Abstract: To activate communication between an autonomous operation body and a user. Providing an information processing device that includes: an application control unit that controls operation of an application relating to communication between an autonomous operation body and a user; and a reflection unit that causes the autonomous operation body to reflect an operation performed by the user in the application. In the information processing device, the application control unit controls operation of an avatar imitating the autonomous operation body, and the reflection unit causes the autonomous operation body to reflect a reward obtained by the avatar on the basis of the operation performed by the user.

Abstract: A video decoding apparatus (100) according to an implementation of the present invention includes: a dummy-packet inserting unit (105A) which inserts a dummy packet (221) into a boundary between a section (TS1) and a section (TS2) in a video stream (131); a DEMUX unit (106) which separates a video stream (132) into which the dummy packet (221) is inserted, into visual streams (133 and 135) and audio streams (134 and 136); a seamless detection unit (107) which detects a position at which the dummy packet (221) is inserted, as the boundary in the visual streams (133 and 135) and the audio streams (134 and 136); and a decoding unit (109) which decodes the visual streams (133 and 135) and the audio streams (134 and 136) and performs seamless reproduction on the boundary detected by the seamless detection unit (107).

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a combination comprising (a) at least one c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor and (b) 4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-ylmethyl)-N-[4-methyl-3-(4-pyridin-3-yl)pyrimidin-2-ylamino)phenyl]-benzamide or a pyrimidylaminobenzamide of formula I wherein the radicals and symbols are as defined herein, or, respectively, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and its use for the manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors.

Abstract: A moving picture decoding apparatus capable of performing time-division decoding processing with the least possible idle time by making the best use of a decoder includes: a buffer memory storing moving picture streams of channels; a video decoder which decodes the moving picture streams of channels read out from the buffer memory; a frame buffer which stores moving picture data of the moving picture streams decoded by the video decoder; a display control unit which reads out the moving picture data from the frame buffer and outputs a moving picture signal corresponding to the moving picture data; and a decoding control unit which causes the video decoder to decode the moving picture streams in a time division manner by switching the moving picture streams which the decoding control unit supplies from the buffer memory to the video decoder.

Abstract: One object of the present invention is to increase stability for fixing a cutting tool with a holder formed of a sleeve, and to improve machining accuracy of a boring tool using the holder and prevent chipping of a cutting edge. In a holder for a boring tool holding a bar-shaped cutting tool by receiving it in a center hole in a sleeve and clamping it with clamp means, the sleeve is provided with a slit cutting a region from the center hole in the sleeve to an outer periphery surface thereof lengthwise from a front end to a longitudinal partway portion of the sleeve, and is further provided with a fastener tightening a slit-formed portion of the sleeve to change an inner diameter of the center hole.
