Abstract: A time feature value calculation apparatus according to an embodiment includes an interpolation unit (182) and a time feature value calculation unit (183). In accordance with a variability tendency of a biological signal exhibited in time-series data of the biological signal resulting from an abnormality value process performed to eliminate an abnormality value from the biological signal in response to an input of the biological signal having periodicity, the interpolation unit interpolates a missing value in the biological signal in the time-series data of the biological signal resulting from the abnormality value process. The time feature value calculation unit calculates a time feature value focusing on the variability tendency of the biological signal measured over an arbitrary time period, from the interpolated time-series data of the biological signal.

When a selection range is designated on an edit screen, a node selection unit of a tree structure data editing device selects one or more node IDs in the tree structure data, based on the position of the selection range. When a paste target for the selection range is designated on the edit screen, a connection target determination unit determines a connection target node ID in the tree structure data, based on the position of the paste target. A tree structure data editing unit edits the tree structure data such that the node or nodes identified by the one or more node IDs is/are connected to the node identified by the connection target node ID. A conversion unit convers the tree structure data edited by the tree structure data editing unit into text data. A display control unit updates the edit screen displayed, based on the text data converted by the conversion unit.
