An outer surface of a cold-storage container (or a refrigerant tube) is provided with a plurality of protrusion portions or recess portions. A cooling air passage, in which air flows to cool a space to be cooled in a cold storage time and in a cold release time of the cold storage material, is provided to contact a surface of the refrigerant tube on a side opposite to the cold storage container bonded to the refrigerant tube. The refrigerant tubes and the cold storage container form therebetween a cold-storage side air passage by the protrusion portions or the recess portions, such that air flows in the cold-storage side air passage separated from the cooling air passage. For example, the cold-storage side air passage is provided with a slanting space that causes condensed water or ice generated in the cold storage time to be drained along the cold-storage side air passage.

In the context of the early detection and monitoring of eye diseases, such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy, the use of optical coherence tomography presents the difficulty, with respect to blood vessel segmentation, of weak visibility of vessel pattern in the OCT fundus image. To address this problem, a boosting learning approach uses three-dimensional (3D) information to effect automated segmentation of retinal blood vessels. The automated blood vessel segmentation technique described herein is based on 3D spectral domain OCT and provides accurate vessel pattern for clinical analysis, for retinal image registration, and for early diagnosis and monitoring of the progression of glaucoma and other retinal diseases. The technique employs a machine learning algorithm to identify blood vessel automatically in 3D OCT image, in a manner that does not rely on retinal layer segmentation.

A technique for enhancing the execution efficiency of simulation of a hybrid system. A continuous system simulator receives a request for evaluation of an event generating conditional expression for an event to be processed by a discrete system simulator, from the discrete system simulator. The event generating conditional expression is evaluated by referring to the value of a first variable describing a continuous system. Until evaluation of the event generating conditional expression indicates true, the continuous system simulator repeats simulation of advancing the current time by a step time interval and evaluation of the event generating conditional expression. When evaluation of the event generating conditional expression indicates true, the continuous system simulator sends current time data and the value of a second variable describing the continuous system which is referred to by the discrete simulator, to the discrete simulator.
摘要:
A system, method and computer program for generating a sequence diagram that specifies processing among modules included in source code. First, a source code is acquired and then analyzed to generate a log acquisition code for acquiring an execution log. Then, a program including the generated log acquisition code is executed to acquire execution log information on the execution of the program. On the basis of the acquired execution log information, automaton information on states and transitions among the states is extracted, and then the extracted automaton information is converted into sequence diagram component information on components constituting a sequence diagram. Thereafter, a sequence diagram is generated based on the converted sequence diagram component information.

A method and apparatus is disclosed for pattern analysis by arranging given data so that highdimensional data can be more effectively analyzed. The method allows arrangements of given data so that patterns can be discovered within the data. By utilizing maps that characterizes the data and the type or the set it belongs to, the method produces many data items from relatively few input data items, thereby making it possible to apply statistical and other conventional data analysis methods. In the method, a set of maps from the data or part of the data is determined. Then, new maps are generated by combining existing maps or applying certain transformations on the maps. Next, the results of applying the maps to the data are examined for patterns. Optionally, certain strong patterns are chosen, idealized, and propagated backwards to find a data reflecting that pattern.

A diffraction grating of the present invention includes a first block (101) and a second block (102). The first block (101) is made up of a plurality of input waveguides (103), a slab waveguide (104), a delay waveguide array (105) and narrow grooves (106): each of which being filled with resin. The second block (102) is made up of a plurality of input waveguides (107), a slab waveguide (108) and a plurality of output waveguides (109). Since a circuit is cut off at the ends of the arrayed waveguides, a relative phase can easily be measured. The resin has undergone a refractive-index adjustment and compensates a phase error.
