A cooking appliance controls a cooking device on the basis of temperature information of an object to be cooked that is estimated from changes in physical characteristics. A neural network is taught, for a number of categories of food that are classified according to the temperature of the cooked and completed food, the relationship between changes in the physical characteristic, such as the temperature and humidity, generated during heating of the object to be cooked during cooking, and changes of temperature of the object at the center of the object and the surface of the object in order to provide for an automatic cooking operation.

An apparatus for printing signal correction and printer operation control, for use in applications such as color copiers, utilizes a neural network to convert input image signals, derived for example by scanning and analyzing an original image, into printing density signals which are supplied to a printer. In addition, a detection signal expressing at least one internal environmental condition of the printer, such as temperature, is inputted to the neural network, so that the output printing density signals are automatically compensated for changes in internal environment of the printer.

A color correction method applicable to a digital processing type of color copier, whereby a set of color patches of respectively different sample colors is printed using a set of printing data values, the color patches are then scanned and analyzed to obtain color patch input data values by the color copier, and each of all of the possible input color data values that can be produced by the scanner/analyzer section of the color copier is then related to one of the color patch input data values which is closest thereto in a 3-dimensional color space. Each of these possible input color data values is thereby related to an appropriate color printing value, whereby a color correction table can be generated which provides correction accuracy that is independent of non-linearity of color printing characteristics.
