Abstract: An envelope processing apparatus that inserts an enclosure into an envelope includes an envelope conveyor, a flap opener, an enclosure pusher, and circuitry. The envelope conveyor extends in a vertical direction and conveys the envelope to an enclosing position via an envelope conveyance passage as a passage in which the envelope is conveyed. The flap opener opens a flap of the envelope. The enclosure pusher pushes the enclosure toward an opening of a body of the envelope conveyed to the enclosing position with the flap open. The circuitry changes a pushing amount of the enclosure into the envelope and adjusts the pushing amount based on the opening of the body of the envelope within a specified range from an inside to an outside of the body of the envelope.

Abstract: 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.
