Publication number: 20220076161Abstract: The prediction accuracy of prediction models generated by ensemble learning is enhanced. A computer system configured to generate a prediction model for predicting an event includes: a storage unit configured to store a plurality of training data including a plurality of sample data including values of a plurality of feature variables and a prediction correct value of the event; and a prediction model generating unit configured to generate a plurality of prediction models using the plurality of training data, to thereby generate a prediction model for calculating an ultimate predicted value on the basis of predicted values of the plurality of prediction models. Prediction models generated by applying the same machine learning algorithm to the plurality of training data are different from each other in features of the event that are reflected in the prediction models.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Inventor: Shintaro TAKADA

Patent number: 10466800Abstract: An in-vehicle device includes a gesture detection unit for recognizing a user's hand at a predetermined range; an information control unit controlling information output to a display; and an in-vehicle device control unit receiving input from a control unit equipped in a vehicle to control the in-vehicle device. When the gesture detection unit detects a user's hand at a predetermined position, the output information control unit triggers the display to display candidates of an operation executed by the in-vehicle device control unit by associating the candidates with the user's hand motions. When the gesture detection unit detects the user's hand, and the user's hand has thereafter moved from the position, the information control unit changes a selection method or a control guide of the operation to be executed by the in-vehicle device control unit, which is displayed on the display, to subject matter which matches the control unit.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2016Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: CLARION CO., LTD.Inventors: Takashi Matsubara, Shintaro Takada, Naoki Mori

Publication number: 20180232057Abstract: An information processing device configured from: a vehicle-mounted device control unit that controls the overall operation of a vehicle-mounted device; a sensing unit capable of measuring the distance to an object and capable of detecting gestures; and a display unit that displays video/images. The sensing unit continuously monitors to determine the distance at which objects are located in front of the display unit, and when the intrusion of the driver's hand into a prescribed region (1) in front of the display unit is detected, the sensing unit moves a prescribed icon (displayed on the display unit) toward the driver. Furthermore, when a speaker is provided, a sound effect or a sound is output from the speaker in conjunction with the movement of the icon. When the intrusion of the driver's hand into a region (2), which is closer to the display unit than the region (1), is detected, a lower-level menu associated with the icon is displayed in a fan-like manner, and a sound effect is output from the speaker.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2018Publication date: August 16, 2018Inventors: Shintaro TAKADA, Takashi MATSUBARA, Naoki MORI
