The invention relates to optical character recognition and to apparatus for representing characters in a manner analogous to the field which one would expect to be induced on the retina of the eye by a particular character. A character to be recognized is compared with the same type of representation for prototypical characters and the determination made, using an elastic model, of the amount of deformation required to change the field of induction of the scanned character into the shape of that of the prototypical character. Character recognition is achieved by determining which prototypical character requires minimum energy to deform into that of the scan character or vice versa.

An optical apparatus has a light detecting section which detects light and emits transmitted light where linearly polarized light, which is converted by a polarizing section, is transmitted through a subject. In addition, the optical apparatus has an orthogonal separating section which orthogonally separates the emitted light from the light detecting section and a light reception section which receives light which is orthogonally separated by the orthogonal separating section. A calculation apparatus outputs a rotation control signal to a rotation apparatus and rotation controls the light detecting section so that the rotation plane is orthogonal with regard to an optical path of the transmitted light. Then, the calculation apparatus measures the polarization state of the transmitted light, which is transmitted through the subject S using the intensity with which the light, is received by the light receiving section.

When a printing device inputs image data from a memory card, the printing device prints an order sheet whereon are arranged a chart of the image data and setting entry fields for filling in a variety of settings for generating a movie based on these image data. The user uses various marking fields provided on the order sheet to specify the display times for the various image data and the effects to be performed on the various image data. When the printing device uses a scanner to read in the filled-out order sheet, movie data is generated based on the content that is set using this order sheet. The user is able to generate movies easily using this type of printing device.

摘要:
A method and apparatus in which category classes express information content categories that are defined based on object-oriented programming. The information items that are to be collected for each category are set as properties, and an information acquisition method or information process and treatment method is described for each property. After a request input from a user has been converted into a request input format that the system can understand, the request input is classified into category classes, searching is performed, and the information items the system outputs are displayed using the properties of the classes to which the request input belongs. Information searching and collection is accomplished on the basis of the contents described by the methods, and the information is output as comprehensive information in accordance with the request input of the user.
摘要:
When an image is entered from an input means, a line extracting means extracts and smoothes the contour of that image to obtain a tangent line passing through a certain point on that contour. A region with the certain point as the origin is determined, where Hough transform of a straight line is carried out with the center point of that region as the origin. Hough transform is carried out for all the points adjacent to the origin to obtain an envelope. A tangent line is predicted by the obtained envelope.
