  • Document anonymity setting device, method and computer readable recording medium recording anonymity setting program
    Patent number: 7184947
    Abstract: A document anonymity setting device comprises a document input means inputting a document, a specificity calculating means extracting an expression specifying a person from the input document and for calculating a specificity to evaluate a degree of specificity at which the expression specifying a person, and an anonymity setting processing means rewriting with anonymity setting a expression in the input document having a specificity which is greater than a predetermined threshold. The specificity calculating unit extracts a person name and a modification expression from the input document and calculates a specificity to evaluate a degree of specificity at which the person name and modification expression thus extracted can specify a person.
    Type: Grant

  • Process and apparatus for recrystallization of semiconductor layer
    Patent number: 5322589
    Abstract: A process for recrystallizing a semiconductor layer including the steps of forming a polycrystalline or amorphous semiconductor layer on a substrate and scanning energy beam on the semiconductor layer, wherein the energy beam is vibrated substantially in parallel to the direction of advance of the scanning of the energy beam. For carrying out the process, the apparatus includes a sample stage for holding a sample having a polycrystalline or amorphous semiconductor layer, an energy beam source for generating energy beam, a scanning means for scanning the energy beam on the semiconductor layer, and a beam-vibrating means for vibrating the energy beam substantially in parallel to the direction of advance of the scanning of the energy beam.
