Description

My Plan (5) is a personal AC that is necessary for aging control (hereinafter referred to as AC) for the purpose of maintaining health and anti-aging, such as information on biological information, living behaviors / acts, or information on practice exercise and collected nutrition. It is a database that describes information (1) and the like in the form of electronic data based on certain grammatical rules. It is an invention in the field of security technology relating to the handling of this database.

That is, there is a demand for the protection of personal information in a database and the possibility of using such data as effective data under a certain protection. The database of AC-related individuals dealt with here is related to the basics of the human nature of the person as personal information and is well protected, and at the same time important to be used for the life span and aging of humankind It is also a good thing. In general, it is difficult to achieve both of them, and the database is often handled by both sides.

In today's aging society, there is a strong demand from individuals who want to know important information about anti-aging for individuals, and this is often taken on the assumption. In addition, when used for academic purposes, it is strictly managed by the Ethics Committee. Therefore, the request for more detailed information based on the scientific basis of the AC information will require a lot of manpower, and will require sufficient agreement as well as academic pursuit. In other words, when providing AC information more appropriately and in detail to individuals who are subject to AC-related services, analysis by professional staff and specialists on AC raw information and information of a state close to that level Judgment and evaluation are required. In this case, who can approach this information and how much of this information is a human decision, even if there are similar rules related to it, and there is no measure that is definitely done in the database system.

In addition, there are no multiple categories based on multifaceted criteria. A fundamental solution to this conflict of information protection is required.

Information necessary for aging control aiming at health maintenance and anti-aging needs not only biological information but also information related to personal private life patterns related to living behaviors and actions. Furthermore, it is required to collect such information continuously or periodically.
Disclosure and handling of personal information closely related to such life needs to be sufficiently protected.
It is difficult to realize a problem-free operation from the viewpoint of personal information protection without the raw information being exposed to human eyes by the analysis processing of these information. Here, in My Plan, which is a database on AC, there is a function to firmly convey the information of AC evaluation to individuals and to eliminate the conflict of information protection regarding utilization of AC information necessary for health and anti-aging. It is a problem.

Until now, the protection level of the collected raw AC information itself is determined, and the system determines how to limit the disclosure. In such a system, if data collected with a planability is individually examined and partially unusable, it becomes a missing state as comprehensive information. It is a problem to avoid this state.

The collected person wants to know AC raw information (1) as much as possible, and at the same time, wants to know the basic evaluation of the value immediately, but at the same time, to other people who know the details of their details. There is a sense of resistance. The problem is how to remove this.

In other words, the original protection of personal AC information has a barrier to whether or not the collected AC raw information (1) itself can be used, thereby identifying the raw information and accompanying personal attribute information (for example, specifying an individual). (Such as age, gender, place of residence, height, name, affiliation, etc.) Is done. The flexible use of information, that is, personal life pattern information, etc. is considerably limited. Nonetheless, in the utilization of these, at the stage of data processing in the middle, manual processing is almost done by some means, and related people are obliged to conceal, but the personal information itself is Private is infringed by as much.

When personal information that is not directly related to AC evaluation must be recorded at the same time among the collected life pattern information, only necessary information is used as a database, and other information is separated and protected. Another problem is that it is required to be deleted.

As a precondition for these issues described above, the collection of these information should be done automatically, in a system with certain information protection established, such as an individual's own operation or a hospital examination. In addition, in order to solve the problem, in principle, it is assumed that a system that automatically performs subsequent information processing without human intervention as much as possible is assumed.

Here, vital data related to AC and raw AC information related to life patterns (1) are used as personal attribute information related to identity recognition (for example, age, gender, residence, height, name, affiliation, etc. that identify an individual). It is processed by an individual specific scale (10) regarding how much is attached, and an inference filter (numerization, graphing, conversion to individual judgment scale / parameters, etc.) that automatically analyzes and judges without human intervention Thus, the abstraction process (FIGS. 3 and 7) is performed so that the content approaches the required AC evaluation item, the abstraction scale (11) regarding the degree of abstraction, and personal information to others. It is necessary to eliminate unnecessary information collected about privacy measures (12) related to privacy protection (Figures 4 and 9) that we do not want to know, and AC raw information collected. Functions that extract only AC information, or representation of information related to images, sounds, and actions that are necessary for AC information, are indirectly expressed (numerization, image patterning, timbre change, sound / voice waveform, Extraction function scale that removes information unrelated to AC information and records it at the time of information collection (Figures 4 and 8) by the function (Figures 4 and 8) that transforms it into something that cannot be sensed by presenting (such as conversion to coloring such as movement) 13) These measures are attached to AC raw information or processed AC information to classify them in a hierarchical manner.

In addition, the abstraction scale (11) and the extraction function scale (13) by the inference filter are installed on the measuring device side of the target information, or installed in the information relay unit (3) such as the AC information center, or Information may be processed by installing the plan (5) on the database server computer (2). Eventually, information is accumulated in a layered form with these measures.

The handling scale (16) that determines the purpose of using the AC information classified by these scales or the grade of the person who is permitted to handle the information is set. By setting a rule for setting a case where AC information can be handled from a combination of a plurality of scales described above, and a system having a handling authorization rule (15) in which AC information cannot be handled unless the system recognizes, a state close to AC raw information is Protecting personal information at a higher level and, as the information abstraction progresses, we propose measures to ease restrictions on the use (disclosure, handling, etc.) of information, and to solve the conflicts that become issues. (For example, FIG. 3)

In order to protect personal information, the above personal identification scale (10), abstraction scale by inference filter (11), privacy scale (12), extraction function scale (13) that converts or cuts only necessary AC information, and handling Combining the qualifications of people who actually handle AC information according to the scale in charge (15), set handling authorization rules (15), and flexibly operate personal information protection for efficient use of AC information . In addition, according to each individual's way of thinking, it is possible to adapt the handling authorization rules. (Fig. 5)

As mentioned above, the collection of AC information should be done automatically, in a system where certain information protection is established, such as personal operations or hospital examinations. In addition, in order to solve the problem, in principle, it is assumed that a system that automatically performs subsequent information processing without human intervention as much as possible is assumed.

In the present invention, as in the case of My Plan, in the approach to data referring to notification to a normal individual, presentation of data to a medical institution in an emergency, advice to the person's concern, the name of the target individual Therefore, it is necessary to specify a certain degree of an individual by a kana, a contact code, or the like. Therefore, it is necessary to make a decision to permit the handling of AC information depending on the position of the person who handles it (individuals, close relatives, friends, supporters, AC-related organization staff, responsible persons, doctors, academics, ordinary people, etc.). Therefore, instead of AC raw information, an abstraction scale (11), an individual identification scale (10), a privacy scale (12) based on the above-described inference filter of information (FIG. 2), and an extraction function scale including only necessary AC information Multi-purpose for support by setting a level that conforms to the handling scale (16) for AC information that has been treated, classifying AC information in a layered manner, and identifying a person who can handle AC information It can be expected to have the effect of being multifunctional and capable of being handled immediately. Therefore, it can be expected that the utilization of AC information can be combined with the protection of personal information. (Fig. 6)

Moreover, it becomes easy for the target individual to agree to the collection of AC raw information of personal life by adapting the personal information protection system to a method that the individual is satisfied. Furthermore, it is possible to contract at various levels as desired by the individual for the consent of such AC information to be provided to doctors and researchers by taking measures to protect personal information to appropriate information.

As shown in Fig. 1, My Plan is necessary for aging control (hereinafter referred to as AC) aiming at health maintenance and anti-aging such as biological information, information on living behaviors / acts or information on practice exercises and collected nutrition. Personal information such as personal information is automatically collected as much as possible, and the measurement results are automatically and quickly stored in a server computer using a wired or wireless communication function. Recorded in data format. These AC information measuring devices should be described in the My Plan without human intervention as much as possible, so that more detailed AC information on the life and physical condition of the target person can be safely satisfied from the viewpoint of personal information protection. Can be built.

Furthermore, the AC information is appropriately hierarchized according to the above-described abstraction scale (11), personal identification scale (10), privacy scale (12), extraction function scale (13), and the like. In addition, the handling authorization rule (15) can be appropriately and easily constructed in light of the handling rule (16). It is possible to respond flexibly to different ways of protecting personal information by individuals. Furthermore, it is possible to automatically transmit the evaluation result of AC information to the subject person himself / herself promptly.

For the purpose of aging control aiming at health maintenance and anti-aging, members are recruited, and ubiquitous (anytime, anywhere, anybody, anyone) type measuring device, members' biometric information, information on living activities / acts or exercises practiced In addition, the information on the collected nutrients and the like are measured, certain data processing is performed, and AC information is transferred to the mobile phone by the wireless communication system provided in the measuring apparatus. Further, the AC information stored in the mobile phone is transmitted to a server computer that performs recording and processing of My Plan through a telephone line as appropriate. (Figure 2)

The AC information sent to the My Plan is appropriately hierarchized according to the above-described abstraction scale (11), personal identification scale (10), privacy scale (12), extraction function scale (13), and the like. These evaluation information is communicated to the person in the automated answering system (4) in order to evoke the recognition of the individual person, and is an aging control support system using this My Plan (5). According to the personal identification scale, the privacy scale, the extraction function scale, etc., it is possible to utilize it by appropriately adapting the handling authorization rule (15) to the supporter in light of the handling scale. Personal information protection contracts can be adapted to individual needs and can be handled flexibly.

By using the My Plan that constitutes such a support system, the member can easily perform AC by constantly acquiring and recognizing AC information of his / her body and life pattern with peace of mind.

At present, the aging society is progressing, the elderly are highly aware of health and anti-aging, and there is a strong tendency to adopt it even at high costs. However, there are many push-type anti-aging products and systems that guarantee only the effects of extreme myopia, and there are many advertisements for utility for everyone. In the My Plan according to the present invention, real-time AC evaluation based on comprehensive AC information is always possible, and the effect is easy to understand.

Generally, in the same support system, there are many problems in handling personal information, and the use of the information must be cautious only because there are many items that are deeply related to personal privacy. Since this My Plan is centered on the automatic handling of electronic information, it does not require manpower, labor costs, and is advantageous in terms of profitability as a business.
