    Abstract: An information processing device includes a VSLAM processing unit as an acquisition unit, a difference calculation unit and an offset processing unit as alignment processing units, and an integration unit as an integration processing unit. The VSLAM processing unit acquires first point cloud information based on first image data obtained from a first image capturing unit provided at a first position of a moving body, and acquires second point cloud information based on second image data obtained from a second image capturing unit provided at a second position different from the first position of the moving body. The difference calculation unit and offset processing unit perform alignment processing on the first and second point cloud information. The integration unit generates integrated point cloud information by using the first point cloud information and the second point cloud information on both of which the alignment processing has been performed.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate; a circuit region provided with a power supply wiring, a ground wiring, and a signal line; and a first diode connected between the signal line and a first wiring. The first wiring is one of the power supply wiring and the ground wiring. The first diode includes a first impurity region of a first conductive type, electrically connected to the signal line, and a second impurity region of a second conductive type, different from the first conductive type, electrically connected to the first wiring. The signal line, the first wiring, or both is formed in the substrate.

    Abstract: A layout structure of a ROM cell using a complementary FET (CFET) is provided. The ROM cell includes first and second three-dimensional transistors. The second transistor is formed above the first transistor, and the channel portions of the first and second transistors overlap each other. First data is stored in the ROM cell depending on the presence or absence of connection between a local interconnect connected to the source of the first transistor and a ground power supply line, and second data is stored in the ROM cell depending on the presence or absence of connection between a local interconnect connected to the source of the second transistor and a ground power supply line.

    Abstract: An image encoding method includes, using an image as input, determining a first mode suited to encode the image in accordance with a first processing procedure; using the image as input, determining a second mode suited to encode the image in accordance with a second processing procedure; selecting one of first mode and the second mode as a final mode; encoding the image, using the final mode; and calculating a cost of using the second mode to encode the image. The second processing procedure is implemented by a reconfigurable circuit. In the selecting, the first mode is selected when the cost calculated in the calculating is higher than a first predetermined value, and the second mode is selected when the cost is lower than or equal to the first predetermined value.

    Abstract: A divider control circuit outputs a divider control signal that is meant to increase the division ratio from a first division ratio through a second division ratio greater than the first division ratio to a third division ratio greater than the second division ratio and then return the division ratio through a fourth division ratio smaller than the third division ratio to a fifth division ratio smaller than the fourth division ratio and greater than the first division ratio. Moreover, control is exerted so that the absolute value of the time rate of change of the division ratio in the increase from the second division ratio to the third division ratio is smaller than the absolute value of the time rate of change of the division ratio in the increase from the first division ratio to the second division ratio.
