Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a storage unit that stores a first keyword obtained by combining a plurality of words, an extraction unit that extracts a text string indicating a value corresponding to the first keyword, from a result of text recognition on a document image, a detection unit that detects an identical or similar word, as a reference word being a reference of a combination, from a plurality of words included in the first keyword and a second keyword in response to reception of an instruction to newly register the second keyword having a meaning which is not identical but similar to a meaning of the first keyword, and an output unit that outputs a new third keyword obtained by combining the reference word and at least one of a first target word or a second target word while maintaining a context with the reference word, the first target word being connected before or after the reference word in the first keyword, and being a target of a combination, the second target word being connected before or after the second keyword, and being a target of the combination.

Claims (44)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a storage unit that stores a first keyword obtained by combining a plurality of words;

an extraction unit that extracts a text string indicating a value corresponding to the first keyword, from a result of text recognition on a document image;

a detection unit that detects an identical or similar word, as a reference word being a reference of a combination, from a plurality of words included in the first keyword and a second keyword in response to reception of an instruction to newly register the second keyword having a meaning which is not identical but similar to a meaning of the first keyword; and

an output unit that outputs a new third keyword obtained by combining the reference word and at least one of a first target word or a second target word while maintaining a context with the reference word, the first target word being connected before or after the reference word in the first keyword, and being a target of a combination, the second target word being connected before or after the second keyword, and being a target of the combination.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the detection unit detects the identical or similar word based on a result of morphological analysis on the first keyword and a result of morphological analysis on the second keyword, and

the output unit outputs the third keyword based on the result of the morphological analysis on the first keyword and the result of morphological analysis on the second keyword.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the identical or similar word refers to any one of a word having the identical notation, a word having the identical notation except that there is fluctuation, and a word which has a different notation and the identical meaning.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the identical or similar word refers to any one of a word having the identical notation, a word having the identical notation except for a small difference, and a word which has a different notation and the identical meaning.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein a word as a prefix or a suffix is added to at least one of the first target word or the second target word or is deleted from at least one of the first target word or the second target word.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein a word as a prefix or a suffix is added to at least one of the first target word or the second target word or is deleted from at least one of the first target word or the second target word.

7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein a word as a prefix or a suffix is added to at least one of the first target word or the second target word or is deleted from at least one of the first target word and the second target word.

8 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein a word as a prefix or a suffix is added to at least one of the first target word or the second target word or is deleted from at least one of the first target word or the second target word.

9 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the outputted third keyword to be selectable and receives a selection by a user.

10 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the outputted third keyword to be selectable and receives a selection by a user.

11 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the outputted third keyword to be selectable and receives a selection by a user.

12 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the outputted third keyword to be selectable and receives a selection by a user.

13 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the outputted third keyword to be selectable and receives a selection by a user.

14 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the outputted third keyword to be selectable and receives a selection by a user.

15 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 9 ,

wherein the third keyword selected in the display unit is controlled to be stored in the storage unit.

16 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 15 ,

wherein the display unit displays the third keyword in a form of a directed graph.

17 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 15 ,

wherein the display unit further displays a reception screen for receiving an extraction result by the extraction unit and the second keyword.

18 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 17 ,

wherein, in a case where a text string indicating a value corresponding to the first keyword is not extracted by the extraction unit, the display unit displays the reception screen.

19 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the storage unit stores the second keyword and the third keyword as an associated keyword group to which the first keyword belongs.

20 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to function as:

the units of the information processing apparatus according to claim 1 .
