A Cloud Service that Automatically Determines the Visibility and Readability of Documents

Abstract

In today's world, where diverse people coexist, it is necessary to provide accurate and fair information. Furthermore, with the popularization of various information media and ICT devices, people can easily obtain desired information at any time. However, they also encounter an amount of information exceeding their processing capacities. Companies, organizations, and public institutions that send information must be mindful of the receptivity of consumers, who are the receivers of information, when creating and transmitting information. YOMIYAS is a cloud service that automatically determines document visibility and readability. It was developed jointly by RISO KAGAKU Corporation and the Universal Communication Design Association (UCDA). YOMIYAS quantitatively evaluates information sent to consumers by companies, organizations, public institutions, etc. based on the standards of “design of easy to look at, easy to understand” formulated by UCDA.
