It is an object to provide a device for estimating a plurality of mental/nervous system diseases by the voice analysis, the device being capable of estimating either major depression or bipolar disorder. Furthermore, there are provided an estimation device including an extraction means for extracting an acoustic feature amount that is not affected by a location where voices are acquired, and a method for operating the estimation device.

Device for estimating mental/nervous system diseases using voice

An object of the present invention is to provide an information processing apparatus capable of more easily evaluating a depression state. The present invention is an information processing apparatus including: means for inputting voice data uttered by a subject; means for acquiring time-series data of sound pressure in the input voice data; and means for obtaining a Sound Pressure Change acceleration index that is an index based on a force toward a center and a force away from the center of the acquired time-series data of the sound pressure.

Information processing apparatus, method, and program

A medical apparatus for estimating a mental/neurological disease with high precision is provided. This medical apparatus includes a computational processing device, a recording device having an estimation program which causes the computational processing device to execute processing recorded therein, a calculation unit configured to calculate a score of a subject, a detection unit configured to detect a disease whose score exceeds a reference range, and an estimation unit configured to estimate a mental/neurological disease.
