According to one embodiment, a healthcare support system includes a memory and a hardware processor connected to the memory. The hardware processor predicts a risk value of a disease based on medical checkup data for a medical examinee. The hardware processor sets a reduction target for the risk value of the disease, and sets a plurality of second factors constituting search targets among a plurality of first factors relating to the disease and a search range for each of the second factors. The hardware processor searches, by using a predetermined search method, in the search range for each of the second factors, for a target value candidate of each of the second factors so that the risk value of the disease is brought close to the reduction target.

A text generating device includes an acquirer that acquires the utterance of the user relative to content provided in real time, a retriever that retrieves from a microblog server data relating to the content, a sentence generator that generates a sentence relating to the content and the acquired utterance of the user, based on the data retrieved by the retriever, and an voice outputter and/or a display for using the generated sentence to reply to the user.

Dialog agent, reply sentence generation method, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium

An audio recording apparatus comprises: a recording process for recording audio; a receiving process for receiving an indicated go-back time; and a processor that executes an information appending process that appends information associated with a time going back by the go-back time from a base time, linked to audio in the recording, in accordance with a user's instructions.

Appending information to an audio recording

A voice retrieval apparatus includes a display, a memory, and a processor executing a voice recording process of storing recorded voices in the memory, an accepting process of accepting a retrieval term, a retrieval process of retrieving, from the recorded voices, a candidate segment where an utterance of the accepted retrieval term is estimated, a replay process of replaying voices in the candidate segment retrieved in the retrieval process, and a display control process of adding a marking to display information indicating a transition of the recorded voices in time based on the replay result of the voices in the candidate segment in the replay process, and displaying the display information with the marking on the display, the marking specifying an utterance location of the voices in the candidate segment.

A music score display device displays a music score representing a predetermined piece of music at a display, and stores a playing result for each measure of the music score in a memory when the piece is played. On the basis of the playing results of the measures stored in the memory, the music score display device generates graph images representing the playing results of the measures, and displays the generated graph images of the measures, superposed on images of the corresponding measures of the music score displayed at the display, such that the images of the measures are visible.

An apparatus is provided, for calculating a practice time. The apparatus is used by a user to calculate such practice time that he/she requires to improve his/her playing technique to reach a predetermined progressing level at the playing technique. In the apparatus, a progressing-level evaluating unit evaluates a progressing level of a playing technique of the user who operates a playable unit. A history of the evaluated progressing level is recorded in a progressing-level recording unit. An operation-number counting unit counts the number of operations executed on the playable unit by the user every unit time. A history of the counted number of operations is recorded in an operation-number recording unit. A practice-time calculating unit calculates the practice time based on the history of the progressing level recorded in the progressing-level recording unit and the history of the number of operations recorded in the operation-number recording unit.

A chord-information storage stores chord-type information and information on relationship between constituent notes including a tonic of the chord as chord information. Upon specification of a tonic, a first instruction display reads out chord information, and then causes a display to show relationship information for a constituent note other than the tonic, chord-type information, and an indicator indicating positional relationship between the tonic and each constituent note on music-playing operators. Every time another note is specified after the tonic, a second instruction display extracts chord information including relationship information that matches with relationship between the specified tonic and all notes specified after the tonic, and causes the display to show relationship information of a constituent note other than the specified notes, chord-type information, and an indicator indicating positional relationship between the tonic and each constituent note on music-playing operators.
