Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes plural detectors each of which detects a physical amount of a subject; a setting unit that sets, for each of the detectors, a detection period of the physical amount used for estimation; and an estimation unit that estimates feelings of the subject in accordance with the physical amount detected by each of the plural detectors in the detection period set by the setting unit. The setting unit sets a detection period used for next estimation on the basis of an estimation result obtained by the estimation unit.

Claims (34)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a plurality of detectors each of which detects a physical amount of a subject;

a setting unit that sets, for each of the detectors, a detection period of the physical amount used for estimation; and

an estimation unit that estimates feelings of the subject in accordance with the physical amount detected by each of the plurality of detectors in the detection period set by the setting unit,

wherein the setting unit sets a detection period used for next estimation on a basis of an estimation result obtained by the estimation unit.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the detectors are a plurality of kinds of detectors; and

the setting unit sets, for each of the plurality of kinds of detectors, the detection period.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the setting unit sets, for each of the plurality of kinds of detectors, the detection period after setting a longest detection period for all of the detectors.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the setting unit uses a filter that decides the detection period; and

the filter decides the detection period by using a threshold value.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

a shape of the filter is dynamically generated on a basis of a past physical amount.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

a cumulative Gaussian distribution is used as the filter; and

the setting unit generates the filter that is the cumulative Gaussian distribution by deciding an average and a distribution of a Gaussian distribution by using the estimation result and a physical amount used for estimation and sets a detection period that is equal to or larger than the threshold value.

7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the setting unit sets the detection period in accordance with the estimation result and a situation of the subject.

8 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , further comprising a finding unit that finds a situation of the subject in accordance with a position or schedule of the subject,

wherein the estimation unit estimates feelings of the subject by using the situation of the subject found by the finding unit.

9 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the estimation unit estimates feelings of the subject by using a model generated by machine learning.

10 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing an information processing program causing a computer to function as:

a plurality of detectors each of which detects a physical amount of a subject;

a setting unit that sets, for each of the detectors, a detection period of the physical amount used for estimation; and

an estimation unit that estimates feelings of the subject in accordance with the physical amount detected by each of the plurality of detectors in the detection period set by the setting unit,

wherein the setting unit sets a detection period used for next estimation on a basis of an estimation result obtained by the estimation unit.

11 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a plurality of detection means each for detecting a physical amount of a subject;

setting means for setting, for each of the detectors, a detection period of the physical amount used for estimation; and

estimation means for estimating feelings of the subject in accordance with the physical amount detected by each of the plurality of detectors in the detection period set by the setting means,

wherein the setting means sets a detection period used for next estimation on a basis of an estimation result obtained by the estimation means.
