The ground-view feature extractor (2020) extracts features from the ground-view image (20) to generate feature maps without attention mechanism and feature maps with attention mechanism. The aerial-view feature extractor (2040) extracts features from the aerial-view image (30) to generate feature maps without attention mechanism and feature maps with attention mechanism. The determination unit (2060) computes a similarity score, which indicates a degree of similarity between the ground-view image (20) and the aerial-view image (30), based on the generated feature maps. Then, the determination unit (2060) determines whether the ground-view image (20) matches the aerial-view image (30) based on the similarity score.

Abstract

By processing an image in which a plurality of articles (such as products) placed on a shelf are captured, an image processing unit (120) determines the article name (such as the product name) of each of the plurality of articles captured in the image. Determining an article name also includes determining identification information tied to the article name. When a specific condition is satisfied for an article the article name of which is indeterminable by the image processing unit (120) (hereinafter described as an undetermined article), an article inference unit (130) infers the article name of the undetermined article to be the article name of an article positioned adjacent to the undetermined article.

Abstract

This selection assistance device includes a matching degree calculation unit, a generation unit, a conversion unit, an extraction unit, and an output unit. The matching degree calculation unit calculates the matching degree of information on treatment for each patient with respect to a selection criterion of a clinical trial patient. The generation unit generates a graph indicating the relationship between the patients on the basis of the attributes of the patients and the data relating to the treatment. The conversion unit converts the matching degree with respect to the selection criterion and the graph into feature vectors of each patient. The extraction unit extracts, on the basis of the feature vectors of each patient, a patient matching the clinical trial from among the patients as a candidate for the clinical trial patient. The output unit outputs information on the extracted candidate for the clinical trial patient. By using the selection assistance device, decision making regarding extraction of a clinical trial patient can be appropriately performed.
