 The present invention relates to a system and a processing method for ordering and receiving an order for translation via the Internet and evaluating a translator, and a storage medium. Background art

 Conventionally, when an orderer requests translation, for example, a method of submitting a manuscript to be translated to a translator or translator is generally used. When requesting a translation from a translation company, the translation company requests translation from a translator who is deemed appropriate based on the technical field and content of the manuscript, the translator's schedule, and the like.

 On the other hand, translators generally register with translators as translators and have the power to get work done or to undertake personal translation.

 However, when requesting translation from a translation company, it is difficult for the client (translator) to know the translator's ability and the degree of expertise in the field until the translation is completed. In addition, it is difficult to appoint a translator that meets the requirements, and in fact, it is always the case that the translation company is always left to the translation company.

 Also, when asking a translator to translate, it is very difficult to find a translator who is familiar with all the different fields of expertise. Therefore, it is necessary to find a translator for each specialty.

On the other hand, translators who undertake work through translation companies have difficulty in selecting manuscripts and ordering parties except for special conditions such as specialty fields and differences in the language to be translated.

 Next, a preferred embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

 FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of the translation task processing system according to the present embodiment.

 As shown in FIG. 1, the translation task processing system according to the present embodiment includes a translator information storage unit 10, an orderer information storage unit 11, a charge table storage unit 12, and a control unit 13. It is configured to include the interface means 14. Here, the translation task processing system according to the present invention only needs to include the above-described units, and may be a physically dedicated system or a general-purpose information processing device. For example, in an information processing apparatus having a general configuration including a processing device, an input unit, a storage unit, and an output unit, by starting software that defines each process in the information processing method of the present invention, the present invention can be implemented. The translation task processing system according to the above can be realized.

 The translator information storage means 10 is a means for storing information on translators, and includes translator IDs, translator evaluation data provided by the ordering party that evaluates the translators' work, and translators. Self-data (e.g., name, self-promotion, specialty, translation language, etc.), evaluation points obtained by translators, translator ranks, cumulative translators' points, Stores the orderer's evaluation data, etc., which evaluate the evaluation of the translator.

The orderer information storage means 11 is a means for storing information on the translator, and includes the orderer's ID, translation order condition data (e.g., conditions necessary for ordering a translation provided by the orderer) (for example, Translator evaluation consisting of name, company name, language, field of specialization, amount of translation (for example, number of words and pages, etc.), rank of translators to be translated, delivery date, etc., and evaluation contents performed for translators It stores data history and the like. Charge table storage means 1 2 is for translation amount, language type, translator rank, specialty It stores a charge table that defines the correspondence between fields, delivery dates, and the like. These correspondences are set, for example, such that the higher the rank of the translator and / or the shorter the delivery date, the higher the fee. It should be noted that a plurality of charge tables may be stored in accordance with the translation attributes.

 For example, the translator's evaluation data is checked (clicked) on the relevant part of the evaluation table in the format shown in Fig. 2 output to the orderer's terminal in response to the translator's work, and depending on the input result Be composed. The result of this force constitutes the history of the translator evaluation data stored in the orderer information storage means 11. This translator's reputation data includes quality data that evaluates the quality of the translation, such as the accuracy and smoothness of the translation, typos, spelling, translation errors, conversion errors, spelling errors, and tone (“is, mas”,

It consists of review data (quality data other than translation skills), such as uniformity and layout of “is,” etc., and specialized knowledge data that evaluates knowledge in specialized fields. For example, as shown in Fig. 2, these evaluations are rated on a 5-point scale for each item: “very good”, “good”, “normal”, “not good”, and “bad”. , "Very good" is 2 points, "Good" is 1 point, "Normal" is 0 points, "Not very good" is _ 1 point, and "Poor" is 1 or 2 points. Is done.

 In addition, the translator evaluation data can include any data such as a delivery delay in addition to these items.

 The control means 13 are: point accumulating means 21; translator rank determining means 22; translator determining means 23; translation fee determining means 24; information input / output means 25 for translators; information input / output to the orderer Means 26 are included.

The point accumulating means 21 calculates the above-mentioned evaluation points for each evaluation item based on the translator evaluation data stored in the translator information storage means 10 and accumulates the evaluation points for each evaluation item. The accumulated points are stored in the translator information storage means 10. This point accumulating means 21 indicates that when the accumulated points reach a predetermined point (for example, 5 points), no more points are accumulated. As you can see, the upper limit is set. By setting the upper limit, as will be described in detail later, for example, it is possible to prevent a translator from collecting fraudulent points and promoting a rank on behalf of another translator. That is, even if one translator is promoted by another translator, the system is immediately demoted. However, even if an upper limit is set for the accumulated points, the evaluation points are stored in the translator information storage means 10 as the translator's evaluation history.

 The translator rank determining means 22 determines the rank of the translator based on the accumulated points for each item stored in the translator information storage means 10. This rank is set according to the desired criteria. Specifically, for example, as will be described in detail later, translators that have just been registered as translators are in the T rank and T rank stages. At the rank stage,

Translators who received “very good (2 points)” in the “quality” and “review” items 10 times or more were rated “very good (2 Translators who have received a rating of 10 points or more 10 times are set as A rank.

 In addition, if the translator of each rank loses the total points of even one item below 0 points, it will be demoted to the next lower rank. When a rank is demoted, the accumulated points of each item are reset to 0 points. If the rank is promoted, the total points of each item will be set to 2 points. The rank and the fluctuation of the rank are stored in the translator information storage means 10.

This criterion is merely an example, and other criterion can be set arbitrarily. For example, the ranks may be divided into languages (for example, BE rank for English-to-Japanese translation that translates English into Japanese, BJ rank for Japanese-to-English translation that translates Japanese into English, etc.). In addition, if a C-rank translator with a high level of expertise receives a rating of “Excellent (2 points)” in the “Expertise” and “Review” items at least 10 times, it will be promoted to the BT rank, etc. Any rank can be provided. Furthermore, for example, when promoting from Rank B to Rank A, in addition to the above criteria, delivery time in the past 6 months There are no delays in English-to-Japanese translation, and there are more than 200,000 words to translate, and for Japanese-to-English translation, more than 600,000 words of experience can be combined. Also, the initial number of points when changing the rank can be set arbitrarily. The translator selection means 23 matches the condition of the orderer stored in the translator information storage means 10 and the orderer information storage means 11 with the condition of the translator, and determines the optimal translator. select.

 The translation fee determination means 24 is based on the rank of the translator, the amount of translation, the type of language, the rank of the translator, the field of specialization, the delivery date, etc. Calculate the translation fee. For example, the higher the rank of the translator, the higher the unit price of the translation fee. If the delivery date is shorter than the predetermined period, the translation fee is determined in consideration of various parameters, such as adding an express fee.

 The information input / output means 25 for the translator outputs various information to the translator's terminal via the interface means 14 and the information processing means 100, and processes the information inputted by the translator. Means. Specifically, it outputs test data to determine whether or not it is possible to register as a translator, a test data input / output means for processing the information entered by the translator, and the translator whose registration has been determined can copy its own data. Self-data input information input / output means for outputting information to be input and processing the information input by the translator, orderer output data history of evaluation data for the translator performed by the orderer, output means for evaluation data history output means, translation Translation conditions that output conditions (for example, desired delivery date, amount of translation (number of words and number of pages, etc.), translation unit price, specialty, language, translation comments, etc.) It is configured to include output means and the like.

The test data input / output means outputs test data (test questions) to determine whether or not the translator has the minimum ability to the translator's terminal (such as a computer screen). A large number of test data output from the test data output means is stored in the test data storage means and is output at random. Also, 'For this test data, for example, the method of answer is one-choice, and the translator can check or click (click) the corresponding location to know whether or not to register in real time.

 The self-data input information input / output means outputs a registration table in the format shown in FIG. 3 previously stored in a desired storage means to the terminal of the translator whose registration is determined. The translator inputs data into the registration table, and the input data is stored in the translator information storage means 10.

 The orderer evaluation data history output means outputs a history stored in the orderer information storage means 11 as to what kind of evaluation a certain translator has performed on a translator in the past. This allows the translator to know, for example, the orderer who frequently performs unfair evaluations, and can prevent the orderer from receiving an order for a translation ordered by such an orderer. Therefore, the soundness of the orderer's evaluation of the translator can be improved.

 As shown in FIG. 4, for example, the translation condition output means, for each rank of the translator, sends the work file of the currently ordered translation stored in the issuer information storage means 11 to the translator's terminal. Output. This allows translators to receive orders for jobs that meet their requirements. In addition, as shown in Fig. 5, a list of nominated translations is output to the translator who has been nominated by the ordering party.

 As shown in FIG. 6, the evaluation result output means outputs, to the translator's terminal, evaluation results (results) and histories obtained by the translator stored in the translator information storage means 10. Figure 6 shows the evaluation results for translators with T rank.

The information input / output means 26 for the orderer outputs the information for inputting the above-mentioned translator evaluation data, and the translator evaluation data input information input / output means for processing the information inputted by the orderer. Translator information output means to output translator information, such as translator's own data, translator evaluation data history, rank, etc., and output information to input keywords for searching for translators. Translator inspection to process the entered information Search information input / output means, output information for inputting translation order conditions, order condition input information input / output means for processing the information input by the orderer, output of translation quotation data, quotation to receive a translation order It is configured to include data output and translation order receiving means. The translator evaluation data input information input / output means outputs an evaluation table of the format shown in FIG. 2 previously stored in a desired storage means to the terminal of the orderer. The orderer evaluates the translator by checking (clicking) the corresponding part of the evaluation table. The result is stored in the translator information storage means 10 and the orderer information storage means 11. The translator information output means outputs a translator evaluation table in the format shown in FIG. 7 to the terminal of the orderer based on the data stored in the translator information storage means 10. Figure 7 shows an evaluation table for translators with a C rank, which shows that the orderer can obtain a history of the translators' past performance, refer to the translation content at the T rank, and receive orders for each rank. You can refer to various information about translators, such as the number of times, the number of times nominated, and the delay of delivery. This can be helpful when appointing a translator.

 The translator search information input / output means outputs the search table shown in FIG. 8 stored in the desired storage means to the terminal of the orderer. In this way, the orderer can search for a relevant translator by inputting keywords such as the translator number, language, specialty field, and translator rank. The translator search information output means extracts necessary data (such as the corresponding translator) from the data stored in the translator information storage means 10 based on the input data, and Output to terminal.

 The order condition input information input / output means outputs an input table for inputting order conditions such as a language, a translation amount, a delivery date, a specialized field, and a rank of a desired translator to a terminal of the orderer. The order condition input information output means extracts necessary data (corresponding translator, etc.) from the data stored in the translator information storage means 10 based on the input data, and outputs the data to the orderer's terminal. Output to

Based on the data entered by the ordering party, the translation fee calculated by the translation fee determining means 24, etc., the quote data output and translation order receiving means are sent to the ordering party's terminal as shown in Fig. 9. Output the estimate. If you want to re-estimate, click the “Re-estimate” icon and the re-estimate result shown in Figure 10 will be output to the orderer's terminal. In addition, we receive a translation request from the client.

 The interface means 14 is configured to be able to input and output information to and from the information processing means 100. The information processing means 100 only needs to be configured to be able to receive input from the user and output information to the user. It can be used as the processing means 100. The information processing means 100 may be configured to be included in the translation task processing system 1 or may be configured as an external information processing device. Also, the information processing means 100 and the translation task processing system 1 may be configured to be connected via a communication network (including both wired and wireless) such as the Internet. In this case, the information processing means 100 and the interface means 14 have a normal configuration necessary for communicating via a communication network. For example, when connecting via the Internet, a communication module having a PPP driver and a TCP / IP driver is provided. This allows the user (translator, orderer) to download various information from the translation task processing system 1 to the information processing means 100 via the Internet.

 When the information processing means 100 is a portable terminal, it is connected to the translation task processing system 1 via an external gateway (for example, i-mode center of NTT DOCOMO).

 Next, a specific operation of the translation task processing system 1 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS.

 (Point accumulation processing)

The point accumulating process is a process performed by the point accumulating means 21. In this point accumulation process, first, in step S100 shown in FIG. 11, the number of translator points for any evaluation item stored in the translator information storage means 10 is calculated as follows. Select and read.

 Next, in step S101, the number of read points is added.

 Next, in step S102, it is determined whether or not the value added in step S101 exceeds 5 points. If the added value is less than 5 (NO), the flow proceeds to step S 103, and the added value is accumulated and stored in the translator information storage means 10. If the added value is 5 points or more (YES), the process proceeds to step S104, and 5 is stored in the translator information storage means 10 as a cumulative point. This process is performed for each evaluation item.

 (Translator rank decision processing)

 The translator rank determination process is a process performed by the translator rank determination unit 22. In this translator rank determination process, for example, in the case of a translator of T rank, first, in step S201 shown in FIG. 12, a cumulative point stored in the translator information storage means 10 is selected for each evaluation item. read out.

 Next, in step S202, it is determined whether or not the cumulative point for the read quality evaluation is 5. If the total points are 5 (YES), the process proceeds to step S203. If the total points are less than 5 (NO), the process proceeds to step S204.

 In step S203, it is determined whether or not the accumulated point for the read review is 5. If the total points are 5 (YES), the process proceeds to step S205. If the total points are less than 5 (NO), the process proceeds to step S206.

In step S205, it is determined whether or not the accumulated point for the read specialized knowledge is 5. If the accumulated points are 5 (YES), the process proceeds to step S 207, and the translator information storage means 10 stores that this translator has been promoted to the C rank. If the total points are less than 5 (NO), the process proceeds to step S208. In step S204, it is determined whether or not the total points for the quality evaluation are less than 0. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), step S 20 Proceed to 6. If the accumulated points are less than 0 (YES), the process proceeds to step S209, and the registration as a translator is deleted.

 In step S206, it is determined whether or not the total points for the review are less than zero. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the process proceeds to step S208. If the accumulated points are less than 0 (YES), the process proceeds to step S209, and the registration as a translator is deleted.

 In step S208, it is determined whether or not the accumulated points for the specialized knowledge are less than zero. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the process ends. If the accumulated points are less than 0 (YES), the process proceeds to step S209, and the registration as a translator is deleted.

 In the case of a C-rank translator, in step S301 shown in FIG. 13, the cumulative points and the evaluation points stored in the translator information storage means 10 are selected and read for each evaluation item.

 Next, in step S302, it is determined whether or not the total points for the quality evaluation are less than 0. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the flow proceeds to step S303. If the total points are less than 0 (YES), the process proceeds to step S304, and is recorded in the translator information recording means 10 as the T rank. In other words, translators who were C ranks are demoted to T rank.

 In step S303, it is determined whether or not the total points for the review are less than zero. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the process proceeds to step S305. If the total points are less than 0 (YES), the process proceeds to step S304, and is recorded in the translator information recording means 10 as the T rank. That is, a translator who was in C rank is demoted to T rank.

In step S305, it is determined whether or not the total points for the specialized knowledge are less than zero. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the process proceeds to step S306. If the accumulated points are less than 0 (YES), step S 304 To the translator information recording means 10 as the T rank. In other words, translators who were in the C rank are demoted to the Τ rank.

 In step S306, it is determined whether or not the number of times two points have been obtained in the quality evaluation is 10 or more. If the number of points obtained is 2 or more (Υ Υ S), the process proceeds to step S307. If the number of points earned is less than 10 (NO), the game ends. That is, it remains at C rank. In step S307, it is determined whether or not the number of times that two points have been obtained in the review evaluation is 10 or more. If the number of points acquired is 2 or more (Y E S), the process proceeds to step S 308, and the translator is stored in the translator information storage means 10 as B rank. That is, it is promoted to B rank. If the number of points earned is less than 10 (NO), the game ends. That is, it remains at C rank.

 In the case of a B-ranked translator, in step S401 shown in FIG. 14, the translator information 累 the cumulative points and the evaluation points stored in the self-memory means 10 are selected and read for each evaluation item. .

 Next, in step S402, it is determined whether or not the total points for the quality evaluation are less than zero. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the flow advances to step S403. If the total point is less than 0 (Y E S), the process proceeds to step S 404, where it is recorded in the translator information recording means 10 as the C rank. That is, a translator who was B rank is demoted to C rank.

 In step S403, it is determined whether or not the total points for the review are less than zero. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the process proceeds to step S405. If the total points are less than 0 (Y E S), the process proceeds to step S 404, where the C rank is recorded in the translator information recording means 10. In other words, translators who were in B rank are demoted to C rank.

In the case of 405, the accumulated points for the specialized knowledge are less than 0. It is determined whether or not. If the accumulated points are 0 or more (NO), the process proceeds to step S406. If the accumulated points are less than 0 (YES) ', the flow advances to step S404 to be recorded in the translator information recording means 10 as the C rank. That is, a translator who was in B rank is demoted to C rank.

 In step S406, it is determined whether or not the number of times two points have been obtained in the quality evaluation is 10 or more. If the number of points obtained is 2 or more (Y E S), the process proceeds to step S 407. If the number of points earned is less than 10 (NO), the game ends. That is, it remains at B rank. In step S407, it is determined whether or not the number of times that two points have been obtained in the review evaluation is 10 or more. If the number of points obtained is 2 or more (Y E S), the process proceeds to step S 408. If the number of points earned is less than 10 (NO), the game ends. That is, it remains at B rank. In step S408, it is determined whether or not the number of times of obtaining two points in the expert knowledge evaluation is 10 or more. If the number of points obtained is 2 or more (Y E S), the process proceeds to step S 408, and the translator is stored in the translator information storage means 10 as rank A. That is, it is promoted to A rank. If the number of points earned is less than 10 (NO), the game ends. That is, it remains at B rank.

 The ranking for each translator may be determined for each language such as English translation, English-Japanese translation, Japanese-German translation, German-Japanese translation, etc. English translation, English-Japanese translation in the chemical field, Japanese-English translation in the mechanical field, English translation in the mechanical field, etc.). In addition, the parameters of the criterion can be arbitrarily determined.
