摘要:
It is an object of this invention to realize high-speed database retrieval. More specifically, it is an object of this invention to increase a retrieval speed when data corresponding to an input character string are retrieved from a database having a trie structure. In order to achieve the above object, a database retrieval apparatus according to the invention can retrieve data corresponding to an input character string from a database having a trie structure, and includes a plurality of child node search units for searching for a child node corresponding to the input character string at each node of the trie structure, and a setting unit for setting, in advance for each node, one of the plurality of child node search unit which is to be used at each node. Data held in the database is retrieved by searching for a child node using the child node search unit set for each node by the setting unit.
摘要:
A speech output apparatus is disclosed, which can allow the user to easily catch synthetic speech when the synthetic speech is output upon being superposed on a music output. The apparatus output can output a music and synthetic speech that indicates contents of information such as an e-mail and is superposed on the music. When the synthetic speech is output to be superposed on the music during output, the apparatus gradually decreases a tone volume of the music.

摘要:
An information processing method enlarges or reduces and displays an area of a part of image data, displayed on a display unit, in response to a user's operation and determines, based on objects included in the enlarged or reduced and displayed area and on objects included in a plurality of image data pieces, a display order of the plurality of image data pieces.

Provided is a backlight unit capable of reducing luminance unevenness. The backlight unit includes a plurality of dot light sources and a light guide plate in which a predetermined side surface serves as a light incident surface for introducing light from the plurality of dot light sources. The plurality of dot light sources are classified into a first light source group and a second light source group. A mount point of the first light source group and a mount point of the second light source group are displaced from each other in a thickness direction of the light guide plate. A total luminance of the first light source group is higher than a total luminance of the second light source group.
摘要:
In an information processing method for recognizing a handwritten figure or character, with use of a speech input in combination, in order to increase the recognition accuracy a given target is subjected to figure recognition and a first candidate figure list is obtained. Input speech information is phonetically recognized and a second candidate figure list is obtained. On the basis of the figure candidates obtained by the figure recognition and the figure candidates obtained by the speech recognition, a most likely figure is selected.
摘要:
An image processing method for reconstructing an image of an arbitrary view point from plural photographed images, for the purpose of reducing a memory capacity for storing photographed images in an image generating apparatus capable of generating an image of an arbitrary view point, the method including a setting step of setting a view point position, an input step of inputting photographed images, and an extraction step of extracting light beam data necessary for reconstructing an image at the set view point position from the photographed images, wherein the input step and the extraction step are repeated until the reconstructed image is generated.
摘要:
UI widget content includes reference information by which its own UI widget refers to a child UI widget, and a description of an initial-focus designation for designating which of its own UI widget and child UI widget will have initial focus. A self-UI widget is generated, a child UI widget associated with the self-UI widget is generated based upon the reference information, and a UI widget hierarchy is thus built. A path is followed from a root of the UI widget hierarchy to a child UI widget designated by the corresponding initial-focus designation information. When a UI widget for which a child UI widget has not been designated in the corresponding reference information is retrieved, it is determined that this UI widget is the UI widget having the initial focus.
