Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program that improve a user's degree of satisfaction in a seat or area for viewing an event. In step S102, matching between a feature of each seat assigned to a user in a target event and a feature of a user is performed. Then, a target user who is a target for recommending each seat of the target event is selected. In step S104, a recommended seat and the target event are recommended to a selected target user. The present technology can be applied to a system that performs recommendation of an event, for example.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, an apparatus and a recording medium are provided for predicting a score associated with a first user and with a first item are provided. The method comprises: storing one or more first scores in a first database, each first score being associated with a user and with an item; calculating, based on the first scores, one or more latent user features associated with one or more users including the first user and one or more latent item features associated with one or more items including the first item; calculating, based on the latent user features and the latent item features, a second score associated with the first user and with the first item; and providing the second score as a predicted score associated with the first item and with the first user. The recording medium comprises instructions to configure the apparatus to perform the method.

Abstract: A highly homogeneous library can be obtained by cleaving a genomic DNA by a sequence-independent cleavage method, such as sonication. By selecting satellite sequences from such a library, efficiency of isolation is improved. Thus, an efficient method of isolating microsatellite sequences, which are useful as DNA markers, is provided.
