Abrégé

A maximum value of an input value obtained by a comparison circuit 403 is subtracted from each input value by a subtraction circuit 404, an approximate value of an exponential function value corresponding to divided values a1, a2, and a3 obtained by slicing the obtained difference value a for each bit range is read from look up tables table1, table2, and table3 by a look up table reference circuit 406, and is multiplied by a multiplication circuit 408 to calculate an approximate value of the exponential function value having the difference value a as an exponent. At the time of multiplication, a fraction is rounded off, and the number of bits is equalized by a right shift operation. Using a total value of the approximate values obtained by a summing circuit 409, each approximate value is divided by the divider circuit 410 to obtain an approximate value of the softmax function value. In this way, a look up table size used for approximation calculation of the exponential function value of the softmax function can be suppressed without extremely deviating a sign of an error using a fixed-point number or an integer as the input value.

A reference amount of shift in emission line wavelength is calculated by a polynomial in which a characteristic of a wavelength shift that occurs is represented by a linear or higher polynomial with a variable indicating the wavelength or a parameter relating to the wavelength. Each coefficient of the polynomial is determined based on the calculated measured amount of shift in emission line wavelength and the reference amount of shift in emission line wavelength, and the wavelength of the incident light is corrected based on the determined polynomial.

Abrégé

An image forming apparatus that forms an image on a recording medium includes a detection section, an acquisition section, and a hardware processor. The detection section detects a physical property of the recording medium. The acquisition section acquires predetermined data related to the recording medium from an outside of the image forming apparatus. The hardware processor controls an operation in the image forming apparatus based on a detection value detected by the detection section and the predetermined data acquired by the acquisition section.

Abrégé

A recording material conveyance apparatus includes a hardware processor and a measurement section. The hardware processor is capable of performing switching control of, in response to, among a plurality of recording material housing sections that house recording materials, a first recording material housing section becoming out of recording material while a recording material fed from the first recording material housing section is being conveyed, selecting a second recording material housing section to cause a recording material housed in the second recording material housing section to be conveyed. In the switching control, the hardware processor selects the second recording material housing section based on a measured physical property value of each of the recording materials of the recording material housing section The measurement section measures the physical property value of each of the recording materials of the recording material housing section. The physical property value corresponds to a physical property.
