Patent number: 11928790Abstract: An object included in a low-resolution image can be recognized with a high degree of precision. An acquisition unit acquires, from a query image, an increased-resolution image, which is acquired by increasing the resolution of the query image, by performing pre-learned acquisition processing for increasing the resolution of an image. A feature extraction unit, using the increased-resolution image as input, extracts a feature vector of the increased-resolution image by performing pre-learned extraction processing for extracting a feature vector of an image. A recognition unit recognizes an object captured on the increased-resolution image on the basis of the feature vector of the increased-resolution image and outputs the recognized object as the object captured on the query image.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2019Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATIONInventors: Yukito Watanabe, Jun Shimamura, Atsushi Sagata

Publication number: 20040138974Abstract: If money is paid in from a customer, an outstanding amount of a real account of the customer in each of financial institutions is identified, to calculate a shortage between the outstanding amount and a predetermined amount. Whether the money amount paid in from the customer exceeds the shortage is decided and, if the pay-in money amount does not exceed the shortage, the pay-in money amount is determined to be a pay-in money amount for the real account, to perform pay-in processing. If the pay-in money amount exceeds the shortage, the shortage is determined to be a pay-in money amount for the real account. Then, almost the same arithmetic operations are repeated on real accounts other than the real account for which the pay-in money amount has been determined, to determine a pay-in money amount for the real accounts other than that real account, thus performing pay-in processing.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2003Publication date: July 15, 2004Inventors: Atsushi Shimamura, Toshiyuki Moritsu, Daisuke Yoshimine, Kunihito Takeuchi
