Abstract :
A Japanese Kanji name input support system for telephone/telegraph operators (TOPAZ-N) is developed that helps operators to input the Kanji characters of Japanese proper nouns. The system disambiguates many Kanji candidates by analyzing phrases of spoken style transcribed Japanese explanations. This system is installed on 2300 online terminals in Japan for the Japanese Kanji Telegraph service. The service began on February 1, 1994. Telegram traffic averages 100000 messages a day
