An estimation device includes processing circuitry configured to acquire a pupil diameter of a subject whose work performance is to be estimated at a time of work and a luminance of a gaze target of the subject, calculate a variation amount of the pupil diameter of the subject from time-series data of the pupil diameter of the subject, determine whether or not the luminance of the gaze target of the subject is equal to or higher than a predetermined value, and determine that a correlation between a magnitude of the variation amount of the pupil diameter of the subject and a deterioration in the work performance of the subject is low in a case where it is determined that the luminance of the gaze target of the subject is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold.

Estimation device, estimation method, and estimation program

A task determination unit determines a type of processing being operated, on the basis of an operation situation of an existing system. A conversion unit converts voice data input during a predetermined operation of an HID into text data, and determines whether the text data is used for a command determination or a setting parameter according to operation content of the HID. A command determination unit determines a command by using the text data and the type of processing being operated, when it is determined that the text data is used for the command determination. An operation unit executes an operation corresponding to the determined command with respect to the existing system by using the text data as a parameter, when it is determined that the text data is used for the setting parameter.

Voice operation device, voice operation method and voice operation program

An estimation device includes processing circuitry configured to acquire time-series data of a pupil diameter during work of a subject of work performance estimation, smooth the time-series data of the pupil diameter of the subject by a first time window, smooth the time-series data of the pupil diameter by a second time window that is a time window larger than the first time window, calculate a difference between time-series data of the pupil diameter smoothed by the first time window and time-series data of the pupil diameter smoothed by the second time window, and estimate a level of work performance of the subject based on a magnitude of the difference between the time-series data of the pupil diameter smoothed by the first time window and the time-series data of the pupil diameter smoothed by the second time window, and output a result of the estimation.

A storage unit stores display information related to display of UI extension components of GUI components constituting a predetermined application for each user type including an implementer and a supervisor, and an operation rule that specifies an operation according to the user type when there is an input for a predetermined UI extension component. A display control unit displays, to the supervisor, a UI extension component that accepts an input as to whether or not to grant approval while referring to the display information and the operation rule when detecting an input for the predetermined UI extension component displayed to the implementer. An input execution unit executes, to a target GUI component, the input for the UI extension component made by the implementer while referring to the operation rule when detecting an input of approval for the UI extension component displayed to the supervisor.

Operation monitoring device, operation monitoring method, and operation monitoring program

An acquisition unit acquires a use frequency of a user of a UI extension component of a GUI component constituting a predetermined application and a use frequency of the user of a cooperation component which is a target GUI component for an operation of the UI extension component. A determination unit determines whether to display the UI extension component to the user based on the use frequency of the UI extension component of the user and a utilization frequency of the UI extension component calculated by using the use frequency of the cooperation component.

Display control device, display control method, and display control program

A user interface augmentation system includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to perform operations including: searching a system screen for a base point UI serving as a base point for display of an additional user interface (UI) to be added to the system screen; displaying a new screen with a transparent background in such a way as to overlap the system screen; and displaying the additional UI at a position based on the base point UI on the new screen.

A display control apparatus includes: a change detection unit that detects a change of a UI element on a target screen; a determination unit that determines a display update method among a plurality of display update methods for extended UIs based on the change of the UI element detected by the change detection unit; and a display update unit that updates display of the extended UIs by the display update method determined by the determination unit.

A peripheral information acquisition unit () acquires information relating to a first application () running in a terminal, information relating to control of the terminal, or information that can be acquired from a sensor included in the terminal, as peripheral information. The peripheral information acquired by the peripheral information acquisition unit () is accumulated in a peripheral information accumulation unit (). A dialogue interface unit () accepts input of information from a user and outputs information to the user. When the peripheral information accumulated in the peripheral information accumulation unit () and information input to the dialogue interface unit () satisfy a predetermined condition, a scenario control unit () causes the dialogue interface unit () to output information relating to execution of a second application () that is associated with the condition in advance.

Operation support system, operation support method, and operation support program

A display control device acquires event data, that is, data expressed as a set of fixed units of data, and uses the acquired event data to display an image of the event data visualized according to a predetermined visualization method. Additionally, in the case of receiving an operation of attaching an electronic label to the displayed image, the display control device stores information about the electronic label, the event data, and setting information related to the image when the electronic label was attached in association with each other in storage. Also, in the case of receiving the specification of an electronic label to be restored from among the electronic labels, the display control device acquires the data of the electronic label as well as the event data and setting information associated with the electronic label from the storage, and restores the image with the electronic label attached.

Display control device and display control method for displaying images including electronic labels

A storage unit stores a rule for specifying additional information to be displayed for each operation scene identified with a combination of states of DOM elements of a predetermined web page being represented by presence/absence or attribute values. A rule interpretation execution unit monitors the states of the DOM elements of the predetermined web page, and causes the storage unit to store the states as a context board. The rule interpretation execution unit displays, if states of the operation scene matching states of the context board stored in the storage unit, the additional information specified with the rule.

Attribute-based rules for displaying additional information

An ultrasonic meter may include, but is not limited to, an emitter that emits a series of ultrasonic burst signals towards a fluid containing bubbles and/or particles, the series of ultrasonic burst signals being reflected by the air bubbles and/or particles in the fluid to be a series of reflected signals, a receiver that receives the series of reflected signals, and a calculator that calculates a plurality of correlation coefficients by performing a correlation processing on a series of received signals outputted from the receiver, the calculator calculating a physical quantity of the fluid based on the plurality of correlation coefficients.
