Study on Enhancing Functions of the System of Writing Tools for Japanese Documents, and Expanding it's Application Area

这套书写工具系统名为“SUIKOU”（在日语中意为“改善写作”），它可以分析一份机器可读的日文文档，并为写作者提供有用的信息，使其更加完善。在这项研究资助开始之前，我们已经在一台个人电脑（NEC PC-9801）上完成了sukou 1.8版本。在本研究中，我们在增强系统功能、便携性、拓展日文文档书写工具应用领域等方面取得了如下成果。我们提高了文本分析方法的精度，即请求项与提取项的比例。我们还构建了一种新的提取粒子（wa）的方法。我们通过调查日语文档（总共约700K个日语字符）来构建这些方法。我们评估了其他日语文献、科学论文摘要（约3M日文）和报纸文章（约20M日文）的方法。评价结果反映了文本分析方法的进一步改进。sukou 1.8版本只显示分析结果，但没有将其输出到文件的功能。我们实现了SUIKOLI 1.9版本，它采用了改进的方法，可以将结果输出到文件中。这个版本已经发布给一些研究人员，目前正在进行深入的评估。在调查了1.8版本的需求之后，我们完成了sui - kou编辑功能的规范。我们重新设计了在内存中保存原始文本的数据结构。新的数据结构比以前的数据结构更适合编辑。最后，我们在SUIKOU 2.1.3版本中实现了编辑功能。为了检查系统的可移植性，我们将sukou 1.8版本移植到IBM 5550和FMR60上。该系统的全部功能已得到验证。我们将SUIKOU的可执行程序发布给对使用SUIKOU感兴趣的研究人员、教师、编辑人员、技术作家等。10多家机构已经回复了对该系统的评论。目前正在对这些评论进行全面分析。他们证明了随口是广泛有用的。少

The system of writing tools, SUIKOU (which means "improve writings" in Japanese), analyzes a machine-readable Japanese document and provides writers with useful information for polishing it up. We had completed SUIKOU version 1.8 on a personal computer (NEC PC-9801) before this research grant started. In this research, we obtained the following results on enhancement of functions, portablily of the system, and expansion of the application area of writing tools for Japanese documents.1. We improved the precision, which is the proportion of requested items versus extracted items, of the textual analysis methods. We also constructed a new method to extract particle (wa). We constructed the methods by investigating Japanese documents (in total, about 700K Japanese characters). We evaluated the methods for other Japanese documents, abstracts of scientific papers (about 3M Japanese characters) and articles in newspapers (about 20M Japanese characters). The evaluation result was reflected on … More improvement of the textual analysis methods. SUIKOU version 1.8 only displays the analysis result but dose not have the function to output it to a file. We implemented SUIKOLI version 1.9, which employs improved methods and can output the result to a file. This version has been released to somb researchers and is now under intensive evaluation.2. We completed the specification of editing functions for SUIKOU after investigating the requirements to the version 1.8. We re-designed the data structure holding the raw text in memory. The new data structure is more suitable for editing than the previous one. Finally, we implemented the editing functions in SUIKOU version 2.1.3. To examine the portabilily of the system, we transported SUIKOU version 1.8 to IBM 5550 and FMR60. The full functionality of the system has been verified.4. We released the executable program of SUIKOU to researchers, teachers, editorial staffs, technical writers, etc., who were interested in using SUIKOU. Comments on the system have been returned from more than 10 institutes. The comments are now under full analysis. They prove that SUIKOU is widely useful. Less
