Abstract: A portable information apparatus is capable of ensuring communication quality of an antenna device while avoiding issues of a reduction in appearance quality, an increase in cost and so forth. The portable communication apparatus is configured that a main body chassis and a display chassis are coupled together via a hinge device to be openable/closable. The hinge device includes a hinge chassis having a sectional shape whose longitudinal direction extends along a direction that the respective chassis mutually overlap in a state of overlappingly closing the respective chassis and hinge shafts which respectively couple together one of the chassis and the hinge chassis and together the other of the chassis and the hinge chassis to be rotatable. An antenna device having an antenna element is housed and fixed in the hinge chassis and the antenna element is disposed in a posture of being inclined relative to a longitudinal direction of the sectional shape of the hinge chassis.

Abstract: The present invention recommends information desired by a user. A content recommendation apparatus of the present invention identifies a category of a document acquired via a network and/or a term included in the document based on a first database, extracts, as a search keyword, a term associated with the category of the document and/or the term identified, searches for a content using the extracted search keyword, classifies a term included in a document in the retrieved content based on the appearance frequency, determines a feature value of a term in the category of the term classified, determines a degree of interest in each classified term based on a second database, and identifies, from retrieved contents, a recommended content based on the feature value and/or the degree of interest.

Abstract: The present invention provides an information processing apparatus which appropriately acquires a content associated with a document and displays the content together with the document. The information processing apparatus includes: a database section which stores term clusters in each of which terms similar in appearance tendency in the documents are grouped, and document clusters in each of which documents similar in term appearance tendency are grouped; a word extraction section which extracts a word from a specified document; a document cluster identifying section which identifies, based on the extracted word, a document cluster associated with the specified document; a keyword selection section which selects, as a keyword, a term appearing in the identified document cluster; a content acquisition section which acquires, from a network, a content associated with the selected keyword; and a display section which displays the acquired content together with the specified document.

Abstract: The present invention provides information which serves as a useful reference when selecting content in which a user himself/herself is interested in many pieces of content. An information processing device includes an information acquisition unit which acquires information that a third person who is related to a user contributes to a website, a content search unit which searches for content relating to the information which is acquired by the information acquisition unit, and a display control unit which makes a display unit display information on a plurality of pieces of content which is viewable for the user. The display control unit makes the display unit display the information on the content which is searched for by the content search unit in the information on the plurality of pieces of content in a state of being related to information corresponding to the third person.

Abstract: The present invention provides an information processing system capable of implementing a recommendation function equivalent to that of the conventional even if the amount of information of databases provided in apparatuses used when the recommendation function is implemented is reduced. A server stores terms appearing in all documents and the total appearance frequencies of the terms in such a manner that terms similar in appearance tendency are grouped and documents similar in term appearance tendency are grouped, generates, from a stored two-dimensional database, a one-dimensional database stored for each total term cluster, and transmits the generated one-dimensional database to an information processing apparatus.

Abstract: At the time of input of authentication information, even when the hand and the input screen are seen from the third person, guess of authentication information is made difficult. A plurality of keys serving as input means are divided into a first region and a second region. Then, the first region and the second region are caused to transit between a first state and a second state distinguished from each other depending on the displayed contents. When a region where a key to be inputted for the input of authentication information is arranged is in the second state, input to the above-mentioned plurality of keys is recognized as dummy.

Abstract: A terminal device and a device program having a high degree of convenience that are capable of selectively displaying a list of content information interesting to a user and do not need to allow an external server to acquire the degree of interest for the content information. The terminal device acquires distribution information of a predetermined kind for content information through a network, estimates a degree of interest of a user using the terminal device for the content information based on an operation content for the content information, and selects content information that is a display target from new content information corresponding to the distribution information acquired based on at least the degree of interest for the content information of the past that is estimated.
