Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the converting efficiency by adding virtual end voice information only to a word component comprising only the initial voice and the medium voice as to an index word of a Hungle Kanji dictionary and an inputted Hungle character to eliminate the conversion of unnecessary words. CONSTITUTION:A Hungle element constituting a desired Hungle character is inputted from an input section 1. The inputted Hungle element is transmitted to a sectioning section 4 via an input buffer 2 and a component discriminating section 3. The sectioning section 4 applies sectioning at each block of components consti tuting one Hungle character according to a prescribed rule and the virtual end voice information is added by a virtual end voice information additing section 5 to the component in the block comprising only the initial voice and the medium voice. Thus, the components of the initial voice/medium voice and end voice section in this way is transmitted to a Hungle character conversion section 6 and a component storage 12, where the character is converted into a desired Hungle character code. The unnecessary words are not converted and the converting efficiency is improved by adding the virtual end voice information in such a way.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a Hangul-to-Kanji conversion method for converting Hangul characters (Korean characters) input using Hangul elements into Kanji.

[Background of the Invention] As is well known, Hangul has a total of 24 phonetic elements consisting of 14 consonants and 10 vowels shown in Figure 1 as its most basic constituent units, and these basic Compound consonants and compound vowels, which are combinations of elements, are used as quasi-elements, and Hangul characters can be constructed by combining these elements based on predetermined composition rules.

For example, five elements rEJ "-" that are input sequentially
``F''``Old''``H'' comes from two Hangul letters r-
These Hangul characters are characters that correspond to one of the Kanji characters, ``JJr 古'' and ``H''. Since one Hangul character corresponds to one Kanji character in this way, a Hangul-Kanji conversion method is being considered in which Hangul characters are input and converted into Kanji. Conventional Hangul-kanji conversion methods (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 1983
129175) will be explained using FIG. 2. In addition, the Hangul element on Bi1 Myeong is E, the first market is S,
The middle angle is represented by ``O'', the final angle is represented by ``U'', the Hangul character consisting of the above-mentioned components is represented by ``1'', and the Chinese character corresponding to the above-mentioned Hangul character is represented by ``K''.

(1) Hangul elements Ez and E2 that constitute a desired Hangul character as shown in FIG. 2 (a).

Input E3, E4, Es, etc. in sequence.

(2) The input Hangul element information is sequentially determined as Hatsuichi S, Nakaza T, and degenerate U as in <口）. (
For example, in Hangul element [+, E
4 and Ea correspond to Hatsuichi S1 and 82.83, respectively, and Hangul elements E2 and Es.

Es corresponds to the middle angle T+, T2, and T3, respectively, Hangul elements E3, Es, and E7, and Ell corresponds to the final angle U.
+, U2, and U3, respectively.

(3) 8th Next is the first city that makes up one Hangul character.

Automatically divides Nakaza, Degenerate or Hatsuichi, and Nakaza into one block. The division determines whether or not a middle angle is input in the next block, and if a middle angle is input, the previous block's Hatsuichi, Nakaza, degeneracy, first birth, and Nakaza are treated as one block and the division is performed. In (b), when the Hangul element E5 is input, it is determined that the element is a medium angle T2, and thereby the constituent elements S+T+Ul are divided into blocks constituting one Hangul character. Similarly, by determining the middle angle T3, the constituent elements 32 T2 U2 are divided into one block.

(4) At the same time as the blocks constituting one Hangul character are divided as described above, each divided block is sequentially converted into Hangul characters based on the constituent elements in the block.

3-(3) As shown in FIG. 2 (c), the Hangul character elements (E) to be converted are sequentially input.

) is input, Hangul to Kanji conversion is performed by subsequently instructing conversion. When conversion is commanded, the unconverted part E of the Hangul element shown in (c)
8 E9 Convert Em to Hangul character H3 and convert it to Figure 2 (
Hangul-kanji conversion is performed using the Hangul characters HI82H3 shown in (d) as a conversion target.

(6) The Hangul Kanji dictionary is composed of heading edicts consisting of the constituent elements of Hangul characters as shown in FIG. 3, and notation characters storing the Chinese characters corresponding to the heading edicts. Each component S of Hangul character H+82Ha to be converted
+T, Ul 82 T2 U283 T3 A search is performed using the longest match method using U3 as a headword (part a in Figure 3). As a result, as shown in FIG. 2 (e), 3 is searched for the notation character (kanji) KIK2 and conversion is performed.

[Problems with Background Art] However, in the conventional Hangul-kanji conversion method, if the desired kanji is not registered in the dictionary in the 4-longest match method, the next longest header edict is searched for conversion. For example, if 3 is not registered in the dictionary for the notation character KI K2, a new break is made as shown in Figure 2 (F), and the last element E in Figure 2 (0) is
S+ T+ Ul 82 excluding IO(LJ:] )
A search is performed using T2 U283 T3 (section 3 in Figure 3) as a conversion target. Here, if the notation character KIK2 or NI3 is searched and converted, subsequent input can be performed smoothly by simply reconverting the unconverted part, but the entry word allows the notation character shown in (g) to be changed. If 7 is found in 4K6, conversion efficiency will decrease because the conversion operation must be performed again or input must be made again. Also, in the above example, the delimiter is Hatsuichi.

If you divide the search into multiples of 3 according to Nakaza and degeneracy, you can find the notation character K that matches the Hangul character division.
Conversion efficiency can be improved because the search is performed in the order of IK2 or 1, but as mentioned above, some Hangul characters consist only of first birth and middle za,
Problems arise with the simple separation method described above.

[Summary of the Invention] A Hangul-Kanji conversion method that inputs a plurality of Hangul elements and searches for corresponding Kanji from a Hangul-Kanji dictionary using the first city, middle seat, and degenerate information as headings. The Hangul Kanji dictionary stores the heading 8H containing the Hangul characters consisting of ``first birth'' and ``nakaza'' with virtual end information added, and automatically determines the first market based on the information of a plurality of Hangul elements that are sequentially input. , Nakaza, and degeneracy, as well as the first birth, Nakaza, which makes up one Hangul character.

Determine whether the final birth, first birth, or Nakaza are one block, and if you have determined the delimitation between only the first birth or Nakaza, the first birth,
To provide a Hangul-Kanji conversion method that adds virtual final use information to Nakaza information, synthesizes Hangul characters one by one, and performs Hangul-Kanji conversion based on constituent elements corresponding to the Hangul characters to be converted. It is.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the Hangul Kanji dictionary according to the present invention. The Hangul kanji dictionary of the present invention has the first sound in the conventional Hangul kanji dictionary.

For headwords containing Hangul characters consisting only of middle-sized characters,
It is characterized by adding and storing virtual end-of-life information indicated by ◎. As a result, for example, the longest match method can be used as shown in Figure 2 (
) When a break is made like this, the heading candy S+
By using T+ Ul 82 T2 U2S3T3 as a headword, in the conventional Hangul Kanji dictionary, 4 K6KV is searched as a written character, but in the present invention, the headword is virtual terminal information such as S+T1Ul 82 T2 U283 T2O◎ is added, so 4, 6, and 7 will not be searched for in the written characters. After that, the search is repeated based on the longest match, and S+ T+ Ul 82 T
When 2U2 is used as a headword, the notation characters KIK2 are searched and converted. Therefore, characters that match the Hangul delimiter are sequentially searched, and unnecessary words can be avoided.

[Embodiments of the invention] An embodiment of the present invention will be described using FIG. 5.

Conversion position storage unit 13. 15 is a Hangul-kanji dictionary to which virtual terminus information has been added as shown in FIG. 4; 17 is a document data storage consisting of a floppy disk, magnetic disk, etc. Department.

Next, the operation will be explained.

Hangul elements constituting a desired Hangul character are input through the input unit 1. The input Hangul elements are temporarily stored in the input buffer 2.

The component discriminator 3 sequentially reads the Hangul elements from the input buffer 72, discriminates whether they are first born, middle born, or degenerate, and sends them to the delimiter 4. The dividing unit 4 divides the determined Hangul elements into blocks of constituent elements constituting one Hangul character according to the predetermined rules as described above. In addition, the delimiter 4 determines whether the constituent elements in the block consist only of first births and middle births, and makes first voices.

For objects consisting only of medium angles, the virtual degeneracy information addition unit 5
Virtual termination information is added. The Hatsuichi, Nakaza, and Degenerate components thus separated are sent to the Hangul character conversion section 6 and the component storage section 12. The Hangul character conversion unit 6 converts the component into a desired Hangul character code by referring to the Hangul character conversion table. and,
The Hangul character code is sent to the output conversion section 8, and the Hangul character pattern corresponding to the Hangul character code is read out from the character generator 9 and displayed on the display device of the output section 10, etc.

By inputting a Hangul character element to be converted from the input unit 1 and then instructing conversion, the unconverted Hangul element temporarily stored in the input buffer 72 is transferred to the component discriminating unit 31 delimiting unit 4. Virtual termination news addition section 5
It is identified and separated according to the above, and is displayed on the display device and stored in the component storage unit 12 as described above. The components stored in the component storage section 12 are sent as headwords to the conversion position storage section 13, and the headwords to be converted are sent to the search section 14. The search unit 14 sequentially reads out the headword to be converted and the headword in the Hangul-Kanji dictionary 15 and performs a search. If the index candy matches in the determination section 16, the Kanji code of the notation character corresponding to the index word is sent to the output conversion section 8. The output conversion section 8 reads out the Kanji pattern corresponding to the Kanji code from the character generator 9, converts the Hangul characters to be converted among the already displayed Hangul characters into the searched Kanji characters, and displays them on the output section 10. On the other hand, the determination unit 1
6, if the headwords of the predetermined length do not match, or if the converted kanji is not the desired one and a conversion command is issued again, the headword to be converted stored in the conversion position storage unit 13 The length of the kanji is shortened by one character and the above operation is performed. When the desired kanji is obtained in this way, the next element is input.

Further, a detailed explanation will be given using FIG. 6.

(a) The Hangul elements that are sequentially input are stored in the input buffer 2 and displayed on the output section 1o, which is a display device such as a CRT.

(b) When the Nakaza element "Gaku" is input, the constituent elements constituting one Hangul character are stored in the constituent element storage unit 12, and the Hangul conversion unit 6 converts them into Hangul characters composed of the constituent elements. .

11- Then, predetermined Hangul elements are converted into Hangul characters and displayed on the output unit 10 as shown in the figure.

(c) The next Hangul element is input and the output section 10
The Hangul element you entered will be displayed. At this time, the component storage section 12 and the Hangul conversion section 6 do not change.

(d) Next, by issuing a conversion command, the constituent elements of Hangul characters composed of the remaining Hangul elements are stored in the constituent element storage unit 12, and the Hangul converting unit 6 converts them into Hangul characters composed of the constituent elements. , temporary output section 1
Displayed as 0. At the same time, the Hangul-kanji converter 11
A search is performed using the constituent elements in the constituent element storage section 12 as headwords, and the searched Chinese characters are converted into Hangul characters displayed on the temporary output section 10 and displayed. Furthermore, by issuing a conversion command, homophones are displayed.

(e) If there is no homophone, the next search is performed using the longest match method, and the searched Chinese characters are converted into the corresponding Hangul characters and displayed as shown in the figure (12-).

As described above, the created document data is stored in the document data storage section 17, and can be printed on a printing device such as the printer 6 of the output section 10 by issuing a print command from the input section 1.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention adds virtual degeneracy information to headwords in a Hangul-kanji dictionary and input Hangul characters whose constituent elements are only Hatsuichi and Nakaza. Conversion is performed according to the delimitation of Hangul characters,
Since unnecessary words are not converted, conversion efficiency can be improved.
