Inputting a profile of a user; detecting a current position of the user; previously recording service information on shops or the like in a recording device associated with the current position of the user and the profile of the user; and retrieving and selecting the service information on the shops or the like recorded in the recording device according to the inputted profile and the detected current position of the user to notify the user permit providing appropriate service information required by the user to the user by a push type information notification system. There are also provided a storing device which previously stores destination information matching a date, a time period, a cost, number of persons, a purpose or the like in action, associated with user information on an age, a sex or a preference of the user; an input device through which the user inputs his profile such as the preference; a processing device which selects a destination or action information on an action order or the like associated with the profile from the destination information stored in the storing device according to a predetermined algorithm; and a notifying device (display device) which notifies the user of the selected action information, thereby permitting successively notifying the user of destinations and action instructions.

An electronic endoscope system includes a light source apparatus, a CCD, and a processor apparatus. The light source apparatus applies illumination light to a target portion. The target portion includes a surface blood vessel and a subsurface blood vessel. The CCD captures light reflected from the target portion. The processor apparatus generates an image based on an imaging signal from the CCD. The processor apparatus has a suppression processor. Out of the surface blood vessel and the subsurface blood vessel in an image, the suppression processor reduces contrast of a non-target blood vessel relative to that of a target blood vessel to suppress or reduce display of the non-target blood vessel relative to that of the target blood vessel.

A local region determining section determines a region above a face, detected by a face detecting section, to be a local region, which is a part of a shadowless background region. An extraction executing section extracts regions adjacent to the local region and constituted by pixels of a similar color to that of the local region, as the shadowless background region. A shadow region extracting section extracts a region adjacent to the shadowless background region and constituted by pixels, of which: differences in hue and saturation from the average hue and the average saturation of the local region are within predetermined threshold values; the brightness is lower than the average brightness of the local region; and the difference in the brightnesses exceeds a predetermined threshold value, as a shadow region. A correcting section corrects the brightness of the shadow region to match that of the local region, to remove a shadow.

Upon resumption of a slide show of image data sets with reference to a playlist, the slide show can be resumed from where the slide show has been suspended. For this purpose, the slide show is reproduced as serial reproduction of the image data sets with reference to the playlist. Upon suspension of the slide show, where the slide show has been suspended is set as a restart point in the playlist. The slide show is resumed from the restart point with reference to the restart point set in the playlist.

An endoscope apparatus has: a light source device that includes a light source irradiating narrow band light and a fluorescent substance to emit predetermined fluorescent light and that irradiates illumination light; an endoscope body that includes an imaging element outputting an image signal; and a processing device that includes a signal dividing unit dividing the image signal into a first image signal corresponding to the narrow hand light and a second image signal corresponding to the fluorescent light, a blood vessel depth information calculating unit calculating blood vessel depth information based on the first image signal and the second image signal, a spectral estimation information calculating unit calculating spectral estimation information based on the second image signal, and an image processing unit generating a captured image from the first image signal, the second image signal, the blood vessel depth information, and the spectral estimation information.
摘要:
When a face image of a character in an image represented by image data fed to a mask data creating apparatus is detected, face image areas of the detected character are respectively extracted by different two types of processing. An appropriate degree is calculated for each of the face image areas extracted by the two types of extraction processing. The face area for which the higher relevance factor is calculated is used, to create mask data.

A collation system for selecting a registrant matched with a passer-by among a plurality of registrants registered in advance includes a photographing section for photographing the passer-by, a candidate searching section for searching a plurality of candidates for the registrant matched with the passer-by among the plurality of registrants based on a first image of the passer-by photographed by the photographing section, and a passer-by collating section for selecting the registrant matched with the passer-by among the plurality of candidates based on a second image of the passer-by photographed by the photographing section when the passer-by is closer to the photographing section than when the first image is photographed.
摘要:
It is detected whether or not a face image is included in an image represented by applied image data. When the face image is detected, an image area g1 including the detected face image is cut out. A plurality of rectangular projection information creating windows w are set radially from the center of the cut image g1. With respect to each of image portions within the plurality of projection information creating windows w, projection information obtained by adding pixel information for each unit pixel position from the center of the image is created. Thereafter, the projection information is converted into data representing the distance from an ideal skin color. With respect to each of the image portions within the plurality of projection information creating windows, a boundary position between a skin color image (face image area) and an image other than the skin color image (face image area) is determined on the basis of the distance data for each unit pixel position.
摘要:
An identification-data memory is connected to a light-source identifying circuit. Data representing a type of characteristic quantity to be used in making an identification and identification points are stored in the identification-data memory with regard to each type of a plurality of light sources. Based upon input image data, a characteristic quantity is read out and identification points decided in accordance with the identification-data memory. The type of light source that was used to acquire an image represented by image data to be processed is discriminated in accordance with the identification points that have been decided. A color temperature that corresponds to the light-source type discriminated is set in a color-temperature setting circuit, and gray pixels having the set color temperature are extracted from the input image. White-balance correction coefficients are decided based upon the gray pixels extracted.
