An apparatus and system for vehicle application management. The apparatus includes: at least one storage storing instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to perform operations including: obtaining information identifying a first plurality of vehicle applications selected by a user of the vehicle and determining, for the user, a user-specific application matrix comprising first weight values. Each one of the first weight values is for a respective one of the first plurality of vehicle applications, and each one of the first weight values is determined based on at least a frequency of use, by the user, of the respective one of the first plurality of vehicle applications. The operations also include controlling, using the determined user-specific application matrix, downloading and installation, at the vehicle, of at least one of the first plurality of vehicle applications that is not currently installed in the vehicle.

Managing installation of vehicle applications using weight values

In order to perform a discrimination calculation using a small-capacity storage unit, a discrimination calculation apparatus comprises a feature calculation unit configured to sequentially calculate a feature of discrimination target data for each hierarchical layer, a discrimination calculation unit configured to sequentially perform a partial discrimination calculation on the discrimination target data using the feature sequentially calculated by the feature calculation unit and store a result of the partial discrimination calculation in a discrimination result storage unit, and a control unit configured to control the discrimination calculation unit to perform a next partial discrimination calculation using the feature sequentially calculated by the feature calculation unit and the result of the partial discrimination calculation stored in the discrimination result storage unit and to store a result of the next partial discrimination calculation in the discrimination result storage unit.

Discrimination calculation apparatus and method thereof

To allow arithmetic processing using a plurality of processing nodes to be executed with a smaller memory size, an arithmetic processing apparatus for executing processing using a hierarchical type network formed by the plurality of processing nodes, comprises: a storage unit configured to store a parameter used by each of the plurality of processing nodes for arithmetic processing and a calculation result of the arithmetic processing in each of the plurality of processing nodes; and a buffer control unit configured to switch, based on a configuration of the hierarchical type network, a buffer system of the parameter and the calculation result in the storage unit in at least one layer of the hierarchical type network.
