Solution Overview

Problem

Existing question sentence generators lack accuracy when input sentences do not include characteristic expressions, leading to unclear question sentences.

Innovation Solution

A text extracting system that identifies and extracts texts with characteristic expressions from a plurality of texts to enhance the accuracy of question sentences generated by the question sentence generator.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If all input sentences are entered into the question sentence generator, then the quantity of processed texts is maximized, but the accuracy of generated question sentences deteriorates because sentences without characteristic expressions produce unclear questions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity of processed textsVSAvoidaccuracy of question sentences
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and identifies characteristic expressions from input sentences using a specification unit. Only sentences containing these characteristic expressions are selected for input into the question sentence generator, thereby extracting the useful subset of data that ensures accurate question generation while filtering out sentences that would produce unclear questions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary analysis of input sentences to identify characteristic expressions before they are input into the question sentence generator. This preliminary action of filtering and selecting sentences with characteristic expressions ensures that only suitable inputs are processed, maintaining high accuracy while managing processing volume

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Quantity of substance

If sentences without characteristic expressions are input into the question sentence generator, then the processing volume is increased, but the quality of output question sentences deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing volumeVSAvoidquality of output question sentences
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts sentences containing characteristic expressions from the input corpus and selectively inputs only these extracted sentences into the question sentence generator. This extraction process increases processing volume with high-quality inputs while filtering out sentences that would compromise output quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies different quality standards to different input sentences by identifying whether they contain characteristic expressions. Sentences with characteristic expressions are selected for processing, while those without are excluded, thereby maintaining local quality control that ensures high overall output quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A text extracting system includes at least one processor configured to obtain a plurality of texts, specify at least one characteristic expression included in the plurality of texts, and extract, based on the at least one characteristic expression, at least one text to be entered into a question sentence generator from the plurality of texts, where the question sentence generator generating a question sentence from an input sentence.
