  • Patent number: 11934446
    Abstract: An information providing system includes a content association database storing external information, in which content is divided in a chunk structure, and chunk reference information, in which reference information having a different attribute than the content is divided in a chunk structure, in association with each other. An external information similarity calculation database is built on machine learning using the external information. A processor acquires specific external information, and compares the external information with the acquired specific external information. The processor looks up the external information similarity calculation database, and calculates a similarity between the external information and the specific external information, when the external information does not match with the acquired specific external information.

  • Publication number: 20240010193
    Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus includes a host vehicle position recognizer, a moving object recognizer, a map database, an influence recognizer configured to recognize an influence of a moving object around the host vehicle traveling along a target path of the host vehicle, and a vehicle controller configured to decelerate the host vehicle to avoid collision with the moving object based on the influence. Map information includes area information regarding a plurality of areas on the map for specifying the moving object that is a target of recognizing the influence. When the host vehicle position satisfies predetermined host vehicle position conditions set in advance for each area, the influence recognizer recognizes the influence of the moving object present in the area where the host vehicle position satisfies the host vehicle position conditions, based on the host vehicle position, the area information, and the recognition result from the moving object recognizer.

  • Publication number: 20230033090
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus outputs operational information as information regarding a first operation and a second operation performed by an operator on an object as an operation target, the information processing apparatus including a scene estimator, a chunk estimator, a transition destination suggestion unit, and an output unit. The scene estimator obtains first images as images of a scene in a state where the operator performs the first operation and the second operation, and estimates the scene by using a first learned model describing an association between the first image and a scene ID that uniquely indicates the scene. The chunk estimator obtains second images as images of an object of the first operation and the second operation, and estimates a chunk by using one of a plurality of second learned models that store an association between the second image and one or a plurality of meta IDs for chunk.

  • Patent number: 11520822
    Abstract: A content model data base stores past target information, which includes past first video information acquired in advance, reference IDs, which are linked with the past target information, and which correspond to contents, and three or more levels of degrees of content association between the past target information and the reference IDs. A first acquiring unit acquires the target information from a user terminal, a first evaluation unit looks up the content model database and acquires ID information, which includes the degrees of content association between the target information and the reference IDs, and a judging unit judges the ID information. Contents that correspond to the ID information are output to the user terminal based on the result of judgment by the judging unit.
