  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyouka https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyouka came to mind, but it has a long vowel (ou) the post is missing.

  It means “evaluate”, but in the sense of evaluating a piece of artwork, so my guess is that the author justed ran the word through Google Translate.

    According to this[1] okwave thread (in Japanese) it is used in mathematics literature but generally as a direct translation from English. There is an argument there, saying that the nuance of Hyouka in Japanese mathematics is more appropriate in cases where a specific value is harder to determine and as such is used more often for things like "inequality evaluation".
