Abstract: The chroma of a specific color can be emphasized with respect to an object without affecting the color of illumination light. An illumination light generator generates illumination light to be radiated to the object by adding or subtracting, to or from a reference illumination light spectrum that is an illumination spectrum serving as a reference, an element spectrum in accordance with designated conditions with respect to chroma adjustment from among a plurality of element spectra that are spectra for being added or subtracted to or from the reference illumination light spectrum and for performing chroma emphasis of a specific color without affecting an illumination light color.

Abstract: A signal output unit outputs an acquired signal. A signal attribute value display unit displays a value of an attribute related to an element constituting a target represented by the acquired signal or a signal generation source in a state in which a change instruction of the value of the attribute is able to be received. A changed attribute value acquisition unit acquires a changed value of the attribute when the change instruction of the value of the attribute is received. A change unit changes the value of the attribute for which the change instruction has been received on the basis of the changed value of the attribute acquired by the changed attribute value acquisition unit. A changed signal output unit outputs a changed signal in which the value of the attribute has been changed.

Abstract: A signal generation device includes a variable generation unit and a signal generation unit. The variable generation unit generates a plurality of latent variables corresponding to a plurality of features of a signal. The signal generation unit inputs, to at least one neural network learned in advance, a latent variable representing attributes obtained by converting a part of the plurality of latent variables by an attribute vector representing attributes of a signal to be generated and the other part of the plurality of latent variables representing an identity and generates the signal to be generated using the at least one neural network.

Abstract: A signal output unit outputs an acquired signal. A signal accumulation unit accumulates signals. A signal attribute value display unit displays a value of an attribute related to an element constituting a target represented by the acquired signal or a signal generation source in a state in which an instruction for changing the value of the attribute is able to be received. A changed attribute value acquisition unit acquires a changed value of the attribute when the instruction for changing the value of the attribute is received. A signal retrieval unit retrieves, from the signals accumulated in the signal accumulation unit, a signal similar to a changed signal when the value of the attribute has been changed on the basis of the changed value of the attribute acquired by the changed attribute value acquisition unit.

Abstract: A signal retrieval device includes a modification unit and a signal retrieval unit. The modification unit modifies a value of an attribute of a target represented by an input signal or a stored signals stored in a signal storage unit or a value of an attribute relating to a signal generation source of the input signal to acquire a plurality of modified values of the attribute. The signal retrieval unit retrieves a stored signal of the stored signals similar to the input signal using the input signal or the stored signals in which the attribute is modified according to each of the plurality of modified values of the attribute acquired by the modification unit.
