Abstract: On a surface of a screen, a first direction parallel to a virtual plane and a second direction orthogonal to the first direction are defined. A basic diffusion member of the screen diffuses and transmits each light ray at a first angle in a first plane parallel to the first direction, and diffuses and transmits the light ray at a second angle larger than the first angle in a second plane parallel to the second direction.

The basic diffusion member and the adjustment diffusion member are stacked on each other such that a diffusion angle of each light ray by the screen in the first plane is adjusted to a target angle larger than the adjustment angle.

Abstract: In order to solve a conventional problem that a translation model has to be updated each time a translation corpus is added, in a case of calculating a score of each phrase pair acquired from a j-th translation corpus (2?j?N) (added translation corpus), a score of each phrase pair corresponding to the j-th translation corpus is calculated using the one or more pieces of phrase appearance frequency information corresponding to a (j?1)-th translation corpus, the calculated score is used to generate a translation model, and the newly generated translation model is used in a state of being integrated to an original translation model. Accordingly, a translation model can be easily enhanced in a stepwise manner.

Abstract: In particular, even if sensors have their respective different timer precisions, the number of occasions when the sensors wait for data can be minimized, thereby reducing the output consumptions on the sensor sides. A coordinator (3) allocates, based on information previously received from sensors (2), the sensors to respective slots, which constitute a super-frame, in a time sequence order and then notifies, to the sensors (2), the respective slots to which the sensors are allocated. When each of the sensors (2) transmits data to the coordinator (3), the sensor makes a synchronization request at the timing of the notified slot without receiving any beacons from the coordinator.
