概要	[Full paper] [WoS IF=N/A, Scimago Q2] Japanese's quasi-characters iejirushi, literally house sign, are traditional marks or logos for companies. In most cases, they involve one or a few Japanese characters, combined with other, various, non-character symbols. For different reasons as explained herein, quasi-characters have been ignored by character encodings like unifying ones like Unicode or local standards like JIS X 0213, and thus pose an information representation issue for computer systems. Building on previous works, we first conduct a detailed ontological analysis of Japanese's quasi-characters to identify their characteristics, especially their contents and structures. This is a major part of this work. Second, we derive from this ontological discussion possible representation methods for computer systems and conduct some experiments. The experimental results show significant improvements with respect to quality, practicability and flexibility over conventional approaches.
