  • Publication number: 20240126952
    Abstract: In an arithmetic operation system, an evaluation unit calculates a difference amount between a teaching signal and an estimated signal. The teaching signal is a spatial distribution signal observed with respect to a spatial structure on a path of an emission wave in a target space (i.e., a teaching space) by using the emission wave. In addition, the estimated signal is a signal for comparing with the teaching signal, and is an estimated spatial distribution signal. The estimated signal is formed based on estimated density associated to each sample point acquired from a spatial estimation model, by a sampling unit inputting information about a position of each of a plurality of sample points on the path to the spatial estimation model. An updating unit updates the spatial estimation model, based on the difference amount.

  • Publication number: 20240126953
    Abstract: In an arithmetic operation system, an updating unit updates a spatial estimation model, based on a first difference amount and a second difference amount. The first difference amount is a difference amount between a first teaching signal and a first estimated signal. The first teaching signal is a spatial distribution signal observed by a first sensor with respect to a spatial structure on a path of an emission wave in a target space (i.e., a teaching space) by using the emission wave. The second difference amount is a difference amount between a second teaching signal and a second estimated signal. The second teaching signal is an observed signal observed by a second sensor different in type from the first sensor. The second estimated signal is a signal for comparing with the second teaching signal, and is a signal of a form similar to that of the second teaching signal.

  • Publication number: 20240125935
    Abstract: In an arithmetic operation system, an evaluation unit calculates a difference amount between a teaching signal and an estimated signal. The teaching signal has a value that is obtained by integrating spatial distribution signals observed by a sensor using emission waves for a spatial structure along a region of interest in an emission wave region in which emission waves are emitted from a plurality of emission reference directions and reach the sensor. The region of interest is a curved line region or a curved surface region intersecting the plurality of emission reference directions. This estimated signal is calculated by integrating a plurality of pieces of estimated density of a plurality of sample points obtained from a spatial estimation model by having a sampling unit input information about a position of each of the plurality of sample points on the region of interest to the spatial estimation model.
