摘要:
An object detection apparatus, a program, and an integrated circuit enable the contour of an object to be detected in an appropriate manner in an image including an object and its background with almost no contrast between them in a predetermined direction of the image. A vertical direction edge extraction filter in a filtering unit extracts, from an input image, a contour component in a first direction (e.g., vertical direction) of the image. A horizontal direction continuity detection unit in the filtering unit detects, in a second direction (e.g., horizontal direction) perpendicular to the first direction, the continuity of the contour component extracted by the vertical direction edge extraction filter. An object area detection unit detects (estimates) the contour of the object in the image based on the continuity of the contour component in the second direction (e.g., horizontal direction) detected by the horizontal direction continuity detection unit.

It's an object of the invention to provide an object detection device capable of detecting an object for detection in an input image with high precision. In an object detection device 1, a detection window setting unit 11 receives a photographic image 21 photographed by a camera. The detection window setting unit 11 sets a detection window area in the photographic image 21 and generates a normal window image 22 by cutting out the detection window area from the photographic image 21. An image processing unit 12 performs image processing such as enlargement and reduction, etc. on the photographic image 21. Each modified window images 23 is cut out from each of the enlarged photographic image 21 and the reduced photographic image 21. A degree calculation unit 13 calculates matching rates indicating a possibility the object for detection in the window image for each window images on the basis of feature data 51 indicating a feature of the object for detection. A determination unit 14 determines whether or not the detection object is present in the detection window area on the basis of the matching rates of each window image.

A transmitter includes a generation section that generates a baseband OFDM signal based on transmission data, and a transmission section that transmits a communication signal that is based on a real-part signal that is obtained by removing an imaginary-part signal from the baseband OFDM signal. In the baseband OFDM signal, the data signal including the transmission data is superimposed on subcarriers that are given numbers equal to or less than N/2−1, and the data signal is not superimposed on subcarriers that are given numbers more than N/2−1, where N (N is an integer) subcarriers included in the baseband OFDM signal are numbered by integers from 0 to N−1 in ascending order with respect to the center frequency of each subcarrier.

A communication system includes information acquisition devices having facility information and an information collection device for collecting the facility information from the information acquisition devices. The information collection device requests the information acquisition devices to send the facility information by using the first communication unit and the second communication unit of the information collection device. Each of the information acquisition devices includes a communication scheme specifying section for specifying which one of the first communication unit and the second communication unit in each of the information acquisition devices has first received the request to send from the information collection device, and a communication control section for making a reply to the request to send by using the communication unit specified by the communication scheme specifying section.

A setting control apparatus includes a setting control part, a special register, and a read-out control part. The setting control part makes stored in a temporary storage part a control value used in a processing circuit, in response to an input of the control value. The special register is electrically connected to the processing circuit and serving as a storage element capable of storing the control value. The read-out control part controls a read-out operation for reading out the control value from the temporary storage part into the special register. The read-out control part performs the read-out operation at a predetermined timing after storing of the control value in the temporary storage part is completed.

An output device receives a data signal, outputs an output signal corresponding to the data signal in synchronization with a clock signal, and includes a driving unit configured to drive an output buffer that outputs the output signal. The driving unit includes a signal switching unit and first and second driving circuits that operate with the same power supply. The signal switching unit inputs the clock signal into one of the first and second driving circuits in accordance with the level of the data signal, and the one of the first and second driving circuits outputs a driving signal whose level varies in accordance with a change in the level of the clock signal to the output buffer.
摘要:
An address comparator stores an address of data read out by a host system. Also, a buffer reads out the data from a memory and stores the data. If an address of data which is expected to be newly read out by the host system is included in addresses which have already been stored in the address comparator, the host system 1 newly reads out the data from the buffer, not from the memory. As a result, it is possible to eliminate or lessen the possibility of unintentional rewriting of data which is likely to be caused due to repeated readout of data.

A differential output buffer includes first and third switches and second and fourth switches which are connected in series respectively between a first voltage source and a current source, and a replica circuit includes a second voltage source which is equivalent to a first voltage source. A current control circuit controls a current flowing to the current source in such a manner that a voltage of a third node between two resistive elements connected in series between a first node between the first and third switches and a second node between the second and fourth switches and having an equal resistance value is equal to a reference voltage, for example, and a voltage control circuit generates a control signal in such a manner that a voltage of any node excluding an output terminal of the second voltage source in the current path is equal to a second reference voltage.
