A game system displaying a three-dimensional game space on a display includes a housing held by a player, a tilt sensor provided on the housing, a viewpoint coordinates determination mechanism for determining viewpoint coordinates in accordance with an output value of the tilt sensor, and a game image generation processing mechanism for generating a game image based on the viewpoint coordinates determined by the viewpoint coordinates determination mechanism. The game system allows the player to feel as if the three-dimensional game space is tilted in accordance with a tilt of a game device, etc., with a minimal processing burden.

A new recommendation technique, referred to as "personality diagnosis", that can be seen as a hybrid between memory-based and model-based collaborative filtering techniques, is described. Using personality diagnosis, all data may be maintained throughout the processes, new data can be added incrementally, and predictions have meaningful probabilistic semantics. Each entity's (e.g., user's) reported attributes (e.g., item ratings or preferences) may be interpreted as a manifestation of their underlying personality type. Personality type may be encoded simply as a vector of the entity's (e.g., user's) "true" values (e.g., ratings) for attributes (e.g., items) in the database. It may be assumed that entities (e.g., users) report values (e.g., ratings) with a distributed (e.g., Gaussian) error. Given an active entity's (e.g., user's) known attribute values (e.g., item ratings), the probability that they have the same personality type as every other entity (e.g., user) may be determined. Then, the probability that they will have a given value (e.g., rating) for a valueless (e.g., unrated) attribute (e.g., item) may then be determined based on the entity's (e.g., user's) personality type. The probabilistic determinations may be used to determine expected value of information. Such an expected value of information could be used in at least two ways. First, an interactive recommender could use expected value of information to favorably order queries for attribute values (e.g., item ratings), thereby mollifying what could otherwise be a tedious and frustrating process. Second, expected value of information could be used to determine which entries of a database to prune or ignore-that is, which entries, which if removed, would have a minimal effect of the accuracy of recommendations.

Systems and methods for simulating user interaction with virtual objects in an augmented reality environment are provided. Three-dimensional point cloud information from a three-dimensional volumetric imaging sensor may be obtained. An object position of a virtual object may be determined. Individual potential force vectors for potential forces exerted on the virtual object may be determined. An individual potential force vector may be defined by one or more of a magnitude, a direction, and / or other information. An aggregate scalar magnitude of the individual potential force vectors may be determined. An aggregate potential force vector may be determined by aggregating the magnitudes and directions of the individual potential force vectors. It may be determined whether the potential forces exerted on the virtual object are conflicting.

A digital imbalance correction device and method are provided including an input unit to receive first input signals. A time-to-frequency-domain-transformer performs a transformation of the first input signals from time-domain into frequency-domain. A subtractor receives second input signals and outputs a gain difference as a function of frequency at its output. A cross-correlator receives third input signals based on the input signals, and outputs a cross-correlation of the third input signals. A gain corrector receives a fourth input signal based the associated first input signal. A gain of the fourth input signal is corrected based on the power difference spectrum. A phase corrector receives a fifth input signal based the associated first input signal. A phase of the fifth input signal is corrected based on the cross-correlation output, such that the phase of the fifth input signal is in quadrature relation to the other one of the first input signals.

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and apparatus for improving the delivery of web content that has been authored for multiple devices. In certain embodiments, an intermediary device such as a proxy server determines the characteristics of a client device requesting multi-device content, obtains and examines the multi-device content, and in view of the particular requesting client device removes portions that are irrelevant for that device. Doing so can accelerate delivery of the content by reducing payload and relieving the client device of the processing burden associated with parsing the content to make that determination itself, among other things.

Provided is a method of producing a semiconductor package including at least two rows of leads in which the leads of each row separately connecting a semiconductor chip to an external substrate. The method includes: forming a lead frame, the lead frame including a die pad and a plurality of leads arranged about the die pad; attaching an adhesive tape to a surface of the lead frame covering at least substantially the die pad and the plurality of leads; removing portions of the leads and the adhesive tape disposed in a dividing region and thereby separating at least some of the plurality of leads to form multiple rows of leads; and mounting a semiconductor chip on the die pad, electrically connecting the semiconductor chip with the lead frame, and molding the lead frame and the semiconductor chip to provide a semiconductor package.

Presented herein are systems and methods to facilitate interactions in an interactive space. Interactions may include interactions between one or more real-world objects and one or more virtual objects. The interactions with a virtual object may be facilitated through the use of a secondary virtual object that may be provided as part of the virtual object. Interactions with the secondary virtual object may translated into interactions with the virtual object.
