Abstract: A manufacture management apparatus includes: a planned stock quantity acquisition unit configured to acquire a planned stock quantity for an object to be manufactured in a given manufacturing process; an actual operation data acquisition unit configured to acquire an operation time of an actual operation, and an actual stock quantity when the operation is performed; and an operation time correction unit configured to calculate a corrected operation time by correcting the operation time based on the planned stock quantity and the actual stock quantity.

Abstract: Method for detecting a measles virus in an analyte, comprising forming a complex of a first monoclonal antibody being capable of binding to a first epitope of a measles virus nuclear protein and being immobilized on a solid phase, a second monoclonal antibody being capable of binding to a second epitope of a measles virus nuclear protein different from the first epitope and being labeled, and a measles virus nuclear protein contained in the analyte, on the solid phase; and detecting the measles virus based on the amount of the label of the complex formed on the solid phase, is disclosed. Membrane assay test device, and membrane assay test kit are also disclosed.

Abstract: A kit or an immuno-chromatographic test device for detection of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), comprising at least an RSV F protein-recognizing anti-RSV monoclonal antibody produced by hybridoma RSF2-412. An anti-RSV monoclonal antibody recognizing an RS virus F protein, which is selected from the group consisting of an antibody produced by hybridoma RSF2-412, an antibody produced by hybridoma RSF1-1565, and an antibody produced by hybridoma RSF6-255.

Abstract: The present invention provides a counterweight and a counterweight-recycling method capable of having excellent workability, capable of reducing manufacturing costs, and capable of achieving environmental conservation. A metal portion contained in slag produced in an iron making process or in residue in a waste treatment furnace is used as a weight material of a counterweight (10).

Abstract: An adjusting apparatus includes a judging unit that receives a characteristic value of an article processed by one of processing machines from one of measuring machines and, on the basis of the characteristic value, judges whether or not the processed article meets regular quality, and an abnormality estimating unit that, when the processed article does not meet regular quality, specifies an device to be adjusted on the basis of whether a characteristic value out of the regular range appears for every two cycles or three cycles.

Abstract: In order to provide a sheet determination apparatus having a high reliability and capable of correctly determining the number and kinds of sheets even when sheets having a fold, breakage, tear, or the like are transported in an unfavorable state of overlapping transport, skew transport, or the like, there is provided a thickness sensor with a plurality of thickness detection elements arranged over an entire width of an identification transport passage along a widthwise direction of transport of the transport passage, on which sheets are to be transported, profile data of sheets are extracted from thickness data detected every thickness detection element, and the extracted profile data and profile basic data of sheets, which are stored in a storage unit to constitute standards, are compared with each other and judged to determine the number of sheets.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an apparatus for and a method of automatically creating a supplemental segment in two-dimensional drawings. Two-dimensional drawing data concerning at least three views depicted based on orthogonal projection is previously stored in a drawing data storage device. Knowledge for recognizing three-dimensional solid model restored on the basis of the two-dimensional drawing data is previously stored in a knowledge storage device. The knowledge stored in the knowledge storage device is applied to the two-dimensional drawing data stored in the drawing data storage device, so that the three-dimensional solid model restored on the basis of the two-dimensional drawing data is recognized. An area where the supplemental segment is to be created is determined in the two-dimensional drawings on the basis of the recognized three-dimensional solid model. At least two end points of the supplemental segment to be created are determined in the determined area.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for automatic adjustment of character spacing suited to characters in innumerable combinations, such as in the case with Chinese characters and hiragana and katakana characters in the Japanese language. In character dot data of a plurality of characters which construct a character string developed in memory, character density data representing the broadness of the character face of a character, character face overlap area data representing degree of overlap between this character and a character adjacent thereto in a state in which the character and adjoining character are closest to each other, and blank-space area data representing the broadness of blank space produced between the two characters are generated for each and every character.

Abstract: The present invention is carried out by modifying input data by the degree grade with respect to membership functions. The degree of fit measure is then used to obtain the information amount of each phenomena. A relational coefficient, which indicates the relatedness of a number of phenomena (for example, phenomena linked by an AND), is obtained. The degree of fit, information amount and relational coefficient are then used to determine the possibility of a conclusion. This scheme allows the user to enhance the accuracy of the information amount at the time the data are input. It also enables the user to attain an inference result with high discriminability based upon the relatedness of a number of phenomena with respect to a single conclusion. In another embodiment, the knowledge of expert users expressing the relationships between phenomena and conclusions is stored prior to use of the device.

Abstract: When a relationship between a factor and a conclusion has occurred, data indicative of this relationship is stored in a case-history file. For example, in an apparatus which uses approximate reasoning to perform fault diagnosis, the type of a fault and its symptoms are recorded (in a repair report, maintenance report or the like) when the fault occurs. A knowledge base is revised or created by such case-history file data. The possibility of a conclusion, static information quantities, clarity of a conclusion, etc., are computed based upon such a knowledge base.

Abstract: Disclosed is an acceptor coated sheet for pressure-sensitive copying system comprising a base sheet and an acceptor layer disposed thereon, said acceptor layer being formed from an acceptor coating composition comprising(a) at least one immobilizing agent selected from the group consisting of the sulfates, nitrates, acetates and formates of zinc, aluminum and magnesium,(b) a latex of copolymer containing an unsaturated carboxylic acid as a monomer component and, if necessary, a water-soluble binder,(c) an organic acceptor, and(d) at least one pigment selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, titanium oxide, aluminum hydroxide, calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate and kaolin.
