Abstract: A video content creating apparatus includes a computer. The computer registers photographic image data input from a photographic input device and meta-information set in relation to the data in a database. After retrieving photographs based on the meta-information, the apparatus selects the photographs to be used for a reminiscence video and decides the reproduction order of the photographs. After registering a BGM playlist, the apparatus reproduces the photographs and BGM for creating the reminiscence video. If there are any regions defined by the meta-information, the apparatus displays the regions on a monitor while aligning them in sequence according to the meta-information on them. Upon completion of generation (rendering) of a series of reminiscence video contents, the apparatus creates the reminiscence video by saving the rendering results in Flash movie format, for example.

Abstract: In a sound generating apparatus, a sound generating space, a sound, and a method for generating a sound, a sound is generated which has a frequency within a first frequency range beyond a predetermined audible frequency range and up to a predetermined maximum frequency, and which is non-stationary so as to change in a micro-temporal area in a second frequency range beyond 10 kHz. Then, the generated sound is applied to a person, thereby increasing cerebral blood flows of the person. This causes improvement and enhancement of the person's state of mind and body, so as to relieve stresses, thereby relaxing the person.

Abstract: When information representing an application problem is entered from an input unit (4), a hardware specification interpretation unit (3) calculates an operation result representing how the consequent hardware operates with respect to the application problem according to the information representing the application problem and the hardware specification description provided from the hardware specification description unit (1). A fitness calculation unit (5) calculates a fitness representing how much the calculated operation result fits the application problem. A description modification unit (6) modifies the current hardware specification description on the basis of a fitness evaluation which is the calculation result.

Abstract: By applying an appropriate current to a virtual curved surface between a current source and an observation surface, it is possible to restore an electromagnetic field generated by the current source. As the curved surface approaches the current source, the current spread over the curved surface becomes smaller. According to this fact, Beyes estimation is performed for t he current source to restore the observation data. In this estimation, the mode l posteriori probability becomes maximum when the curved surface includes the current source. That is, by checking the model posteriori probability, it is possible to estimate the position of the current source including the depth direction. Moreover, when it is possible to simultaneously use observation data obtained by other observation means, the information is involved in the hierarchical pre-distribution when performing the Bayes estimation so as to perform estimation with a higher accuracy.

Abstract: An apparatus enabling automatic determination of a portion that reliably represents a feature of a speech waveform includes: an acoustic/prosodic analysis unit (92) calculating, from data, distribution of an energy of a prescribed frequency range of the speech waveform on a time axis, and for extracting, among various syllables of the speech waveform, a range that is generated stably, based on the distribution and the pitch of the speech waveform; cepstral analysis unit (94) estimating, based on the spectral distribution of the speech waveform on the time axis, a range of the speech waveform of which change is well controlled by a speaker; and a pseudo-syllabic center extracting unit (96) extracting, as a portion of high reliability of the speech waveform, that range which has been estimated to be the stably generated range and of which change is estimated to be well controlled by the speaker.

Abstract: A system for measuring tongue pressure comprising a thin palate floor plate (1) whose shape matches with the shape of the palate, thin pressure sensor sheets (2a, 2a, 2b) having a plurality of pressure sensing cells secured to the lower surface of the palate floor plate (1), an attaching means (3) for attaching the palate floor plate (1) to a proper position in the palate, and a cable (4) for transmitting information from the pressure sensing cells of the pressure sensor sheets (2a, 2a, 2b) to an apparatus outside the palate. The cable (4) is led out of the oral cavity extending around the back of the final gum tooth and passing along the vestibule of the oral cavity when the palate floor plate (1) is attached in the palate. Each of the pressure sensor sheets (2a, 2a, 2b) comprises two resin backings structured in one body and each having a plurality of electrodes covered with a pressure-sensitive ink layer on one side of the backing. Between the backings, air is contained gastightly. The electrodes are opposed to each other via the pressure-sensitive ink. Each pressure sensing cell is constituted by the portion corresponding to the opposing electrodes and the pressure-sensitive ink layers.

Abstract: A key inputting device includes a vowel switch for inputting vowels, and consonant switches for inputting consonants. The vowel switch is displacable in five directions, each consonant switch is displacable in three directions, and displacement directions of each switch are allotted to each letter of alphabet corresponding to at least a movement of articulatory organs when pronouncing each letter, that is, a movement or a location of a jaw, a throat, a tongue, lips. The vowel switch is operationable by a thumb, and the consonant switches are operationable by an index finger, a middle finger, a ring finger, and a little finger, respectively.
