Abstract:
A control apparatus for a gas sensor with a built-in heater is provided which can prevent damage to, deterioration of, and reduction in accuracy of detection of, a gas sensor. When an ignition switch is turned ON, supply of electricity to a heater 27 starts, and when the temperature in the vicinity of a gas sensor 15 (gas temperature of gas detection chamber 24) Ts becomes greater than a predetermined temperature #Ti at start, or when a predetermined electricity supply time after start of supply of electricity to the heater 27 has elapsed, the gas sensor 15 is started. The flow of off-gas is started simultaneously with starting of the gas sensor 15, or after starting. When the ignition switch is turned OFF, the flow of off gas is stopped, and the supply of electric power to the gas sensor 15 is stopped. In a state where a temperature difference ΔT between the gas temperature Ts inside the gas detection chamber 24, and an upstream gas temperature Tg is maintained within a predetermined range, the supply of electricity to the heater 27 is stopped after a predetermined time has elapsed after operation of the gas sensor 15 is stopped.

A liquid crystal display device capable of preventing the occurrence of crack in a capacitor insulating film due to laser marking is provided. The liquid crystal display device includes pixels arranged in a matrix in a display region above a substrate, a thin film layer formed in a non-display region excluding the display region, and a transparent insulating film extending from the display region to the non-display region and formed on the thin film layer, in which the transparent insulating film includes at least an organic insulating film formed of an organic compound for planarizing a surface of the substrate, an inorganic insulating film which is a thin film formed on the organic insulating film and formed of an inorganic compound and formed with an opening extending to the organic insulating film in a region above the thin film layer, and a transparent electrode layer which is formed in the opening of the inorganic insulating film to cover the organic insulating film exposed from the opening of the inorganic insulating film.
Abstract:
By a program stored in a computer program product for tracking a photographic subject, a computer executes a template matching step of performing template matching upon each frame of an input image with each of a plurality of template images and extracting a plurality of regions whose similarities with each of the template images are the highest from within the input image, a classification step of classifying the extracted regions into regions that are to be used for specifying a photographic subject position within the input image and another region, on the basis of the mutual distances between the extracted regions within the input image, a specification step of specifying the photographic subject position, on the basis of the positions of the regions that have been classified by the classification step as the regions that are to be used for specifying the photographic subject position within the input image, and a photographic subject tracking step of tracking the movement of the photographic subject over the image consisting of a plurality of frames, by tracking the photographic subject position between frames.
Abstract:
A subject tracking method, includes: calculating a similarity factor indicating a level of similarity between an image contained in a search frame at each search frame position and a template image by shifting the search frame within a search target area set in each of individual frames of input images input in time sequence; determining a position of the search frame for which a highest similarity factor value has been calculated, within each input image to be a position (subject position) at which a subject is present; tracking the subject position thus determined through the individual frames of input images; calculating a difference between a highest similarity factor value and a second highest similarity factor value; and setting the search target area for a next frame based upon the calculated difference.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pyrimidine compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof represented by the following formula [I] wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification and a method of therapeutically or prophylactically treating an undesirable cell proliferation, comprising administering such a compound. The compound of the present invention has superior activity in suppressing undesirable cell proliferation, particularly, an antitumor activity, and is useful as an antitumor agent for the prophylaxis or treatment of cancer, rheumatism, and the like. In addition, the compound of the present invention can be a more effective antitumor agent when used in combination with other antitumor agents such as an alkylating agent or metabolism antagonist.
Abstract:
A cooling structure for electronic equipment including a plurality of electronic devices superposed on each other, each of the electronic devices having a lower part where an air ventilation part configured to ventilate air so as to cool the electronic device is provided, the cooling structure includes an air intake and exhaust hole forming part which is formed at an upper part of a first one of the electronic devices and below the air ventilation part of a second one of the electronic devices provided on the first electronic device. Air outside of the electronic equipment is taken into an inside of the second electronic device or air inside of the first electronic device is exhausted to the outside of the electronic equipment via the air intake and exhaust hole forming part, so that an amount of the air ventilated inside of the first electronic device is controlled.
Abstract:
In a display device which arranges a memory part for every display pixel, an erroneous operation of the memory part and the power consumption can be reduced. In a display device provided with a display panel which includes a plurality of display pixels, video lines which apply video data to the display pixels, and scanning lines which apply a scanning voltage to the display pixels, the display pixel includes a memory part which stores the video data, a pixel electrode, and a switching part which selectively applies a first video voltage or a second video voltage which differs from the first video voltage to the pixel electrode in response to the video data stored in the memory part.
Abstract:
A system for allocating fuel stations to movable bodies includes an onboard unit, a station unit and a server. The onboard unit stores and updates information about a movable body. The station unit disposed at a fuel station which supplies fuel to the movable body stores and updates information about the fuel station. The server, which is connected to the onboard unit and the station unit through networks, allocates certain fuel stations to the movable body which requires fueling, based on the information about the movable body and the fuel station. When a difference of distance resulting from a subtraction, a movable distance minus a station distance, is smaller than a certain threshold, the server determines a necessity of supplying fuel to the movable body, allocating a fuel station which keeps an amount of stored fuel necessary for fuelling the movable body.
