Cross-language information cognitive retrieval has grown in importance as a study area due to the multilingual character of Internet resources and the diversifying languages spoken by users. This paper analyses and illustrates the key characteristics of Japanese literature from three aspects: ideological structure, structural form, and emotional expression, and makes a straightforward comparison with Chinese literature using a number of well-known Japanese literary masterpieces as examples. An important aspect of this literature is that it is full of lingering feelings, leaving room for the readers to imagine. The lingering charm is endless, obscure, and meaningful, which is the traditional style of Japanese literature. It also focuses on the depoliticization of Japanese literature, that is, the relative separation between literature and politics. The subjectivity of Japanese writing, which goes beyond just conveying feelings but involves less objective description, is related to this. The process of cross-language information retrieval in foreign nations is primarily separated into three stages, according to the changes in research objects. Currently, adding a language conversion mechanism to a monolingual information retrieval system serves as the primary language information retrieval solution. Currently, nearly 40% of the global popularity of literature comes from Japan. In this article, the background and concept of cross-language information retrieval are introduced, and its types, system models, and several key cross-language information retrieval methods are explained, and some solutions to the factors influencing the cross-language information retrieval effect are suggested.

The trie method is widely used as a dictionary retrieval technique in natural language processing, and the double array method is extremely good in terms of high retrieval speed and compactness as a data structure for implementing the trie method. However, although placing the double array in main storage is effective for fast retrieval, the size of the double array increases as the number of storage keys increases. Therefore, in this paper, the authors propose a divided double array method that can execute retrieval efficiently even when using a small main storage area and can also further reduce the amount of storage by dividing the double array and storing it in secondary storage. However, a problem with this technique is that the number of accesses to secondary storage increases because the divided tries must be scanned. To deal with this problem, the authors proposed a technique that reduces the number of times the divided tries are scanned to maintain the fast access speed of the double array. They performed experiments for sets containing from 70,000 to 230,000 keys, and from the results, it was apparent that the number of accesses to secondary storage during retrieval for a single key was less than or equal to 2, and the storage capacity required for the divided tries was reduced by approximately 50% compared with the undivided trie. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
