Design support device, design support method, program, and design support system

Abstract

This design support device is provided with: an input reception unit that receives an input of a first formulation condition from an operator in a conversation format; a prompt generation unit that generates a prompt incorporating the first formulation condition; a first search unit that searches a database storing past experimental data for experimental data matching the first formulation condition by using a search condition generated by a language model on the basis of the prompt, and if there is no experimental data matching the first formulation condition, searches for experimental data matching a second formulation condition relaxing the first formulation condition; a prediction unit that predicts physical properties of a plurality of candidate formulations generated from formulation of experimental data matching the second formulation condition; a second search unit that searches the plurality of candidate formulations for a candidate formulation matching the first formulation condition on the basis of the search condition; and a formulation display unit that displays a candidate formulation matching the first formulation condition.
