2022年にOpenAIが公開したChatGPTやGPT-3.5は、プログラミングに無縁な人々にも広く浸透し、「AIの民主化」とも呼ばれる社会現象になっている。これら大規模言語モデルが生成する返答には嘘やフェイク情報が高確率で含まれるという問題はあるにせよ、非常に幅広いドメインに関して論理的な応答生成が可能である。フェイクが含まれる可能性があることを踏まえて活用すれば、議論の発散フェーズにおける発想支援や、社会課題解決に関するアイデアワークショップ(アイデアソン)などで活用できる可能性がある。また、ファシリテーターが行うような問いかけを生成したり、議論を構造化するためにも、大規模言語モデルが活用できる可能性がある。本稿では、GPT-3を活用したプロトタイプの評価実験や、ChatGPT上での社会課題解決に関する対話例を紹介し、その活用可能性を検討する。

Shinkansen trains are now being operated under the Automatic Train Control (ATC) system and are automatically decelerated and stopped at stations when necessary by the ATC system. The ATC system is based on the on-board signal transmitted from wayside equipment via track circuits. The ATC brake is activated when a train received a signal speed lower than the train speed and is released when the train speed becomes lower than the signal speed. Because the length of block section is determined by the ATC brake force in the worst case, the train normally decelerates so fast that it coasts a certain period up to the end of the block section as shown in Fig. 1.We studied the control method of on-board ATC system for Shinkansen train to shorten the operation time and reduce the adverse effects of changes in deceleration on ride comfort, while maintaining the safety and reliability of present ATC signal system. We propose an on-board pattern brake control system based on the present ATC data without changing wayside equipment. When compared with the simulated operation time under the present ATC brake control system, the operation time by this proposed method is 47.6 seconds less, after brake is applied until the train stops at the Hakata Terminal station, with series 500 Shinkansen train. This paper discusses the system and effects of the on-board pattern.

We introduce a new type system to Emfrp, a functional reactive programming (FRP) language designed for resource-constrained embedded systems. Functional reactive programming is a programming paradigm that allows concise descriptions of reactive systems such as GUIs by combining time-varying values that express values changing over time. Emfrp is a domain-specific language based on FRP, designed and developed for small-scale embedded systems. Because the language can statically determine the amount of runtime memory and guarantee the termination of reactive actions, a program written in Emfrp can safely continue reactive behaviors in resource-constrained environments. To ensure these properties, Emfrp disallows the use of recursive data types and functions. However, such restrictions often impose unnatural representations of data structures like lists or trees. The declarative characteristic of FRP and these restrictions impel us to write poorly maintainable redundant codes or deter us from writing certain types of programs. In this paper, we propose EmfrpBCT, an extended Emfrp with size-annotated recursive data types, to overcome this problem. The proposed system is more expressive than Emfrp, yet, it retains the aforementioned static properties. After explaining that through examples, we describe the features of EmfrpBCT, formalize the language, present an algorithm for statically computing the runtime memory bounds, and prove its soundness. Moreover, we implemented a compiler from EmfrpBCT to C, measured the translation time, and evaluated runtime overhead.

Micro plastics pollution is becoming a global issue and many data of that have been measured in foreign countries. In Japan some data on the micro plastics pollution of rivers or sea water have been reported, however, there are few data on the PET bottle or tap water. In order to clarify the present situation of the pollution on the tap water in Japan, we measured the number of micro plastics containing in the tap water collected at multiple places in the metropolitan area.

In an attempt to study the distribution pattern and correlation between maxillary, frontal and sphenoid sinus volume, sinus volumes were measured by coronal CT scans of the paranasal sinus. Two hundred and four maxillary sinuses of 102 patients, the frontal sinuses of 62 patients and the sphenoid sinuses of 68 patients with no inflammatory changes detectable on CT scans of the each paranasal sinus and nasal cavity were analyzed. The volumes of the maxillary sinus showed a normal distribution, and its mean volume and standard deviation were 20.5±9.2cm3. The logarithms of both frontal and sphenoid sinus volumes exhibited a normal distribution. The mean volume of the frontal sinus and the sphenoid sinus, which were calculated using logarithms of the sinus volumes statistically, were 8.3cm3 and 9.6cm3 respectively. The correlation coefficient was 0.134 between the maxillary and frontal sinus, 0.445 between the maxillary and sphenoid sinus and 0.315 between the frontal and sphenoid sinus. It is suggested that differences in the volume distribution pattern between the maxillary sinus and frontal or sphenoid sinus might be caused by differences in the growing process of each sinus.

We investigated the uniformity of content, rheological properties and chemical stability for prescription of Kindavate® ointment diluted with white petrolatum. When the ointment was levigated with white petrolatum (Propeto® for dilution) by a pharmacist or mixed by an autorotation/orbital mechanical mixer, a uniform ointment having the precise drug content could be prepared for all conditions. However, as the dilution ratio increased, the hardness of the ointment seemed to decrease based on the yield point measured with a spread meter and apparent absolute viscosity. Also, using a polarizing microscope, we observed a dispersion of oil droplets (consisting of liquid paraffin in clobetasone butyrate) in petrolatum for both Kindavate® ointment and the diluted ointment showing that the internal structure of ointment had not been affected by preparation of the diluted ointment either manually by pharmacists or using the mechanical mixer. When the diluted ointment was stored at 4 or 25°C in tight container in the absence of light, it was chemically stable for at least a month.Since our results showed that Kindavate® ointment diluted with petrolatum had a precise drug content and was stable over time, it should be feasible to prepare the ointment in advance of use.

C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12) is one of the chemokines that binds to C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) on tumor cell membranes and induces chemotaxis and/or migration. Mammary gland tumors (MGT) are the most common neoplasms in intact female dogs, with local invasion and distant metastasis regarded as problems. However, the influence of the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis on canine MGT cell migration has not been elucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the expression of CXCL12 and CXCR4 in canine MGT cells and tissues and investigate the influence of CXCL12 protein on the migratory ability of MGT cells. CXCL12 expression was evaluated in 10 canine malignant MGT tissues. CXCL12 expression in tumor cells was identified in all examined tissues; however, the staining pattern and intensity differed between the tumors. Immunocytochemistry revealed three canine MGT cell lines as CXCR4-positive. Migratory ability was evaluated using a wound healing assay, and the migration of CXCR4-positive MGT cells was significantly activated by the addition of CXCL12 protein. This influence was canceled by pre-treatment with a CXCR4 antagonist. The results of our study suggest that the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis may be associated with the migration of canine MGT.

Understanding the phylogenetic relationship between Hokkaido Ainu and Ryukyu islanders has been of great interest in human genetics, archaeology, and anthropology. We examined short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms on autosomes and Y-chromosomes for Ainu, and compared this with data from Ryukyu islanders. A statistical test for nine autosomal (A-STR) loci gave no indication that the Ainu had experienced any bottleneck effect(s). The genetic distances (Rst) based on the A-STR data consistently showed substantial differentiation between the Ainu and all other populations. The haplotype analysis based on Y-chromosomal (Y-STR) data revealed 10 distinct haplotypes found in 19 Ainu males; 7 out of 10 were Ainu-specific haplotypes, whereas two haplotypes were shared with two males from main-island Okinawa and Miyako island, respectively, indicating a strong, close relationship between the Ainu and the Ryukyu islanders. The time to the most recent common ancestor of the Y-lineages obtained in the Ainu and the Ryukyu islanders was estimated to be 37745 years ago. Overall, the A-STR showed uniqueness of the Ainu, and the Y-STR haplotypes revealed strong evidence for a link between the two indigenous populations of the Hokkaido and the Ryukyu islands.
