Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a conversion section that converts, on an relation diagram expressing a logical relationship between a plurality of events, the logical relationship of a designated location into a natural language and outputs the natural language.

Claims (46)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a conversion section that converts, on an relation diagram expressing a logical relationship between a plurality of events, the logical relationship of a designated location into a natural language and outputs the natural language.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the relation diagram includes an event component indicating the event, and a connection component that connects the events, and

the conversion section outputs the natural language in accordance with whether the designated location is the event component or the connection component.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein in a case where the designated location is the event component, the conversion section outputs the natural language for checking whether or not an event directly connected as a factor of a target event is appropriate as the factor.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the natural language is to check that there is no other event other than the event directly connected as the factor of the target event.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein in a case where the designated location is the connection component, the conversion section outputs the natural language of checking whether or not an event connected as a factor of a target event is appropriate as the factor.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 ,

wherein the natural language is to check that the event connected as the factor of the target event is a direct factor.

7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the event component includes an arrow indicating an increase or a decrease of a value to quantify the event, and

in a case where the event component is designated, the conversion section outputs the natural language of an expression having meaning of the arrow of appropriate to the event or the logical relationship.

8 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the event component includes an arrow indicating an increase or a decrease of a value to quantify the event, and

in a case where the event component is designated, the conversion section outputs the natural language of an expression having meaning of the arrow of appropriate to the event or the logical relationship.

9 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein the event component includes an arrow indicating an increase or a decrease of a value to quantify the event, and

in a case where the event component is designated, the conversion section outputs the natural language of an expression having meaning of the arrow of appropriate to the event or the logical relationship.

10 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 ,

wherein the event component includes an arrow indicating an increase or a decrease of a value to quantify the event, and

in a case where the event component is designated, the conversion section outputs the natural language of an expression having meaning of the arrow of appropriate to the event or the logical relationship.

11 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 ,

wherein the event component includes an arrow indicating an increase or a decrease of a value to quantify the event, and

in a case where the event component is designated, the conversion section outputs the natural language of an expression having meaning of the arrow of appropriate to the event or the logical relationship.

12 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays a candidate of the meaning of the arrow.

13 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays a candidate of the meaning of the arrow.

14 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 9 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays a candidate of the meaning of the arrow.

15 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 10 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays a candidate of the meaning of the arrow.

16 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 11 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays a candidate of the meaning of the arrow.

17 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 12 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays the candidate of the meaning of the arrow in accordance with whether the meaning of the arrow is a state or a change.

18 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 ,

wherein the meaning of the arrow is displayed in the natural language using a dictionary corresponding to the event and the logical relationship.

19 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the conversion section selectively displays a plurality of candidates as the natural language.

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

a conversion section that converts, on an relation diagram expressing a logical relationship between a plurality of events, the logical relationship of a designated location into a natural language and outputs the natural language.
