Abstract: A document processing device includes: an input unit for receiving an input question sentence; a text analysis unit for performing a morphological analysis on a sentence received by the input unit; a hypothetical question storage unit for storing a hypothetical question sentence and an answer sentence in association with each other; a search unit for searching for the hypothetical question sentence similar to the input question sentence from the hypothetical question storage unit and obtaining an answer sentence; an output unit for outputting the answer sentence; and a normalization processing unit for performing a normalization on each word of the input question sentence and the hypothetical question sentence converted into word strings by the text analysis unit. The search unit is configured to perform a similarity determination on the input question sentence and the hypothetical question sentence whose words are normalized by the normalization processing unit.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to switch driving modes smoothly and ensure that a passenger understands driving operations controlled in the relevant driving mode and necessary driving operations.

Abstract: With conventional automatic drive control, no consideration is given to whether the driver is in a condition to be able to drive the vehicle properly when automatic driving is cancelled. Accordingly, an automatic drive control device is switchable between a manual driving mode in which driving operation by the driver of the vehicle is required, and an automatic driving mode in which driving operation by the driver of the vehicle is not required. The device is equipped with: a surrounding conditions recognition unit for recognizing surrounding conditions of the vehicle; an information notification unit for notifying the driver of the vehicle; and an automatic drive control unit for carrying out control of the vehicle in automatic driving mode, and controlling the information notification unit in such a way as to alert the driver of the vehicle on the basis of the surrounding conditions recognized by the surrounding conditions recognition unit.

Abstract: A drop in visibility of display information is prevented while securing a clear view outside a vehicle. A display information extracting unit is configured to extract a particular portion from display information, which is displayed on a transparent display provided in a vehicle, based on a color-by-color pixel count of the display information. A display information output unit is configured to output to the transparent display the display information in which the particular portion extracted by the display information extracting unit has been changed in luminance.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to appropriately display secondary information on a head-mounted display in relation to primary information displayed on a main display device even when a wearer moves or takes their eyes off the main display device. In order to achieve the above purpose, this collaborative head-mounted display system calculates the positional information of the head-mounted display wearer's gaze with respect to the primary information from a camera image acquired from the head-mounted display and the position of the head-mounted display wearer's gaze with respect to the camera image. The collaborative head-mounted display system then selects and displays the secondary information associated with the calculated positional information, and changes how the secondary information is displayed depending on whether or not the wearer is looking at the primary information.

Abstract: In order to provide a technology enabling efficient visual recognition of notification information by a user, provided is an information presentation device, including: a display adjustment unit configured to display, using processing information for displaying information based on a start condition, the information on a plurality of display areas; and a storage unit configured to store condition information associating a predetermined start condition with notification information being the information to be displayed when the predetermined start condition occurs, in which the display adjustment unit is configured to, when satisfaction of the predetermined start condition is detected: identify the display area for displaying the notification information that is associated with the predetermined start condition in the storage unit; cause display of the notification information on the display area; and restrict display on other display areas other than the display area.

Abstract: An information presentation apparatus includes: a status estimation unit that identifies one or more tasks from input information which has been input, and task information indicative of one or more tasks indicating a status; a load estimation unit that identifies one or more subtasks based on each of the identified tasks and subtask information indicative of one or more subtracts, each indicating a work element possibly executed by an operator, in the status of each task, and acquires a required load amount, which is a mental load on each of the one or more subtasks, based on the identified subtask and required subtask amount information indicative of the required load amount; a margin estimation unit that acquires a margin based on the acquired required load amount; and a presented information selection unit that selects information to be presented based on the margin.
