According to one embodiment, an extracted keyword setting method that eliminates complicated work in a profile setting for character recognition is provided. A profile setting method for character recognition of a server includes extracting one or more keywords from a result of character recognition processing on a document and displaying the extracted keywords in a selectable manner on a screen of an information processing device. The server accepts a keyword setting from the information processing device such that a keyword will be extracted from a document in subsequent processing based on the selected keyword(s). For example, a keyword in this context may be such things as section headings, titles, and/or information labels.

According to one embodiment, a product registration system includes a mobile terminal connected to a network to permit a customer to perform product registration operations on products for sale at a store, a store clerk terminal for monitoring customer transactions, a cart control server to register products in a transaction table in response to a product registrations performed with the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal to display a product registration screen. The cart control server also cause the mobile terminal to display a customer facial image captured by a camera of the mobile terminal or a basket image of a cart to which the mobile terminal is attached and transmits a warning notification to the store clerk terminal when a switching operation is performed to turn off the displaying of the customer facial image or the basket image on the display screen of the mobile terminal.

A printer includes a roller that conveys a recording medium; a motor that rotates the roller; a print head that prints receipts on the recording medium conveyed by the roller; a storage device that stores receipt length information including receipt lengths of a predetermined number of printed receipts; a memory; and a processor configured to execute a program that is stored in the memory to perform the steps of: calculating a representative receipt length based on the receipt lengths in the receipt length information, determining a maximum conveying speed of the recording medium for a receipt to be printed based on the representative receipt length, and controlling the motor to rotate the roller to convey the recording medium based on the maximum conveying speed.

A monitoring device includes a network interface; a memory; and a processor configured to execute a program stored in the memory to perform: acquiring activity information related to an item to be purchased by a customer and received via the network interface from a self-service point of sale (POS) terminal together with identification information of the POS terminal, the activity information including scan information related to scanning of the item by a scanner of the POS terminal and a video obtained by capturing an activity related to the item and performed by the customer at the POS terminal, detecting a position and a head orientation of the customer from the video, determining whether the customer is committing fraud based on the activity information and the position and the head orientation of the customer, and upon determining that the customer is committing fraud, causing the POS terminal to issue a notification.

A system includes a POS terminal, a sensing device, an information terminal, and a management terminal. The sensing device captures image data of a customer performing an item registration process and a payment process at the POS terminal, The information terminal performs a fraud detection process that includes acquiring the image data from the sensing device, changing a threshold from an initial threshold value in response to detection of a threshold change event during the item registration process or the payment process, detecting specific behavior of the customer from the image data by using an image recognition technique, incrementing a fraud score each time the specific behavior of the customer is detected, determining that the customer has performed a fraudulent activity when the fraud score exceeds the threshold, and transmitting a notification indicating the fraudulent activity to at least one of the POS terminal and the management terminal.

A printer (10) includes a thermal head (1) including multiple heating elements arranged in a line; a memory; and a processor (11) configured to execute a program stored in the memory to perform the steps of: obtaining print data to be printed, determining a characteristic of the print data, and controlling the thermal head to print the print data line by line using thermal history control based on the determined characteristic of the print data. The thermal history control controls an amount of heat to be generated by each of the heating elements considering an amount of heat that has been stored in the each of the heating elements during a process of printing the print data.

An information processing device includes first and second non-volatile memories, a volatile memory, and a controller configured to perform the steps of: when the information processing device is started, storing, in the first non-volatile memory, startup log data of the information processing device up to a first predetermined size, when the information processing device is restarted, storing, in the first non-volatile memory, restart log data of the information processing device up to a second predetermined size greater than the first predetermined size, cyclically storing process log data of the information processing device in the volatile memory up to a third predetermined size in an overwriting manner, the process log data chronologically following the startup log data or the restart log data; and when the information processing device is terminated, moving the process log data to the second non-volatile memory.

According to one embodiment, an information processing system includes a first storage unit that stores user information for each notification destination user and a creation unit that creates a workflow plan including a notification destination user to be used for notifications required in the workflow plan. The workflow plan is executable by a system user without requiring the user to provide user information. A second storage unit stores the workflow plan created by the creation unit. An execution unit is provided such that, when execution of the workflow plan stored in the second storage unit begins, user information of the notification destination user set in the workflow plan as the notification destination is acquired from the first storage unit and a notification to the notification destination user is sent in accordance with the acquired user information and the workflow plan.

According to one embodiment, an information processing system includes a receiving unit, an OCR execution unit, a management unit, an extraction unit, a correction candidate output unit, and a correction acceptance unit. The receiving unit receives image information. The OCR execution unit performs character recognition on the image information using OCR. The management unit stores definition data that defines a workflow based on the image information. The extraction unit extracts a usage item handled in the workflow from the definition data. The correction candidate output unit extracts a value corresponding to the usage item from a recognition result obtained by the OCR execution unit and outputs the value as a correction candidate. The correction acceptance unit accepts a correction for the correction candidate.

According to one embodiment, an information processing system includes a network, a workflow creation server accessible to a plurality of user terminals via the network, and a user setting server storing user settings for users of the user terminals. The workflow creation server creates a workflow plan in response to an operation of a workflow creator at a creator terminal. The workflow plan includes a step or process involving accessing a cloud service using a first cloud service account. The user setting terminal registers a second cloud service account for accessing the cloud service in response to an instruction from a user at a user terminal. The second cloud service account is associated with the user. When the workflow plan is executed by the user via the network, the second cloud service account is used for accessing the cloud service instead of the first cloud service account.
