  • Publication number: 20250036500
    Abstract: An information processing device includes a processor configured to: determine, by using an anomaly detection model, whether an anomaly has occurred in a first system; when determination is made that the anomaly has occurred in the first system, presume whether the anomaly is influenced by a failure in an external system connected to the first system; and when presumption is made that the determined anomaly is influenced by the failure in the external system, update the anomaly detection model to reduce influence of the failure in the external system.

  • Patent number: 8320748
    Abstract: An audio/video information recording/reproducing device capable of easily implementing a post-recording function on an optical disk by using even a low-cost disk drive having a comparatively low-speed seek time. When recording a video file, it is recorded on an optical disk continuously for a duration equivalent to more than three times a seek time. When recording dubbing audio, it is recorded continuously only with constant data size at the same time with the reproducing of the recorded video file, thereby enabling concurrent real-time continuous reproducing and recording. Accordingly, concurrent reproductions of a video file and an audio file are ensured when reproducing dubbing audio.

  • Patent number: 8208797
    Abstract: The present invention provides a recording apparatus that generates a transport stream so that a boundary between recording units (aligned units) and a file division point (i.e., a boundary between GOPs) always coincide with each other without obtaining information on the file size or the like. When generating a transport stream by time-division multiplexing transport packets, n or more transport packets (e.g., null packets N) other than a video packet are inserted between a video packet group generated from a single encoding unit (GOP) and a video packet group subsequent to the video packet group. When d indicates the data length of the transport packet, h indicates the data length of a fixed-length header added to each of the transport packets before being recorded on a data recording medium, and L indicates a recording unit length to the data recording medium, L?(n+1)×(d+h) is satisfied.
