  • Patent number: 7584185
    Abstract: A page re-ranking system includes a super page producing part that produces a super page where page contents are combined between multiple versions for each of multiple Web pages that can be obtained as a search result page in compliance with a user's query and to which a page ranking is created, a super page analyzing part that analyzes a covering degree of a topic representation that is contained in the super page produced by the super page producing part, and a re-ranking part that grants a renewed page ranking to each of the Web pages by comparing the analysis results obtained by the super page analyzing part between the super pages.

  • Patent number: 5243861
    Abstract: A capacitive type semiconductor accelerometer has an intermediate silicon plate of n type conductivity including a movable electrode constituting a pendulum mass formed within the intermediate silicon plate and supported thereby via a beam so as to permit movement in a direction perpendicular to its plane. A first conductive island is formed within the intermediate plate and is immovably supported thereby via a first insulating leg so as to be isolated therefrom, and an upper glass plate is anodic bonded to the intermediate silicon plate. A first stationary electrode is formed on the upper glass plate at the position facing one face of the movable electrode with a predetermined gap. A lower glass plate is anodic bonded to the intermediate silicon plate and a second stationary electrode is formed on the lower glass plate at the position facing the other face of the movable electrode with a predetermined gap.
