Abstract: A learning system includes a learning data acquisition unit that generates a neural network included in a single forecast model for performing a forecast of demand for a service through machine learning and acquires, as learning data, an actual demand value of the service and a feature amount for learning for each mesh associated with a past period, the feature amount for learning including the number of demands for the service in each mesh in each period as a feature amount, a learning data normalization unit that normalizes at least the number of demands in the feature amount for learning for each mesh, and a generation unit that performs machine learning on the basis of an actual demand value and a demand forecast value obtained by inputting the feature amount for learning including the normalized number of demands to the neural network, and generates the neural network.

Abstract: A binding machine includes: a wire feeding unit configured to feed a wire; a curl forming unit configured to form a feeding path of the wire along which the wire fed in a first direction by the wire feeding unit is wound around an object; and a binding unit configured to twist the wire fed in first direction by the wire feeding unit and wound on the object. The wire feeding unit includes a pair of feeding members configured to sandwich the wire and to feed the wire by a rotating operation, and a feeding motor configured to drive the feeding members. The binding machine further includes a control unit configured to control the wire feeding unit. The control unit is configured to control the wire feeding unit to enable the wire sandwiched by the feeding members to be discharged from the feeding members.

Abstract: An airbag apparatus for an automobile includes an airbag case for accommodating an airbag, a fracture-opening section of the surface panel, and a reinforcement frame member having a frame portion, at least one fracture-section reinforcement portion, and an edge reinforcement potion. The frame portion has an engagement portion to which the airbag case is connected. The fracture-section reinforcement portion is joined to the inside surface of the surface panel to cover and reinforce the fracture-opening section. The edge reinforcement portion is joined to the inside surface of the surface panel to cover and reinforce a surface panel portion surrounding the fracture-opening section.

Abstract: An airbag apparatus for an automobile includes an airbag case for accommodating an airbag in a folded condition, the airbag case being disposed behind a surface panel provided within the automobile; a fracture-opening section of the surface panel, the fracture-opening section facing an opening of the airbag case and being defined by means of fracture grooves formed on an inside surface of the surface panel; and a reinforcement frame member having a frame portion, at least one fracture-section reinforcement portion, and an edge reinforcement portion, which are integrally formed at an upper end portion of the frame portion. The frame portion has an engagement portion to which the airbag case is connected. The fracture-section reinforcement portion is joined to the inside surface of the surface panel to cover and reinforce the fracture-opening section.
