Abstract :
In business, intercultural misunderstanding with foreigners has increased in the borderless global society. In order to reduce the risks of intercultural differences and to support intercultural communication, this paper introduces a supporting technology for proofreading Japanese business documents. This technology will make automatic detection of unsuitable expressions in a document possible, by using natural language processing and document analysis technologies. Based on this technology, Toshiba Solutions Corp. has developed a check system for offshore development specifications.
