  • Patent number: 12141176
    Abstract: Even when data that can belong to a new class that is not in an existing class is input, this data can be easily classified appropriately. Classification system includes input reception part, classification part, calculation part, determination part, and presentation part. Input reception part receives an input of target data. Classification part classifies the target data into any one of a plurality of classes. Calculation part calculates a feature amount of the target data. Determination part determines a possibility that the target data is classified into the new class based on a classification result in classification part and the feature amount of the target data calculated by calculation part. When determination part determines that there is a possibility that the target data is classified into the new class, presentation part presents a determination result of determination part.

  • Publication number: 20170239550
    Abstract: A training apparatus includes a display that displays a video image including an image of a moving object, a rotation speed acquirer that acquires a rotation speed of a pedal driven by a user, and a control circuit that changes a moving speed of the object in the video image. The control circuit controls the moving speed as follows. The moving speed of the object in the video image is increased at an acceleration ?1 (>0). If an increase in the pedal rotation speed occurs after the moving speed of the object is increased, the moving speed of the object is increased at an acceleration ?2 (<?1). In a case where an increase in the rotation speed of the pedal occurs after the moving speed of the object is increased at the acceleration ?2, the moving speed of the object is further continuously increased at the acceleration ?2.
