Abstract: An negative example prediction processing method for predicting a likelihood of examples being negative for data where, with respect to a certain problem, it is not known whether the data is for a correctly worded positive example or for an incorrectly worded negative example. In this negative example prediction processing method, an unknown example x is inputted and a determination is made as to whether or not the example x exists in a positive example database provided in advance. If the example x does not exist, a typical probability of appearance p(x) for the example x is calculated, and a likelihood Q(x) of the example x being an negative example is calculated from the probability of appearance p(x).

Abstract: Four optical interferometers are arranged in parallel. Optical path length differences of the optical interferometers are set to L, r×L, r×r×L, and r×r×r×L, respectively, where L is a unit optical path length difference (constant). A coefficient r by which the unit optical path length difference L is multiplied is any non-integer real number for example an irrational number. An irrational number is for example a surd ({square root}2, {square root}3, etc.), ratio of circumference D, or base e of a natural logarithm. When such optical path length differences are set in such a manner, a chaotic dynamical system, an addition theorem, and a chaotic map are not satisfied with respect to the intensities of light which is output from the optical interferometers. In other words, a thoroughly unpredictable sequence can be generated. The sequence is spectrum spread as spread codes.

The present invention can be applied to fabricate an integrated circuit of superconductor film, because the high temperature annealing process for the as-grown film of MgB2 is not needed.

Abstract: An object is to reduce the noise of optical signals in optical processing. The optical signals and optical control signals are input into a first ring optical fiber, so that the optical signals propagates clockwise and counter-clockwise in the optical fiber, and the optical control signals propagates either clockwise or counter-clockwise in the first ring optical fiber.

The optical signals propagating in the different direction with the optical control signals are not affected with cross phase modulation with the optical control signals. The two kinds of the optical signals are interfered each other at the optical output means to reduce the noise of the optical signals.

The component layer includes a DBR film. A recess for defining a bent region is formed in the component layer. The component layer, the strain compensation layer, the strain layer, and the release layer are removed in an approximately U shape, thereby forming a groove.

The strain layer is bent at a region below the recess so as to relax strain caused by the difference in the lattice constant between the InGaAs layer and the GaAs layer, and the component layer stands perpendicularly to the GaAs substrate.

Abstract: A device for outputting stochastic process according to the present invention comprises a plurality of random variable output units, a normalizing unit, and a result output unit. Each of the random variable output units outputs a sequence of random variables whose limiting distribution obeys an explicit density function. The normalizing unit normalizes the sum of the random variables in the same row over the random variable sequences output by the random variable output units, and sequentially outputs the normalized values. The result output unit integrates the values sequentially output by the normalizing unit, and sequentially outputs the integrated values as result values in stochastic process. The random variable output units utilize a recurrence formula obtained by an addition formula of a tangent function, thus, efficient high speed simulation of the Lévy's stable processes is realized.

Abstract: In a battery power supply apparatus for low-noise measurement systems or ultra high-sensitivity sensor elements (ultra-sensitive light or microwave sensors, or SQUID, SIS/SNS or other Josephson effect devices, etc.), the power supply device that supplies power to the outside and the control device that controls the power supply device perform bidirectional communications by means of an optical communications circuit, and thus it is possible to prevent noise arising in the control device from reaching the power supply device. In addition, it is possible to prevent the introduction of noise from the optical communications circuit into the power supply device within a shield case. Accordingly, it is possible to control the operation of the power supply device enclosed within the shield case from the control device outside of the shield case without having external noise affecting the power supply device.
