Abstract: An information processing device receives dictionary data, which is to be used in speech analysis and morphological analysis, and text data. Then, based on the dictionary data and the text data, the information processing device generates word HMM data that contains word information enabling identification of each word registered in the dictionary data, and contains co-occurrence information about the co-occurrence, with respect to each word, of the words included in the text data.

Abstract: A method of controlling decompression, wherein the method includes: transmitting, by a first computer that already has stored therein compressed data that are compressed based on compression parameters, identification information for identifying the first computer to a second computer that stores therein the compression parameters; and encrypting, by the second computer, the compression parameters using the identification information received from the first computer. The compression parameters include at least a frequency of appearance and an allocated sign for each piece of character data. The method also includes: transmitting, by the second computer, the encrypted compression parameters to the first computer; decrypting, by the first computer, the encrypted compression parameters received from the second computer using the identification information; and decompressing, by the first computer, the compressed data based on the decrypted compression parameters.

Abstract: A cellular phone and a guidance display program enable an enhancement of operability when operating the cellular phone, corresponding to an event. An occurrence of an event is detected, guidance information corresponding to the event is searched out of a guidance storage unit. A standby-image corresponding to the guidance information is generated and then displayed, and guidance is displayed in the standby-image. When accepting an operation displayed in the guidance, a process corresponding to the event is executed.

Abstract: An electronic device can perform photographing by an AF (Auto-Focusing) function and a PF (Pan-Focus) function, and can give improvement of quickness of the taking of an image by automatically selecting an image, which is taken into the device, from a relation between the AF function and a shutter operation. The electronic device has an imaging part which catches an image obtained through an optical system, and also has a focusing mechanism which moves the optical system to an auto-focusing position or a fixed focus position. The electronic device further comprises a switch and a control part. The switch functions as a focusing switch ordering the focusing mechanism a focusing action, and also functions as a shutter switch ordering taking of an image caught by the imaging part. By this, the switch orders the focusing action or the taking of the caught image.

Abstract: A portable terminal is disclosed and which is adapted to display thereon a plurality of functions as a menu for allowing a desired one of the plurality of functions to be selected and executed, comprising: a detailed menu encompassing various functions of the overall portable terminal; a simplified menu including highly frequently used functions which are extracted from those of the detailed menu and having a hierarchy structure different from that of the detailed menu; and display switching means for switching between said first menu and said second menu to be displayed exclusively from each other. The portable terminal thus constructed is excellent in its operability in particular for users who are aged or unfamiliar with the portable terminal by the provision of the simplified and detailed for execution of readily menu manipulation.

Abstract: A communication system limits use of compressed dictionary content stored in a mobile communication terminal to only the mobile communication terminal. The mobile communication terminal transmits terminal identification information to a communication server. The communication server uses the received terminal identification information as a master key to encrypt compression parameters and transmits encrypted compression parameters to the mobile communication terminal. The mobile communication terminal decrypts the compression parameters encrypted using the terminal identification information and uses the decrypted compression parameters to decompress the compressed dictionary content.

Abstract: A cellular phone and a guidance display program enable an enhancement of operability when operating the cellular phone, corresponding to an event. An occurrence of an event is detected, guidance information corresponding to the event is searched out of a guidance storage unit. A standby-image corresponding to the guidance information is generated and then displayed, and guidance is displayed in the standby-image. When accepting an operation displayed in the guidance, a process corresponding to the event is executed.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus has a communicating function and a privacy mode that prohibits access to and display of data and/or folders with respect to which a secret setting has been made. A storage part stores first contents, and second contents of the data and/or the folders with respect to which the secret setting has been made. A display part displays a standby screen, a call/receive screen or an electronic mail send/receive screen. A control part switches contents of a screen to be displayed by displaying the first contents in place of the second contents during the privacy mode, if the second contents are set in the standby screen, the call/receive screen or the electronic mail send/receive screen.

Abstract: An information processing terminal of the present invention notifies a user that a call receiving sound-level set by operating a rotary operation unit provided on a main body of the information processing terminal comes to a maximum or minimum value.

Abstract: A conversion processing system includes conversion processing which converts a conversion object into one or more conversion candidates, and performs the conversion processing related to time information. The conversion object is a letter or a symbol, for example. The system has a dictionary, a time detection part and a conversion part. The dictionary relates one or more conversion candidates corresponding to the conversion object to the time information, and stores these. The time detection part outputs the time information. When converting the conversion object into one or more conversion candidates, the conversion part refers to the time information. By this, the conversion processing can be optimized, and conversion efficiency can be improved.

Abstract: A portable terminal is disclosed and which is adapted to display thereon a plurality of functions as a menu for allowing a desired one of the plurality of functions to be selected and executed, comprising: a detailed menu encompassing various functions of the overall portable terminal; a simplified menu including highly frequently used functions which are extracted from those of the detailed menu and having a hierarchy structure different from that of the detailed menu; and display switching means for switching between said first menu and said second menu to be displayed exclusively from each other. The portable terminal thus constructed is excellent in its operability in particular for users who are aged or unfamiliar with the portable terminal by the provision of the simplified and detailed for execution of readily menu manipulation.

Abstract: A portable terminal reading text, such as predetermined information sent as an electronic mail message, and/or viewable by using a browser in a convenient or user-friendly manner for a visually-impaired user. The portable terminal executes operations including, reading out a first information; reading out a second information; and selectively switching between reading out the first and second information based on information to be read out. Specifically, the DSP is configured to read out a text sentence using a downloaded read-out in voice program. The sound source LSI which possesses a built-in ADPCM (Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation) function is configured to vocally output a depressed numeric key by using a registered vocabulary. The DSP functions as a voice codec during a telephone conversation using a downloaded voice codec program. Thus, the DSP of the portable terminal is a dual-function type having a read-out in voice function and a voice codec function.
