Book search apparatus, book search database generation apparatus, book search method, book search database generation method, and program
View Patent ↗Provided is an invention for efficiently searching for books used in training to reduce metathesis. A book search database storage unit 110 stores a book search database in which information identifying a book, information regarding a frequency of a proximity number for a mora character notation pair appearing in forward order in the book, and information regarding a frequency of a proximity number for the mora character notation pair appearing in reverse order are associated with each other. A display unit 300 displays a book search screen including a correctly pronounced phrase input region and an incorrectly pronounced phrase input region. A subject pronunciation designation unit 120 determines two mora character notations and a proximity number to use as search conditions based on an input of the correctly pronounced phrase input region and an input of the incorrectly pronounced phrase input region. A subject book information generation unit 130 generates search results including information regarding books matching the search conditions from the book search database.
1. A book search apparatus comprising a processor configured to execute operations comprising:
storing, in a book search database, at least first information identifying a book and second information regarding a frequency of a proximity number for a mora character notation pair appearing in forward order in the book, and the first information and the second information are associated with each other;
displaying a book search screen including two mora input regions for inputting each of two mora character notations in which metathesis has occurred included in a phrase in which metathesis has occurred, and a proximity number input region for inputting a proximity number of the two mora character notations; and
generating, from the book search database, search results including information regarding books in which the two mora character notations input into the mora input regions appear within a vicinity of the proximity number input into the proximity number input region.
2. The book search apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
the book search screen, when a first mora character notation has been input into a mora input region of the mora input regions, displays a second mora character notation in which a vowel is the same as in the first mora character notation as a candidate for a second mora character notation.
3. The book search apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the book search database comprises relationship information among the first information identifying the book, the second information regarding a frequency of a proximity number for a mora character notation pair appearing in forward order in the book, and third information regarding another frequency of a proximity number for a mora character notation pair appearing in reverse order in the book are associated with each other, and
wherein the search results include both information regarding how frequently the mora character notation pair appears in forward order and information regarding how frequently the mora character notation pair appears in reverse order.
4. A non-transitory tangible medium having recorded thereon a program for causing a computer to function as the book search apparatus according to claim 1 .
5. The book search apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
the book search screen, when a first mora character notation has been input into a mora input region of the mora input regions, displays a recommendation of a second mora character notation in which a vowel is the same as in the first mora character notation as a candidate for the second mora character notation.
6. A book search method,
comprising:
displaying a book search screen comprising two mora input regions and a proximity number input region, wherein the two mora input regions respective receives input of each of two mora character notations in which metathesis has occurred included in a phrase in which metathesis has occurred, and the proximity number input region receives input of a proximity number of the two mora character notations; and
generating, from a book search database, search results including information regarding books in which the two mora character notations input into the mora input regions appear within a vicinity of the proximity number input into the proximity number input region, wherein the book search database associates with each other first information identifying a book and second information of a frequency of a proximity member for a mora character notation pair appearing in forward order in the book.
