摘要： To support an infant's ability to understand and present moods. A mood information presentation tool (10) is a three-dimensional object that is an approximately regular hexahedron. Six faces of a surface of the three-dimensional object include at least a mood selection surface (100) and four mood degree selection surfaces (110, 120, 130, and 140). The mood selection surface (100) includes four mood regions. Each of the mood regions is made up of a mood face region displaying a picture simulating a face of different mood and a mood background region to which is given a predetermined basic color as a color corresponding to the mood. Each of the mood degree selection surfaces (110, 120, 130, and 140) is a surface which is in contact with one mood region of the mood selection surface (100), which is given the basic color given to the mood background region of the mood region, and which includes a set of a plurality of signs representing degrees of mutually different magnitudes.

摘要： A vocabulary size estimation apparatus includes a question generation unit configured to select a plurality of test words from a plurality of words, a presentation unit configured to present the test words to users, an answer reception unit configured to receive answers regarding knowledge of the test words of the users, and a vocabulary size estimation unit configured to obtain a model representing a relationship between values based on probabilities that the users answer that the users know the words and values based on vocabulary sizes of the users when the users answer that the users know the words, by using the test words, estimated vocabulary sizes of people who know the test words, and the answers regarding the knowledge of the test words. The question generation unit selects, among the plurality of words, words whose degrees of adequacy of notations meet a predetermined criterion as the test words.

摘要： Provided is a technique for effectively searching for a book for an articulation disordered-child to use in practice. A search condition setting unit 120 sets a search condition for a speech sound in accordance with a selection state of kana symbol buttons disposed in a book search screen, the kana symbol buttons corresponding one-to-one to kana symbols indicating respective speech sounds. A search unit 130 searches for a book in which a desired speech sound appears, in accordance with the search condition. A book search screen includes at least one of a Japanese syllabary button group in which the kana symbol buttons are classified as vowels or consonants, and an articulation button group in which the kana symbol buttons are classified by articulatory organ and articulation manner.

摘要： Provided is an invention for efficiently searching for books used in training to reduce metathesis. A book search database storage unit 110 stores a book search database in which information identifying a book, information regarding a frequency of a proximity number for a mora character notation pair appearing in forward order in the book, and information regarding a frequency of a proximity number for the mora character notation pair appearing in reverse order are associated with each other. A display unit 300 displays a book search screen including a correctly pronounced phrase input region and an incorrectly pronounced phrase input region. A subject pronunciation designation unit 120 determines two mora character notations and a proximity number to use as search conditions based on an input of the correctly pronounced phrase input region and an input of the incorrectly pronounced phrase input region. A subject book information generation unit 130 generates search results including information regarding books matching the search conditions from the book search database.

摘要： An index value assignment device comprises: a selection unit that prompts a user to select, from a sentence, one or more words that the user feels to have a same degree of a predetermined index value with respect to one or more first words for which the index value is known; a validation unit that validates the selection result by the user on a basis of the index value of a second word for which the index value is known from among the one or more words included in the selection result; and a determination unit that determines the index value with respect to a third word for which the index value is unknown from among the one or more words selected by the user, on a basis of the index value of the first word according to the selection result for which the selection result is determined to be valid. Consequently, the efficiency of assigning word familiarity is increased.
