  • Patent number: 10467596
    Abstract: An electronic mail monitoring apparatus executes a plurality of processing. When the verification processing has judged that the uniqueness number of information for each of the user identification information calculated by the calculation processing has exceeded a first threshold, the calculation processing calculates a uniqueness number of countries or regions on the basis of the identification information for each user identification information extracted by the extraction processing within a unit time. The verification processing judges whether the uniqueness number of countries or regions for each of the user identification information calculated by the calculation processing has exceeded a predetermined second threshold.

  • Publication number: 20180083942
    Abstract: An object is to prevent concentration of communication traffic at a management node and to avoid a reduction in communication speed. An AP stores information for specifying a permitted terminal permitted to communicate with a communication network, and generates access information when information for specifying a connection request terminal requesting a connection to the communication network through wireless communication is not stored as the information for specifying the permitted terminal, by adding terminal information and AP information to information used for accessing provider information that provides an authentication window used for authentication of the connection request terminal.

  • Patent number: 9842235
    Abstract: A problem is to provide a portable terminal, an information display system, an information display method, and a multi-tag in which two sheets of two-dimensional bar code for download and for individual information data reading need not be installed and hence an installation space can be reduced and a user need not select which bar code is to be read. A processing section (11) of a portable terminal (1) sets a transfer destination for a message of a read-out multi-tag to be a different destination depending on whether a tag reading application (113) has been installed in the own terminal (1).

  • Publication number: 20150234808
    Abstract: In object recognition using image information, countermeasures are taken for reducing erroneous judgment caused when the similarity between a visual feature of an object image and a visual feature of dictionary data of another object becomes high in association with a temporal change. In a dictionary update method for a computer for updating dictionary data in which a visual feature of an object which a user desires to recognize is registered: when there are a plurality of data pieces having a visual feature similar to the inputted inquiry image, visual features of a plurality of objects are concluded as being similar and hence the pair of objects are accumulated into a similar object accumulation section; and when the objects accumulated in the similar object accumulation section have reached a condition set forth in advance, data having the visual features of the objects having reached the condition is concluded as requiring update and hence update is recommended to a user having registered the object.
