  • Patent number: 11409256
    Abstract: This information processing device is provided with an editing unit and a storage unit. The editing unit performs editing on one or more controller data sets that contain control programs to be executed on a control device. The storage unit stores a sharing setting table indicative of sharing settings of the control programs included in the respective controller data sets. When the control program for a first controller data set and the control program for a second controller data set that are included in the plurality of controller data sets are set to be shared, the editing unit synchronizes the edited content for the control program for the first controller data set with the control program for the second controller data set.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7593136
    Abstract: A digital image processing system includes: a memory for storing a gradation conversion table which correlates inputted image signals to output gradation values in the output device; and a gradation conversion unit for converting an inputted image signals that indicate the digital image, in accordance with the gradation conversion table, wherein the gradation conversion table is determined so that a gradient which represents change rate of gradation value between neighboring output gradation values, is kept the maximum over a predetermined range of the output gradation values.

  • Publication number: 20050243334
    Abstract: There is described image-processing method and apparatus for applying an image processing to radiation image data, representing a radiation image acquired by projecting radial rays penetrated through a subject, so as to convert the radiation image to a processed radiation image suitable for a diagnosing purpose. The image-processing apparatus includes: an edge detecting section to detect an edge of a structural image contained in the radiation image; a geometrical shape measuring section to measure degree of a geometrical shape contoured by the edge detected by the edge detecting section; a weight determining section to determine a weight of the structural image, based on the degree of the geometrical shape measured by the geometrical shape measuring section; and an image-processing section to apply the image processing to the radiation image data, based on a parameter corresponding to the weight determined by the weight determining section.
