Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes: an image pickup unit that images an image of a face; a first extraction unit that extracts a first image pattern as a correct solution pattern based on a sample image of the race; a second extraction unit that extracts a second image pattern as a counterexample pattern based on the sample image; a learning unit that learns a pattern recognition of the target part based on the first image pattern and the second image pattern; an identification unit that identifies a face area from the image of the face, the face area being an area where the face is shown; and a detection unit that detects a position of the target part from the face area based on the pattern recognition of the target part.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus conduct a performance evaluation test for a vehicle in which an actuator that applies a depressing force to a control member to be operated by a vehicle operator is controlled by a controller. The controller controls the actuator to automatically apply the depressing force to the control member for conducting a performance evaluation test for the vehicle, and changes control of the actuator in accordance with an actual state of the vehicle.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for conducting a vehicle performance evaluation test by automatically depressing a control member of the vehicle to be depressed by a vehicle operator uses an actuator of a vehicle performance evaluation test apparatus. The actuator depresses the control member, the actuator having a first end and a second end. The first end of the actuator is fixed to a seat of the vehicle. The second end of the actuator is engaged with the control member of the vehicle. The actuator is caused to exert a depressing force to depress the control member relative to the seat so as to automatically depress the control member.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an ultrasonic probe of high performance and high quality. The ultrasonic probe comprises a high molecular material having a conductive layer and is disposed between a piezoelectric element and an acoustic matching layer. The high molecular material has an acoustic impedance substantially equal to that of the acoustic matching layer. The ultrasonic probe thus configured can be formed into a slim shape which is easy to operate without degrading the performance thereof, such as sensitivity or frequency characteristics or the like. The ultrasonic probe is structured so as not to cause an electrical problem due to breakage of wire even if the piezoelectric element is cracked by a mechanical impact or the like, and thus a high quality ultrasonic probe can be provided, and noise can be reduced.
Abstract:
A map generation apparatus includes an acquisition unit, a classification unit, a tentative map generation unit and a map generation unit. The acquisition unit acquires information which is a target of an analysis process. The classification unit classifies the acquired information into a plurality of types. The tentative map generation unit selects the types provided by the classifying one by one as a type in question to generate tentative map information of the information belonging to the type in question, based on (i) the information belonging to the type in question and (ii) representative information that represents at least one type other than the type in question. The map generation unit generates a map image based on the tentative map information generated for the respective types.
Abstract:
An ultrasonic probe according to the present invention includes: an ultrasonic element for transmitting and receiving an ultrasonic signal; a signal line for transmitting an electric signal to or from the ultrasonic element; and a ground line for supplying a ground potential to the ultrasonic element. The ultrasonic element is connected electrically with a sensor signal substrate and a sensor ground substrate. These substrates are connected electrically with the signal line and the ground line, respectively, via a cable substrate. The sensor ground substrate and the cable substrate are connected directly or via a relay ground substrate.

A relevant element searching apparatus includes: an acquiring unit that obtains a plurality of data elements; a first producing unit that produces characteristic amount data of each of the data elements; a first classifying unit that classifies the data elements into one or more clusters on the basis of the characteristic amount data produced by the first producing unit; a selecting unit that selects a cluster from the one or more clusters; a second producing unit that, on the basis of data elements belonging to the selected cluster, produces characteristic amount data of each of the data elements; a second classifying unit that classifies the data elements belonging to the cluster into clusters on the basis of the characteristic amount data; and a searching unit that searches at least one of data elements which are classified into a same cluster as the designated data element.
Abstract:
A three-dimensional, electronic components mounted wiring body comprises a flat wiring body, on which a plurality of electronic components is mounted, and which is preformed with bends to be configured into a three-dimensional structured flat wiring body which fits the shape of a base structure on which the flat wiring body is to be mounted. An electronic components mounting structure is provided by mounting the three-dimensional, electronic components mounted wiring body on the three-dimensional base structure which is assembled from base members and their joining members. Connectors having piercing members are used to electrically and mechanically connect the electronic components to the flat wiring body.
Abstract:
An electronic components mounted wiring body (10) comprises a flat wiring body (2) on which a plurality of electronic components (20) is mounted, and a plurality of base members (31) on which the flat wiring body (2) is mounted. The flat wiring body (2) has arrangement direction changing folds (9), each of which is designed to change an arrangement direction of the electronic components (20) of the flat wiring body (2). Each base member (31) has an arrangement direction changing member (37) which is designed to fix the arrangement direction changing fold (9). The base members (31) are joined using joining members (32) so that the electronic components mounted wiring body (10) is configured into a three-dimensional shaped electronic components mounting structure (1).
