摘要:
When groups of coordinates of face areas respectively contained in mutually different frames are within a predetermined error range, a face attribute assigning unit assigns mutually the same face attribute value to each of the face areas. In the case where a difference in the feature amounts between the frames is within a predetermined error range, a similar shot detecting unit detects that the shots from which the frames have respectively been extracted are similar shots to each of which mutually the same shot attribute value is assigned. In the case where it is judged that face areas that respectively appear in the frames contained in the similar shots and to which mutually different face attribute values have respectively been assigned represent the face of mutually the same person, the face attribute re-assigning unit assigns mutually the same face attribute value to each of the face areas.

A video processing apparatus calculates displayed time of two input segments having a telop area in a video on the basis of a time displayed area, determines whether or not the two input segments are a series of scene segments on the basis of the two displayed times, and outputs the two input segments determined as the series of scene segments as an output segment.

摘要:
Shot groups that include face areas and satisfy a predetermined criterion are selected out of shot groups that are sets of similar shots. Face areas included in the same shot group are classified according to features. A classified face area group included in the same shot group is presumed to be that of the same person and selected as the face area group of a main character. Consequently, the main character is selected by combining similarity of shots forming a picture and face area detection. Therefore, even in a picture including a character whose face cannot be detected in a part of shot sections, it is possible to order and select characters and select a face of a main character more conforming to actual program contents in a television program than that in the related art.

A base station apparatus, when performing the transmission controls of pico base stations, can perform an appropriate transmission control for each pico base station, while suppressing the increase of the amount of feedback information from a macro terminal to a macro base station and also suppressing the increase of the amount of transmission control information from the macro base station to the pico base station. In this apparatus, a transmission control unit (102) updates, on the basis of the control information, the priority level of each of a plurality of different correspondences in which the respective ones of transmission control guidelines are associated with the respective ones of a plurality of control information history patterns, and controls the transmissions on the basis of the control guidelines determined from the control information histories and the correspondences each having a respective higher priority level.

The inventions provides a method for immunologically determining a keratan sulfate level which method includes bringing an anti-keratan sulfate monoclonal antibody into contact with a biological sample, the anti-keratan sulfate monoclonal antibody exhibiting a relative reaction specificity between keratan sulfate-I and keratan sulfate-II represented by IC50KS-I/KS-II of 0.4 to 5, to thereby provide a signal; and detecting keratan sulfate contained in the biological sample from the signal. On the basis of the method, the invention also provides a joint disease detection method and a method for assessing the effect of a remedy for a joint disease and a candidate substance therefor. Through these methods, a very small amount of keratan sulfate contained in a sample, can be determined. Particularly, these methods can determine, at high-sensitivity and high-specificity, the total keratan sulfate including keratan sulfate-I, which have been difficult to determine through a conventional technique. The methods also enables detect a joint disease and assess the effect of a remedy for a joint disease or a candidate substance therefor.

A fixing device fixing a toner image on a recording material includes a first blowing section that blows air against a leading edge of the recording material that has passed through a nip portion formed by a heated fixing member and a pressing member kept in pressure contact with the fixing member, and a second blowing section that blows air against the recording material that has passed through the nip portion, wherein an air speed of air blown out from a first blowing outlet is higher than that of air blown out from a second blowing outlet, wherein an air flow amount from the first blowing outlet is less than that from the second blowing outlet, and wherein the first and second blowing outlets are arranged at a same positional height next to one another along a rotational axis of the fixing roller.
