Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores a dictionary selection program for causing a computer to execute a process including: determining genres indicated by moving image data for each of a plurality of sections in the moving image data, based on each of voice data and image data of the moving image data; determining quality of voice and the quality of an image for each of the plurality of sections in the moving image data, based on each of the voice data and the image data; and selecting voice recognition dictionaries that are specified, from among a plurality of the voice recognition dictionaries, based on determination results for the genres and the determination results for the quality of the voice and the quality of the image for each of the plurality of sections.

Abstract: To provide a carbon support for catalysts for fuel cells, which increases the power generation performance of fuel cells, a catalyst for fuel cells, a catalyst layer for fuel cells, and a method for producing the carbon support. A carbon support for catalysts for fuel cells, wherein the carbon support includes at least one pore; wherein a thickness of a carbon wall of the carbon support, which is derived from a three-dimensional pore structure of a silica mold obtained by pore volume measurement of the silica mold by nitrogen adsorption analysis, is 3.3 nm or more and 11.2 nm or less; and wherein a carbon wall content is more than 60.3 ml/g and less than 190.8 ml/g.

Abstract: A secondary battery with a reduced degree of increase in internal pressure over time, is provided. In a preferred embodiment, a secondary battery including: an electrode body, a battery case, an electrode terminal, and a gasket sandwiched between the battery case and the electrode terminal is provided. The secondary battery is configured such ghat a parameter K calculated using the following equation (1): K=Wi/(VrGH2) (1) (where Wi represents an initial capacity (Ah) of the secondary battery, Yr represents a volume (cm3) of void in the battery case, and GH2, represents an H2 gas permeability coefficient (cm3·cm)/(cm2·s·cmHg) of the gasket at 60° C.) satisfies 0.43×108 or more to 0.59×108 or less.

Abstract: A speech recognition method, performed by a computer, with an improved recognition accuracy is disclosed. The method includes: performing speech recognition of an input speech to acquire a plurality of recognition candidates through a plurality of speech recognition processes different from each other for a section having a reliability lower than a predetermined value; verifying similarities between each of the acquired plurality of recognition candidates and meta-information corresponding to the input speech; and determining, based on the verified similarities, a recognition result of the low-reliability section from among the acquired plurality of recognition candidates.

Abstract: A computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program for causing a first processor to execute a process, the first processor included in an information-processing system that includes a second processor to store data and receive a data transaction, and a third processor to operate as a stand-by apparatus while the second processor operates as an active apparatus, wherein the process includes generating a temporary-transaction identifier for identifying the transaction; adding the generated temporary-transaction identifier to a first request about the transaction, and transmitting the first request to the second and third processors; and upon receipt of a response to the first request from the second processor, extracting a transaction identifier for identifying the transaction and a data identifier for identifying the data from the response, adding the transaction and data identifiers to a second request about the transaction, and transmitting the second request to the second and third process

Abstract: In a DBMS, in response to a request from application programs, a base table update function updates a base table and a recovery start point, and a log recording function records update logs for the base table. Then, at predetermined timing, a backup function outputs the content of the base table to a backup file and copies the recovery start point associated with the base table to a recovery start point. Subsequently, when a user has specified a quiesce point and the base table, a copy generation function generates a target table that is a copy of the base table at the quiesce point by updating the backup file of the specified base table with ones of the update logs from the recovery start point to the quiesce point.
