[0008] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings

[0009] The memorization support system of this embodiment is a system that supports a learner in memorization learning. As an example, a learning application is provided that the learner uses on a terminal device such as a smartphone. The learner can use the functions of the memorization support system on the learning application. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a memorization assistance system 10 according to this embodiment.

[0010] The memorization assistance system 10 includes a memorization sheet creation unit 11, a memorization method specification unit 15, a memorization content creation unit 16, a memorization content provision unit 21, a memorization management unit 22, and a memory unit 23. The memorization sheet creation unit 11 includes an OCR unit 12, a variable area setting unit 13, and a variable area control unit 14. The memorization content creation unit 16 includes a mnemonic generation unit 17, a memory palace generation unit 18, an image content generation unit 19, and a story video generation unit 20.

[0011] The OCR unit 12 recognizes characters from the image of the object to be memorized using an OCR (Optical Character Reader) function. The image of the object to be memorized is, for example, an image captured from a textbook or reference book, and includes information about the object to be memorized. The information about the object to be memorized is written in characters. The OCR unit 12 recognizes the portion written in characters, identifies the characters, and converts the character portion of the image of the object to be memorized into character data. The characters here include numbers and symbols.

[0012] The variable area setting unit 13 displays an image of an object to be memorized including character data on a screen, accepts a designation of an area in the image of an object to be memorized in which display and non-display of characters can be switched by an operation of a learner, and sets the designated area as a variable area. The variable area can be switched between display and non-display.

[0013] The variable area control unit 14 displays a memorization object image including a variable area, and switches between displaying and hiding the variable area in response to a learner's operation. For example, the variable area is touched to switch between displaying and hiding the characters in the variable area.

[0014] The memorization method specification unit 15 specifies a suitable memorization method that is suitable for memorizing matters to be memorized (memorization matters) in the memorization object image. The memorization matters are written in characters in a variable area in the memorization object image or characters in an area including a variable area. In this embodiment, the memorization methods include a mnemonic method, an image memorization method, a place method, and a story memorization method. The mnemonic method is a memorization method that uses a sentence that has meaning by fitting numbers or symbols into other words that have the same or similar pronunciation. The image memorization method is a memorization method that uses an image related to the matter to be memorized. The place method is a memorization method that uses a memory palace in which the matters to be memorized are virtually arranged in each place of a virtual space including multiple places. The story memorization method is a memorization method that uses a story that reminds one of the matter to be memorized.

[0015] The mnemonic generator 17 generates a mnemonic for the numbers or symbols included in the memorization items. Specifically, the mnemonic generator 17 generates a memorization sentence with meaning by fitting the numbers or symbols included in the memorization items to other words with the same or similar pronunciation. The memory palace generator 18 generates a memory palace in which the memorization items are virtually arranged. The image content generator 19 generates memorization images related to the memorization items. The story video generator 20 generates a story video that visualizes a story that is reminiscent of the memorization items. The memorization content provider 21 presents the memorization content generated by the memorization content creator 16 to the learner. For example, the memorization content is incorporated into an application on the smartphone 51 that the learner uses for learning. The memorization manager 22 evaluates the effectiveness of the presented memorization content.

[0016] The storage unit 23 stores the learner information 24. Each unit of the memorization content creation unit 16 may create memorization content according to the characteristics of the learner indicated in the learner information 24. The memorization content providing unit 21 presents the memorization content generated by the memorization content creating unit 16 to the learner.

[0017] The memorization management unit 22 evaluates the effectiveness of the presented memorization content. If the evaluation by the memorization management unit 22 is low, the memorization content creation unit 16 may create memorization content using a memorization method other than the preferred memorization method, and the memorization content provision unit 21 may provide the new memorization content to the learner.

[0018] Each unit of the memorization support system 10 can operate in cooperation with various generative artificial intelligences 50. For example, the memorization content creation unit 16 may generate memorization content by giving instructions to the generative artificial intelligence 50 via a prompt. The generative artificial intelligence 50 assists in generating the memorization content according to the instructions given by the prompt. The generative artificial intelligence 50 may be disposed on the memorization support system 10. Alternatively, the generative artificial intelligence 50 may be disposed on an external server, and the memorization support system 10 may use the generative artificial intelligence 50 on the external server via a communication means. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration of the memorization assistance system.

[0019] The memorization assistance system 10 includes a processor 31, a main memory 32, a storage device 33, a communication device 34, an input device 35, and a display device 36. The processor 31, the main memory 32, the storage device 33, the communication device 34, the input device 35, and the display device 36 are connected to each other via a bus 37 so as to be able to communicate with each other.

[0020] The processor 31 is composed of, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), an MPU (Micro Processing Unit), a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), etc. The processor 31 reads and executes various programs stored in the main memory 32 or the storage device 33, thereby realizing various functions of the memorization assistance system 10.

[0021] The main memory 32 is a primary storage device that stores programs and data, and is, for example, a Random Access Memory (RAM), a Read Only Memory (ROM), or a non-volatile semiconductor memory (Non-Volatile RAM (NVRAM)).

[0022] The storage device 33 is, for example, a reading and writing device for recording media such as a Hard Disc Drive (HDD), a Solid State Drive (SSD), a storage system, an Integrated Circuit (IC) card, a Secure Digital (SD) memory card, or an optical recording medium (Compact Disc (CD), Digital Versatile Disc (DVD), etc.), or a storage area of ​​a cloud server.

[0023] The cache and register of the processor 31, the main memory 32, and the storage device 33 may be collectively referred to as memory. Necessary programs and data are loaded into the memory and executed, thereby executing information processing in the memorization assistance system 10. Various parameters such as thresholds may also be stored in the memory. Programs, databases, data sets, etc. may also be stored in the memory.

[0024] The communication device 34 is a wired or wireless communication interface that realizes communication with other devices such as an external server and a learner's terminal device via communication means such as a Local Area Network (LAN) or the Internet. For example, the communication device 34 is a Network Interface Card (NIC), a wireless communication module, a Universal Serial Interface (USB) module, or a serial communication module.

[0025] The input device 35 is a device that accepts input from a learner, and is, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, a touch panel, a card reader, or a voice input device.

[0026] The display device 36 is a device that provides various information to the learner. The display device 36 is, for example, a screen display device (such as a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) or a Head Mounted Display (HMD)), an audio output device, a printer, etc. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing performed by the memorization assistance system 10 according to this embodiment.

[0027] First, the flashcard sheet providing process (S101) is executed. The flashcard sheet providing process is a process in which characters are recognized from the image of the object to be memorized, a variable area is set based on the recognized characters, and the display and non-display of the set variable area are controlled. The flashcard sheet providing process will be described in detail later.

[0028] Next, a memorization content providing process (S102) is executed. The memorization content providing process is a process of identifying a memorization method suitable for the item to be memorized including the variable area in the memorization object image, and generating and providing memorization content based on the suitable memorization method.

[0029] In this way, in this embodiment, the provision of the memorization sheet and the provision of the memorization content by the suitable memorization method corresponding to the memorization sheet are executed sequentially. This allows the learner to study by the memorization method suitable for the matter to be memorized in addition to studying by the memorization sheet. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the details of the flashcard sheet provision process in S101 of FIG. In the flashcard providing process, first, the OCR unit 12 acquires input image data (S201).

[0030] Next, the variable area setting unit 13 accepts the designation of a variable area (S202). In this process, the variable area setting unit 13 accepts the designation of an area to be switched between visible and invisible on the image data based on an input from the learner. Next, the variable area setting unit 13 sets a variable area (S203). In this process, the variable area setting unit 13 sets a variable area based on the accepted designation.

[0031] As an example, the variable area is switched between display and non-display by a virtual red sheet function. The variable area control unit 14 alternately performs a process of hiding the variable area (S204) and a process of displaying the variable area (S205) in response to an operation from the learner. In addition, the variable area control unit 14 may read out the variable area by voice output when the variable area is switched from hidden to displayed (S206).

[0032] Note that here, the variable area is switched between visible and hidden using a virtual sheet function, but as another example, the variable area may be switched between visible and hidden by the learner covering it with an actual red sheet. The red sheet is a translucent red film sheet. By making the variable area red or a color similar to red (pink, orange, etc.), it becomes possible to freely switch between visible and hidden using the red sheet. Also, by painting the background green so as to cover the black text in the variable area, it becomes possible to freely switch between visible and hidden using the red sheet.

[0033] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a display example of a flashcard sheet with the variable area displayed. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a display example of a flashcard sheet with the variable area hidden. In FIG. 5, the characters in the variable area 41a are visible. On the other hand, in FIG. 6, the characters in the variable area 41b are not visible. By making the display switchable in this way, the learner can study by memorization while switching between displaying and hiding the variable area as necessary. In addition, the variable area may be editable by the learner. It may be possible to add, change, or delete markers or characters, or to freely write characters or pictures in the margins and erase them. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing details of the memorization content providing process in S102 of FIG. FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of the learner information.

[0034] 7, in the memorization content provision process, first, the memorization method specification unit 15 accepts the specification of the memorization matter (S301). Here, the learner specifies the content (memorization matter) that he / she wants to memorize to the system. For example, the learner may indicate the area of ​​the memorization matter in the memorization object image converted into character data.

[0035] Next, the memorization method specification unit 15 executes a memorization method selection process (S302). The memorization method selection process is a process for selecting a memorization method suitable for memorizing a memorization item based on the characteristics of the memorization item. Four types of memorization methods are provided: mnemonic method, place method, image memory method, and story memorization method. The selection here is important for improving the efficiency of memorization. The memorization method selection process will be described in detail later. After a memorization method is selected, processing is carried out according to the selected method.

[0036] When the mnemonic method is selected in the process of step S302, the mnemonic generation unit 17 generates a meaningful memorization sentence by fitting the numbers or symbols included in the memorization item to other words that have the same or similar pronunciation, and generates a mnemonic content (S303). In addition to displaying the memorization item and the mnemonic memorization sentence, the mnemonic content may include illustrations related to the memorization item, a song with a melody and rhythm of the memorization sentence, and a dance video of a character dancing to the song. The mnemonic generation unit 17 may generate the mnemonic memorization sentence, illustrations, song, and / or dance video by using the generative artificial intelligence 50. At this time, the mnemonic generation unit 17 may refer to information about the learner in the learner information 24 exemplified in FIG. 8, and create memorization sentences, illustrations, and dance videos that are familiar to the learner based on the characteristics of the learner.

[0037] The learner information 24 in Fig. 8 includes the learner number, sex, residential area, age, academic background, preferences, hobbies, and special skills of each learner. For example, learner number 002 is a 40-year-old female university graduate living in Chiba Prefecture who loves dogs and whose hobby is traveling. It is possible to create mnemonics that are familiar to the learner, taking into account their age, preferences, hobbies, etc.

[0038] If the image memorization method is selected in the process of step S302, the image content generation unit 19 executes an image content generation process (S304). The image content generation process is a process for generating images that visually express the matters to be memorized so that they can be easily memorized. The image content generation process uses mind maps, illustrations, and diagrams to help the learner visualize the matters to be memorized in his or her mind. The image content generation process will be described in detail later.

[0039] When the locus method is selected in the process of step S302, the memory palace generating unit 18 generates a memory palace in consideration of the characteristics of the learner, and sets it as memorization content (S305). The locus method is a memorization method that strengthens memory by arranging memorization matters in a virtual space. The memory palace is the virtual space. The learner can efficiently recall memories by tracing information as if walking around the space. The memory palace generating unit 18 may refer to information about the learner in the learner information 24 illustrated in FIG. 8, and create a memory palace with an atmosphere familiar to the learner based on the characteristics of the learner. The memorization content of the memory palace may have a function of reading out the reason why the information is arranged in the position where the memorization matter is arranged by touching the position on the screen. The memory palace generating unit 18 may generate the memory palace by using the generative artificial intelligence 50.

[0040] If the story memorization method is selected in the process of step S302, the story video generating unit 20 generates a story video that visualizes a story that is reminiscent of the memorization items (S306). The story video aims to make it easier for the learner to emotionally understand and remember the content, since it utilizes the flow of the story to assist memory. BGM (background music) suitable for the story may be added to the story video. The story video generating unit 20 may generate the story video by using the generative artificial intelligence 50. The story video generating unit 20 may refer to information about the learner in the learner information 24 illustrated in FIG. 8, and may match the structure and expression of the story to the individuality of the learner based on the characteristics of the learner.

[0041] When the generation of the memorization content by each memorization method is completed, the memorization content providing unit 21 provides the generated memorization content (S307). The learner can receive the memorization content optimized in a format that suits his / her characteristics. FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the details of the memorization method selection process. The memorization method selection process is a process for selecting an appropriate memorization method based on the characteristics of the item to be memorized.

[0042] First, the memorization method identification unit 15 judges whether the memorization item is a number or a symbol (S401). If the memorization item is a number or a symbol, the memorization method identification unit 15 proceeds to step S402. In step S402, the memorization method identification unit 15 selects a mnemonic as a suitable memorization method.

[0043] On the other hand, if the memorization items are not numbers or symbols in step S401, the memorization method identification unit 15 proceeds to step S403. In step S403, the memorization method identification unit 15 determines whether the memorization items have order. Order includes, for example, a chronological order such as history. Whether the memorization items have order may be determined, for example, by using the generative artificial intelligence 50. If the memorization items have order, the memorization method identification unit 15 proceeds to step S404. In step S404, the memorization method identification unit 15 selects the story memorization method as the preferred memorization method.

[0044] If the memorization items have no sequence in step S403, the memorization method identification unit 15 proceeds to step S405. In step S405, the memorization method identification unit 15 judges whether the memorization items have logic. Logic means, for example, the existence of a causal relationship between multiple events. Whether the memorization items have logic may be determined, for example, by using the generative artificial intelligence 50. If the memorization items have logic, the memorization method identification unit 15 proceeds to step S406. In step S406, the memorization method identification unit 15 selects the image memorization method as the preferred memorization method.

[0045] On the other hand, if the memorization items have no logic in step S405, the memorization method identification unit 15 proceeds to step S407. In step S407, the memorization method identification unit 15 selects the locus method as the preferred memorization method.

[0046] This memorization method selection process selects a suitable memorization method according to the characteristics of the item to be memorized, improving memory efficiency. Note that, as described above, an example of selecting a suitable memorization method by comparing the format and content of the item to be memorized with predetermined conditions has been shown here, but as another method, it is also possible to use the generative artificial intelligence 50 to select a suitable memorization method by providing the item to be memorized and asking for a suitable memorization method for it. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the image storage content creation process.

[0047] First, the image content generating unit 19 judges whether the amount of information contained in the memorization item is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (S501). If the amount of information is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold (YES in S501), the image content generating unit 19 generates a mind map image and sets it as memorization content (S502). The mind map visually promotes understanding of the content. The memorization content may be provided with a function that allows the mind map to be read aloud.

[0048] On the other hand, if the amount of information is less than the predetermined threshold (NO in S501), the image content generating unit 19 next judges whether the memorized matter is abstract or not (S503). For example, memorized matters related to procedures and rules may be considered abstract, and memorized matters related to the shape of an object may be considered not abstract, that is, concrete.

[0049] If the memorization matter is abstract (YES in S503), the image content generation unit 19 generates a schematic diagram that concisely expresses the relationship of the matters included in the memorization matter by using symbols and figures (S505). At this time, the image content generation unit 19 may generate the schematic diagram by using the generative artificial intelligence 50. The schematic diagram visually promotes understanding of the content.

[0050] If the matter to be memorized is not abstract (NO in S503), that is, if the matter to be memorized is concrete, the image content generating unit 19 generates an illustrated image in consideration of the characteristics of the learner such as the gender, age, and preferences, and sets it as memorization content (S504). The illustration visually promotes understanding of the content. The image content generating unit 19 may further generate a short video of about one minute based on the illustration and include it in the memorization content. The memorization content may also have a function in which the main character of the illustration reads out the matter to be memorized by voice on the video. In this case, the image content generating unit 19 may generate the illustration, the short video, and the reading video by using the generative artificial intelligence 50.

[0051] In this way, depending on the nature of the item to be memorized, a memorization image of either a mind map image, a schematic diagram, or an illustration image is created. This makes it possible to provide an image for memorization in the most suitable format depending on the nature of the item to be memorized. Next, a display example when the memorization assistance system 10 according to the present embodiment provides memorization content to a learner will be described.

[0052] Fig. 11 is a diagram showing a display example of a mnemonic. Referring to Fig. 11, a memorization item 42, a mnemonic 43 created based on the content of the memorization item 42, and an illustration 44 are displayed. A song or dance video may be played by operating this screen. A learner learns the memorization item 42 using the mnemonic 43 while being impressed by the illustration 44, and is thereby able to recall the memorization item 42 from the memorized mnemonic 43.

[0053] Fig. 12 is a diagram showing a display example of a mind map. Referring to Fig. 12, memorization matters 45 and a mind map 46 created based on the contents of the memorization matters 45 are displayed. By studying the mind map 46 together with the memorization matters 45, a learner can organize, understand, and memorize the complex memorization matters 45. In addition, it may be possible to play back a voice reading the mind map by operating this screen. The memorization management unit 22 may further include a time period management function, a repetition management function, and / or a memorization result management function, which will be described below. First, the time zone management function will be described.

[0054] Human memories are organized during sleep and are fixed as long-term memories, so the most efficient time for memorization is before going to bed. In addition, since the brain is in a good state after waking up and fatigue is relieved, it is expected that the memory will be fixed by a synergistic effect if the learner reviews the previous day's memorization in the morning. Therefore, the memorization management unit 22 may send a notification to the learner's smartphone 51 before going to bed and after waking up to encourage memorization. Next, the repetition management function will be described.

[0055] Since the human brain has a mechanism for consolidating memories through repeated stimulation, it is important to review information repeatedly. In general, it is considered desirable to repeatedly study information five or more times to consolidate memories. In addition, attention must be paid to the timing of repeated study, and it is important to review information without any gaps after memorizing it. Therefore, the memorization management unit 22 counts the number of repetitions for each memorization item and issues a notification urging the learner to repeat the information at least five times. In addition, the memorization management unit 22 manages the elapsed time since the memorization item was studied, and issues a notification urging the learner to repeat the study within a predetermined threshold time. Next, the memorization result management function will be described.

[0056] Presenting the progress of the rate of correct answers for memorization has the effect of maintaining the motivation of the learner. Different individuals may have different suitable memorization methods, and the effectiveness of memorization may be improved by using a memorization method suitable for the learner. Therefore, the memorization management unit 22 may record the results of the memorization learning and / or memorization confirmation test for each memorization method, and present the learner with the evaluation results such as the rate of correct answers for each memorization method and its progress and distribution. For example, the progress and distribution of the rate of correct answers for each memorization method may be displayed in a graph. In addition, if the evaluation of the memorization content using the suitable memorization method is low, memorization content using another memorization method may be created and the new memorization content may be provided to the learner.
