Abstract: Provided herein is a preprocessing apparatus for gas analysis that enables preprocessing for gas analysis to be performed without requiring a cryogen. A preprocessing apparatus for gas analysis 101 mainly includes a gas flow path 103, a cooling portion 105, and a plurality of valves V101 to V105 that serve as gas flow path connection changing means for changing the gas flow path. The cooling portion 105 is operable to cool the collecting portion 113, and is constituted from a heat conductor 121, a cooling device 127, and a sealed structure 129. The cooling device 127 can cooled a contact cooling section 131 to an extremely low temperature by utilizing electrical energy. The cooling device 127 is used to bring the collecting portion 113 to a first temperature at which the target gas to be analyzed is solidified, and to thereafter bring the collecting portion 113 to a second temperature at which only the target gas to be analyzed is gasified.

Abstract: Provided is an image analysis device for specifying an image region of an object being the basis for design similarity determination. An image analysis device 100 includes units 112, 113. The unit 112 moves original images Im1 and Im2 including a designated image region H with a rotationally symmetry on a first point P relative to a reference image Im2(j), calculates a correlation value cim(j) at each relative position, and detects the position of the point P in the images Im1, Im2, according to a geometric model, based on the amount of rotation ?(j) at which the cim(j) is the maximum and a vector v(j). The unit 113 specifies the range of the region H in the images Im1, Im2 based on the position of the point P and the distribution of the brightness values of pixels in the images Im1, Im2.
