Disclosed is a service providing system capable of providing an information processing function effective for a variety of system constructions as a service. The service providing system of the present embodiment realizes an information retrieval function, a knowledge base construction function, and a knowledge presentation function. The information retrieval function retrieves information on an analysis target and information indicating a condition of the analysis target; the knowledge base construction function constructs a knowledge database for acquiring knowledge corresponding to the condition of the analysis target based on the information retrieved by the information retrieval function. The knowledge presentation function presents knowledge corresponding to the condition of the analysis target from the knowledge database.

Service providing system, business analysis support system, and method

According to an embodiment, a conference information accumulating apparatus is for accumulating conference information. The apparatus includes a generator and a calculator. The generator is configured to generate a user interface screen either for creating minutes of a conference based on the conference information or for viewing the created minutes. The calculator is configured to calculate a correlation between a written text that is a unit in which the minutes are written and the conference information, based on a predetermined operation performed using the user interface screen by a minutes creator. The generator generates, upon detection of the conference information that is correlated with the written text, the user interface screen enabling a reference to the conference information.

According to one embodiment, an input unit accepts input of an input sentence that is a second sentence of the native language corresponding to a first sentence. A language analysis execution unit executes language analysis for the input sentence. A grammatical feature extraction unit extracts a grammatical feature of the input sentence based on a result of the executed language analysis. A search query generation unit generates a search query based on the extracted grammatical feature. An output unit searches for an index based on the generated search query and outputs an exemplary sentence set including an exemplary sentence of the native language corresponding to an index that matches the search query and an exemplary sentence of the foreign language corresponding to the exemplary sentence of the native language.

According to an embodiment, an utterance presentation device includes an utterance recording unit, a voice recognition unit, an association degree calculation unit, and a UI control unit. The utterance recording unit is configured to record vocal utterances. The voice recognition unit is configured to recognize the recorded utterances by voice recognition. An association degree calculation unit is configured to calculate degrees of association of the recognized utterances with a character string specified from among character strings displayed in a second display region of a user interface (UI) screen having a first display region and the second display region. A UI control unit is configured to display voice recognition results of utterances selected based on the degrees of association in the first display region of the UI screen.

According to an embodiment, a speech section detection device includes a reception unit and a detection unit. The reception unit is configured to receive, from an external device, a first voice signal that is a signal in which likelihood indicating a probability of speech is equal to or more than a first threshold. The detection unit is configured to detect, from the first voice signal, a second voice signal that is a signal of a section in which the likelihood is equal to or more than a second threshold that is larger than the first threshold.

Provided is an orthographical variant detection apparatus which detects orthographical variant candidates with a high precision. The orthographical variant detection apparatus includes a term extraction unit that extracts terms from document data, a similarity computation unit that computes similarity of an arbitrary pair of the extracted terms, an orthographical variant candidate determination unit that determines, based on the similarity, whether or not the terms in the pair of terms are orthographical variant candidates, and a group classification unit that groups the orthographical variant candidates based on a character string commonly included in pair of terms as the orthographical variant candidates.
