Abstract

In the training device, the partial image generation means generates partial images smaller than an input image from the input image. The feature space generation means generates a feature space to which feature values of the partial images are mapped, for each input image. The training data generation means generates training data by acquiring training partial images from the partial images based on the feature space. The training means trains a prediction model for predicting a probability that a predetermined feature is included in the training partial image using the training data. The prediction means performs prediction for the partial images included in the input image using a trained prediction model. Further, the training data generation means acquires training partial images used as training data in a next training, based on predicted values for the partial images in the feature space. Thus, the training of the prediction model by the training means is repeated while the training partial images are updated.

Abstract

The present invention is capable of accurately estimating the density of an object by measuring cosmic rays that are transmitted through the object. A spectrum acquiring unit acquires a first energy spectrum of first cosmic rays that arrive at a predetermined zenith angle without being transmitted through an object, and acquires a second energy spectrum on the basis of a measurement result of second cosmic rays that arrive at the predetermined zenith angle after being transmitted through the object. A spectrum comparison unit compares the first and second energy spectra to analyze the energy loss of the second cosmic rays due to the transmission through the object. An estimating unit calculates, on the basis of the energy loss analysis result, the amount of matter on a path through the object along which the second cosmic rays were transmitted, and calculates an estimated value of the density of the object by dividing the amount of matter by the length of the path.

Abstract

This Aerial User Equipment (UE) receives system information via a broadcast in a first cell. If system information does not contain first information indicating whether or not the first cell is barred for Aerial UEs, the Aerial UE does not handle the first cell as a barred cell in cell selection or cell reselection. The foregoing may, for example, contribute to solving a problem related to realizing a mechanism for enabling Aerial UEs to respect a no-transmit zone (NTZ).

Abstract

A control device generates a state sequence including a plurality of states from a state at a movement source to a state at a movement destination of a physical object. The control device determines the occurrence of an error in an operation of a robot based on a result of comparing the state of the generated state sequence with a state of the physical object during the operation of the robot operating according to the state sequence. The control device changes the state sequence so that a recovery operation for recovering from the error is performed in a case where it is determined that the error has occurred.
