MAGNETIC DATA PROCESSING DEVICE, MAGNETIC DATA PROCESSING METHOD, AND MAGNETIC DATA PROCESSING PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A magnetic data processing device comprising:
- an input part that sequentially receives magnetic data output from a magnetic sensor;
a storage part that stores a plurality of the magnetic data as a data set of statistical population;
an index derivation part that derives a distribution index of the data set of the statistical population;
a reliability determination part that determines whether or not reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable based on the distribution index and a decision criterion; and
a decision criterion setting part that increases strictness of the decision criterion when the reliability determination part determines that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable and decreases the strictness of the decision criterion when the reliability determination part determines that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is unacceptable.

Abstract
In a magnetic data processing device, an input part sequentially receives magnetic data output from a magnetic sensor. A storage part stores a plurality of the magnetic data as a data set of statistical population. An index derivation part derives a distribution index of the data set of the statistical population. A reliability determination part determines whether or not reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable based on the distribution index and a decision criterion. A decision criterion setting part increases strictness of the decision criterion when the reliability determination part determines that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable, and decreases the strictness of the decision criterion when the reliability determination part determines that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is unacceptable.

11. A navigation apparatus comprising:
-
a magnetic sensor that outputs magnetic data; an input part that sequentially receives the magnetic data output from the magnetic sensor; a storage part that stores a plurality of the magnetic data as a data set of statistical population; an index derivation part that derives a distribution index of the data set of the statistical population; a reliability determination part that determines whether or not reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable based on the distribution index and a decision criterion; a decision criterion setting part that increases strictness of the decision criterion when the reliability determination part determines that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable and decreases the strictness of the decision criterion when the reliability determination part determines that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is unacceptable; an offset derivation part that derives an offset of the magnetic data based on the data set of the statistical population whose reliability has been determined to be acceptable; a correction part that corrects the magnetic data based on the offset; and an orientation notification part that provides notification of an orientation based on the corrected magnetic data.

12. A magnetic data processing method comprising:
-
sequentially receiving magnetic data output from a magnetic sensor; storing a plurality of the magnetic data as a data set of statistical population; deriving a distribution index of the data set of the statistical population; determining whether or not reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable based on the distribution index and a decision criterion; and increasing strictness of the decision criterion when it is determined that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is acceptable and decreasing the strictness of the decision criterion when it is determined that the reliability of the data set of the statistical population is unacceptable.
