Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor. The processor is configured to identify, from a character string recognition result for a form, a form feature that indicates at least a field in which the form is used or an attribute of a filling-out person filling out the form, accumulate past correction tendencies for character string recognition results for forms having respective identified form features, and obtain a correction tendency for a form having a form feature that is the same as the identified form feature from among the accumulated correction tendencies, and perform control to display a candidate correct expression for the character string recognition result for the form in accordance with the obtained correction tendency.

Claims (66)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising

a processor configured to

identify, from a character string recognition result for a form, a form feature that indicates at least a field in which the form is used or an attribute of a filling-out person filling out the form,

accumulate past correction tendencies for character string recognition results for forms having respective identified form features, and

obtain a correction tendency for a form having a form feature that is the same as the identified form feature from among the accumulated correction tendencies, and perform control to display a candidate correct expression for the character string recognition result for the form in accordance with the obtained correction tendency.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

identify a form feature for each box of a form in which a character string is entered, and accumulate a correction tendency for a character string recognition result in association with the box of the form as a past correction tendency, and

obtain a correction tendency, for a character string, associated with each box of a form of a type that is the same as a type of a received form, and perform control to display a candidate correct expression for each box of the received form in accordance with the obtained correction tendency.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

identify a combination feature inferred by combining form features identified for respective boxes of a form, and accumulate a correction tendency for a character string recognition result for the form having the combination feature as a past correction tendency, and

in a case where the received form has a combination feature, obtain a correction tendency, for a character string, associated with the combination feature from among the accumulated correction tendencies, and perform control to display, in accordance with the obtained correction tendency, a candidate correct expression for a character string in a box with which a form feature used to infer the combination feature is associated.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display the candidate correct expression that is a character string formed of two or more characters.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display the candidate correct expression that is a character string formed of two or more characters.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display the candidate correct expression that is a character string formed of two or more characters.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display the candidate correct expression in units of words.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display the candidate correct expression in units of words.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display the candidate correct expression in units of words.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

13. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

14. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

15. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

16. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

17. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

18. The information processing apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein

the processor is configured to further

perform control to display a reason for displaying the candidate correct expression.

19. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing an information processing program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

identifying, from a character string recognition result for a form, a form feature that indicates at least a field in which the form is used or an attribute of a filling-out person filling out the form;

accumulating past correction tendencies for character string recognition results for forms having respective identified form features; and

obtaining a correction tendency for a form having a form feature that is the same as the identified form feature from among the accumulated correction tendencies, and performing control to display a candidate correct expression for the character string recognition result for the form in accordance with the obtained correction tendency.

20. An information processing apparatus comprising:

means for identifying, from a character string recognition result for a form, a form feature that indicates at least a field in which the form is used or an attribute of a filling-out person filling out the form;

means for accumulating past correction tendencies for character string recognition results for forms having respective identified form features; and

means for obtaining a correction tendency for a form having a form feature that is the same as the identified form feature from among the accumulated correction tendencies, and performing control to display a candidate correct expression for the character string recognition result for the form in accordance with the obtained correction tendency.
