An image recognition apparatus recognizes the correspondence between character strings and logical elements composing a logical structure in an image in which the character strings are described as the logical elements to recognize each logical element. The image recognition apparatus includes outputting means for outputting the recognized logical elements when the correspondence is recognized or re-recognized; first determining means for determining a certain logical element to be correct when input of a determination request to determine the logical element is received from a user; second determining means for determining the correctness of all the logical elements output before the logical element determined by the first determining means and is positioned according to confirmation by the user; and re-recognizing means for re-recognizing the correspondence between logical elements that have not been determined to be correct and the character strings on the basis of the determination content for each logical element.

There are provided a word search apparatus, a word search method, and a computer program product. A words dictionary, and a character recognition dictionary for storing coordinate data of a standard character pattern of a handwritten character and a character are used to thereby search for, from the words dictionary, a word including a character corresponding to one or a plurality of character patterns extracted by performing a pattern matching. Only a character string corresponding to one or a plurality of character patterns is extracted from a search result of the words dictionary to generate a part of character string. A selection of one part of character string among the generated parts of character strings is received, and only a word including the selected part of character string is extracted from the search result based on the words dictionary, so that the extracted word is displayed.

First and second codes specific to each program are prepared. The first code is encrypted to generate a first encrypted code that encrypts the second code to generate a second encrypted code. The second encrypted code is stored in a memory medium. An install key that the user needs to input is made by combining the first code and the second code. To authorize installation, the first code contained in the input install key is converted into the first encrypted code in the medium, and a computer on which a program is installed obtains the first encrypted code and generates the second encrypted code by encrypting the second code contained in the install key on the basis of the first encrypted code. Then, the computer reads out the second encrypted code stored in the medium and compares both of them, thereby giving the installation authorization.
