  • Publication number: 20190291569
    Abstract: A vehicle cooling system includes a circulation flow path section which has a first flow path section and a second flow path section, and a solenoid valve which can switch between an open state in which the first flow path section and the second flow path section are connected and a closed state in which the first flow path section and the second flow path section are blocked. The circulation flow path section includes a valve body accommodating section configured to include a first accommodating section and a second accommodating section which connects the first flow path section and the second flow path section in the open state, and a connection flow path section whose one end is connected to the first flow path section. The other end of the connection flow path section opens to the first accommodating section.

  • Patent number: 10325674
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a phylogenetic tree can be created on the basis of frequency data regarding a large number of mutations detected from the samples of a cancer. Each sample to be analyzed contains a mixture of plural clones having different genomes. Mutations having about the same frequencies are grouped to make plural groups, and an analysis is executed based on data listing the mutation frequencies of individual groups (called mutation group frequency data). It is assumed that pairs of clones corresponding respectively to mutation groups such that frequencies of one group is equal to or greater than that of another in all the samples have parent-child relations, and a graph structure having the clones as vertices and the parent-child relations as edges is created.

  • Patent number: 9416892
    Abstract: An electromagnetic valve includes a pressing member fixed farther towards an electromagnetic movable section side than a valve chamber in a nozzle. The pressing member is fixed to a plunger farther towards the side where the plunger is pressed by the pressing member than a position where the pressing member is fixed to the nozzle. Thus, a magnetic circuit defined by magnetic flux that is generated from a magnet is prevented from being located at a portion not related to an attractive force between a core and the plunger such that it is possible to effectively utilize the magnetic flux as an attractive force between the core and the plunger.

  • Patent number: 8321485
    Abstract: To achieve high speed document search, an inverted index is compressed at high compressibility by an encoding method decodable in a high process speed. In compressing an identification number of a document to obtain a byte sequence by the variable byte method, w bits are used to represent the number of occurrences of the indexing term in the document, and x bits are used to represent additional information of the posting, where x and w are integers given as parameters. When the number of occurrences cannot be represented within w bits, a certain value indicating a numeric value that cannot be represented by w bits is stored is written to the said w bits, and anther byte sequence that represents the value by the variable byte method follows. Additionally provided is a means for reading a compressed posting from any position of a list of postings called inverted lists, allowing a binary search on an inverted list.

  • Patent number: 7984044
    Abstract: In document search for searching a document by use of a query formula composed of a Boolean formula of keywords, a plurality of query formulas arriving at about the same time from a plurality of users are efficiently processed. A system or a program for searching documents includes: a query formula controller for sorting a plurality of query formulas into a plurality of query formula sets based on predicted search speeds of the respective query formulas; and a search unit for searches for the plurality of sorted query formula sets sequentially from the set having the fastest predicted search speed, and for, in each search processing, merging the query formulas in the corresponding query formula set into a formula and thereby searching from the merged formula.

  • Patent number: 7966307
    Abstract: A document search apparatus capable of an index-type search and a scan-type search performs a search in a combination of the two search types while compensating for the disadvantages of the two search types with each other. A search query for index-type search and a search query for scan-type search are constructed based on a search query consisting of a logical formula of keywords. Then, a character 2-gram for performing an index search is set to shorten the whole search time, and the index-type search is performed. Finally, a scan-type search is performed on this search result of the index-type search.
