Abstract: An apparatus generates first context data representing a context of correction target text based on the correction target text, and corrects an error in the correction target text by inputting a character string of the correction target text, the generated first context data, and meta-information corresponding to the correction target text to a neural network that has been trained to correct an error in the correction target text by inputting a character string of text corresponding to training data, second context data representing a context of the text, and meta-information of the text.

Abstract: A character recognition method for a moving image includes extracting a region corresponding to a character string included in each frame of a moving image to be recognized. The method reads a character string from the extracted region and corrects the character string read from each frame, based on appearance rule information that specifies an appearance rule of a character string corresponding to the order of the frames, such that the appearance order of the read character string conforms to the appearance rule.

Abstract: A speech recognition method, performed by a computer, with an improved recognition accuracy is disclosed. The method includes: performing speech recognition of an input speech to acquire a plurality of recognition candidates through a plurality of speech recognition processes different from each other for a section having a reliability lower than a predetermined value; verifying similarities between each of the acquired plurality of recognition candidates and meta-information corresponding to the input speech; and determining, based on the verified similarities, a recognition result of the low-reliability section from among the acquired plurality of recognition candidates.

Abstract: A connector includes a housing (10) that is connectable to a mating connector by rotating a lever (40) from an initial position to a connection position on the housing (10). The lever (40) has two arm plates (41) coupled by an operating portion (42). Ridge pieces (44) are on facing surfaces of the arm plates (41). Front and rear rails (22A, 22B) extend perpendicular to a pull-out direction of wires to guide the ridge piece (44) laterally. An introducing portion (26) is open on one end of the rear rail (22B) to receive the ridge piece (44) between the rails (22A, 22B) from a position behind the housing (10). An escaping portion enables the ridge piece (44) to rotate from a position between the rails to the position behind the housing (10) as the lever (40) is rotated from the connection position to the initial position.
