Embodiment for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] [Embodiment] (Configuration of Document Processing System) FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the configuration of a document processing system according to an embodiment.

[0012] This document processing system 5 is configured by connecting a document processing server device 1, a terminal 2, and a terminal 3 to be communicable with each other via a network 4. The terminal 2 is operated by a user 20 (for example, belonging to the sales department) who desires document management, document creation, document content confirmation, and / or document review. The terminal 3 is operated by a user 30 (for example, belonging to the legal department) who is requested for document content confirmation and / or document review, but is not limited thereto. The user 20 of the terminal 2 and the user 30 of the terminal 3 handle, as document information, for example, a contract, and confirm the content of the contract. Mainly, they manage the document information created by one or both of the users 20 and 30, and use the document processing system 5 to review the document information.

[0013] The document processing server device 1 is a server-type information processing device that operates in response to requests from the terminal 2 and the terminal 3, and includes electronic components such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), and a flash memory that have functions for processing information within the main body. Note that the document processing server device 1 does not necessarily have to be configured by a single information processing device, and may be configured such that a plurality of information processing devices cooperate to operate, or may operate by any cloud service. Also, the functions of the document processing server device 1 may be realized within the terminal 2 and / or the terminal 3.

[0014] Terminals 2 and 3 are information processing devices such as PCs (Personal Computers) and tablet terminals, and are equipped with electronic components such as a CPU and flash memory that have functions for processing information.

[0015] Network 4 is a communication network capable of high-speed communication, such as the Internet, intranet, or LAN (Local Area Network), which are either wired or wireless communication networks.

[0016] In the above configuration, the documents processed by the document processing server device 1 are legal documents such as contracts. The following embodiment will be described using, but is not limited to, an example where User 20 is a person who is not a legal expert but needs to create contracts (a person belonging to the sales department who needs to enter into contracts with external parties), and User 30 is a person who deals with the law and has knowledge of contract creation (a person belonging to the legal department who manages contracts for the sales department).

[0017] In basic operation, based on the actions of user 20 or user 30, document information is uploaded from terminal 2 or terminal 3 to document processing server device 1. The document processing server device 1 then manages the document information, and user 20 requests user 30 to review, examine, revise, or propose the contents of the document information by accessing the document processing server device 1 from terminal 2. However, in order to reduce the burden of the work of user 30 in confirming the contents of the document information for user 20, or to support user 30's work of examining, revising, and proposing, the document processing server device 1 generates a questionnaire for user 20 based on the content, type, position, etc., of the document information before requesting a review, has user 20 answer it, and then sends the questionnaire and the answers to user 30 to request a review. An embodiment will be described below.

[0018] Furthermore, although terminals 2 and 3 are shown as single units, multiple units may be connected to network 4, and similarly, multiple users may operate them.

[0019] (Document processing server configuration) Figure 2 is a block diagram showing an example configuration of the document processing server device 1 according to the embodiment.

[0020] The document processing server device 1 comprises a control unit 10, which consists of a CPU and the like, controls each part and executes various programs; a storage unit 11, which consists of a storage medium such as flash memory and stores information; and a communication unit 12, which functions as a communication interface for communicating with the outside world via a network 4.

[0021] The control unit 10 is composed of a processor such as a CPU and is electrically connected to a storage unit 11 composed of memory and a communication unit 12 that functions as a communication interface. The control unit 10 functions as a document receiving means 100, a document splitting means 101, a type receiving means 102, a questionnaire generation means 103, a response receiving means 104, a review request means 105, and an output control means 106, etc., by executing a document processing program 110, which will be described later.

[0022] The document receiving means 100 receives a contract, for example, as document information 111 from terminal 2 or terminal 3 and stores it in the storage unit 11. The document information 111 may be image information such as a PDF with the text laid out, or it may be information such as a text file or Word file containing text data. If the document information 111 is information other than text, the document receiving means 100 performs OCR (Optical Character Recognition) or the like to convert it into text.

[0023] The document division means 101 divides the document information 111 into components of the contract, such as the title, preface, and clauses, and stores them in the storage unit 11 as unit information 112. Note that the clause unit is not limited to clauses, but may also be an item or paragraph, or a group of multiple clauses, paragraphs, or paragraphs that have a meaningful unity. It may also be an item or paragraph that has a meaningful unity spanning different clauses or paragraphs. In the following, clauses may be referred to as "articles."

[0024] The type-receiving means 102, for example, when user 20 requests user 30 to review a contract, receives input from terminal 2 regarding the type of contract of the document information 111 to be reviewed and the position within that type. It is also possible to receive either the type or the position, rather than both.

[0025] The questionnaire generation means 103 selects a corresponding set of questions from the question information 113 based on the type and position (or one of the two if only one is received) received by the type reception means 102, and edits the set of questions based on the content of the document information 111 to be reviewed to generate questionnaire information 114. The generated questionnaire information 114 is output by the output control means 106 and displayed on the display unit of the terminal 2.

[0026] The response receiving means 104 receives the user's response to the survey information 114 displayed on the terminal 2's display unit and stores it in the storage unit 11 as response information 115.

[0027] The review request means 105 displays the document information 111 to be reviewed, along with the response information 115, on the display unit of the terminal 3 via the output control means 106, and requests the user 30 to review it.

[0028] The output control means 106 outputs the document information 111, unit information 112, question information 113, questionnaire information 114, and answer information 115 from the storage unit 11, as well as the output results of each means 100-105, to terminals 2 and 3 in a predetermined manner, and the output information is displayed on the display units of terminals 2 and 3. Details of the display method will be described later.

[0029] The storage unit 11 is composed of memory such as flash memory and is electrically connected to the control unit 10, which is composed of a processor and the like, and the communication unit 12, which functions as a communication interface. The storage unit 11 stores a document processing program 110, document information 111, unit information 112, question information 113, questionnaire information 114, and answer information 115, etc., which cause the control unit 10 to operate as the means 100-106 described above.

[0030] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the structure of document information 111.

[0031] Document information 111a is, for example, a contract, which contains the terms of an agreement between the parties. Generally, it consists of a contract title, a preface, and contract terms.

[0032] Figure 4 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the configuration of unit information 112.

[0033] Unit information 112a is contract title 112a t Preface 112a p It also includes articles 112a1, 112a2, 112a3, 112a4, and so on.

[0034] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the structure of question information 113.

[0035] Question information 113a includes a type / position indicating the type and position of the contract, a question ID for identifying the question, a question text indicating the content of the question, an answer type indicating the type in which answers to the question text will be accepted, and a question type indicating the type in which the question will be displayed. Questions are organized into question sets (question IDs "Q001", "Q002", "Q003", "Q004", etc.) for each type / position.

[0036] The above response types include, as an example, "Free Text," which accepts any text input as a response; "All of them are true / Not all of them are true," which accepts a choice between "All of them are true" or "Not all of them are true" as a response; and "Yes / No," which accepts a choice between "Yes" or "No" as a response. However, other response types may also be set.

[0037] The above question types include, as an example, "prefill," in which the relevant content is extracted from unit information 112 and pre-filled into the answer field; "triage," which is not selected if a question is not necessary based on the content of unit information 112; and "reference," in which the content corresponding to the question is extracted from unit information 112 and referenced. For details, see Figure 9.

[0038] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the structure of questionnaire information 114 and response information 115.

[0039] The survey information 114a includes a question number for identifying the question, an article number for the article to which the question corresponds, and a question ID corresponding to the question ID of the question information 113, while the response information 115a includes the response content corresponding to the survey information 114a.

[0040] (Document processing system operation) Next, the operation of the embodiment will be explained in three parts: (1) basic operation, (2) questionnaire generation operation, and (3) review request operation.Hereafter, the operation will be explained using terminal 2 as the target of operation, but if the operation is the same when terminal 3 is used, the explanation will be omitted.

[0041] (1) Basic operation First, user 20 operates terminal 2 to log in to the service provided by document processing server device 1. When terminal 2 receives information such as user ID and password from user 20, it sends this information along with an authentication request to document processing server device 1.

[0042] When the document processing server device 1 receives an authentication request from terminal 2 along with information such as a user ID and password, it refers to user information (not shown) that includes a pre-registered user ID and password, and performs authentication as a user.

[0043] Next, once user 20 has completed logging into the service, they operate terminal 2 to upload the contract document information and the amended document information to document processing server device 1. Terminal 2 uploads the document information to document processing server device 1.

[0044] (2) Questionnaire generation process Figure 11 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the document processing server device 1.

[0045] The document receiving means 100 of the document processing server device 1 receives document information 111 corresponding to the original contract or amendment memorandum from the terminal 2 operated by the user and stores it in the storage unit 11 (S1).

[0046] Next, the document splitting means 101 of the document processing server device 1 divides the document information 111 into unit information 112 according to the constituent elements of the contract (S2). As an example, the document information 111 may be text data or data created using word processing software, but it may also be image information such as a PDF (Portable Document Format) file, which is a scanned copy of the contract. In the case of scanned data, the document splitting means 101 first converts the document information 111 into text using a method such as OCR (Optical Character Reader). Next, the document splitting means 101 divides the converted text into units such as the contract title, preface, clause, paragraph, etc. The document splitting means 101 may further divide the target document information 111 into units of paragraphs, using units appropriate to the structure of the document information 111 to obtain unit information 112. The above splitting is performed using techniques such as machine learning and regular expressions.

[0047] Next, user 20 operates terminal 2 to request user 30 to review the contract. Terminal 2 requests the start of the review request.

[0048] Next, the type receiving means 102 of the document processing server device 1 displays the following screen on the display unit of the terminal 2 via the output control means 106 in order to receive input from the terminal 2 regarding the type of contract of the document information 111 to be reviewed and the position within that type.

[0049] Figure 7 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display unit of terminal 2 when accepting type and position information.

[0050] Screen 102a includes a contract display field 102a1 where the contents of document information 111 are displayed, a contract type selection field 102a2 where the user selects the type of contract, a position selection field 102a3 where the user selects their position on the contract, and a request button 102a4 to start the requested work.

[0051] As an example, user 20 selects "Confidentiality Agreement" from the candidates displayed in the type selection field 102a2, and "Recipient" from the candidates displayed in the position selection field 102a3.

[0052] The document processing server device 1's type receiving means 102 receives input from terminal 2 regarding the type of contract of the document information 111 to be reviewed, "Confidentiality Agreement," and the position within that type, "Receiving Party" (S3).

[0053] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating the questionnaire generation process.

[0054] Next, as shown in Figure 8, the questionnaire generation means 103 takes the type and position 102b received by the type receiving means 102 as input and selects a corresponding question set 113a1 from the question information 113 which includes multiple question sets (S4). Then, it generates questionnaire information 114 by associating the questions in the question set 113a1 with the content of the document information 111 to be reviewed, which has been divided by clause by the document splitting means 101 (S5).

[0055] This mapping is performed by the questionnaire generation means 103, which generates a learning model by learning from pre-prepared training data in which questions are labeled for each part of the article, and then uses this learning model. As a result of the mapping, the order of the questions is rearranged to match the article, and there may be cases where questions cannot be mapped.

[0056] The generated questionnaire information 114 is displayed on the display unit of the terminal 2 by the output control means 106, as shown in Figure 9 (S6).

[0057] Figure 9 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display unit of terminal 2 based on the survey information 114.

[0058] Screen 104a has a contract display area 104a1 where the contents of document information 111 are displayed, questions 104a2, 104a4, and 104a6, and answer areas 104a3, 104a5, and 104a7.

[0059] Question 104a2 is of the "free response" type in the question information 113a shown in Figure 5, therefore a free response field is provided as the answer field 104a3.

[0060] Furthermore, question 104a4 is of the "free response" type and the "prefill" type in the question information 113a shown in Figure 5, so a free response field is provided as the answer field 104a5, and the extracted prefill portion 104a 11 The text is pre-filled. This extraction operation is performed using a trained model, which is trained using pre-prepared training data where the parts of each clause that could answer the question are labeled for each type of contract document. However, other extraction methods are also acceptable.

[0061] Furthermore, question 104a6 is of the answer type "yes / no" in question information 113a shown in Figure 5, and is of the question type "reference," so the answer field 104a7 is provided with "yes" and "no" selection buttons, and the reference section 104a contains the content corresponding to the question. 12 This reference operation is performed using a learned model, which is created by training a pre-prepared training data in which the relevant sections of each clause are labeled for each type of contract document. However, other methods of reference operation are also acceptable.

[0062] Furthermore, the hidden question 104b is of the question type "triage" in the question information 113a shown in Figure 5, and therefore, it was determined that there was no need to ask the question based on the content of the unit information 112, and thus it is not displayed on screen 104a. This determination is made, for example, by training a learning model using pre-prepared training data in which the parts of each clause deemed unnecessary to ask questions are labeled for each type of contract document, but of course, other methods of determination may also be used.

[0063] In addition, the above screen 104a describes the case where the question type for each question is set to "prefill," "reference," or "triage," but multiple of these three types may be set. For example, a question may be set to both "prefill" and "triage," or to both "prefill" and "reference."

[0064] Furthermore, although the above screen 104a shows an example where "Question 3" is not displayed as a hidden question 104b, a list of questions that have been hidden as a result of the question type "triage" may also be displayed on screen 104a (or by providing a link to transition to screen 104a).

[0065] User 20 checks the contents of screen 104a on the display unit of terminal 2 and operates the control unit to input information into answer fields 104a3, 104a5, and 104a7.

[0066] Terminal 2 sends the information entered in answer fields 104a3, 104a5, and 104a7 to document processing server device 1 to request a review.

[0067] The response receiving means 104 receives the user's response to the questionnaire information 114 displayed on the terminal 2's display unit (S7) and stores it in the storage unit 11 as response information 115.

[0068] (3) Review request action Next, the review request means 105 generates review request information from the document information 111 and response information 115 to be reviewed, and, via the output control means 106, displays a screen (105a) on the display unit of the terminal 3 as shown in Figure 10 below, requesting the user 30 to perform a review (S8).

[0069] Figure 10 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a screen displayed on the display unit of terminal 2 based on the response information 115.

[0070] Screen 105a has a contract display area 105a1 where the contents of document information 111 are displayed, a request details display area 105a2 where the details of the request such as the requester, the date of the request, the request message, the type of contract, and the position are displayed, and a response display area 105a3 where the contents of the questionnaire information 114 and the response information 115 thereto are displayed.

[0071] User 30 checks the contents of the request details display field 105a2 and the response display field 105a3 on the screen 105a displayed on the terminal 3, reviews and edits the contents of the request details display field 105a2 based on these contents, and then replies to User 20.

[0072] (Effects of the embodiment) According to the embodiment described above, a set of questions is selected from the question information 113 according to the type and position of the document information 111, and questionnaire information 114 is generated by associating it with unit information 112 obtained by dividing the document information 111 into units such as articles, paragraphs, and subparagraphs, and presented to the user 20 who requested the review. The user 30 who received the review is then asked to review the document information 111 along with the response information 115, which is the user 20's response to the questionnaire information 114, thereby suppressing the increase in the burden on the agent in communicating information with the requester during the review of the document information 111.

[0073] Furthermore, by setting question types such as "prefill," "triage," and "reference" in the question information 113, and by pre-filling the answer content when generating the survey information 114 (prefill), preventing the presentation of unnecessary questions (triage), and providing instructions on what the questions indicate (reference), it is possible to suppress the increase in the steps required for the user 20, who is the requester, to provide answers.

[0074] [Other embodiments] It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[0075] For example, document information 111 is not limited to contracts; it can be any document that requires a review of its contents, such as legal documents themselves or instruction manuals, and the present invention can be applied to such documents as well. Furthermore, the constituent elements are not limited to articles, paragraphs, or clauses; they may be words, characters, symbols, paragraphs, or sentences. The invention can also be implemented without dividing it into constituent elements. Moreover, the language of document information 111 is not limited to Japanese or English; it can be applied to any other language that can construct sentences from which information can be extracted.

[0076] Furthermore, the above embodiment described a case where the document processing server device 1 functions as an information processing device. However, it is not limited to this, and the processing performed and the information stored on the document processing server 1 may be distributed to other server devices and function as an integrated information processing device. Alternatively, terminal 2 or terminal 3 may function as an information processing device and perform each process.

[0077] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the division unit of document information was mainly set to the article unit and questions were associated with the article unit, but the division unit may also be set to the paragraph unit, item unit, or a combination of article unit, paragraph unit and item unit, and questions may be associated with the paragraph unit.

[0078] Furthermore, the above embodiment mainly described a case where the questionnaire information 114 and response information 115 are output to terminals 2 and 3, respectively, via the communication unit of the document processing server device 1, and the questionnaire information 114 and response information 115 are displayed on the display units of terminals 2 and 3. However, the contents of the questionnaire information 114 and response information 115 only need to be notified to the user by any method, and any method is acceptable. Also, if terminal 2 or terminal 3 functions as a document processing device, it may output to an external display, or it may output directly to its own display unit.

[0079] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the type receiving means 102 receives the type and position of the document information 111 from the terminal 2, and the questionnaire generation means 104 generates questionnaire information 114. The type and position can be received, for example, by the user selecting a specific type and position at the terminal 2, but is not limited to this. For example, when document information 111 is input at the terminal 2, the document processing server device 1 or the terminal 2 may analyze the document information 111, determine the type and position based on the results, and the type receiving means 102 may receive the determined type and position.

[0080] In the above embodiment, the functions of each means 100-106 of the control unit 10 were implemented by program, but all or part of each means may be implemented by hardware such as an ASIC. Furthermore, the program used in the above embodiment can be stored and provided on a recording medium such as a CD-ROM. Also, the steps described in the above embodiment can be rearranged, deleted, or added without altering the essence of the present invention. [Industrial applicability]

[0081] The present invention provides a document processing program, an information processing device, and a document processing method that reduce the burden on the agent in communicating with the client when a review of document information is requested. [Explanation of Symbols]
