Abstract:
A document/ image retrieval method for retrieving a document/image corresponding to a captured digital image from a database by comparing features calculated based on feature points of the captured digital image with features preliminarily calculated based on feature points of each of document/images stored in the database, the method comprising: extracting the feature points from the captured digital image; defining a local set of feature points for each of the extracted feature points; selecting feature points from the defined local set to define a feature point subset of the local set; determining invariant values as values characterizing the defined subset for combinations of the feature points in the subset, the invariant values being invariant to a geometric transformation; calculating a feature by combining the determined invariant values; and performing a voting process on the document/images in the database based on the preliminarily calculated features of the document/images; whereby the document/image corresponding to the captured digital image is retrieved from the database.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a neutron detector and a neutron imaging sensor which allow setting of sensitivity and time resolution through simple modification in the apparatus construction. A neutron detector includes a plurality of neutron detecting element sections, each the neutron detecting element section having; a superconducting element including a substrate having at least one of surfaces thereof formed of a dielectric material, a strip line of the superconducting material formed on the surface and electrodes formed at opposed ends of the strip line, resistance determining sections for determining generation of heat resulting from a nuclear reaction between a superconducting element in the strip line and neutrons, through detection of change in a resistance value of said strip line, heat dissipation setting sections provided on a back side portion of the substrate opposite to the surface having the strip line formed thereon, the heat dissipation setting sections setting dissipation characteristics of the heat resulting from the nuclear reaction, and the heat dissipation characteristics being differentiated from each other between/among the neutron detecting element sections.
Abstract:
[Problem] Provided is a non-peptide compound which can be used as a GAPDH aggregation inhibitor. [Solution] Provided is a GAPDH aggregation inhibitor including as an active ingredient a compound represented by the chemical formula 1 wherein R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 are each independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having a carbon number of from 1 to 10, a polysulfurized derivative thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The present compound has a GAPDH aggregation inhibitory activity to suppress intracerebral aggregation of various proteins involved in cerebral neurodegenerative diseases, thereby contributing to improvement in various brain neurological diseases associated with aggregation of these proteins such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and cerebral infarction, and prevention of advanced seriousness of these diseases.
Abstract:
An assembling apparatus (100) assembles beads (1,2) different in particle size from each other. The assembling apparatus (100) includes a substrate (10) and a photothermal light source (20). The substrate is constructed to be able to hold a sample (13) in which the beads (1, 2) are dispersed. The photothermal light source (20) irradiates the substrate (10) or the sample (13) with laser beams (201) to thereby produce a temperature difference in the sample (13).
Abstract:
A polymer membrane for cancer cell detection having a surface provided with a mold having a three-dimensional structure complementary to a portion of a steric structure of a cancer cell to be detected; a method of producing the same; and a cancer cell detection device including the polymer membrane are provided. The polymer membrane for cancer cell detection can be obtained, for example, by a producing method including: polymerizing monomers in presence of cancer cells to be detected, to form a cancer cell-containing polymer membrane having the cancer cells incorporated therein; and removing at least part of the cancer cells incorporated in the cancer cell-containing polymer membrane.
