  • Publication number: 20230204607
    Abstract: An integrated viewer for multiple measurements according to a first aspect includes: a storage unit that stores, for each of a plurality of types of analyzers, a type of a feature amount obtained from a measurement result of the analyzer; a display control unit that displays types of feature amounts stored in the storage unit on a display screen in a selectable manner; and a registration unit that names and registers a set of types of feature amounts selected by an operator among the types of the feature amounts. The display control unit displays, side by side on the display screen, a first display region in which the type of the feature amount is displayed in a tab for each type of the analyzers and a second display region in which the set of types of the feature amounts selected by the operator is displayed.

  • Publication number: 20230186158
    Abstract: For each of one or a plurality of types of samples, a database is constructed in which a sample identification tag and data belonging to at least two types of categories out of Categories (1), (2), and (3) are stored in association with each other. Data to be used as training data in supervised learning is selected from the database. At this time, one or a plurality of types of data is selected as an explanatory variable from one of the categories. Further, one or a plurality of types of data is selected as an objective variable from the other category. Then, training data is generated in which data corresponding to the selected explanatory variable is served as input and data corresponding to the selected objective variable is served as ground truth output.

  • Patent number: 9097697
    Abstract: A method for simulating deformation of rubber compound including silica particles and an interfacial coupling agent therefor is disclosed. Using a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM), data of STEM images of the rubber compound are acquired. Based on the STEM image data, a dataset of a 3D structure of the rubber compound is reconstructed. Based on the dataset, a model of the rubber compound is generated. Using the model on which conditions are defined, a deformation calculation is made and a physical quantity is acquired. The rubber compound model comprises a rubber component model, silica particle models and interface models surrounding the silica particle models and defined as being harder than the rubber component model.
