Abstract: [Problem] The estimation accuracy of a class of an object is to be effectively improved. [Means of Solution] Provided is an information processing device including an estimation unit that estimates, based on an input image, a class of an object that is present in a real environment corresponding to an imaging range of the input image, wherein the object includes an acoustically useful object having an acoustic feature useful for class estimation, and the estimation unit estimates a class of the acoustically useful object based on acoustic data collected from around the acoustically useful object.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing device to improve the accuracy of estimation using a student network, the information processing device including an estimation unit that estimates an object class of an object included in an input image using a student network generated based on a teacher network generated by machine learning using images stored in a large-scale image database as training data. The student network is generated by machine learning using, as training data, synthetic images obtained using the teacher network and real environment images acquired by a plurality of different modalities in a real environment in which estimation by the estimation unit is expected to be executed.

Abstract: User interface (UI) manipulation techniques are disclosed that can allow a user device to hide and obscure sensitive information displayed on a flexible, foldable, or otherwise reconfigurable display from onlookers whilst maintaining or improving its accessibility exclusively to the primary user. Examples of the disclosed techniques can manipulate the UI in a way such that it is largely only viewable as intended when the user device is physically configured to a certain folding angle (and/or viewing angle). In some examples, the UI can be customized such that it promotes a certain device configuration (e.g., folding angle) that can provide an optimum security configuration for the user's current surroundings. The UI displayed on the display screen can change in form factor (e.g., an intended size as viewed by the user) to adapt to the current surroundings and/or based on the sensitivity in the displayed content.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method for capturing a feature of interest observed by a passenger of a vehicle, comprising detecting an excited level of the passenger’s interest based on passenger data generated by monitoring the passenger of the vehicle, thereby generating an interest event; extracting a gaze direction of the passenger relating to the interest event based on the passenger data; and extracting environmental data, generated by monitoring an environment of the vehicle, that relate to the interest event and to the gaze direction, thereby generating partial feature data for the feature of interest observed by the passenger. The present invention further relates to a computer system configured to execute the computer-implemented method for capturing a feature of interest observed by a passenger of a vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method for generating a personalized coloring template for a user of a user monitoring device, comprising obtaining user data generated by monitoring the user’s emotional state via the user monitoring device; obtaining an emotion event generated by detecting an excited level of an emotion of the user based on the user data; and generating a coloring template based on the emotion event, thereby generating the personalized coloring template for the user. The present invention further relates to a computer system configured to execute the computer-implemented method for generating a personalized coloring template for a user.
