Abstract: A duplicate word acquisition unit acquires, as a duplicate word, when an item is selected by a user from a list of items to be selected by the user, a word contained in both text information associated with the item selected by the user and text information associated with another item having a predetermined relationship with the item selected by the user. A search condition setting unit sets a search condition for searching for an item similar to the item selected by the user based on the duplicate word. A search execution unit executes a search based on the search condition.

Abstract: An alerting apparatus (100) includes an obtainer (111), a detector (112), and an outputter (113). The obtainer (111) obtains a group of images of a group of objects imaged by a stereo camera, the group of objects including a plurality of external objects. The detector (112) detects objects approaching each other in accordance with positions and parallaxes of the plurality of imaged objects based on the obtained group of images. The outputter (113) outputs an alert reflecting a degree of approach, the degree representing a degree of closeness between the detected objects.

Element area setting means sets, with respect to the image, a plurality of element areas respectively corresponding to a plurality of elements in the image. Overlapped area specifying means specifies an overlapped area in which a degree of overlap of the element areas is greater than or equal to a predetermined value in the image. Foreground area extracting means extracts a foreground area corresponding to the object from the image based on the overlapped area.

Abstract: An object is to prevent of display of display of candidates unlikely to be selected. An information processing device a target date associated with an input value to be input. The information processing device displays candidates for an input value on a screen. At this time, the information processing device displays a first number of candidates when the target date is included in a first period during which the information changes in a first range. The information processing device displays a second number of candidates that is smaller than the first number when the target date is included in a second period during which the information changes in a second range that is narrower than the first range. The first period and the second period is included in a cycle in which the information changes.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to shorten time from when a predetermined condition is satisfied till when recharging is completed. A mobile terminal directly requests an electronic money server to perform recharging. In response to this, the electronic money server secures funds and then generates a command group for recharging. Then, the electronic money server sends, to the mobile terminal, a storage instruction by which the mobile terminal is made to store the generated command group in an IC chip. The mobile terminal then does not immediately execute the command group but temporality stores the command group into a general-purpose IC chip. In this way, a stage of preparation for recharging is completed. Then, under a certain condition (for example, by user's operation, on the side of the general-purpose IC chip, the stored command group is executed. In this way, recharging is performed, and the value balance is updated.

Abstract: Even when a user specifies a plurality of keywords as a search condition, it is possible to provide information of search objects that are commercially advantageous for the user. A search apparatus divides a plurality of keywords specified as a search condition into two child search conditions, each of which includes at least one keyword. The search apparatus searches for a search object that matches all the keywords specified as the search condition. The search apparatus searches for search objects that match all the keywords included in one of the child search conditions and search objects that match all the keywords included in the other of the child search conditions. The search apparatus extracts combinations of search objects having predetermined relationship to each other from among combinations of any one of search objects found by the one of the child search conditions and any one of search objects found by the other of the child search conditions.

Abstract: An index calculation unit of a server calculates a Pre-Ad rank value that is a first index, on the basis of a GMS value and a unique users value. A list generation unit generates a list of display-candidate advertisements selected on the basis of the first indexes, the list including location information of the advertisements, and sends the list to a user terminal. A match level determination unit of the user terminal 3 calculates a correlation between a user and the product in relation to the user. An individual index calculation unit calculates an Ad rank value that is a second index, on the basis of the first index and the correlation. An advertisement choosing unit specifies a number of advertisements to be displayed and, on the basis of the second indexes, chooses the specified number of advertisements from among the advertisements of the one or more products.

Abstract: A user interface apparatus, computer program, computer readable medium, and method for selecting a selectable object on a display screen is presented. The display screen displays one or more selectable objects. Information regarding a tracked hand position, and a tracked head or eye position of the user are obtained. Based on the tracked hand position and the tracked head or eye position, it is determined whether a said selectable object is located at a first screen position, the first screen position being a position on the display screen such that the first hand at least partly obscures the user's view of the selectable object. If it is determined as so located, then selectable object is determined as selected.

Abstract: An acquirer (101) acquires, when a first product is dropped into an electronic cart, a second product similar to the first product, a first bonus provided on condition that an order for the first product is placed, and a second bonus provided on condition that an order for the second product is placed. A presenter (102) presents a form in which a first object related to the first product dropped into the electronic cart is arranged and a second object related to the acquired second product is further arranged, if the acquired second bonus is more advantageous than the acquired first bonus. An acceptor (103) accepts an order for the first product if the first object is operated. A cart manager (104) drops the second product in the electronic cart if the second object is operated.
