Abstract

This information processing system has a control unit. The control unit generates a learning model for estimating a skin classification of a user from at least one of skeleton information indicating the characteristics of a skeleton of the user or skin color information indicating the characteristics of the color of a skin of the user, which is acquired by analyzing a face image of the user, using skin classification information for classifying the skin of the user, which is generated by the analysis of user biometric information provided by a plurality of users, as training data. The control unit receives an input of the face image of the user, analyzes the received face image to acquire at least one of the skeleton information and the skin color information, and uses the learning model to output the skin classification information estimated from at least one of the acquired skeleton information or skin color information.

Abstract

In one aspect, the present disclosure is an enzyme sensor 1 for measuring the concentration of a substance subject to measurement in a solution containing the substance subject to measurement. The enzyme sensor 1 includes: a working electrode 2 and a reference electrode 3 each capable of coming into contact with the solution; an enzyme and a reversibly redox-capable redox substance each fixed to the working electrode 2; and a dV/dt output mechanism 9 capable of outputting, over time, the time differential value dV/dt of the potential difference between the reference electrode 3 and the working electrode 2 caused by concentration changes in oxidized and reduced forms in the redox substance caused by a reaction between the substance subject to measurement and the enzyme. The present invention pertains to an enzyme sensor in which the potential difference shifts to the noble side when the redox substance is oxidized by the reaction between the substance subject to measurement and the enzyme, and shifts to the base side when the redox substance is reduced by the reaction between the substance subject to measurement and the enzyme.

[Problem] To efficiently screen for an alloy useful as a solid catalyst. [Solution] In an embodiment of the present invention, screening is performed for an alloy that causes an intended catalytic reaction. According to the present invention, for each of a plurality of candidate elements, basic information including the state of each reaction substrate in a non-adsorbed state, and the energy and vibration frequency of each reaction substrate in an adsorbed state and of each atom constituting the reaction substrate, in a plurality of elementary reactions, is created, and a plurality of activation energies, a plurality of differential energies, and reaction rates are determined. Linearity is evaluated for each activation energy and for the plurality of differential energies, and a feature amount energy from which high linearity is obtained for all of the plurality of activation energies is selected from the plurality of differential energies. Distribution information indicating the distribution of the reaction rates with respect to the feature amount energy is created. A plurality of compositions are predicted for which the reaction rate is increased by formation of an alloy. A stability index and an activation index are calculated for each of a plurality of slab models created for the plurality of compositions.

Abstract

An annular holder (1), which is attached around the waist of a wearer to hold an absorptive pad (11) in a state of being attached to the wearer, has a height direction (HD) along the height direction of the wearer and a circumferential direction (CD) around the torso, and includes a stress relief member as a constituent member for providing stretchability in the circumferential direction (CD), wherein stress is relieved when the holder (1) is held at a temperature of 40℃, a relative humidity of 80%, and an elongation factor of 1.5, which are standard wear conditions assuming a worn state, for four hours. The holder (1) includes a waist region (21) disposed on the waist of the wearer, and an ilium bone region (23) corresponding to an area extending from the crest of ilium to the anterior superior iliac spine of the wearer. The stress relief member is disposed at least in the waist region (21). Preferably, when the holder (1) is held under the standard wear conditions for four hours, the stress relief rate for the waist region (21) is greater than the stress relief rate for the ilium bone region (23).
