＜発想支援装置の構成＞
　図１乃至図４Ｃを参照して、本実施形態に係る発想支援装置１００の構成の一例について説明する。 <Configuration of idea support device>
An example of the configuration of the idea support device 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4C.
　図１に示すように、発想支援装置１００は、入力部１０と、記憶部２０と、制御部３０と、出力部４０と、を備える。 As shown in FIG. 1, the idea support device 100 includes an input unit 10, a storage unit 20, a control unit 30, and an output unit 40.
　入力部１０は、各種情報の入力を受け付ける。入力部１０は、ユーザ（発想支援を受ける者）Ｕによる所定の操作が可能であればどのようなデバイスでもよく、例えば、マイク、タッチパネル、キーボード、マウスなどである。例えば、ユーザＵが、入力部１０を用いて所定の操作を行うことで、言語情報が制御部３０に入力される。言語情報とは、ユーザＵの発想を刺激する情報の１つであり、例えば、テニス、野球、バレーボール、卓球などのスポーツの競技名を示す情報である。入力部１０は、発想支援装置１００と一体化されていてもよいし、別々に設けられていてもよい。ユーザＵにより入力された言語情報は、記憶部２０に記憶される。 The input unit 10 accepts input of various information. The input unit 10 may be any device as long as it can be operated by the user (person who receives the idea support) U, and may be, for example, a microphone, a touch panel, a keyboard, a mouse, or the like. For example, the user U performs a predetermined operation using the input unit 10, so that the language information is input to the control unit 30. The linguistic information is one of the information that stimulates the idea of the user U, and is information indicating, for example, the competition name of a sport such as tennis, baseball, volleyball, or table tennis. The input unit 10 may be integrated with the idea support device 100, or may be provided separately. The language information input by the user U is stored in the storage unit 20.
　例えば、ユーザＵが、マイクを用いて、「テニス」と発話することで、ユーザＵが発話した「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報が制御部３０に発話入力される。例えば、ユーザＵが、タッチパネルを用いて、「テニス」とタップすることで、ユーザＵがタップした「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報が制御部３０にテキスト入力される。 For example, when the user U speaks "tennis" using a microphone, information indicating the sport name of the sport "tennis" spoken by the user U is utterly input to the control unit 30. For example, when the user U taps "tennis" using the touch panel, information indicating the sport name of the sport "tennis" tapped by the user U is text-input to the control unit 30.
　記憶部２０は、１つ以上のメモリを含み、例えば、半導体メモリ、磁気メモリ、光メモリなどを含んでよい。記憶部２０に含まれる各メモリは、例えば、主記憶装置、補助記憶装置、又はキャッシュメモリとして機能してよい。各メモリは、必ずしも発想支援装置１００がその内部に備える必要はなく、発想支援装置１００の外部に備える構成としてもよい。 The storage unit 20 includes one or more memories, and may include, for example, a semiconductor memory, a magnetic memory, an optical memory, and the like. Each memory included in the storage unit 20 may function as, for example, a main storage device, an auxiliary storage device, or a cache memory. Each memory does not necessarily have to be provided inside the idea support device 100, and may be provided outside the idea support device 100.
　記憶部２０は、発想支援装置１００の動作に用いられる各種情報を記憶する。記憶部２０は、例えば、言語情報、言語情報に対応する特徴情報（図２参照）、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報（図３参照）などを記憶する。この他にも、記憶部２０は、例えば、各種のプログラム、各種のデータなどを記憶する。なお、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報は、あらかじめ記憶部２０に記憶されている。 The storage unit 20 stores various information used for the operation of the idea support device 100. The storage unit 20 stores, for example, language information, feature information corresponding to the language information (see FIG. 2), image information imaged from the language information (see FIG. 3), and the like. In addition to this, the storage unit 20 stores, for example, various programs, various data, and the like. The feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information are stored in the storage unit 20 in advance.
　言語情報に対応する特徴情報とは、ユーザＵの発想を刺激する情報に対応する特徴を示す情報であり、例えば、個人競技であるか又は団体競技であるかなど、所定の競技名のスポーツに対応する競技人数を示す情報、屋外で行われるか又は屋内で行われるかなど、所定の競技名のスポーツに対応する開催場所を示す情報である。 The feature information corresponding to the linguistic information is information indicating the feature corresponding to the information that stimulates the idea of the user U, and is, for example, a sport having a predetermined sport name such as whether it is an individual sport or a team sport. Information indicating the number of corresponding athletes, information indicating the venue corresponding to the sport of a predetermined competition name, such as whether it is performed outdoors or indoors.
　図２は、言語情報に対応する特徴情報の一例を示す図である。 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of feature information corresponding to linguistic information.
　例えば、言語情報が、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報に対応する特徴情報は、「個人競技」であるという競技人数を示す情報、「屋外」で行われるという開催場所を示す情報である。例えば、言語情報が、「野球」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報に対応する特徴情報は、「団体競技」であるという競技人数を示す情報、「屋外」で行われるという開催場所を示す情報である。例えば、言語情報が、「バレーボール」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報に対応する特徴情報は、「団体競技」であるという競技人数を示す情報、「屋内」で行われるという開催場所を示す情報である。例えば、言語情報が、「卓球」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報に対応する特徴情報は、「個人競技」であるという競技人数を示す情報、「屋内」で行われるという開催場所を示す情報である。 For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the competition name of the sport "tennis", the feature information corresponding to the linguistic information is information indicating the number of athletes who are "individual competition", and is said to be performed "outdoors". Information indicating the venue. For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the competition name of the sport "baseball", the feature information corresponding to the linguistic information is information indicating the number of athletes who are "group competition", and is said to be performed "outdoors". Information indicating the venue. For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the competition name of the sport "volleyball", the feature information corresponding to the linguistic information is said to be performed "indoors", which is information indicating the number of athletes who are "group competitions". Information indicating the venue. For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the competition name of the sport "table tennis", the feature information corresponding to the linguistic information is said to be performed "indoors", which is information indicating the number of athletes who are "individual sports". Information indicating the venue.
　また、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報とは、ユーザＵの発想を刺激する情報からイメージされる画像の情報であり、例えば、テニス、野球、バレーボール、卓球などのスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストの情報である。 Further, the image information imaged from the linguistic information is image information imaged from information that stimulates the idea of the user U, and is imaged from, for example, the sports name of sports such as tennis, baseball, volleyball, and table tennis. It is the information of the illustration.
　図３は、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報の一例を示す図である。 FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of image information imaged from linguistic information.
　例えば、言語情報が、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報は、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストの情報である。例えば、言語情報が、「野球」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報は、「野球」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストの情報である。例えば、言語情報が、「バレーボール」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報は、「バレーボール」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストの情報である。例えば、言語情報が、「卓球」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報である場合、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報は、「卓球」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストの情報である。 For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the sport name of the sport "tennis", the image information imaged from the linguistic information is the information of the illustration imaged from the sport name of the sport "tennis". For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the sport name of the sport "baseball", the image information imaged from the linguistic information is the information of the illustration imaged from the sport name of the sport "baseball". For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the sport name of the sport "volleyball", the image information imaged from the linguistic information is the information of the illustration imaged from the sport name of the sport "volleyball". For example, when the linguistic information is information indicating the sport name of the sport "table tennis", the image information imaged from the linguistic information is the information of the illustration imaged from the sport name of the sport "table tennis".
　制御部３０は、専用のハードウェアによって構成されてもよいし、汎用のプロセッサ又は特定の処理に特化したプロセッサによって構成されてもよい。制御部３０は、抽出部３１と、作図部３２と、判定部３３と、を備える。 The control unit 30 may be configured by dedicated hardware, a general-purpose processor, or a processor specialized for a specific process. The control unit 30 includes an extraction unit 31, a drawing unit 32, and a determination unit 33.
　抽出部３１は、ユーザＵにより入力された言語情報に基づいて、記憶部２０から、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を抽出する。そして、抽出部３１は、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を、作図部３２へ出力する。 The extraction unit 31 extracts the feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information from the storage unit 20 based on the language information input by the user U. Then, the extraction unit 31 outputs the feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information to the drawing unit 32.
　作図部３２は、言語情報、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報が座標軸として設定された座標平面における各象限（例えば、第１象限、第２象限、第３象限、第４象限）に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報をマッピングしたマッピング画像情報を生成する。そして、作図部３２は、マッピング画像情報を、判定部３３および出力部４０へ出力する。 The drawing unit 32 is based on the language information, the feature information corresponding to the language information, and the image information imaged from the language information, and each quadrant (for example, for example) in the coordinate plane in which the feature information corresponding to the language information is set as the coordinate axis. Mapping image information is generated by mapping the image information imaged from the linguistic information to the first quadrant, the second quadrant, the third quadrant, and the fourth quadrant). Then, the drawing unit 32 outputs the mapping image information to the determination unit 33 and the output unit 40.
　判定部３３は、作図部３２から入力されたマッピング画像情報に基づいて、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報のマッピングを、継続するか又は中止するかを判定する。そして、判定部３３は、判定結果を、抽出部３１へ出力する。 The determination unit 33 determines whether to continue or stop the mapping of the image information imaged from the language information based on the mapping image information input from the drawing unit 32. Then, the determination unit 33 outputs the determination result to the extraction unit 31.
　例えば、判定部３３は、作図部３２から入力されたマッピング画像情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報が座標軸として設定された座標平面における各象限に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を、さらにマッピングすべきである、と判定する場合、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報のマッピングを、継続するという判定結果を、抽出部３１へ出力する。この場合、抽出部３１は、再び、ユーザＵにより入力された言語情報に基づいて、記憶部２０から、言語情報に対応する特徴情報および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を抽出し、作図部３２は、再び、言語情報、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報が座標軸として設定された座標平面における各象限に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報をマッピングする。 For example, the determination unit 33 displays the image information imaged from the language information in each quadrant in the coordinate plane in which the feature information corresponding to the language information is set as the coordinate axis based on the mapping image information input from the drawing unit 32. When it is determined that the mapping should be further performed, the determination result that the mapping of the image information imaged from the linguistic information is continued is output to the extraction unit 31. In this case, the extraction unit 31 again extracts the feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information from the storage unit 20 based on the language information input by the user U, and the drawing unit 32. Again, based on the linguistic information, the feature information corresponding to the linguistic information, and the image information imaged from the linguistic information, the linguistic information in each quadrant in the coordinate plane in which the feature information corresponding to the linguistic information is set as the coordinate axis. Map the image information imaged from.
　例えば、判定部３３は、作図部３２から入力されたマッピング画像情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報が座標軸として設定された座標平面における各象限に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を、さらにマッピングすべきでない、と判定する場合、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報のマッピングを、中止するという判定結果を、抽出部３１へ出力する。この場合、抽出部３１は、記憶部２０から、言語情報に対応する特徴情報および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を抽出しない。 For example, the determination unit 33 displays the image information imaged from the language information in each quadrant in the coordinate plane in which the feature information corresponding to the language information is set as the coordinate axis based on the mapping image information input from the drawing unit 32. When it is determined that the mapping should not be further performed, the determination result that the mapping of the image information imaged from the linguistic information is stopped is output to the extraction unit 31. In this case, the extraction unit 31 does not extract the feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information from the storage unit 20.
　出力部４０は、各種情報を出力（表示）する。出力部４０は、例えば、液晶ディスプレイ、有機ＥＬ（Electro－Luminescence）ディスプレイ、スピーカーなどである。例えば、出力部４０は、作図部３２から入力されたマッピング画像情報に基づいて、所定のマッピング画像を表示する。出力部４０は、発想支援装置１００と一体化されていてもよいし、別々に設けられていてもよい。 The output unit 40 outputs (displays) various information. The output unit 40 is, for example, a liquid crystal display, an organic EL (Electro-Luminescence) display, a speaker, or the like. For example, the output unit 40 displays a predetermined mapping image based on the mapping image information input from the drawing unit 32. The output unit 40 may be integrated with the idea support device 100, or may be provided separately.
　また、出力部４０は、言語情報が制御部３０に入力されるタイミングに応じて、マッピング画像の表示又は非表示を選択することも可能である。例えば、所定の言語情報（例えば、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報）が制御部３０に入力されたタイミングと、所定の言語情報以外の言語情報（例えば、「野球」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報）が制御部３０に入力されたタイミングと、の間隔が所定時間以上である場合、出力部４０は、所定の言語情報に基づくマッピング画像を表示してよい。例えば、所定の言語情報（例えば、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報）が制御部３０に入力されたタイミングと、所定の言語情報以外の言語情報（例えば、「野球」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報）が制御部３０に入力されたタイミングと、の間隔が、所定時間未満である場合、出力部４０は、所定の言語情報に基づくマッピング画像を表示しなくてよい。なお、当該所定時間は、例えば、制御部３０により設定可能である。 Further, the output unit 40 can also select display or non-display of the mapping image according to the timing at which the language information is input to the control unit 30. For example, the timing at which predetermined language information (for example, information indicating the competition name of the sport "tennis") is input to the control unit 30, and language information other than the predetermined language information (for example, the competition of the sport "baseball"). When the interval between the timing when the information indicating the name is input to the control unit 30 and the time is equal to or longer than a predetermined time, the output unit 40 may display a mapping image based on the predetermined language information. For example, the timing at which predetermined language information (for example, information indicating a sport name of "tennis") is input to the control unit 30, and language information other than the predetermined language information (for example, a sport of "baseball"). When the interval between the timing at which the name information) is input to the control unit 30 and the interval is less than a predetermined time, the output unit 40 does not have to display the mapping image based on the predetermined language information. The predetermined time can be set by, for example, the control unit 30.

＜発想支援方法＞
　図５を参照して、本実施形態に係る発想支援方法の一例について説明する。 <Idea support method>
An example of the idea support method according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
　ステップＳ１０１において、発想支援装置１００は、ユーザＵにより言語情報を入力する。例えば、ユーザＵが、マイクを用いて、「テニス」と発話することで、ユーザＵが発話した「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報が発想支援装置１００に発話入力される。例えば、ユーザＵが、タッチパネルを用いて、「テニス」とタップすることで、ユーザＵがタップした「テニス」というスポーツの競技名を示す情報が発想支援装置１００にテキスト入力される。 In step S101, the idea support device 100 inputs language information by the user U. For example, when the user U speaks "tennis" using a microphone, information indicating the sport name of the sport "tennis" spoken by the user U is utterly input to the idea support device 100. For example, when the user U taps "tennis" using the touch panel, information indicating the sport name of the sport "tennis" tapped by the user U is text-input to the idea support device 100.
　ステップＳ１０２において、発想支援装置１００は、言語情報、言語情報に対応する特徴情報（図２参照）、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報（図３参照）を記憶する。 In step S102, the idea support device 100 stores language information, feature information corresponding to the language information (see FIG. 2), and image information imaged from the language information (see FIG. 3).
　ステップＳ１０３において、発想支援装置１００は、ユーザＵにより入力された言語情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を抽出する。 In step S103, the idea support device 100 extracts the feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information based on the language information input by the user U.
　ステップＳ１０４において、発想支援装置１００は、言語情報、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報が座標軸として設定された座標平面における各象限に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報をマッピングする。 In step S104, the idea support device 100 is in a coordinate plane in which the feature information corresponding to the language information is set as a coordinate axis based on the language information, the feature information corresponding to the language information, and the image information imaged from the language information. Image information imaged from linguistic information is mapped to each quadrant.
　ステップＳ１０５において、発想支援装置１００は、マッピング画像情報に基づいて、所定のマッピング画像を表示する。 In step S105, the idea support device 100 displays a predetermined mapping image based on the mapping image information.
　例えば、発想支援装置１００は、図４Ａに示すように、座標軸「屋外」および座標軸「個人競技」に挟まれる第４象限に、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図されたマッピング画像を表示する。 For example, in the idea support device 100, as shown in FIG. 4A, an illustration imaged from the sport name "tennis" is drawn in the fourth quadrant sandwiched between the coordinate axis "outdoor" and the coordinate axis "individual sport". Display the mapping image.
　例えば、発想支援装置１００は、図４Ｂに示すように、座標軸「屋外」および座標軸「団体競技」に挟まれる第１象限に、「野球」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図され、座標軸「屋内」および座標軸「団体競技」に挟まれる第２象限に、「バレーボール」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図され、座標軸「屋内」および座標軸「個人競技」に挟まれる第３象限に、「卓球」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図され、座標軸「屋外」および座標軸「個人競技」に挟まれる第４象限に、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図されたマッピング画像を表示する。 For example, in the idea support device 100, as shown in FIG. 4B, an illustration imaged from the sport name "baseball" is drawn in the first quadrant between the coordinate axes "outdoor" and the coordinate axis "group competition". In the second quadrant between the coordinate axis "indoor" and the coordinate axis "group competition", an illustration imaged from the sport name "volleyball" is drawn, and the third quadrant sandwiched between the coordinate axis "indoor" and the coordinate axis "individual competition". An illustration imaged from the sport name "table tennis" is drawn in the quadrant, and the sport name "tennis" is imaged in the fourth quadrant between the coordinate axes "outdoor" and the coordinate axis "individual sport". Display the mapping image with the quadrant.
　例えば、発想支援装置１００は、図４Ｃに示すように、座標軸「屋外」および座標軸「団体競技」に挟まれる第１象限に、「野球」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図され、座標軸「屋内」および座標軸「団体競技」に挟まれる第２象限に、「バレーボール」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図され、座標軸「屋内」および座標軸「個人競技」に挟まれる第３象限に、「卓球」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストおよび「バドミントン」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図され、座標軸「屋外」および座標軸「個人競技」に挟まれる第４象限に、「テニス」というスポーツの競技名からイメージされるイラストが作図されたマッピング画像を表示する。 For example, in the idea support device 100, as shown in FIG. 4C, an illustration imaged from the sport name "baseball" is drawn in the first quadrant between the coordinate axes "outdoor" and the coordinate axis "group competition". In the second quadrant between the coordinate axis "indoor" and the coordinate axis "group competition", an illustration imaged from the sport name "volleyball" is drawn, and the third quadrant sandwiched between the coordinate axis "indoor" and the coordinate axis "individual competition". In the quadrant, an illustration imaged from the sport name "table tennis" and an illustration imaged from the sport name "badminton" are drawn, and the fourth quadrant is sandwiched between the coordinate axes "outdoor" and the coordinate axis "individual competition". Displays a mapping image with an illustration imaged from the sport name "tennis".
　ステップＳ１０６において、発想支援装置１００は、マッピング画像情報に基づいて、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報のマッピングを、継続するか又は中止するかを判定する。 In step S106, the idea support device 100 determines whether to continue or stop the mapping of the image information imaged from the language information based on the mapping image information.
　発想支援装置１００は、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報のマッピングを、継続すると判定する場合、ステップＳ１０３の処理へ戻る。この場合、発想支援装置１００は、座標平面上に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を重畳させる。すなわち、発想支援装置１００は、再び、ユーザＵにより入力された言語情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報を抽出し（ステップＳ１０３の処理）、再び、言語情報、言語情報に対応する特徴情報、および言語情報からイメージされる画像情報に基づいて、言語情報に対応する特徴情報が座標軸として設定された座標平面における各象限に、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報をマッピングし（ステップＳ１０４の処理）、再び、マッピング画像情報に基づいて、所定のマッピング画像を表示する（ステップＳ１０５の処理）。 When the idea support device 100 determines to continue the mapping of the image information imaged from the language information, the process returns to the process of step S103. In this case, the idea support device 100 superimposes the image information imaged from the linguistic information on the coordinate plane. That is, the idea support device 100 again extracts the feature information corresponding to the language information and the image information imaged from the language information based on the language information input by the user U (process in step S103), and again. Based on the language information, the feature information corresponding to the language information, and the image information imaged from the language information, the feature information corresponding to the language information is imaged from the language information in each quadrant in the coordinate plane set as the coordinate axis. The image information is mapped (process in step S104), and a predetermined mapped image is displayed again based on the mapped image information (process in step S105).
　一方、発想支援装置１００は、言語情報からイメージされる画像情報のマッピングを、中止すると判定する場合、処理を終了する。 On the other hand, the idea support device 100 ends the process when it is determined to stop the mapping of the image information imaged from the language information.
　上述の発想支援方法は、ユーザＵの発想を十分に支援することが可能となる。 The above-mentioned idea support method can sufficiently support the idea of user U.
