Patent number: 10786173Abstract: Provided are a method, a device, a system, and a program for evaluating similarity of brain activity with respect to an object to be evaluated, using data obtained by a simple measurement of brain waves. Brain wave data related to cognitive processing with respect to a plurality of sensory stimuli are dimensionally compressed, and a distribution of the object to be evaluated is displayed on a two-dimensional plane or three-dimensionally. In this way, similarity of brain information with respect to the plurality of sensory stimuli is evaluated, and the similarity is visualized. The brain wave data related to the cognitive processing include brain wave data upon selection of a stimulus as a target, and brain wave data caused by a non-target stimulus event.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2015Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYInventors: Ryohei Hasegawa, Tomomi Fujimura

Publication number: 20200037911Abstract: An intention decoding apparatus and a decoding method that quickly and precisely analyze brain waves for decoding an intention decision without requiring an advance brain wave measurement for, for example, a calibration step, and an intention conveyance assist apparatus, an intention conveyance assist system, and a program using a decoding result of the intention decision in the brain. The intention decoding apparatus that analyzes brain waves to decode an intention performs a process to examine a dispersion by classifying brain wave data of event-related potentials corresponding to a plurality of stimulus events into any one stimulus event and the other stimulus events among the plurality of stimulus events, on all the stimulus events, and identifies a classification where the dispersion becomes maximum to identify the one stimulus event in the classification as the intention. The intention conveyance assist apparatus includes a presentation unit that presents a decoding result.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2017Publication date: February 6, 2020Applicant: NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYInventor: Ryohei Hasegawa
