  • Publication number: 20240096145
    Abstract: A noise generation cause identifying method and a noise generation cause identifying device are provided. A response correcting process corrects a sound signal obtained through a sound signal obtaining process based on obtained model information so that a frequency response of the obtained sound signal approaches a frequency response of a learning sound signal. A variable obtaining process obtains a variable output from a map by inputting the corrected sound signal to the map. A cause identifying process identifies a generation cause of a sound picked up by a microphone using the variable obtained through the variable obtaining process.

  • Publication number: 20230419752
    Abstract: A mapping, which is as a subject of learning, is a learning model that uses a sound signal as an input variable and outputs a variable indicating the cause of a sound in a vehicle. A learning method includes a signal correction process that corrects a sound signal by superimposing a noise signal on the sound signal, and an update process that updates the mapping through machine learning in which the sound signal corrected in the signal correction process serves as training data and a cause of a sound paired with the sound signal serves as teaching data.

  • Patent number: 10681243
    Abstract: There is provided a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing application program executable by a processor of an information processing apparatus which communicates with a scanner having specific information. The specific information indicates whether the scanner is configured to generate a specific file for which specific processing is executable by a specific program. The application program, when executed by the processor, causes the information processing apparatus to: obtain an image read by the scanner; obtain the specific information from the scanner; and generate a file indicating the obtained image. In a case that the specific information is first information, the application program causes the information processing apparatus to generate the file with usable information embedded therein. In a case that the specific information is second information, the application program cause the information processing apparatus to generate the file without the usable information embedded therein.
