An information processing apparatus(10) comprises the followings: a document converting unit(22) which converts an instinct document, which is written by each of a plurality of applications and is shown to a data structure of each application program, into a common document(200) shown to a common data structure; an output unit(28) which outputs the common document to a user; an input unit(28) which inputs the operation of the user for the common document; an interface adaptor unit(30); a changing unit(22); and a change reflecting unit(32).
Abstract:
Web page creation and audition of a Web page. More specifically, it is possible to effectively and surely improve accessibility of audition of a Web page via synthesized audio. A content creation system (20) includes: a database (22) used for creating a content which can be listened to by synthesized audio and storing a structured document; and an information processing section (24) for creating a read-up node string (18) from the structured document and calculating the reach time from the start of the audio synthesis of the read-up node string (18) to the moment when the respective nodes are output as synthesized audio. The information processing section (24) includes a support processing section (36) to decide graphic display corresponding to the reach time and causes a screen of a display section (26) to visually display the reach time to a predetermined node based on audio synthesis.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the accuracy of reading out by voice and text mining by automatically performing structuring of a presentation file. SOLUTION: The device, control method and program comprise an overlap grouping part extracting overlap information between objects within the presentation file and grouping the information as parent-child relation; a graph division grouping part showing the objects as nodes of a graph, and recursively performing graph division so that a predetermined cost between nodes is minimized, thereby grouping the objects as fraternity; a distance information grouping part further grouping, when distance information between the object is a threshold determined by a predetermined calculation from a distribution histogram of distance information or less, the distance information as fraternity; and a link information extraction part extracting an arrow pattern showing a link relation and generating the link relation and a link label as link information, and outputs resulting structured data as meta information.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve efficiency in a work for imparting an annotation to an HTML page file. SOLUTION: A page obtaining module 3 obtains the page file from a web server 8 and an HTML file analyzing module 4 derives a tag and featured values concerning a layout. A page group detecting module 5 makes the page file where the layout is the same or similar into a group through the use of the layout tag and the featured values. When the annotation is added to the optional page file of the grouped layout group by using an annotation adding module 6, the annotation is applicable concerning another page file in the layout group. When a user divides or synthesizes the layout group, a distance calculation formula between the pages or the layout groups is corrected by a distance calculation formula correcting module 7 and the result of division or synthesis by the user is reflected.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To create a digest of a document of a predefined layout. SOLUTION: A digest screen display content deciding means 41 selects display elements according to display priority levels of display elements belonging to each region of a document computed by a digest screen display priority information creating means 40, and under the condition not more than a requested display area, decides all the display elements as display contents of a digest screen. In the process, merging relations between regions are also set according to layout information on regions created by a digest screen region layout information creating means 42. A detailed screen display content deciding means 44 decides display contents of a detailed screen according to the region merging relations, and creates a digest of the detailed screen according to control information created by a control information creating means. In response to a user operation, a digest screen display content changing means 48 changes the display contents of the digest screen. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To convert the web page structure into contents which are easy to listen to by voice, and to perform access to web information just as with radio, without navigation. SOLUTION: A target page is acquired from a web server 3, and a link list in a designated target page is analyzed, and the link designation page can be acquired. The main contents of the acquired link designation page are inserted into the link part of the target page by a transcode module 6 and are converted into a structure suitable for voice reading. The target page is converted into a VoiceXML document by a VoiceXML generating module 5, and is subjected to voice response processing by a VoiceXML browser 4. The code input to the VoiceXML browser 4 is conducted by a voice or dial key input from a telephone 1, and the voice from the VoiceXML browser 4 is outputted to the telephone 1.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for obtaining accessibility information in a content of a rich internet application, a computer program and an accessibility information device. SOLUTION: The method for obtaining the accessibility information includes a step for executing an object of the content displayed on a display screen in an experimental environment, a step for estimating a role of the object by using previously prepared reference model information concerning a plurality of objects based on output information output from the object and an object state in accordance with the execution of the object, and a step for outputting the estimated role of the object as the accessibility information.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently transmit information by outputting language information and attribute information included in information to be output to a user in parallel for different user's senses. SOLUTION: A voice output apparatus is provided with: an output acquisition part which acquires the language information and attribute information including attributes added to a plurality of characters or words or phrases included in the language information respectively; a tactile pattern storage part which stores sense patterns corresponding to the attributes for each of the senses added to the characters, or words or phrases; a tactile pattern acquisition part which acquires tactile sense patterns corresponding to the characteristics, or words or phrases from a tactile pattern storage part for each of the plurality of characters, or words or phrases; a voice output part which reads aloud the plurality of characters, or words or phrases included in the language information; and a tactile pattern output part which outputs the tactile patterns corresponding to the attributes added to the characters, or words or phrases, while the plurality of characters, or words or phrases are read aloud, to enable the user of the voice output apparatus to sense them.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a data-editing system for supporting preparation of a screen easy to see for a visually impaired user, such as a visually handicapped person and an aged person, by analyzing the screen easy to see and performing proper correction in regard to an image when mainly screen-displaying a web page. SOLUTION: The data-editing system comprises a rendering part 20 for rendering an HTML document to produce an image, an image processing part 30 for simulating and evaluating a viewing method of the image generated in part 20 based on prescribed visual characteristics, and a result presentation part 40 for specifying an HTML element to be corrected in the HTML document, being a processing object to be presented to a web page producer on the basis of an evaluation result of the image processing part 30. In addition, the result presentation part 40 retrieves a correction method for the HTML element to be corrected from a condition model storing part 10. A document correction processing part 50 practically corrects the HTML document. Thus, the optical characteristics of an anti-dazzle film used for the surfaces of various displays, such as a wordprocessor, a computer, a television set, an on-vehicle instrument board, are improved to be a display screen which is easy to view, in this way.
