PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new technique that can select appropriate pronouns required in machine translation by enabling determination of sexuality of personal names consisting only of family names, and various personal names included in sentences. PSOLUTION: Sexuality of personal names are basically determined in view of context information about the personal names. Further, sexuality of personal names are determined in consideration of the notation of the personal names. Sexuality of personal names are also in consideration of the sexualization of similar personal names included in a set of sentences where the same personal name may appear. The processing can determine sexuality even for personal names that cannot be uniquely determine sexuality, and can determine sexuality even personal names consisting only of family names. The sexuality determination can be implemented without a comprehensive personal name sex dictionary. PCOPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
