Abstract
To obtain a technical feature from a claim of a patent to support comprehension of the claim. A text processing method, and a text processing device that has a function of performing processing using a language model, a function of generating a claim feature list from claim text using the language model, a function of searching a technical feature database for a technical feature similar to a claim feature in the claim feature list, a function of selecting a technical feature corresponding to the claim feature from a technical feature candidate list using the language model, and a function of outputting a technical feature list.
Claims5
A text processing device comprising:
- a first information processing device;
- a second information processing device;
- and
- a third information processing device,
- wherein the first information processing device is configured to:
- receive a first instruction sentence, perform processing using a language model, and output a first answer sentence;
- and
- receive a second instruction sentence, perform processing using the language model, and output a second answer sentence,
- wherein the first instruction sentence comprises claim text and a first instruction,
- wherein the first instruction comprises an instruction to generate a claim feature list from the claim text,
- wherein the first answer sentence comprises the claim feature list,
- wherein the second instruction sentence comprises one claim feature selected from the claim feature list, a technical feature candidate list, and a second instruction,
- wherein the second instruction comprises an instruction to select a technical feature corresponding to the claim feature from the technical feature candidate list,
- wherein the second answer sentence comprises the technical feature,
- wherein the second information processing device is configured to receive the claim feature, search a technical feature database for the claim feature, and output the technical feature candidate list, and
- wherein the third information processing device is configured to:
- receive the claim text;
- create the first instruction sentence;
- transmit the first instruction sentence to the first information processing device and receive the first answer sentence;
- select one claim feature from the claim feature list sequentially as the claim feature of the second instruction sentence;
- transmit the claim feature to the second information processing device and receive the technical feature candidate list;
- create the second instruction sentence;
- transmit the second instruction sentence to the first information processing device and receive the second answer sentence;
- add the technical feature to a technical feature list;
- and
- output the technical feature list.

7 more elements
A text processing method comprising:
- a first step, a second step, a third step, a fourth step, a fifth step, a sixth step, a seventh step, an eighth step, a ninth step, and a tenth step,
- wherein in the first step, claim text is received,
- wherein in the second step, a first instruction sentence is created,
- wherein the first instruction sentence comprises the claim text and a first instruction,
- wherein the first instruction comprises an instruction to generate a claim feature list from the claim text,
- wherein in the third step, the first instruction sentence is input to a language model and a first answer sentence is obtained,
- wherein the first answer sentence comprises the claim feature list,
- wherein in the fourth step, one claim feature is selected from the claim feature list,
- wherein in the fifth step, a technical feature database is searched for the claim feature and a technical feature candidate list is obtained,
- wherein in the sixth step, a second instruction sentence is created,
- wherein the second instruction sentence comprises the claim feature, the technical feature candidate list, and a second instruction,
- wherein the second instruction comprises an instruction to select a technical feature corresponding to the claim feature from the technical feature candidate list,
- wherein in the seventh step, the second instruction sentence is input to the language model and a second answer sentence is obtained,
- wherein the second answer sentence comprises the technical feature,
- wherein in the eighth step, the technical feature is added to a technical feature list,
- wherein in the ninth step, whether all the claim features have been selected from the claim feature list is determined, a process proceeds to the tenth step when all the claim features have been selected, and the process proceeds to the fourth step when not all the claim features have been selected, and
- wherein in the tenth step, the technical feature list is output.
