Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a receiving unit and a controller. The receiving unit receives an extraction-area image indicating an extraction area. The extraction area includes a fill-in area in which a writer handwrites information. When an instruction to correct a recognition result for the information written in the fill-in area indicated by the extraction-area image is given, the controller causes a display unit to display a different extraction-area image similar to the extraction-area image.

Claims (25)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to:

receive an extraction-area image indicating an extraction area, the extraction area including a fill-in area in which a writer handwrites information; and

when an instruction to correct a recognition result for the information written in the fill-in area indicated by the extraction-area image is given, cause a display unit to display at least one different extraction-area image similar to the extraction-area image,

wherein, when the instruction for correction is given, the processor further corrects at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction, the at least one different fill-in area being indicated by the at least one different extraction-area image,

wherein, in a case where the fill-in area is one in which it is assumed that writing is to be performed in a single-character frame, the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction, and in a case where the fill-in area includes frames other than the single-character frame, ask a corrector whether or not the at least one different fill-in area should be corrected in accordance with the correction before the at least one different fill-in area is corrected for each different fill-in area.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the fill-in area is an area formed in a document, and

wherein the processor searches, for the at least one different extraction-area image, images indicating a plurality of documents in which the writer has written information, and causes the display unit to display the at least one different extraction-area image.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of a confidence factor of a recognition result for information written in the at least one different fill-in area.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein, when the instruction for correction is given, the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of an attribute of the fill-in area.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor searches a first image and a second image for the at least one different extraction-area image, and causes the display unit to display the at least one different extraction-area image, the first image indicating a first document in which the fill-in area is formed, the second image indicating a second document of a type identical to a type of the first document.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of a confidence factor of a recognition result for information written in the at least one different fill-in area.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein, when the instruction for correction is given, the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of an attribute of the fill-in area.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor searches a first image and a second image for the at least one different extraction-area image, and causes the display unit to display the at least one different extraction-area image, the first image indicating a first document in which the fill-in area is formed, the second image indicating a second document generated in a time predetermined on a basis of a time when an image of the first document is generated.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of a confidence factor of a recognition result for information written in the at least one different fill-in area.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein, when the instruction for correction is given, the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of an attribute of the fill-in area.

11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of a confidence factor of a recognition result for information written in the at least one different fill-in area.

12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when the instruction for correction is given, the processor corrects the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction on a basis of an attribute of the fill-in area.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:

receiving an extraction-area image indicating an extraction area, the extraction area including a fill-in area in which a writer handwrites information; and

when an instruction to correct a recognition result for the information written in the fill-in area indicated by the extraction-area image is given, causing a display unit to display at least one different extraction-area image similar to the extraction-area image,

wherein, when the instruction for correction is given, correcting at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction, the at least one different fill-in area being indicated by the at least one different extraction-area image,

wherein, in a case where the fill-in area is one in which it is assumed that writing is to be performed in a single-character frame, correcting the at least one different fill-in area in accordance with the correction, and in a case where the fill-in area includes frames other than the single-character frame, ask a corrector whether or not the at least one different fill-in area should be corrected in accordance with the correction before the at least one different fill-in area is corrected for each different fill-in area.
