Publication number: 20260188511Abstract: In order to feed back the risk of degradation of a quality of sleep to a subject, in a risk prediction device, a processor acquires a life log from the subject terminal, the life log including quality-of-sleep information and lifestyle information. The processor creates a life map representing a tendency of a lifestyle in a coordinate space having lifestyle-related parameters, and estimates a latest state by calculating the lifestyle-related parameters and mapping the latest state in the life map. The processor predicts a risk of degradation of quality, based on a positional relationship between a position of the latest state and a region in the life map, and provides feedback if the risk is equal to or more than a threshold. the subject terminal displays an alert and a recommended action to reduce the risk. Accordingly, it is possible to supports users in making decisions concerning their sleep.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2025Publication date: July 2, 2026Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Mana HASHIMOTO, Yuki KOSAKA, Kosuke NISHIHARA

Publication number: 20260128179Abstract: A long-term state transition is estimated in consideration of variations among individuals. A state transition estimation device acquires a first feature vector of a first individual in a first age range, a second feature vector of a second individual in a second age range, and individual data of the first individual, generates a latent vector representing variation between the first individuals from the individual data, performs mapping to an estimated feature vector in a case where the first individual falls within a second age range by using the latent vector, updates a mapping parameter so that the mapping approaches optimal transport from a probability distribution of the first feature vector to a probability distribution of the second feature vector, and estimates a probability distribution of the estimated feature vector in a case where the individual in the first age range falls within the second age range.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2025Publication date: May 7, 2026Applicant: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Kosuke NISHIHARA, Fumiyuki Nihey, Keisuke Suzuki, Mana Hashimoto, Yuki Kosaka, Kentaro Nakahara

Publication number: 20260057266Abstract: A data estimation device includes an acquisition unit, a stratification unit, an estimation unit, and an output unit. The acquisition unit acquires data sets including pieces of data indicating mutually different probability distributions and an attribute used for stratification of the data sets. The stratification unit stratifies the data sets based on the attribute. The estimation unit estimates a state transition probability between the data sets after the stratification based on a difference in distribution between a state transition probability between the data sets before the stratification and a state transition probability between the data sets stratified for each of the attributes. The output unit outputs the state transition probability between the data sets after the stratification. The use of the state transition probability estimated in this manner enables the data estimation device to support decision making based on an estimation result of a transition destination of data.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2025Publication date: February 26, 2026Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Keisuke SUZUKI, Yuki KOSAKA, Kosuke NISHIHARA, Kentaro NAKAHARA, Fumiyuki NIHEY, Mana HASHIMOTO
