An information processing apparatus includes a matching design element determination unit and a creation unit. The matching design element determination unit determines a combination of matching design elements that meets a base impression evocation criterion, by combining plural design elements which define a design and correspond to a base style having the base impression and plural design elements which correspond to an auxiliary style having an auxiliary impression different from the base impression of the base style. The creation unit creates a design sample by using the combination of the matching design elements.

An information processing system includes a memory portion that stores each scene of image information of a given space captured by an image capturing portion in association with positional information on an object existent in the given space, a receiving portion that receives information that specifies the object as a search request, and a search portion that searches the image information stored in the memory portion for a scene where the object is existent in a given position on the basis of the search request.

Information processing system and information processing method

An information processing system includes a recognition portion that recognizes a document shown in a given space, a detection portion that detects an event occurring in the given space, and an index-giving portion that gives information on the event detected by the detection portion to the information on the document recognized by the recognition portion, as an index for search.

An information retrieval system includes an information extracting portion that extracts episodic information to be set as a cue for searching conference record information that stores contents on a conference for personal information, and an information storage portion that stores the episodic information extracted from the information extracting portion and the personal information associated with the episodic information. The personal information of a participant is searched for, personal information being obtained from the conference that a system user attended.

Information retrieval system

An information processing system includes a memory portion that stores image information of a space in association with a document, the image information being captured by an image capturing portion, the document being used while the space being captured, a receiving portion that receives information that specifies the document as a search request, and a search portion that searches the image information stored on the memory portion for a scene associated with the document specified by the search request, on the basis of the search request.

An interactive man-machine interface system displays an animated face that exhibits human-like emotions. The system stores data representing each of eight basic emotions and continually changes the level of each basic emotion depending on environmental stimuli, internal reactions between the emotions, and the passage of time. The environmental stimuli include, for example, specific comments made by the user that are recognized by the system, the successful completion of a task, and failure to complete a task. The degree of internal reactions between emotions is programmed before operation. For example, an increase in anger causes a predetermined decrease in joy. Finally, all eight basic emotions are made to reduce in intensity over time. Based on a database of facial expressions, the system displays a composite expression corresponding to the intensity levels of all eight basic emotions.
