  • Publication number: 20220073112
    Abstract: An imaging disturbance detection device includes an estimation information obtaining unit that obtains pieces of disturbance estimation information indicating whether or not there is imaging disturbance on each of a plurality of imaging devices installed on a railroad car, which is estimated by comparing luminance of images taken by the imaging devices with predetermined reference luminance set; and a disturbance identifying unit that identifies, when it is estimated, on the basis of the obtained pieces of disturbance estimation information, that there is imaging disturbance on a first imaging device, whether or not there is imaging disturbance on a first imaging device on the basis of which one, presence or absence of imaging disturbance, is estimated for a second imaging device, and a length of a period during which it is continuously estimated that there is imaging disturbance on the first imaging device.

  • Publication number: 20210150437
    Abstract: An installing environment estimation device (10) includes: a data acquisition unit (11) to acquire data collected by an apparatus such as a sensor and camera of a mobile terminal carried by a maintenance personnel member to a building site, the data concerning an installation place of equipment which is installed at the building site; a feature quantity extraction unit (12) to extract a feature quantity of the acquired data; and an installing environment estimation unit (13) to estimate an installing environment of the equipment based on a classification model, by collating the feature quantity of the data with the classification model. The classification model is set for an item of the feature quantity of an individual apparatus. A range that the feature quantity which expresses an installing environment of equipment can have is set in the classification model.

  • Patent number: 10891332
    Abstract: A control method analysis unit acquires a correspondence relation between signs and model numbers from an apparatus table of an instrumentation diagram, and acquires signs and apparatus symbols, and connection relation among apparatuses, from a drawing of the instrumentation diagram. Subsequently, the control method analysis unit acquires an apparatus classification drawn on the diagram by searching an instrumentation apparatus classification database based on the model numbers, and decides a temperature control method employed by an instrumentation indicated in the instrumentation diagram, from the apparatus classification and the connection relation. The control method analysis unit then links the decided temperature control method to the instrumentation diagram accumulated in a case database. A search processing unit extracts a corresponding instrumentation diagram by searching the case database based on a temperature control method designated as a search condition.
