Abstract: In an image determining apparatus, a subject-shape presuming unit extracts a shape of a specified subject to be determined based on subject-area position information and structure/surface-height map information, a subject-feature-point extracting unit extracts a feature point based on the shape of the subject to be determined. Further, an other-object-influence determining unit generates number information based on camera data, the feature point, and the height of a group of surrounding objects, an other-object-influence index calculator calculates an other-object-influence index based on the number information, and a display processor displays video picture data based on the other-object-influence index on a display device.

Abstract: Camera installation flexibility on a moving object can be increased and accuracy in identifying the moving object improved by identifying a moving object origin trajectory as a potential position at which the moving object origin exists under the following conditions: 1) A distance between the moving object origin position and a reference virtual camera is constant. 2) A direction of virtual camera VCij as viewed from the moving object coordinate system (moving object origin Om) is constant (angle formed by two lines that direct to marker Pj and to the moving object origin position Cij as viewed from the virtual camera VCij is constant.) 3) Virtual camera VCij exists on marker circle (angle between markers Pi and Pj as viewed from virtual camera VCij is constant). It is possible to identify the position of moving object M by calculating the intersecting point of each moving object origin trajectory T upon multiple trajectories of moving object origin existing.

Abstract: In analysis of a panorama image that is created by processing a series of picture frames, a partial image to constitute a part of the panorama image is extracted from one picture frame among the picture frames, optical flows of the one picture frame is calculated, each of the optical flows with each pixel in the partial image are associated with each other, and a distance to a subject appearing in the partial image is calculated based on the associated optical flows.

Abstract: The position detecting device includes a travel speed detecting unit, an optical flow calculating unit, a distance calculating unit, and a position detecting unit. The travel speed detecting unit detects a travel speed of a mobile object moving on an arbitrary route. The optical flow calculating unit calculates an optical flow of one side of the mobile object, based on a series of frame images of the one side. The one side is any one of a left side and a right side of the mobile object. The distance calculating unit calculates a distance to a subject on the one side based on the travel speed and the optical flow. The position detecting unit detects a current position of the mobile object based on point data of the subject and the distance to the subject.

Abstract: An agglomerate comprising fine primary particles of an inorganic compound except for silica is provided, satisfying dp50: the average particle diameter [?m] of the agglomerate measured by Microtrac-FRA, a laser analysis type particle size distribution measurement apparatus, ?: the value calculated by dividing the difference between the particle diameter d90 of cumulative 90% minus sieve particles of the agglomerate and the particle diameter d10 of cumulative 10% minus sieve particles of the agglomerate calculated by the Microtrac-FRA, Sw: the BET specific surface area [m2/g] of the agglomerate, St: the tensile strength [MPa] required to break the agglomerate with the particle diameter 4 ?m, and, Sta: the tensile strength [MPa] required to break 30% of the particle diameter of the agglomerate with the particle diameter 4 ?m, both St and Sta being measured by a micro compression testing machine manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation.

Abstract: When a new document is registered in a document storage and management section, it is determined whether or not an external device available for using the document exits, and registration of the new document by the document storage and management section is enabled only when the available external device exists.

Abstract: The present invention is intended to provide a program management system for, upon activation of a program updating operation, automatically performing according to a mode selected by preparing plural kinds of program updating modes and previously selecting one of them. There is disclosed a program management apparatus adapted to perform a program updating operation of a program by downloading the program from a server which manages an information of the program to a predetermined terminal device, comprising: pattern setting means, which retains plural kinds of patterns each serving as a mode for giving an information inclusive of a program and updating such a program, for allowing a user to select one of the patterns so as to previously set it as a selected pattern; and program updating means for, upon activation of a program updating operation, automatically performing said program updating operation according to said selected pattern set by said pattern setting means.

Abstract: A plurality of documents are stored, edited, and managed and a display device is caused to display an image of the each document. When storing the documents newly generated or edited, a substitute image of the document is generated instead of the image to be displayed on the display device.

Abstract: When document data of a document comprising at least one page is input, the input document data is stored as a document file for each document. Moreover, image data corresponding to the document data of each stored document file is produced. On the other hand, text-form document data is produced from the input document data. At least one character string of a date form is detected from the text-form document data. Characters of the detected character string are recognized. A result of the recognition is determined as the preparation date of the document file corresponding to the input document data. The produced image data is displayed while successively switched every document unit, and in order in accordance with the determined preparation date.

The produced image data is displayed while successively switched every document unit and page unit in accordance with user's predetermined operation. Furthermore, the document data corresponding to the displayed image data is extracted from the respective stored document data in accordance with user's specific operation, and the extracted document data is displayed.

Abstract: A document-managing-apparatus includes a storage unit which stores file-managing-information on a file of data constituting a document, which is a managing-target, and a storage unit which stores, by arranging in a particular order, document-managing-information on plural documents stored in the storage unit, position-information showing a display-position in a searching-screen of the display-unit being stored in the storage unit while related to the document when the storage unit receives a direction to search the document to display the documents in the arranged order in the searching-screen. When the apparatus receives a search refinement direction that narrows down the document from the plural documents, the apparatus searches the document, included within a previously set display-position in the display-positions shown by the position-information, from the plural documents.
