Abstract(in English) To provide medical information in Braille to the visually impaired patients, we are developing Japanese-into-Braille translating program eBraille for medicine (eBraille-M). Its translation engine named KUIC includes braille transcription rules based on Japanese part of speech. The braille transcription rules other than that for part of speech are word segmentation by using word sense and pronunciations. To include such rules for our program, we developed a statistical learning model to analyze its effectiveness for braille translation.
