Abstract: To improve accuracy in a document search for a document that includes a typographical error. A document retrieval device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a misidentification table storing a correctly identified character string and a misidentified character string. The document retrieval device includes a document searcher. The document searcher obtains a search character string, and retrieves the search character string from both a document and a character string that is obtained by changing the misidentified character string included in the document to the correctly identified character string.

Abstract: A document retrieval apparatus includes a processor which receives an input of a keyword, acquires an author's name and a document file from a digital document database which stores document files of text data obtained by performing a character recognition process with respect to document image data of handwritten documents, and names of authors who wrote the handwritten documents, references an associating keyword database which stores information associating the authors' names, keywords, and associating keywords, to acquire an associating keyword of the input keyword, from the received input keyword and the acquired author's name, searches the acquired document file, using the input keyword and the acquired associating keyword, and outputs a search result of the searching.

Abstract: In a vehicle control system, when an occupant visually recognizes a signboard and signboard course information is included in signboard information corresponding to the signboard, the signboard information is displayed on a display device. When the signboard course information out of the signboard information is visually recognized continuously, a control device generates course information based on the signboard course information. The generated course information is output to a vehicle control ECU, and course change processing based on the course information is performed by the vehicle control ECU.

Abstract: A control device in a vehicle display system includes: a gazed image display output unit configured to display a normal gazed image in a part of each of main screen areas; a gazed image visual recognition determination unit configured to determine, based on a line-of-sight state, whether an occupant visually recognizes a normal gazed image in one of the main screen areas; and a main screen area selection unit configured to select, based on an input unit, the main screen area corresponding to the normal gazed image determined to be visually recognized by the occupant. Earlier selection display information displayed in an earlier selection main screen area selected earlier by the main screen area selection unit is displayed in a later selection main screen area selected later.

Abstract: An in-vehicle system includes: a detection unit that detects visual line information of a passerby on the basis of an image obtained by capturing an image in front of a vehicle; a decision unit that decides a motion of the vehicle on the basis of the visual line information of the passerby which is detected by the detection unit; and operation units which perform processing corresponding to the motion of the vehicle which is decided by the decision unit. As a result, the in-vehicle system can attain an effect capable of improving communication between the vehicle and the passerby on the basis of the visual line information of the passerby.

Abstract: An in-vehicle system includes: a first detection unit that detects an illumination state of another vehicle on the basis of an image obtained by capturing a nearby image of a vehicle; a second detection unit that detects a traffic situation of the vehicle; an estimation unit that estimates intention of a signal of the other vehicle on the basis of the illumination state of the other vehicle that is detected by the first detection unit and the traffic situation of the vehicle that is detected by the second detection unit; and operation units that perform processing corresponding to intention of a signal of the other vehicle that is estimated by the estimation unit. As a result, it is possible to attain an effect in which it is not necessary for the in-vehicle system to perform communication with the other vehicles to confirm the signal of the other vehicles.
