Abstract: An information processing apparatus in embodiments performs at least one trained machine learning model that includes an encoder and a decoder. The encoder receives inputs of text information including designation of a place, a first image that is an image captured by an image capturing apparatus and that includes the place, and a second image obtained by dividing a region for every identical object in the first image, and outputs tri-modal features that have been generated to include visual features of the first image that has been captured, visual features of the second image obtained by dividing the region, and language features of the text information. The decoder outputs a region on the first image corresponding to the designation of the place in the text information, by using the tri-modal features.

Abstract: A control device includes a target position setting part, a trajectory estimation part, and a target position selector. The target position setting part determines a target position of an actor of a robot based on a form of an object located in an operating environment of the robot. The trajectory estimation part estimates a predicted trajectory of the actor based on motion of the actor up to the present, and estimates a trajectory of the actor from a current position to the target position as an approach trajectory using a predetermined function. The target position selector selects one target position based on a degree of similarity between the predicted trajectory and each of the approach trajectory.

Abstract: A first mask layer (13) and a second mask layer (12) are transferred and imparted to a target object (20) using a fine-pattern-forming film (I) provided with a cover film (10) having a nanoscale concavo-convex structure (11) formed on one surface thereof, a second mask layer (12) provided in a recess of the concavo-convex structure (11), and a first mask layer (13) provided so as to cover the concavo-convex structure (11) and the second mask layer (12). A surface of a fine-pattern-forming film (II) to which the first mask layer (13) is provided is pressed toward a surface of the target object (20), energy rays are irradiated to the first mask layer (13), and the cover film (10) is then separated from the second mask layer (12) and the first mask layer (13). Pressing and energy ray irradiation are each performed independently. The target object is etched using the second mask layer (12) and the first mask layer (13).
