  • Publication number: 20240134064
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an electronic control device capable of suppressing variations in the position of a work machine calculated based on satellite signals received by a GNSS terminal due to changes in the GNSS communication environment, and eliminating the position error after improvement of the communication environment in a shorter time than before. The electronic control device includes: a positioning quality determination section 211 that determines whether the positioning quality is good or poor based on GNSS information; a traveling state determination section 212 that determines the traveling state, including a stop state, based on the velocity of the work machine; and a smoothing section 213 that performs smoothing processing to the GNSS information.

  • Publication number: 20240119620
    Abstract: A posture estimation apparatus includes: a position calculation unit that calculates, for each joint of each of persons detected from image data, a provisional reference position of the person, based on a position of the joint and a displacement from the joint to a site serving as a reference for the person; and a posture estimation unit that determines a person to which the joint belongs based on the provisional reference position calculated for each joint detected.

  • Publication number: 20240078174
    Abstract: An information storage device includes a storage unit, a control unit, an allocation information storage unit, a QoS parameter storage unit, and a monitoring result storage unit. The control unit creates and manages a logical storage area using the storage area of the storage unit when a storage area allocation request is received. The allocation information storage unit stores allocation information related to logical storage areas. The QoS parameter storage unit stores quality requests expected to be satisfied for a communication for using the logical storage area. The control unit monitors the operating state and characteristics of the storage unit and the communication status, and stores the results in the monitoring result storage unit. The control unit derives internal QoS parameters to be set in the information storage device from the information stored in the allocation information storage unit, the QoS parameter storage unit, and the monitoring result storage unit.

  • Publication number: 20230316701
    Abstract: A reference state deciding device (10) according to the present disclosure includes a feature calculation unit (11) that calculates an object feature related to a target object of state determination included in a real space and an imaged space feature related to the real space on the basis of past image data of the real space imaged in the past and target image data of the real space imaged at the time of the state determination, and a reference state deciding unit (12) that decides a reference state to be used for the state determination on the basis of a relation between the object feature and the imaged space feature calculated from the past image data and the target image data.

  • Publication number: 20230298445
    Abstract: The present invention provides a learning apparatus (10) including: an acquisition unit (11) that acquires an image; a similarity computation unit (12) that computes a similarity between the acquired image, and a first image being accumulated in advance and indicating an abnormal state; a registration unit (13) that registers, as a second image indicating a normal state, the acquired image whose similarity is equal to or less than a first reference value; and a learning unit (14) that generates an estimation model for discriminating between normal and abnormal by machine learning using the first image and the second image.

  • Publication number: 20220230330
    Abstract: In an estimation device, an acquisition unit acquires a “plurality of images”. The “plurality of images” are images in each of which a “real space” is captured, and have mutually different capture times. The acquisition unit acquires information related to a “capture period length”, which corresponds to a difference between an earliest time and a latest time of the plurality of times that correspond the “plurality of images”, respectively. An estimation unit estimates a position of an “object under estimation” on an “image plane” and a movement velocity of the “object under estimation” in the real space, based on the “plurality of images” and the information related to the “capture period length” acquired. The “image plane” is an image plane of each acquired image.
