摘要:
An information processing apparatus for performing dialogue processing. The apparatus acquires text data described in a natural language and stores a plurality of examples each including an example statement and frame information described using a frame format and corresponding to the example statement. A similarity between the text data and the example statement is calculated. An example is selected corresponding to an example statement whose similarity to the text data is the highest from among the plurality of examples in accordance with the calculated similarity. Text data is converted into the frame format in accordance with the frame information corresponding to the example selected by the example selection. Dialogue processing is performed in accordance with the text data converted into the frame format.
摘要:
An optical signal division transmission system in which an input optical signal is divided into N parts (termed as “N-part optical signals”) and transmitted at a transmission rate of 1/N, wherein an additional optical wave path is provided separately from an optical wave paths for transmitting said N-part optical signals, and even if a malfunction occurs in any one of said optical wave paths for transmitting said N-part optical signals, transmission of said N-part optical signals is continued, using said additional optical wave path.

Provided is a injection equipment capable of alleviating the force required of a user to inject a medical liquid. A housing chamber S1 for extrusion and a housing chamber S2 for injection are mutually connected so that, when one of the chambers S1, S2 expands, the other one of the chambers contracts. As a result of switching a switching valve 9 to an open position in a state where at least a predetermined amount of the medical liquid is filled in the housing chamber S2, the housing chamber S2 for injection is contracted based on the expansion of the housing chamber S1 for extrusion according to the discharge pressure of the medical liquid pump 2 so as to deliver a predetermined amount of medical liquid.

R1-Gly-Lac-Pro-R2 (I) (In the formula, -Gly-Lac-Pro- represents a glycine residue represented by the formula (II) below, a lactic acid residue and a tridepsipeptide linked with a proline residue; R1 represents an amino acid, polypeptide or hydroxycarboxylic acid linked by an amide bond; and R2 represents an amino acid or polypeptide linked by an amide bond, or a hydroxycarboxylic acid linked by an ester bond.
摘要:
A sentence generating method and apparatus for generating a joke sentence set having a dual meaning. A predetermined word in a selected first idiom is stored in a W list. A word of analogous sound having the pronunciation same as or analogous with the word in the W list and also being of the same word class as the word in the W list is stored in a RW list. It is then checked whether or not the subject word stored in the P list has a semantic relationship with the word of the analogous sound in the RW list. If the result of check is affirmative, a first joke sentence having the subject word in the P list and composed of the subject word of the P list and the first idiom is generated. A second idiom, corresponding to the first idiom, in which the word in the W list is replaced by the word of the analogous sound in the RW list, is generated, and a second joke sentence composed of the subject word of the P list and the second idiom is generated.
