A method for determining at least one recognition candidate for a handwritten pattern comprises selecting possible segmentation points in the handwritten pattern for use in segmenting and recognizing the handwritten pattern. The method further may comprise comparing segments of the handwritten pattern to templates. The comparison may return segment candidates forming possible recognition results of the segments of the handwritten pattern. The method further comprises forming a representation of sequences of segment candidates, said representation comprising data blocks corresponding to segmentation points, wherein a data block comprises references to data blocks corresponding to subsequent segmentation points. The reference may comprise information of segment candidates. The method further may comprise comparing the representation of the sequences of segment candidates to a dictionary, finding sequences of segment candidates that correspond to allowed sequences of symbols in the dictionary, and returning at least one of these allowed sequences of symbols as a recognition candidate for the handwritten pattern.

A Japanese-to-Chinese machine translation apparatus includes, a translation dictionary memory that stores a Japanese-to-Chinese translation dictionary; a thesaurus memory that stores a Japanese thesaurus; a translation dictionary searching unit that searches the Japanese-to-Chinese translation dictionary for a Chinese word associated with an input Japanese word; a thesaurus searching unit that searches the Japanese thesaurus for the synonym associated the input Japanese word when plural Chinese words are hit as a result of search, a similarity calculating unit that calculates a degree of similarity between the synonym and the plural Chinese words for each Chinese word, and a translation selecting unit that selects a Chinese word with a highest degree of similarity as a translation of the input Japanese word.

A block data creation unit creates an explanatory assistance block data item in which an explanatory information item is placed on a word thereof in a display block of a specific size for each of the words searched for by the dictionary search unit. A block data display unit causes the display unit to display a specific number of explanatory assistance block data items created by the block data creation unit so as to correspond to an order of the words arranged in the text. A block change unit changeably displays another explanatory assistance block data item according to a user operation to the explanatory assistance block data items displayed by the block data display unit.

A method for augmenting a dictionary of a data compression scheme. For each input string, the result of a sliding window search is compared to the result of a dictionary search. The dictionary is augmented with the sliding window search result if the sliding window search result is longer than the dictionary search result. An embodiment of the disclosure implements multiple sliding windows, each sliding window having an associated size, the size of sliding window dependent on a corresponding match length. For one embodiment, each sliding window has a corresponding hash function based upon thematch length.

On a text display screen displayed on a touch panel color display unit, after a plurality of desired words are specified by a touch operation and it is detected that the touched points are moved downward, an example sentence including each of the specified words is searched for in dictionary data corresponding to the character type of each of the words, and displayed. When it is detected that the touched points are moved upward, a phrase including each of the specified words is searched for in the dictionary data corresponding to the character type of each of the words, and displayed.

The invention provides a foreign language writing support apparatus used for assisting fluent foreign language writing. According to one embodiment, a foreign language writing support apparatus includes an input unit, a dictionary search unit, a word group generation unit, a candidate generation unit, a machine translation unit and a display unit. The input unit receives input of a foreign language article. The dictionary search unit performs a dictionary search for the word in another language in the foreign language article to acquire a translated word of the word in another language corresponding to the word in the foreign language. The word group generation unit generates expanded word groups including the translated word. The candidate generation unit generates foreign language article candidates by replacing the word in another language with the translated word and each word group. The machine translation unit carries out machine translation on the foreign language article candidates and generates machine translation results. The display unit displays the foreign language sentence candidates together with the machine translation results.

In the encoding process, the relationship between the matching length and the matching length code is dynamically changed to independently convert the matching length expressible by the matching length code from one value to another. By using a sliding window in the data buffer as a dictionary, the string search portion searches for states that match substrings in the input data. The matching length extension table is used to store the relationship between the matching length and the matching length code as a relationship depending on the internal state stored in the internal state holding section. The match length encoding section refers to the match length extension table to dynamically determine the relationship between the match length and the match length code as an internal state-dependent relationship. The string encoding section generates a code string based on the relative position of the matching substring in the sliding window and a matching length code associated with the matching length of the matching substring.

The Chinese word holographic coding computer mobile phone input method and keyboard is a phonetic code composed of initials and finals of Chinese characters, and a font code composed of parts, strokes and stroke shapes, and the full spelling, double spelling, triple spelling, font code and phonetic code The encoding system of the mixed input is not switched. Its advantage is that this is a kind of Chinese character encoding that can be used for 26 key position standard English keyboards and 10 digital miniature keyboards and location code bar code word dictionary retrieval. The encoding method is scientific, the keyboard design is reasonable, the rules are concise and standardized, and the operation is simple and quick. It is a Chinese character encoding suitable for popularization and broad development prospects.

An image forming apparatus enables meaning, a translation and an explanation of an unknown term or a term for which a translation is unknown in a document to be obtained easily while the meaning, the translation and the explanation of the term are left as a record, so that the record is able to be used afterwards, thereby increasing convenience for the user. An image reading portion reads a document image; a character recognition portion performs character recognition of a term included in the read document image; an information obtaining portion gains access to a website for performing dictionary search so as to obtain, as term information, information of a search result of the dictionary search performed with the recognized term as a keyword; and the image forming portion forms an image with term information including the term information and the document image based on the obtained term information.
