Abstract: Objective discrimination of a disease label of a depressive symptom with respect to an active state of a brain is achieved. One means for solving the problems of the present invention is to provide a discriminating device for assisting in determination of whether a subject has a depressive symptom. The discriminating device includes a storage device for storing information for identifying a classifier generated by classifier generation processing based on a signal obtained by using a brain activity detecting apparatus to measure, in advance and time-sequentially, a signal indicating a brain activity of a plurality of predetermined regions of each brain of a plurality of participants in a resting state, the plurality of participants including healthy individuals and patients with depression.

Abstract: When a machine body 3 of a machining center 2 is being used to machine a component based on CAM data, an in-process information processing module 1a transfers to a host computer 5 in-process information of the component which is obtained by integrally processing detection data output from a temperature sensor, a vibration sensor, etc. provided to the machine body 3, to cause the in-process information of the component to be displayed on a display of the host computer 5 in such a manner that the in-process information can be compared to CAD data. In such a manner, a person in charge of the machining center can obtain improvement information in a machining process of the component based on comparison between the in-process information and the CAD data, to thereby improve an efficiency of an experimental-production process, thus reducing a development period of a product.
