A data creating apparatus extracts meta data about a topic from a document, the meta data including at least one linguistic expression about a behavior, a plurality of the linguistic expressions having a first modification relation. The data creating apparatus converts the linguistic expressions included in the behavioral meta data into each class, based on a behavior ontology that is expressed by a graph where the linguistic expression about a behavior is an instance and a concept of the instance is a class to create behavior map data that represents each of the classes converted and also representing a second modification relation among the classes as a link.

According to one embodiment, an action history search device receives an inquiry from a user and outputs a inquirty time and a target of inquiry, decides a range for searching action history information representing history of the user's action together with a time of the user's action using the target of inquiry, and calculates an elapsed time from the time of the user's action within the range to the inquiry time. The device judges using the elapsed time and a narrowing-down model a probability on each response candidate to the inquiry based on the history of the action within the range. The narrowing-down model is used for judging according to the elapsed time the probability that the response candidate to the inquiry obtained from the history of the action is the user's desired response. The device outputs the response candidate according to the probability.

An alignment apparatus and a program that improve the accuracy of alignment between two radiation images are provided. For each of portions of the two radiation images, evaluation means calculates an evaluation value that evaluates an amount of positional shift regarding a tissue radiographed in the radiation images, and search condition setting means sets for each of the portions a condition of search for corresponding positions between the two radiation images based on the evaluation value. According to the search condition having been set, alignment means searches for the corresponding positions between the two radiation images, and aligns the two images by warping at least one of the radiation images.

The present invention relates to a radiation image processing apparatus and a processing method. A processing condition selector selects from a processing condition memory a processing condition for extraction or removal of a specific object in radiation image information. The processing condition includes two different image capturing conditions which are provided to a radiation source controller. The radiation source controller controls a radiation source with each image capturing condition to apply radiation to a subject and a solid-state radiation detector stores radiation image information of the subject. An image processor performs a weighted subtraction using stored radiation image information in accordance with the processing condition to achieve extraction or removal of the specific object. The resultant radiation image information is displayed on a display unit.

A program diagram preparing apparatus includes a storage unit configured to store program information items about a plurality of programs, a calculating unit configured to designate one of the programs as a center program and each of the other programs as first related programs, and to calculate first relativities between the center program and each of the first related programs from various aspects, and a diagram preparing unit configured to prepare a diagram that has a center node representing the center program, a first related node representing the first related program corresponding to the first relativity greater than a preset threshold value, and a first link connecting the center node and the first related node and being able to change in at least one of (a) length, (b) thickness and (c) color density in accordance with the first relativity.
摘要:
In a negotiation performed among a plurality of inferring units that are mutually connected through a network, at any time of which a consistent inferred state is obtained, the inferred state is accepted by the units as a settled inferred state. Since each inferring unit can perform an inference based on the settled inferred state, the inference can be effectively performed. Particularly, when a negotiation is hierarchically performed (hierarchical negotiation) or when a plurality of negotiations are performed in parallel (multi-negotiation), each negotiation can be consistently effected. In addition, in a negotiating process, each inferring unit negotiates with other inferring units using negotiation strategies having a standpoint of priority (role) and tolerance (transaction) of a request in the negotiation. In addition, each inferring unit autonomously changes the negotiation strategies for use corresponding to the negotiation history, the current internal state, and the current external state. Thus, proper negotiation strategies can be used for a complicated problem. Consequently, a negotiation can be easily effected.

A shadow mask assembling apparatus assembles an election beam selection mask for a color cathode ray tube by welding a mask sheet to a frame. The electron beam selection mask assembling apparatus comprises: a bed; a frame support for supporting the frame on the bed with the mask sheet support surfaces of the support members facing upward; a frame positioner for positioning the frame on the frame support; a mask sheet positioner for positioning the mask sheet on the support members of the frame; a fixer for fixing the mask sheet in place on the mask sheet support surfaces of the support members of the frame; a mask sheet support for supporting the central portion and peripheral portions extending beyond the support members of the frame of the mask sheet; and an attaching structure for attaching the mask sheet to the mask sheet support surfaces of the support members of the frame.
