A system or method consistent with an embodiment of the present invention is useful in analyzing large volumes of different types of data, such as textual data, numeric data, categorical data, or sequential string data, for use in identifying relationships among the data types or different operations that have been performed on the data. A system or method consistent with the present invention determines and displays the relative content and context of related information and is operative to aid in identifying relationships among disparate data types. Various data types, such as numerical data, protein and DNA sequence data, categorical information, and textual information, such as annotations associated with the numerical data or research papers may be correlated for visual analysis. A variety of user-selectable views may be correlated for user interaction to identify relationships that exist among the different types of data or various operations performed on the data. Furthermore, the user may explore the information contained in sets of records and their associated attributes through the use of interactive 2-D line charts and interactive summary miniplots.

Data processing, analysis, and visualization system for use with disparate data types

An image processing apparatus according to the present invention comprises a reference image extracting section for extracting a reference image as an object for display; a parameter managing section for managing a plurality of parameters and their values for the extracted reference image; a parameter setting section for selecting any two arbitrary parameters and setting the selected parameters as scales for the vertical axis and horizontal axis; a peripheral image preparing section for preparing peripheral images each obtained by changing the values of the two parameters selected for the reference image by a specified amount; and an image display controller for providing display controls by correlating parameter values of peripheral images to those for the vertical axis and horizontal axis of the reference image so that the reference image is displayed at a specified position of a screen and also peripheral images thereof are displayed surrounding the reference image in n layers.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and a computer-readable storage medium containing a computer program for image processing recorded thereon

A computer software product for allowing simultaneous multi-level collaboration, including in real time between an author and a group of reviewers invited by the author to comment on a document stored in a computer file. The computer software enables each reviewer to view the document and make changes thereto which are stored in a secondary data file without modifying the contents of the original document. The author receives and views the secondary data files from the reviewers and selectively incorporates the changes into the document. Each reviewer may invite an unlimited number of sub-reviewers to review the document, the comments of each sub-reviewer similarly being stored in a secondary data file wherein only the author may edit the document directly.

Collaborative document development and review system

An internet target marketing system, method, and computer program for distributing online advertising to viewers based upon the viewers' interests is provided. The system, method, and computer program may involve identifying one or more document-related concepts derived from analysis of content of a web document capable of being displayed to the user, identifying one or more advertisement-related concepts relevant to an advertising, comparing the one or more document-related concepts to the one or more advertising-related concepts to determine a relevance, and selecting the advertising based on the relevance.

Method, system and computer code for content based web advertising

The electronic document database searching system displays search results using a display attribute that corresponds to the attribute of the string in each original electronic document. The system also displays the search results using a display attribute that varies in accordance with the frequency of occurrence of the searched string in each original electronic document

Method and system for searching and for presenting the search results in an attribute that corresponds to the retrieved documents

Image editing method and apparatus which facilitate image editing operation and improve the efficiency thereof by enabling selective use of many editing histories or command strings, used in the past, with ease. A command string used in an editing period for one image is registered as a macro, in correspondence with associated information related to the edited image. When the next image is edited, associated information of registered command strings are displayed, as buttons, in list form. A user can discriminate the contents of the command strings and can visually discriminate a command string appropriate to the currently-edited image by observing the associated information. In response to the user's button selection operation, a corresponding command string is applied to the currently-edited image. Information to easily discriminate the contents of command strings, such as thumbnails of edited images, identification information such as serial numbers allotted to edited images, is used as the associated information.

Image editing method and apparatus

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily change the editing contents by storing previously the past input commands about the edited images and showing these commands in a list on a display screen. SOLUTION: An object management part 14 manages the editing data on every object that is generated by the command which is inputted via an input part 12, and an input command string storage part 15 stores the command input as the log information. An image generation part 16 composes the screen information which is to be shown on a screen of a display part 13 and refers properly to the object data of the part 14 and the command input log information of the part 15. When a tool button related to a command that calls out a coloring operation is clicked via a mouse, a color painting palette appears on a display screen. Then an object is colored with a clicking operation of a color button. At the same time, the part 15 accumulates the contents of executed commands.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily and quickly retrieve the objective document for a user by displaying the list of a retrieval result in the mode that the user can recognize an optimum at a glance. SOLUTION: When a first character string is inputted from an input means 1, a storage means for storing a document page including the second character string in a document, the attributes (font and character size, etc.) of the character string and the character string is retrieved by a retrieval means 3. For the retrieved second character string corresponding to the first character string by the retrieval means 3, a display processing means 5 makes the document page including the second character string be displayed and outputted to an output means 6 by the same attribute as the description of the second character string in the document. Namely, a list display is performed for each document page including the second character string by the font and the character size of the description of the second character string in the document. From this display, with what meaning the character string is used can be predicted by a user.
