Publication number: 20150049935Abstract: Provided is a region extraction system that uses an image data analysis process, which has overcome the problem of false positives in region extraction and assists in more accurate region extraction. A luminance distribution-analyzing unit (105) is used to determine a parameter of unknown quantity for extracting a region of interest. The luminance distribution-analyzing unit (105) searches a luminance distribution management database (106) for a region, which has a luminance distribution similar to the region of interest and is easily extracted, as a similar area. The region of the similar area is extracted using a region extraction pre-processing unit (107) and the value of the parameter of unknown quantity is determined on the basis of an image feature value calculated from the region extraction results.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2012Publication date: February 19, 2015Applicant: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Shuntaro Yui, Kazuki Matsuzaki, Junichi Miyakoshi

Publication number: 20090034620Abstract: A motion estimation method capable of reducing the amount of calculation as compared to a full search method. In the method, a coarse search block and fine search blocks are defined. The fine search blocks are given by dividing the coarse search block into a plurality of blocks so that the fine search blocks are contained in the coarse search block. A sparsely interpolated image and a densely interpolated image are defined. A first search is performed using the defined coarse search block and the defined sparsely interpolated image. A second search is performed using the defined coarse search block and the defined densely interpolated image. With regard to search blocks belonging to the fine search blocks, only a surrounding region of an optimal point obtained in the first search is searched.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2006Publication date: February 5, 2009Applicants: MegaChips Corporation, National University Corporation KOBEInventors: Mayumi Okumura, Masaki Hamamoto, Yuichiro Murachi, Junichi Miyakoshi, Masahiko Yoshimoto, Tetsuro Matsuno

Patent number: 4303553Abstract: A neutron protection thermal insulating material is obtained by adding a boron compound and, if necessary, a hydrous compound, to chrysotile asbestos fibers. To form the material, the asbestos is opened with the use of a surface active agent in the presence of water. The boron compound is added and air bubbles are incorporated into the mixture which is then dried, molded and compressed. The resulting product is characterized by a construction wherein the opened asbestos fibers are oriented in substantially parallel relation to each other and in the direction perpendicular to the compression direction and air pockets are flatly arranged between the fibers and substantially parallel thereto to reduce thermal conduction through the material in the direction parallel to the direction of compression.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 1978Date of Patent: December 1, 1981Assignees: Nippon Asbestos Co., Ltd., Japan Nuclear Ship Research and Development AgencyInventors: Susumu Aoki, Hirosi Asaumi, Shigeo Take, Junichi Miyakoshi, Hiroshi Takemoto, Kenta Kabayama
