20090157707 | PATTERN IDENTIFICATION UNIT GENERATION METHOD, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, COMPUTER PROGRAM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A pattern identification unit generation method of generating a pattern identification unit in which a weak discriminator array obtained by cascade-connecting a plurality of weak discriminators branches, and weak discriminator arrays are connected to respective arms after branching, evaluates based on a processing result obtained by inputting a set of evaluation data to the weak discriminator array whether or not a weak discriminator array after branching reaches the number of stages to be connected. The number of stages of weak discriminators to be connected without branching as the weak discriminator array is determined based on this evaluation result. | 06-18-2009 |
20100272351 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING OBJECT IN IMAGE DATA - Learning is sequentially executed with respect to weak discriminators based on learning data held in a storage device. Upon learning, an evaluation value for the weak discriminator is calculated. It is discriminated, based on a shift of the evaluation value, whether or not the learning is overlearning. If it is discriminated that the learning is overlearning, new learning data is added. Thus, the overlearning is easily detected and the learning is efficiently executed. | 10-28-2010 |
20110010317 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS ENABLING DISCRIMINATOR TO LEARN AND METHOD THEREOF - An information processing apparatus includes a preliminary learning unit configured to learn a preliminary discriminator for a respective one of a plurality of combinations of variations in variation categories in a discrimination target pattern, a branch structure determination unit configured to perform discrimination processing using the preliminary discriminator and to determine a branch structure of a main discriminator based on a result of the discrimination processing, and a main learning unit configured to learn the main discriminator based on the branch structure. | 01-13-2011 |
20110163902 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - An information processing apparatus, includes: a plurality of processor means respectively including storage means for storing analog information and comparison means for comparing analog information stored in the storage means with an inputted reference analog value; input means for inputting the reference analog value to the plurality of processor means while changing the reference analog value in synchronization with a clock signal; and counter means for updating a count value in synchronization with the clock signal and outputting the count value when the analog information and the reference analog value become consistent at a corresponding comparison means. | 07-07-2011 |
20120059517 | OBJECT GRIPPING SYSTEM, OBJECT GRIPPING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM AND ROBOT SYSTEM - A system comprises: a measurement unit adapted to measure a position/orientation of at least one target object based on an image obtained by capturing the at least one target object; a selection unit adapted to select at least one grippable target object based on the position/orientation; a determination unit adapted to determine, as an object to be gripped, a grippable target object in a state with a highest priority from the at least one grippable target object based on priorities set in advance for states including gripping positions/directions; a gripping unit adapted to grip the object to be gripped in the state with the highest priority; and a changing unit adapted to change the state of the gripped object, to a state in which the gripped object is assembled to the other object. | 03-08-2012 |
