摘要:
A device comprises a look-up table translating unit, a region dividing unit and a reduced image generating unit to reduce the size of a color image using look-up tables and a reference look-up table. Each of the look-up and reference look-up tables has as many entries as there are the pixel values. The look-up table translating unit creates an entry check table. The entry check table is for translating the table entries of the look-up table into the those of the reference look-up table. The region dividing unit divides the original color image into a plurality of regions. The reduced image generating unit accesses the entry check table and the reference look-up table to selectively determine a representative pixel of the region based on the RGB values thereof to generate the reduced color images.

A technique improves the effectiveness of evaluation (so-called word-of-mouth communication) information of users on stores and products relative to a large number of unidentifiable users. An evaluation information management system comprises a first evaluation information providing section that provides a first user qualified to evaluate an object of evaluation with first evaluation information to be used for evaluating the object of evaluation, a first evaluation information acquiring section that acquires information on the evaluation given by the first user for the object of evaluation according to the first evaluation information, a display control section that associates the information acquired by the first evaluation information acquiring section with information on at least a benefit selectable for the object of evaluation from the information and displays the pieces of information, a benefit information providing section that provides a second user with information for acquiring the benefit selected by the second user from the information displayed by the display control section, a second evaluation information providing section that provides the second user who utilizes the benefit according to the information provided by the benefit information providing section with second evaluation information to be used to evaluate the reliability of the evaluation given by the first user and a second evaluation information acquiring section that acquires the information relating to the evaluation on the reliability of the evaluation of the first user given by the second user according to the second evaluation information.
摘要:
The user's waiting time in a dialogue system is effectively utilized. A dialogue apparatus makes a first dialogue with a user and judges whether a second dialogue should be started when a user's waiting time occurs during the first dialogue, For example, when information necessary to further continue the first dialogue is acquired via a network during the first dialogue, a waiting time occurs, If the waiting time is expected to be long, the second dialogue is made during the first waiting time, After this dialogue ends, the first dialogue is resumed, Thus, the waiting time during the dialogue becomes shorter, so that the connection time is effectively utilized.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an image browsing device that, in an amusement park, shoots a user who is riding a ride-on, and makes the user browse the shot image at a place where the user gets off the ride-on. Firstly, when plural users direct their ID cards to the ID readers (11) respectively, users ID, ride-on number, seat numbers are made to correspond to each other to be stored in an image management device (21). When an image photographing device (12) shoots an image including a ride-on (43) and the plural users, the image management device (21) stores the image shot by the image photographing device (12), and relates the ride-on number, users ID, seat numbers to the image to store thus related information as image information. When the user browses the image, the user sets the ID card close to radio communication units (52), and, in the previously shot image, the image of a seat position related to the ID card is highlighted to be displayed. Accordingly, it becomes possible to easily specify the user who is shot in the previously shot image.
