Outline of Final Research Achievements

A generally healthy normal state is, in terms of behavioural physiology, a state in which the various types of biosignal are balanced. Therefore, it is essential to analyse qualitatively different time series data of information in an integrated manner. In this study, an information processing method was developed that, in principle, can input multiple qualitatively different types of biosignal and obtain multiple types of information as output. Its use in biosignal processing was also verified.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

開発した情報処理の実証においては、例として、活動量から心拍数が推定することができる可能性が示唆された。これらの成果は、今後の質的に異なる時系列の生体情報を統合的に解析する手法の構築に活かされていく。さらには、生体計測データを用いたリアルタイムの自動健康診断などでの健康促進や予防検診等において、普段の状態に体調を維持するための健康支援技術に繋がっていく。
