  • Publication number: 20240144560
    Abstract: A training method that performs learning using appropriate low-quality image and high-quality image is provided. The invention is directed to a training method including executing learning by inputting a first image generated under a first image generation condition and a second image generated under a second image generation condition different from the first image generation condition to a learning apparatus that adjusts parameters so as to suppress an error between an input image and a converted image, in which the second image is selected such that an index value extracted from the second image is the same as or has a predetermined relationship with an index value extracted from the first image, or the second image is output from a second image generation tool different from a first image generation tool for generating the first image.

  • Patent number: 9278595
    Abstract: A suspension arm mounting structure comprises: an arm body section (14) which is disposed between a wheel and a vehicle body and which is configured from a plate-shaped member; a rubber elastic body (46) which is provided between the arm body section (14) and the vehicle body; and a shaft section (16) which is extended from the arm body section (14) in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, is press-fitted or fitted in the through-hole (48) of the rubber elastic body (46), and has a tube-like shape or a closed cross-sectional shape. The shaft section (16) has a pressing section (52) which causes both end surfaces of the plate-shaped member to face each other and press against each other so that the opposing end surfaces are in contact with each other so as to press against each other.
