Abstract: A document set, and history documents including documents, etc., browsed by a user are input. The document set and the history documents are each analyzed to obtain characteristic vectors. A plurality of topic clusters and a plurality of sub-topic clusters are obtained by clustering the document set. A transition structure showing transitions of topics among the sub-topic clusters is generated, and a characteristic attribute is extracted from each topic cluster and each sub-topic cluster. An cluster-of-interest is extracted in comparison among characteristic vectors of the history documents and a characteristic vector of each document included in the document set, a sub-topic cluster having transition relations with the cluster-of-interest is obtained on the basis of a transition structure owned by the cluster-of-interest, and a document included in the sub-topic cluster is extracted as a recommended document to be presented together with the characteristic attribute.

Abstract: A keyword analysis device obtains word vectors represented by the documents by analyzing keywords contained in each of documents input in a designated period. A topic cluster extraction device extracts topic clusters belonging to the same topic from a plurality of documents. A keyword extraction device extracts, as a characteristic keyword group, a predetermined number of keywords from the topic cluster in descending order of appearance frequency. A topic structurization determination device determines whether the topic can be structurized, by segmenting the topic cluster into subtopic clusters with reference to the number of documents, the variance of dates contained in the documents, or the C-value of keyword contained in the documents, as a determination criterion. And a keyword presentation device presents the characteristic keyword group in the subtopic cluster upon arranging the keyword group on the basis of the date information.

Abstract: After a probe control means causes a longitudinal wave probe to carry out transmission and reception, it slides a shear wave probe to the same position. The probe control means rotates the shear wave probe at each predetermined angle and rotates it 180° while causing it to carry out the transmission and the reception at each rotating position. A measured data analyzer 16 calculates the constant of texture induced anisotropy in a test piece from echo data when both the probes carry out the transmission and the reception. With this arrangement, it is possible to measure the residual stress of a material, in which both texture induced anisotropy and residual stress induced anisotropy mixedly exist with pinpoint accuracy by separating only the texture induced anisotropy from the material.
