Abstract

An image processing apparatus includes a feature extractor and an identifier. The feature extractor outputs a feature vector corresponding to each pixel of an input image, as intermediate output data. The identifier outputs output data in which a region type of each pixel of the image is estimated, on the basis of the intermediate output data output from the feature extractor. Thus, a region type of each region in the image is estimated with the use of the feature extractor and the identifier. Therefore, by adjusting the feature extractor and the identifier in accordance with an estimation result, it is possible to acquire an estimation result close to user recognition.

Disclosed are: a benzodithiophene derivative having an aromatic hydrocarbon group or an aromatic heterocyclic group in its center; an organic thin film transistor which has, on a substrate, at least three terminals, i.e., a gate electrode, a source electrode and a drain electrode, an insulating layer, and an organic semiconductor layer, and in which the current flowing between the source electrode and the drain electrode is controlled by applying a voltage to the gate electrode, wherein the organic semiconductor layer comprises a specific benzodithiophene having an aromatic hydrocarbon group or an aromatic heterocyclic group in its center; and an organic thin film light-emitting transistor substantially comprising the organic thin film transistor, wherein the emission of light is achieved by utilizing the current flowing between the source electrode and the drain electrode and controlled by applying a voltage to the gate electrode. It becomes possible to provide: an organic compound that exhibits a highly stable field effect mobility even when being exposed to the atmosphere; and an organic thin film transistor and an organic thin film light-emitting transistor each utilizing the organic compound.

Abstract

It is possible to provide a cyclic signal processing method, a cyclic signal conversion method, and a cyclic signal processing device which are not based on a spectrum model and can reduce the periodicity affect. Among signals having periodicity, time windows are respectively arranged so that their centers are at the division position which divides the basic frequency in the time direction by 1/n (n is an integer not smaller than 2) so as to extract portions of different ranges. For the plurality of portions extracted by the respective time windows, a power spectrum is calculated and the calculated power spectrum is added with the same ratio.
