled due to the marriage of the head of household, and is an example of the "composition date" of a family register.

[0045] The "date of death" of the head of the family is the date on which the family register R1A was revised due to the death of the head of the family, and is an example of the "date of revision" of a family register. The "date of death" also indicates that "Yamazaki A-ta" was removed from the family register due to his death.

[0046] The image analysis unit 101 determines that the area ER22A is a second personal information field and that the contents of the area ER22A are second personal information. The contents of the second personal information field are the personal information of one of the people included in the family register image P1A, other than the head of the family. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the contents of the second personal information field indicate information about "Yamazaki B," the wife of the head of the family, "Yamazaki A." Specifically, the second personal information field includes information about the birth and marriage of "Yamazaki B." Information about the birth of "Yamazaki B" includes a "date of birth." Information about the marriage of the head of the family includes a "marriage date" and the "permanent domicile" of the "previous family register" before the marriage. The "date of birth" of "Yamazaki B" is the date on which "Yamazaki B's" previous family register was revised due to the birth of "Yamazaki B," and is an example of the "date of revision" of a family register. The previous family register is the family register immediately before the revised original family register, which is the family register before the revision of Family Register R1A, and indicates the family register that includes "Yamazaki B." The "marriage date" of "Yamazaki B" is the date on which the revised original family register of Family Register R1A was compiled due to the marriage of "Yamazaki B."

[0047] The image analysis unit 101 determines that the area ER23A is a third personal information field and that the contents of the area ER23A are third personal information. The contents of the third personal information field are the personal information of one of the people included in the family register image P1A, other than the head of the family. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the contents of the third personal information field indicate information about "Yamazaki Cumi," the child of the head of the family, "Yamazaki Ata." Specifically, the third personal information field includes information about the birth and marriage of "Yamazaki Cumi." Information about the birth of "Yamazaki Cumi" includes her "date of birth." Information about the marriage of the head of the family includes her "marriage date" and the "permanent domicile" of the "new family register" after the marriage. The "date of birth" of "Yamazaki Cumi" is the date on which the family register R1A was revised due to the birth of "Yamazaki Cumi," and is an example of the "revision date" of a family register. The "marriage date" of "Yamazaki Cmi" is the date on which "Yamazaki Cmi" was removed from the family register R1A due to her marriage, and is an example of the "reorganization date" of a family register.

[0048] The image analysis unit 101 generates personal information JM1A including first personal information JM11A indicating the contents of area ER21A, second personal information JM12A indicating the contents of area ER22A, and third personal information JM13A indicating the contents of area ER23A.

[0049] Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 selects part or all of the text data acquired from the area ER21A based on the head person information JHA and the placement information from the acquired text data, and generates the first personal information JM11A.

[0050] For example, the first personal information JM11A includes information that the contents of the area ER21A are information about the head of the family, and information indicating the "name," "date of birth," "father," and "mother" of the head of the family.

[0051] Furthermore, the image analysis unit 101 selects part or all of the text data acquired from the area ER22A based on the head person information JHA and the placement information from the acquired text data, and generates second personal information JM12A.

[0052] For example, the second personal information JM12A includes information that the contents of the area ER22A are information about the spouse of the head of the family, and information indicating the spouse's "name," "date of birth," "father," and "mother," etc.

[0053] Furthermore, the image analysis unit 101 selects part or all of the text data acquired from the area ER23A based on the head person information JHA and the placement information from the acquired text data, and generates third personal information JM13A.

[0054] For example, the third personal information JM13A includes information that the contents of the field ER23A are information about the head of the family, and information indicating the child's "name," "date of birth," "father," and "mother."

[0055] In addition, the third personal information JM13A further includes information that "Cmi" has been removed from the family register due to marriage, information that "Cmi"'s spouse is "Sato Dman", and domicile information indicating "Cmi"'s new domicile.

[0056] As described above, the family register information J1 includes information about multiple people.

[0057] Next, processing after the generation of the family register information J1 will be described with reference to Fig. 2 to Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a diagram schematically showing the data structures of the family register information J1 and personal information JJ generated by the information processing device according to this embodiment.

[0058] When the family register information J1 is generated by the image analysis unit 101, the identification unit 103 identifies people included in the family register image P1A based on the family register information J1. Specifically, the identification unit 103 identifies three people, "Yamazaki A-ta," "Yamazaki B-ko," and "Yamazaki C-mi," included in the family register image P1A based on the first personal information JM11A, second personal information JM12A, and third personal information JM13A generated by the image analysis unit 101.

[0059] The generation unit 105 generates personal information JJ relating to each person identified by the identification unit 103, based on the family register information J1 generated by the image analysis unit 101. In other words, the generation unit 105 generates personal information JJ1, JJ2, and JJ3 indicating "Yamazaki A-ta," "Yamazaki B-ko," and "Yamazaki C-mi," respectively, identified by the identification unit 103.

[0060] Specifically, the generation unit 105 extracts first personal information JM11A indicating "Yamazaki A-ta" and family register information JR1A from the family register information J1, and stores the family register information JR1A in the first personal information information JM11A to generate personal information JJ1. Similarly, the generation unit 105 extracts second personal information JM12A indicating "Yamazaki B-ko" and family register information JR1A from the family register information J1, and stores the family register information JR1A in the second personal information information JM12A to generate personal information JJ2. The generation unit 105 extracts third personal information JM13A indicating "Yamazaki C-mi" and family register information JR1A from the family register information J1, and stores the family register information JR1A in the third personal information information JM13A to generate personal information JJ3.

[0061] In this way, by storing family register information in personal information about a person, information is aggregated for each person, and data processing can be performed simply in an information processing device. Also, for example, personal information can be provided to devices other than the information processing device, and aggregated information about a person can be used in devices other than the information processing device.

[0062] The generating unit 105 stores the generated personal information JJ1, JJ2, and JJ3 in the storage unit 15.

[0063] As described above, the information processing device according to this embodiment can provide person information to devices other than this information processing device. An example of such an information processing device will be described with reference to Fig. 5. Fig. 5 shows functional blocks of an information processing system 110 including the information processing device. The information processing system 110 is connected to a third-party system 150 serving as an external terminal via a network 120 such as the Internet, and is capable of transmitting and receiving data and information to and from the third-party system 150.

[0064] The information processing system 110 includes a control unit 14, a storage unit 15, an I / F (interface) 111, and an API (Application Programming Interface) 112. The control unit 14 and the storage unit 15 are the same as the control unit 14 and the storage unit 15 of the information processing system 10 shown in FIG.

[0065] The I / F 111 is provided to transmit data such as personal information stored in the storage unit 15 to the network 120, or to allow the information processing system 110 to receive data transmitted to the network 120 from other systems or the like.

[0066] The API 112 allows the information processing system 110 and the other company's system 150 to communicate with each other. It is provided for the purpose of sharing and using the data or information sent and received. In other words, although the information processing system 110 and the other company's system 150 have different software programs for processing their respective data and information, by sending and receiving data etc. via API 112, both systems can use this data etc.

[0067] The other company's system 150 is connected to the information processing system 110 as an external terminal via the network 120. The other company's system 150 is installed, for example, in a company or business establishment other than the company or business establishment where the information processing system 110 is installed. The other company's system 150 is connected to the network 120 via an I / F (interface) 152, which allows it to send and receive data and information to and from other systems, devices, etc. connected to the network 120.

[0068] An example of the other company's system 150 is one that includes an heir database 151, as shown in FIG. The heir database 151 is a database of inheritances of the deceased's estate. Data indicating the order of inheritance among relatives and other related parties is recorded. The heir database 151 also records data or information on an inheritance relationship explanatory chart created based on the above data.

[0069] When recording the above data in the heir database 151, the personal information and information on the inheritance relationship explanatory diagram generated by the information processing system 110 can be provided to the heir database 151. That is, the other company's system 150 can request the information processing system 110 to provide the personal information and information on the inheritance relationship explanatory diagram via the API 112, and in response, the information processing system 110 can transmit the personal information and information on the inheritance relationship explanatory diagram to the other company's system 150. In addition, family register information generated or recorded in the information processing system 110 Family register information, personal information, and the like are transmitted from the information processing system 110 to the other company's system 150 in response to a request from the other company's system 150 .

[0070] In this embodiment, when the acquisition unit 102 acquires a new family register image, the generation unit 105 generates personal information JJ. At this time, if personal information JJ indicating the same person as the generated personal information is already stored in the storage unit 15, the personal information JJ is updated. In other words, the generation unit 105 updates the personal information JJ already stored in the storage unit 15 based on the family register information generated by the image analysis unit 101. Therefore, the personal information JJ is more likely to reflect the current situation.

[0071] As an example, the following describes a case where the acquisition unit 102 acquires a new family register image P1B including "Yamazaki Cmi" and the memory unit 15 already stores personal information JJ3 indicating "Yamazaki Cmi."

[0072] Next, updating of personal information will be described with reference to Fig. 6 and Fig. 7. Fig. 6 is a diagram showing another example of a 1994 certified family register copy according to this embodiment. Fig. 7 is a diagram showing a schematic data structure of personal information JJ after updating. Personal information JJ1 and personal information JJ2 in Fig. 7 are the same as personal information JJ1 and personal information JJ2 in Fig. 4, respectively, and therefore will not be shown or described again.

[0073] Figure 6 shows a new family register copy R1B and family register image P1B generated as a result of the marriage of "Yamazaki Cmi." Family register image P1B includes area EHB, area ER1B, and area ER2B. Area ER2B includes area ER21B, which is the first personal information column, and area ER22B, which is the second personal information column. The image analysis unit 101 (Figure 2) generates family register information J2 based on the contents of areas EHB, ER1B, and ER2B. Family register information J2 includes family register information JR1B and personal information JM1B. Personal information JM1B includes first personal information JM11B and second personal information JM12B.

[0074] Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 (FIG. 2) generates head of household information JHB indicating the contents of area EHB. The head of household information JHB indicates that the head of household in the family register R1B is "Sato D."

[0075] Furthermore, the image analysis unit 101 (FIG. 2) generates family register item information JR1B. For example, the image analysis unit 101 acquires the issue number S2 and the "issue date" of the family register copy R1B included in the family register image P1B based on the acquired text data and placement information. The image analysis unit 101 generates family register item information JR1B indicating family register item information from the acquired issue number S2, the "issue date" of the family register copy R1B, and the contents of area ER1B.

[0076] Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 selects some or all of the text data acquired from the area ER1B based on the placement information from the acquired text data to generate the family register item information JR1B. Furthermore, the image analysis unit 101 identifies the issue number S2 and the "issue date" of the family register copy R1B based on the placement information from the acquired text data, and includes the issue number S2 and the "issue date" of the family register copy R1B in the family register item information JR1B.

[0077] Furthermore, the image analysis unit 101 (FIG. 2) generates personal information JM1B indicating the contents of the area ER2B. Specifically, the image analysis unit 101 (FIG. 2) generates first personal information JM11B indicating the contents of the area ER21B and second personal information JM12B indicating the contents of the area ER22B.

[0078] The first personal information JM11B includes information that the contents of field ER21B are information about the head of the family "Sato D-san," as well as information indicating the head of the family's "name," "date of birth," "father," "mother," "date of birth," and "date of marriage." The first personal information JM11B also includes the "permanent domicile" of the "previous family register" before marriage.

[0079] The second personal information JM12B includes information that the contents of area ER22B are information about the head of household's spouse "Cmi", and information indicating the spouse's "name", "date of birth", "father", "mother", "date of birth" and "date of marriage", etc.

[0080] The identification unit 103 identifies two people, "Sato D-o" and "Sato C-mi", included in the family register image P1B based on the first personal information JM11B and the second personal information JM12B generated by the image analysis unit 101.

[0081] The generating unit 105 generates personal information JJ4 and JJ5 indicating "Sato D-o" and "Sato C-mi" respectively identified by the identifying unit 103.

[0082] Specifically, the generation unit 105 extracts first personal information JM11B indicating "Sato D-o" and family register information JR1B from the family register information J2, stores the family register information JR1B in the first personal information information JM11B, and generates personal information JJ4. Similarly, the generation unit 105 extracts second personal information JM12B indicating "Sato C-mi" from the family register information J2, and family register information JR1B, and stores the family register information JR1B in the second personal information information JM12B, and generates personal information JJ5.

[0083] At this time, the generation unit 105 compares the first personal information JM11B and the second personal information JM12B with the personal information included in each piece of personal information already stored in the storage unit 15. For example, the generation unit 105 compares the second personal information JM12B with the first personal information JM11A included in the personal information JJ1 already stored in the storage unit 15, the second personal information JM12A included in the personal information JJ2, or the third personal information JM13A included in the personal information JJ3.

[0084] The generation unit 105 determines that the "first name," "date of birth," and "parent's name" of the person indicated by the second personal information JM12B ("Sato C.mi") match the "first name," "date of birth," and "parent's name" of the person indicated by the third personal information JM13A ("Yamazaki C.mi"), respectively, and determines that the person indicated by the second personal information JM12B ("Sato C.mi") and the person indicated by the third personal information JM13A ("Yamazaki C.mi") are the same person.

[0085] The generation unit 105 integrates the second personal information JM12B and the third personal information JM13A, and updates the personal information JJ3 by including the family register information JR1B corresponding to the family register information J2, to generate the personal information JJ5. In this way, in the personal information JJ5, the two pieces of family register information JR1A and family register information JR1B are stored in the personal information indicating "Yamazaki (Sato) Cmi."

[0086] Next, the data structure of the personal information JJ will be described in more detail with reference to Figures 4 and 7. In this embodiment, the personal information in the personal information JJ stores information indicating potential heirs in the event of inheritance of the corresponding person.

[0087] Specifically, when the generation unit 105 generates the personal information JJ, the heir identification unit 104 identifies potential heirs for each person included in the family register information generated by the image analysis unit 101 based on the family register information generated by the image analysis unit 101 and the personal information JJ already stored in the memory unit 15.

[0088] For example, the heir identification unit 104 refers to the first personal information JM11A, second personal information JM12A, and third personal information JM13A contained in the family register information J1, and the personal information contained in the personal information JJ already stored in the memory unit 15, and identifies the spouse "Yamazaki B" of "Yamazaki A-ta" corresponding to the first personal information JM11A as a potential heir, and further identifies the child "Yamazaki (Sato) C-mi" as the first potential heir. A first potential heir indicates a candidate for the first-ranked heir as defined by the Civil Code.

[0089] The generating unit 105 generates identification information ID2 and ID3 indicating "Yamazaki B" and "Yamazaki (Sato) C" respectively identified by the heir identifying unit 104, and stores them in the first personal information JM11A.

[0090] Similarly, the heir identification unit 104 identifies "Yamazaki A-ta", the spouse of "Yamazaki B-ko" corresponding to the second personal information JM12A, as a potential heir, and further identifies the child "Yamazaki (Sato) C-mi" as the first potential heir. The generation unit 105 generates identification information ID1 and ID3 indicating "Yamazaki A-ta" and "Yamazaki (Sato) C-mi" respectively identified by the heir identification unit 104, and stores them in the second personal information JM12A.

[0091] Furthermore, the heir identification unit 104 identifies "Yamazaki A" and "Yamazaki B", the parents of "Yamazaki (Sato) C" corresponding to the third personal information JM13A, as second heir candidates. A second heir candidate indicates that the person is a candidate for second-rank heir as defined in the Civil Code. The generation unit 105 generates identification information ID1 and ID2 indicating "Yamazaki A" and "Yamazaki B", respectively, identified by the heir identification unit 104, and stores them in the third personal information JM13A. At this time, if personal information JJ5 is generated, the heir identification unit 104 further identifies "Sato D", the spouse of "Yamazaki (Sato) C", as a heir candidate, and the generation unit 105 stores identification information ID4 indicating "Sato D" in the personal information of the personal information JJ5.

[0092] In this way, by identifying potential heirs regardless of whether they are the deceased or not and storing them in the personal information JJ, it is possible to easily generate the inheritance relationship explanation diagram T1 described below, for example, simply by referring to the personal information JJ.

[0093] Furthermore, if "Yamazaki (Sato) Cmi" has died when identifying the potential heirs of "Yamazaki Ata" or "Yamazaki Bko," the heir identification unit 104 will exclude "Yamazaki (Sato) Cmi" from the first potential heirs.

[0094] [Generate inheritance relationship diagram] Next, the generation of the inheritance relationship explanatory diagram T1 will be described with reference to Fig. 2 to Fig. 8. Fig. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the inheritance relationship explanatory diagram T1 according to this embodiment.

[0095] In this embodiment, when a creation instruction to create an inheritance relationship explanation diagram starting from a person corresponding to any of the personal information JJ generated by the generation unit 105 is input to the terminal device 1 via the operation unit 13, the control unit 14 creates the inheritance relationship explanation diagram T1 in accordance with the input creation instruction.

[0096] Specifically, based on the creation instruction, the control unit 14 refers to the storage unit 15 and acquires personal information JJ corresponding to the person at the starting point of the inheritance relationship explanatory diagram T1. The control unit 14 refers to the identification information ID included in the acquired personal information JJ and further acquires personal information JJ indicating the person corresponding to the identification information ID.

[0097] The control unit 14 identifies the blood relations of the plurality of people based on the acquired personal information JJ of the plurality of people, and creates an inheritance relationship explanation chart T1.

[0098] [Display of changes in family register] In this embodiment, the personal information JJ includes revision date information D indicating the revision date related to the corresponding person. Specifically, when the image analysis unit 101 generates the family register information J1 or the family register information J2, the revision date identification unit 106 classifies the "revision date" included in the family register information J1 or the family register information J2 for each person included in the family register information J1 or the family register information J2 according to each personal information item. In other words, the revision date identification unit 106 identifies the "revision date" related to each person included in the family register information J1 or the family register information J2. When generating the personal information JJ, the generation unit 105 stores the revision date information D indicating the "revision date" identified by the revision date identification unit 106 in the personal information.

[0099] By including the "date of reorganization" for each person in the person information JJ, it becomes possible to display on the display unit 12, for example, a screen V1 showing the changes in the family register for each person.

[0100] Next, a screen V1 displayed on the display unit 12 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 9. Fig. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a screen V1 displayed on the display unit 12 and showing changes in family register.

[0101] For example, when a display instruction to display screen V1 on display unit 12 is input to terminal device 1 via operation unit 13, control unit 14 creates screen V1 in accordance with the input display instruction and displays it on display unit 12.

[0102] Specifically, based on the display instruction, the control unit 14 refers to the storage unit 15 and acquires personal information JJ corresponding to the person whose family register transition is to be displayed. The control unit 14 extracts the "reorganization date" from the acquired personal information JJ and creates a screen V1 in which images indicating the "reorganization date" are arranged in chronological order. At this time, the control unit 14 may place an image indicating the reason for the reorganization in a position corresponding to the "reorganization date."

[0103] Furthermore, when generating the person information JJ, the generation unit 105 stores the domicile information of the corresponding person in the personal information. This makes it possible to display the domicile of the person in addition to the changes in the family register on the screen V1, as shown in Fig. 9.

[0104] [Determining the year of the family register] In this embodiment, the image analysis unit 101 (FIG. 2) determines the model year of the family register image (certified family register) based on the acquired text data and layout information. For example, the image analysis unit 101 determines whether the model year of the family register image (certified family register) is Heisei 6 (1944), 1948 (1948), 1915 (1916), or Meiji 31 ​​(1898) based on the acquired text data and layout information. The image analysis unit 101 may further distinguish between the 1948 model and the model year before the 1957 revision and the model year after the 1957 revision. The image analysis unit 101 includes model year information Y, which indicates the determination result of the model year of the family register image (certified family register), in the family register item information. In FIGS. 4 and 7, model year information Y1 "Yh6" and model year information Y2 "Yh6", which indicate Heisei 6 (1944), are stored in family register item information JR1A and family register item information JR1B, respectively.

[0105] The generation unit 105 may determine whether to generate personal information JJ according to the model year information Y. Specifically, when the model year information Y indicates the 1994 model year, that is, when the generation unit 105 determines that the model year of the family register is the 1994 model year, it generates personal information JJ. Generally, the accuracy of character recognition by the image analysis unit 101 is often lower for family register copies of models other than the 1994 model year than for family register copies of the 1994 model year. Therefore, by generating personal information JJ only when the model year of the family register is the 1994 model year, it becomes less likely that inaccurate personal information JJ will be generated.

[0106] The generating unit 105 may be configured to generate the personal information JJ regardless of the year of the family register copy.

[0107] Next, an information processing method in the information processing system 10 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 10. Fig. 10 is a flowchart showing the information processing method in the information processing system 10 according to this embodiment.

[0108] The control unit 14 receives family register image data indicating the family register image P1 of the family register copy R1 transmitted from the family register image generation device 2, and acquires the family register image P1 from the received family register image data (step S11). The control unit 14 analyzes the acquired family register image P1, and generates family register information J1 including family register item information JR1 indicating information about the family register copy R1 and personal information JM1 indicating information about the people included in the family register image (step S12).

[0109] The control unit 14 identifies at least two people included in the family register image P1 based on the personal information JM1 in the generated family register information J1 (step S13).

[0110] The control unit 14 determines whether or not personal information JJ1 has already been stored in the storage unit 15 for each identified person (step S14). If personal information JJ1 has not been stored (No in step S14), the control unit 14 extracts personal information JM1 and family register information JR1 from the family register information J1, stores the family register information JR1 in the personal information JM1, and generates personal information JJ, which is stored in the storage unit 15 (step S15). The process proceeds to step S17.

[0111] On the other hand, if the personal information JJ is already stored in the memory unit 15 (Yes in step S14), the control unit 14 integrates the personal information JJ stored in the memory unit 15 with the personal information JM1 of the generated family register information J1, and stores the family register information JR1 of the family register information J1 in the personal information JM1 to update the personal information JJ (step S16).

[0112] The control unit 14 identifies at least two potential heirs for each person based on the generated personal information JJ (step S17), generates identification information indicating the potential heirs, and stores it in the personal information JM1 for each personal information JJ (step S18).

[0113] In this embodiment, the information processing system 10 is provided in the terminal device 1, but the information processing system 10 may be provided outside the terminal device 1. Furthermore, the control unit 14 and the storage unit 15 that configure the information processing system 10 may be provided in different devices.
