Abstract

PURPOSE: To vary degrees of dimming according to information about humans in living space detected by a human body sensor. CONSTITUTION: A human body detecting portion 1 divides a place where a blind surface is installed into a plurality of lattices to detect the position and number of humans present at each lattice point. A neuroprocessor control portion 4 stores the relationship between information set by a slat-angle-setting input portion 2 and by a blind-length-setting input portion 3 and information about the position, number, behavior and momentum of humans detected by the human body detecting portion 1, and computes an optimum slat angle and an optimum blind length to match information about any unknown position and number of humans, etc. A slat varying portion 5 and a blind driving portion 6 are controlled in accordance with the slat angle and the blind length which are determined by the neuroprocessor control portion 4.

As for the action, the action expected for each position of the room is stored, and the action of the human body is determined by comparing the existing position information of the human body with the stored action information.

FIG. 2 shows an example of a three-layer network including an input layer, a middle layer, and an output layer having only forward coupling. Generally, as a supervised learning algorithm for a multilayer network, Rumelhar is used.
The back propagation method proposed by T. et al. is known. In this method, a pattern of an input signal and a teacher signal is given to a neural network, and learning is repeatedly performed in the opposite direction from the output layer to the input layer so as to reduce the square error between the actual output pattern and the teacher pattern. If the error is small and the learning is successful, the correct output can be obtained for the learned pattern. Further, due to the generalization ability, a value close to a correct output can be obtained if the input pattern that has not been learned is close to the learned pattern.
