    摘要: In an apparatus for identification of individuals, a facial image of an individual to be identified is inputted into a visual image input unit and characteristic points of the inputted facial image are extracted by a characteristics extracting unit. Characteristic points of expressionless facial images of individuals to be identified are stored in a data base. The difference between the characteristic points from the data base of individuals and the characteristic points from the inputted facial image is detected by a difference detecting unit. Further, the apparatus is equipped with a database of expression muscles wherein expression muscle movement vectors to form facial expressions are described. The apparatus is also equipped with an information processing unit whereby the difference information obtained from the difference detecting unit and the information as described in the data base of expression muscles are processed. By this processed information, coupled with the facial image inputted from the visual image input unit, the subject in question is identified.

    摘要: An information processing apparatus and method for the same, comprising a database part, a processing-method-determining part, and an information-processing-part. The processing-method-determining part extracts from the data base part attribute characteristics corresponding to the individual media signals which correspond to the reference signals. The processing-method-determining part selects one processing method from among methods by combining the attribute characteristics. The informations processing part, based on the selected processing method, extends or reduces the reproduction time of the media signals to be combined, or discontinues an individual media signal, wherein a multimedia representation consisting of different media signals is produced with reproducing times that satisfactorily coincide.

    摘要: In the vehicle surroundings display device of the invention, an image processor generates an image showing the situation around a vehicle. When an obstacle is detected by an obstacle detection means, the image processor determines an image missing region using the position of the border of the obstacle on the vehicle side detected by an obstacle position detection means and fills the image missing region with substitute image data. This eliminates unnaturalness of a display image the user may feel and enables the user to accurately recognize the position of a neighboring obstacle that is important in driving operation.
