  • Patent number: 11941868
    Abstract: An inference apparatus provides target data to multiple inference models to cause the inference models each derived from local learning data obtained in a different environment to perform predetermined inference to obtain an inference result from each of the inference models. The inference apparatus determines the value of each combining parameter using environment data, weights the inference result from each of the inference models using the determined value of each combining parameter, and combines the weighted inference result from each inference model together to generate an inference result in a target environment.

  • Publication number: 20170064819
    Abstract: In a perforation arrangement having a number of small holes through which individual substrates of aggregate substrate are connected to each other where slits are provided between individual substrates in the aggregate substrate, the centers of the small holes are arranged so as not to be aligned in a straight line in a perforation. The small holes are arranged in or in proximity to a connection portion in such a manner that the distance of the center of each small hole from the line segment between the facing ends of the slits is different. The amount of stress concentrated on a perforation can be reduced, and therefore, the amount of stress applied to the parts mounted around the perforation can also be reduced in the case where the aggregate substrate are bent to be divided.

  • Patent number: 9512851
    Abstract: If a fan motor in a stopped state remains stopped even when it is powered on, restart processing of the fan motor is carried out by rotating the fan motor forward and backward. If the fan motor rotates as a result of the restart processing, an indication to prompt replacement of it is displayed. If the fan motor remains stopped without rotating, in contrast, it is determined to be defective, and an electronic apparatus is stopped.
