摘要:
An information coding apparatus, an information decoding apparatus, and a method and a program therefor are provided, which can represent a large amount of information with a small number of pixels. Information bits which are inputted are coded as a block of a two-dimensional image made up from m (where m is a natural number)×n (where n is a natural number) pixels. Specifically, pixels which represent the information bits are arranged in a code area, which is an area of (m−o)×(n−p) pixels within a code block of m×n pixels (where o and p are natural numbers which satisfy 0

A rotational drive sensor 31 which allows a radiation source 10 and a twomensional sensor 20 which are caused to be in one body to turn round a subject 50. An X-ray vessel 13 irradiates X-rays to the subject 50 in a pulsated manner. An X-ray/light conversion element 21 converts an X-ray transmitted image to an optical image. A CCD camera 23 picks up this optical image. An information processing unit 40 reconstructs a three-dimensional pictorial image on the basis of two dimensional pictorial images in plural directions obtained, and a display monitor 46 displays this three-dimensional pictorial image. A controller 39 controls the distance between the X-ray vessel 13 and the X-ray/light conversion element 21 and the focal size of the X-ray vessel 13 on the basis of the size of the subject 50. As a result, it is possible to obtain, in a short time, a three-dimensional pictorial image having less distortion and high resolution in a broad region, and to reduce X-ray exposure quantity to much more degree as compared to the conventional system.

A case image search apparatus according to the presently disclosed subject matter includes: an input unit for inputting a diagnostic object image group from an imaging apparatus; an estimation unit for estimating attributes of a diagnostic object image included in the diagnostic object image group on the basis of the diagnostic object image; a calculation unit for calculating a first feature amount which is a feature amount of the diagnostic object image corresponding to the attribute estimated by the estimation unit; and a search unit for searching a database for a similar case image group similar to the diagnostic object image group by comparing the first feature amount with a second feature amount which is a feature amount of a case image included in the case image group stored in the database corresponding to the attribute estimated by the estimation unit.
摘要:
In the present invention, unlike a conventional circuit, discrimination is not made by integrating a logical code that includes “0” and “1” to some extent and produced from a random code, but repetition of an identical pattern of a well-known preamble signal added to a head portion of a signal is discriminated when a bit-rate of the signal is changed. More specifically, the repetition of the identical pattern is converted into a consecutive identical signal to generate the consecutive identical signal (having a length of tens bits to thousands bits). Although the consecutive identical signal is longer than a same-code continuation length included in the signal, and is shorter than a time constant necessary to the conventional circuit by about one to three digits. Therefore, an integration time can be shortened to the same degree as the generated consecutive identical signal length, and the bit-rate can be discriminated at high speed within a preamble signal receiving time.
摘要:
In a surgical knife, a slider has an operating part through which the slider is operated. A surface of the operating part is exposed through a window hole of a guide groove and an arresting device for arresting the slider is released by urging the operating part linearly in a direction to be moved. The slider is moved by applying a forward or backward force to the operating part such that a cutter blade of the surgical knife can be moved between its projected position and its withdrawn position with respect to the holder when the holder is held by one hand. Accordingly, a user does not feel pain on his or her finger's when operating the cutter blade.
摘要:
A catheter set and method of use is provided. The set includes an insert, which fills the majority of the inside annular space within the catheter. Only a small space is left between the catheter and the insert, which is filled with a heparinized saline. The insert and saline prevent fibrin, proteins and other material from collecting inside the catheter, which is especially helpful in the Stepwise Moncrief and Popovich (“SMAP”) catheter insertion, where the catheter is left inside the patient for one to six months before PD therapy begins.
摘要:
To provide a novel antigenic protein and a nucleic acid encoding the antigenic protein, which are useful for prophylaxis, treatment and diagnosis of diseases caused by fungi including Candida albicans. An antigenic protein characterized in that the antigenic protein is recognized by antiserum derived from a mammal having Candida albicans-infection resistance; and a nucleic acid encoding an antigenic protein which is recognized by antiserum derived from a mammal having Candida albicans-infection resistance.

Disclosed is a patterned film forming laminated sheet comprising a multi-layer construction prepared by successively laminating a release sheet layer (1), a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (2), a base sheet layer (3), and a patterned film layer (4) or further laminating a pigmented print layer (5), said patterned film layer (4) being prepared by a process which comprises coating a fluid coating composition containing a powdery magnetic material on one side of the base sheet layer (3) to form a fluid film, and acting a magnetic force on the powdery magnetic material contained in the fluid film in a fluid state to form a pattern.
