Abstract: The disclosure is inputting a first image captured an image of an authentication target; inputting a second image captured an image of a right eye or a left eye of the target; determining whether the second image is of a left eye or a right eye of the target based on information including the first image, and outputting a determination result as left/right information in association with the second image; detecting an overlap between a region including the second image and a predetermined region in the first image; calculating a verification score by comparing characteristic information that are related to the left/right information with iris characteristic information calculated from the second image, and calculating a first weighted verification score obtained by weighting the verification score with a detection result; and authenticating a target in the second image based on the first weighted verification score, and outputting an authentication result.

Abstract: An authentication system according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: at least one memory storing a set of instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the set of instructions to: track an object included in a video captured by a first capture device; detect a candidate for biometric authentication in the object being tracked; determine whether biometric authentication has been performed for the candidate based on a record of biometric authentication performed for the object being tracked; and perform the biometric authentication for the candidate based on a video of an authentication part of the candidate when the biometric authentication has not been performed for the candidate, the video of the authentication part being captured by a second capture device having a capture range including a part of a capture range of the first capture device.

Abstract: The disclosure is inputting a first image obtained by capturing an object of authentication moving in a specific direction; inputting a second image at least for one eye obtained by capturing a right eye or a left eye of the object; determining whether the second image is of the left eye or the right eye of the object, based on information including the first image, and outputting a determination result associated with the second image as left/right information; comparing characteristic information relevant to the left/right information, the characteristic information being acquired from a memory that stores the characteristic information of a right eye and a left eye pertaining to object to be authenticated, with characteristic information associated with the left/right information, and calculating a verification score; and authenticating the object captured in the first image and the second image, based on the verification score, and outputting an authentication result.

Abstract: A first-aid information provision system of the example embodiments includes: an information display device that includes first capture means for capturing an iris image, code acquisition means for acquiring a code associated with the captured iris image, and code display means for displaying the acquired code; and an information output device that includes second capture means for imaging the code displayed by the information display device, first-aid information acquisition means for acquiring first-aid information about an individual associated with the iris image by using the imaged code, and first-aid information output means for outputting the first-aid information.

Abstract: A peptide having any one of the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 1 or 13, preferably a peptide having any one of the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NOS: 2 to 9 or a peptide having any one of the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NOS: 10 and 15 to 17, is used as an active ingredient of an agent for promoting growth or differentiation of cells such as osteoblasts, chondroblasts, cementoblasts, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and periodontal ligament-derived cells.
