DOCUMENT STRUCTURE ANALYZING METHOD FOR MACHINE TRANSLATION AND MACHINE TRANSLATING METHOD USING THE SAME, DOCUMENT STRUCTURE ANALYZING DEVICE, AND MACHINE TRANSLATING DEVICE

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain a method which can analyze document structure by using a simple rule so that the load of operation at the time of rule generation is reduced by analyzing the document structure from extracted position information by using a document structure position rule and a document structure partial rule. CONSTITUTION:When a document is inputted, position information extraction is performed S1. Then the document structure is analyzed, line by line, by using the document structure position rule 100 and document structure partial rule 200 S2. Then when the conditions in the document structure position rule 100 are satisfied, the same document structure name with the last line is given to the current line. When no document structure name is given, candidates for a document structure name is searched for by using the document structure partial rule 200. For each candidate for the document structure name, it is judged which conditions of the document structure name are met by the current line by using the document structure position rule 100 and document structure partial rule 200, and the document structure name meeting the conditions is given S3. Thus, the document structure is analyzed, line by line, and the analysis is ended S4 when the final line is reached.
