Abstract:
A cyclic alternative pattern (CAP) detection device includes a memory storing a program, and at least one processor configured to execute the program stored in the memory, in which the processor is configured to: acquire pulse wave data of a subject; derive a baseline of the pulse wave data and an envelope of the baseline; identify a local maximum point of the envelope and determine, as CAP candidate points each indicating a cyclic alternative pattern, a first local maximum point of the baseline before the local maximum point of the envelope and a second local maximum point of the baseline after the local maximum point of the envelope on a time axis; and identify, for each of the identified CAP candidate points, a third local maximum point of the baseline before the CAP candidate point and a local minimum point of the baseline between the CAP candidate point and the third local maximum point and detect the CAP candidate point as a CAP based on an evaluation value obtained from a difference between the CAP candidate point and the third local maximum point and a difference between the CAP candidate point and the local minimum point.
Abstract:
An autonomous mobile apparatus moves based on a predetermined map. The autonomous mobile apparatus comprise a driving unit that is configured to move the autonomous mobile apparatus, and a processor. The processor is configured to acquire presence indices that are indices indicating a possibility of presence of an object at each of different points on the map, select a point for a destination from the points based on the acquired presence indices, set the selected point as the destination, and control the driving unit to cause the autonomous mobile apparatus to move to the set destination.
Abstract:
A robot determines whether a voice is a voice emanated directly from an actual person or is a voice output from a speaker of an electronic device.A controller of a robot detects a voice by means of microphones, determines whether or not a voice generating source of the detected voice is a specific voice generating source, and controls, based on a result of the determination, the robot by means of a neck joint and a chassis.
Abstract:
The present invention is to reduce the time required to detect an object after completion of the rotation of a head or a body of a robot. A robot 100 includes a camera 111, and a control unit 127 which determines an overlapping area between a first image captured with the camera 111 at first timing and a second image captured with the camera 111 at second timing later than the first timing to detect an object included in an area of the second image other than the determined overlapping area.
Abstract:
A display device includes: a display unit configured to display an image; a display control unit configured to switch among a plurality of kinds of content to be displayed on the display unit; and a content evaluation unit configured to evaluate an affirmation level of content displayed on the display unit, wherein the display control unit determines content to be displayed on the display unit based on the affirmation level.
Abstract:
A multi-class discriminating device for judging to which class a feature represented by data falls. The device has a first unit for generating plural first hierarchical discriminating devices for discriminating one from N, and a second unit for combining score values output respectively from the plural first hierarchical discriminating devices to generate a second hierarchical feature vector and for entering the second hierarchical feature vector to generate plural second hierarchical discriminating devices for discriminating one from N. When data is entered, the plural first hierarchical discriminating devices output score values, and these score values are combined together to generate the second hierarchical feature vector. When the second hierarchical feature vector is entered, the second hierarchical discriminating device which outputs the maximum score value is selected. The class corresponding to the selected second hierarchical discriminating device is discriminated as the class, into which the feature represented by the entered data falls.
Abstract:
The image acquisition unit 41 acquires an image including an object. By comparing information related to the shape of a relevant natural object that is included as the object in the target image acquired by the image acquisition unit 41, and information related to respective shapes of a plurality of types prepared in advance, at least one flower type for the natural object in question is selected. The secondary selection unit 43 then selects data of a representative image from among data of a plurality of images of different color, of the same flower type as prepared in advance, for each of at least one flower type selected by the primary selection unit 42, based on information related to color of the relevant natural object included as the object in the image acquired by the image acquisition unit 41.
Abstract:
A sleep stage estimation device includes a subject data acquisition unit that acquires pulsation data and body movement data of a subject, a sleep stage probability estimation unit that acquires a feature quantity sequence from the pulsation data and estimates a sleep stage probability sequence of the subject from the acquired feature quantity sequence by using a learned sleep stage probability estimation model, a sleep stage transition probability estimation unit that acquires a body movement amount sequence from the body movement data and estimates a sleep stage transition probability sequence of the subject from the acquired body movement amount sequence by using a learned sleep stage transition probability estimation model, and a sleep stage estimation unit that estimates a sleep stage sequence of the subject from the sleep stage probability sequence and the sleep stage transition probability sequence by using a learned conditional random field model.
Abstract:
A drawing apparatus includes a drawing unit that forms a nail design on a nail of an object by performing a plurality of processes and a processor that extracts a feature value of the object and controls the drawing unit.The processor acquires information on a performed process with respect to the nail of one object, whose nail is provided to be formed with the nail design, based on process management information in which the feature value with respect to each of a plurality of the objects and an information on the performed process with respect to the nail of each of the plurality of the objects are registered in association with each other and the feature value with respect to the one object, and determines a specific process to be performed to the nail of the one object, and causes the drawing unit to perform the specific process.
