determining a state of the at least one user based on biological information including at least brain waves of the at least one user, and historical information including at least one time series of context information indicating contexts under which measurements of the biological information at respective points in time are made; and

outputting the state of the at least one user to the at least one user.

2. The information processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the historical information is classified according to a plurality of time series, and at least one determined state of the at least one user is output based on analyzing the biological information and the historical information for each of the time series.

3. The information processing method according to claim 2 , wherein each time series is assigned a weight depending on a context that the user is in and the at least one determined state of the at least one user is output in an order of priority determined by the weights or a subset of the at least one determined state of the at least one user is output to the user depending on the weights.

4. The information processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the state of the at least one user is determined based on a combination of the biological information and the historical information collected at a plurality of time series.

5. The information processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the state of the at least one user is output to at least one other user.

6. The information processing method according to claim 5 , further comprising determining a suggested intervention based on the state or the historical information of the at least one user or at least one other user, and outputting the suggested intervention to the at least one user or the at least one other user, and wherein

at least one intervention device for outputting the suggested intervention is selected from an environment that the at least one user is in.

7. The information processing method according to claim 1 , further comprising determining a suggested intervention based on the state or the historical information of the at least one user, and outputting the suggested intervention to the at least one user.

8. The information processing method according to claim 1 , further comprising determining the state of the at least one user based on a frequency spectrum of a bioelectrical potential measured from the at least one user.

9. The information processing method according to claim 7 , wherein:

the processor is included in an audible device comprising a biological information measuring device, a sound input-output device, and a memory; and

the method further comprising:

by a processor, outputting the suggested intervention to the at least one user via the sound input-output device, acquiring a response of the at least one user to the suggested intervention, and storing the response in the memory.

10. The information processing method according to claim 9 , further comprising, before performing the suggested intervention, selecting a first mode in which the response is acquired from the at least one user, or a second mode in which the suggested intervention is automatically performed by artificial intelligence.

11. The information processing method according to claim 7 , further comprising performing intervention in a form of communicating via at least one of light, image, video, sound, voice, music, vibration, temperature change, collision, stimulation, or smell.

12. An information processing method comprising:

by a processor,

acquiring biological information of at least one user;

determining a state of the at least one user based on the biological information of the at least one user; and

assisting communication of information of the at least one user based on the state of the at least one user;

wherein, at least one user comprises a plurality of users, and, in a case of assisting communication of information from one user to another user, the processor obtains confirmation from the one user to transmit the information to the other user;

wherein in a case in which the one user rejects the information to be transmitted to the other user, storing the information in a memory associated with the one user.

13. The information processing apparatus according to claim 12 , further comprising, in a case in which the one user rejects the information to be transmitted to the other user, suggesting a selection from at least one alternate action to the one user.

14. An information processing method comprising:

by a processor,

acquiring biological information of at least one user;

determining a state of the at least one user based on the biological information of the at least one user; and

assisting communication of information of the at least one user based on the state of the at least one user;

wherein, at least one user comprises a plurality of users, and, in a case of assisting communication of information from one user to another user, the processor obtains confirmation from the one user to transmit the information to the other user;

wherein the information processing method further comprises, in a case in which the one user confirms transmission of the information to the other user, storing, as learned data, the information in association with a determined state of the one user in a memory, and using the learned data in subsequent determination of the information based on the determined state of the one user.

15. The information processing method according to claim 14 , further comprising, in a case in which the one user confirms transmission of the information to the other user, storing in a memory data indicating whether or not the transmission to the other user was successful.

16. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to:

acquire biological information of at least one user;

determine a state of at least one user based on biological information including at least brain waves of the at least one user, and historical information including at least one time series of context information indicating contexts under which measurements of the biological information at respective points in time are made; and

output the state of the at least one user to the at least one user.
