Information processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to

acquire (i) an image including characters and (ii) a character-recognition result obtained by applying character recognition on the image, and

display, to a viewer of the character-recognition result, each character in the image and a recognized character corresponding to the character in a uniform size and at positions adjusted to indicate correspondence between the character and the recognized character,

wherein the processor is configured to:

acquire a certainty factor of each recognized character obtained by the character recognition, and

apply highlighting to a combination of a recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than a threshold and an image of a character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold,

wherein the highlighting is applied not to an entirety of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, but only to a mismatched portion of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, the mismatched portion being a portion determined to have a partial character mismatch with the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the highlighting uses at least one of

(a) a bold type,

(b) an increased character size,

(c) a frame, and

(d) a different color that is different from a color used for a combination of a recognized character whose certainty factor is equal to or larger than the threshold and an image of a character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is equal to or larger than the threshold.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor is configured to, in response to an operation performed on the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, display an enlarged image of the character on which the operation has been performed.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor is configured to, in response to selection of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, display in an editable manner the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein the processor is configured to

acquire one or more candidate characters for replacing the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, and

display the one or more candidate characters in a selectable manner.

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

acquiring (i) an image including characters and (ii) a character-recognition result obtained by applying character recognition on the image;

displaying, to a viewer of the character-recognition result, each character in the image and a recognized character corresponding to the character in a uniform size and at positions adjusted to indicate correspondence between the character and the recognized character;

acquiring a certainty factor of each recognized character obtained by the character recognition; and

applying highlighting to a combination of a recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than a threshold and an image of a character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold,

wherein the highlighting is applied not to an entirety of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, but only to a mismatched portion of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, the mismatched portion being a portion determined to have a partial character mismatch with the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold.

7. An information processing apparatus comprising:

means for acquiring (i) an image including characters and (ii) a character-recognition result obtained by applying character recognition on the image;

means for displaying, to a viewer of the character-recognition result, each character in the image and a recognized character corresponding to the character in a uniform size and at positions adjusted to indicate correspondence between the character and the recognized character;

means for acquiring a certainty factor of each recognized character obtained by the character recognition; and

means for applying highlighting to a combination of a recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than a threshold and an image of a character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold,

wherein the highlighting is applied not to an entirety of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, but only to a mismatched portion of the image of the character corresponding to the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold, the mismatched portion being a portion determined to have a partial character mismatch with the recognized character whose certainty factor is lower than the threshold.
