Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a method for generating Kanji reading alternatives for autonomous Kanji learning. The proposed method generates reading alternatives by applying rules based on pronunciation, shape, and semantic similarity of Kanjis. To reduce the number of alternatives properly, we applied an edit distance-based filter to the candidates generated through the pronunciation-based rules. This paper shows the preliminary evaluation results using the test questions formerly issued in the Japanese language proficiency tests, and discusses the effectiveness of the method.
