Document Area Display Prioritization by Confirmation Necessity
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In documents with multiple areas of varying necessity for confirmation operations, existing systems display all operations in the same mode, making it difficult for operators to recognize the degree of necessity, leading to missed or unnecessary operations.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that obtains image data from documents and performs optical character recognition, allowing for the display of each area's image and recognition result in a mode determined by its specific necessity, using a certainty factor and confirmation necessity information to classify and prioritize operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If screens for performing confirming operations are displayed in an identical display mode regardless of the degree of necessity, then the system structure is simple and uniform, but it becomes difficult for confirmers to recognize the degree of necessity of the confirming operation, leading to missed or unnecessary operations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by displaying confirming operations in different display modes according to their specific degree of necessity. High-necessity operations are displayed in a first display mode with prominent visual characteristics, while low-necessity operations are displayed in a second display mode with less prominent characteristics. This allows confirmers to quickly recognize the degree of necessity for each operation without complicating the overall system structure.
2Reliability
If all confirming operations are displayed in the same mode, then the display system is simple and uniform, but the confirming operation for critical areas may be missed or unnecessary operations may be executed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent differentiates display modes based on the degree of necessity of each confirming operation. Critical areas requiring high accuracy are displayed in a first display mode that draws more attention, while less critical areas are displayed in a second display mode. This selective differentiation improves reliability without requiring a completely complex display system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes visual characteristics including color changes to differentiate between displaying modes. By varying visual properties such as color, brightness, or other visual attributes based on the degree of necessity, the system enhances the reliability of confirming operations while maintaining relative simplicity in the display system architecture.
3Productivity
If uniform display mode is used for all areas, then the processing logic is simple, but the number of steps for confirming operations increases due to inability to prioritize
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements local quality by applying different display modes to different areas based on their degree of necessity. This allows confirmers to quickly identify and prioritize critical operations, reducing the number of steps required while maintaining simple processing logic through clear visual differentiation rather than complex prioritization algorithms.
