    Abstract: A temperature estimation apparatus includes: a first temperature sensor that measures first temperature of first part of a target that has a heat source; a second temperature sensor that measures second temperature of second part that is farther from the heat source than the first part; and a processor. The processor obtains temperature-for-estimation data regarding the first and second temperatures that are measured in a state where a predetermined condition is satisfied, the predetermined condition corresponding to a certain state of change in the temperature of the heat source. Based on the obtained temperature-for-estimation data, the processor obtains a single thermal resistance parameter in a thermal model. Based on the obtained thermal resistance parameter and the measured first and second temperatures, the processor estimates the temperature of the heat source as a deep-body temperature of the target.

    Abstract: A sleep stage estimation device includes a subject data acquisition unit that acquires pulsation data and body movement data of a subject, a sleep stage probability estimation unit that acquires a feature quantity sequence from the pulsation data and estimates a sleep stage probability sequence of the subject from the acquired feature quantity sequence by using a learned sleep stage probability estimation model, a sleep stage transition probability estimation unit that acquires a body movement amount sequence from the body movement data and estimates a sleep stage transition probability sequence of the subject from the acquired body movement amount sequence by using a learned sleep stage transition probability estimation model, and a sleep stage estimation unit that estimates a sleep stage sequence of the subject from the sleep stage probability sequence and the sleep stage transition probability sequence by using a learned conditional random field model.

    Abstract: A bioinformation acquiring apparatus includes at least one processor and a memory configured to store a program to be executed in the processor. The processor acquires a waveform signal representing vibrations of a target, the vibrations resulting from heartbeats of the target; extracts provisional heartbeat timings from the acquired waveform signal based on a first time window; the provisional heartbeat timings indicating provisional values of heartbeat timings being timings at which the heartbeats of the target occur; acquires corrective peak timings from the acquired waveform signal based on a second time window having a shorter time length than the first time window, each of the corrective peak timings serving as a discrete correction unit for correction of the provisional heartbeat timings; corrects the extracted provisional heartbeat timings into definitive heartbeat timings based on the acquired corrective peak timings; and acquires bioinformation on the heartbeats of the target based on the corrected heartbeat timings.

    Abstract: A cyclic alternative pattern (CAP) detection device includes a memory storing a program, and at least one processor configured to execute the program stored in the memory, in which the processor is configured to: acquire pulse wave data of a subject; derive a baseline of the pulse wave data and an envelope of the baseline; identify a local maximum point of the envelope and determine, as CAP candidate points each indicating a cyclic alternative pattern, a first local maximum point of the baseline before the local maximum point of the envelope and a second local maximum point of the baseline after the local maximum point of the envelope on a time axis; and identify, for each of the identified CAP candidate points, a third local maximum point of the baseline before the CAP candidate point and a local minimum point of the baseline between the CAP candidate point and the third local maximum point and detect the CAP candidate point as a CAP based on an evaluation value obtained from a difference between the CAP candidate point and the third local maximum point and a difference between the CAP candidate point and the local minimum point.

    Abstract: An autonomous mobile apparatus moves based on a predetermined map. The autonomous mobile apparatus comprise a driving unit that is configured to move the autonomous mobile apparatus, and a processor. The processor is configured to acquire presence indices that are indices indicating a possibility of presence of an object at each of different points on the map, select a point for a destination from the points based on the acquired presence indices, set the selected point as the destination, and control the driving unit to cause the autonomous mobile apparatus to move to the set destination.
