ABSTRACT:
A logical structure analyzing apparatus includes an extracting unit that extracts word candidates from a form, a first generating unit that classifies each of the word candidates into a group of heading candidates or a group of data candidates to generate, based on positions of the word candidates on the form, first candidates sets each including one heading candidate and one data candidate identifiable by the heading candidate, and a second generating unit that combines the first candidate sets to generate second candidate sets that each include plural heading candidates that differ and one data candidate. The apparatus also includes a removing unit that, based on positions of the heading candidates and the data word candidate in each second candidate set, removes from among the second candidates sets, a determined set including a data item and headings identifying the data item, and an output unit that outputs the determined set.
