These various types of communication modules can be integrated into a single component (e.g., a single chip) or implemented as multiple separate components (e.g., multiple chips). The wireless communication module (192) can verify or authenticate the electronic device (101) within a communication network such as the first network (198) or the second network (199) by using subscriber information (e.g., an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI)) stored in the subscriber identification module (196).
[0057] The wireless communication module (192) can support 5G networks and next-generation communication technologies following the 4G network, such as NR access technology (new radio access technology). The NR access technology can support high-speed transmission of high-capacity data (eMBB (enhanced mobile broadband)), minimization of terminal power and connection of multiple terminals (mMTC (massive machine type communications)), or high reliability and low latency (URLLC (ultra-reliable and low-latency communications)).

For example, the electrode regions (213, 214) may include a first electrode region (213) and a second electrode region (214) arranged on a second surface (210B) of the housing (210). The sensor module (211) may be configured such that the electrode regions (213, 214) obtain an electric signal from a part of the user's body, and the biosignal detection circuit detects bioinformation of the user based on the electric signal. According to one embodiment, the electronic device (200) may include a plurality of electrode regions (not shown). For example, the electronic device (200) may include electrode regions (e.g., a third electrode region, a fourth electrode region) (not shown) arranged on a side surface (210C). The electronic device (200) may be energized when at least two or more of the plurality of electrode regions (e.g., the first electrode region (213), the second electrode region (214), the third electrode region, and the fourth electrode region) come into contact with the user's skin, and the electronic device (200) may obtain an electric signal from a part of the user's body through the energization. The electronic device (200) may obtain a user's biosignal based on the electric signal in the circuit for detecting a biosignal. For example, the electronic device (200) may obtain a user's biosignal based on a difference in electrostatic capacity that occurs when at least two or more of the plurality of electrode regions (e.g., the first electrode region (213), the second electrode region (214), the third electrode region, and the fourth electrode region) come into contact with the user's skin in the circuit for detecting a biosignal. According to one embodiment, biosignals obtained from multiple electrode regions may be provided to a processor of an electronic device (200) (e.g., processor (120) of FIG. 1).
[0075] According to one embodiment, the sensor module (211) may include a photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor. The PPG sensor may include an ultra violet (UV) light emitting diode (LED) that emits light and a photo diode (PD) that receives reflected light. For example, the wavelength of light emitted through the UV LED may be in a band of approximately 300 nm (nanometer) to 400 nm. When the electronic device (200) is worn by a user, the UV LED and the PD may be arranged on the electronic device (200) so as to be in contact with the user's skin.

[0076] According to one embodiment, a temperature sensor (not shown) may be included on the second surface (210B) of the electronic device (200). The temperature sensor may measure the user's skin temperature or body temperature by reflecting the characteristics of electromagnetic waves radiated by an object according to its temperature. For example, the temperature sensor may include a non-contact IR temperature sensor. For example, the temperature sensor may include a temperature sensor that measures the temperature of the temperature sensor because the temperature of the sensor may affect the sensing operation due to the characteristics of the non-contact temperature sensor. For example, the temperature sensor that measures the temperature of the temperature sensor (e.g., the internal temperature of the electronic device (200)) may include a thermistor. For example, the object may have a temperature higher than absolute zero K (-273.15°C) and reflect electromagnetic waves of a wavelength corresponding to the temperature. As the temperature increases, the wavelength of the radiated electromagnetic waves may become shorter and the amount of radiated energy may increase. A temperature sensor can detect temperature by utilizing the Seebeck effect, which generates an electromotive force depending on the temperature difference between the hot junction and the cold junction of an internal thermopile.
[0077] The key input devices (202, 203, 204) may include a wheel key (202) disposed on a first side (210A) of the housing (210) and rotatable in at least one direction, and / or a side key button (203, 204) disposed on a side surface (210C) of the housing (210).

[0086] Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are substances that are created when proteins or fats are glycated and glycated. Examples include carboxyethyl-lysine (CEL), carboxymethyl-lysine (CML), methylglyoxal-derived hydroimidazolone 1 (MGH1), and pentosidine. AGEs are substances associated with aging and can progress and worsen degenerative diseases such as diabetes, arteriosclerosis, chronic renal failure, and Alzheimer's disease. Various factors affect the formation of AGEs, including diet, lack of exercise, obesity, stress, and lack of sleep. AGEs accumulate in various parts of the human body (e.g., organs, muscles, joints, blood vessels, skin), and can be associated with health indicators related to aging, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and complications in diabetic patients. Although high AGE levels do not necessarily directly lead to disease onset, they can influence the development of other diseases, necessitating management of AGE levels in daily life. A method for providing users with information related to AGE is described in detail below, with reference to Figures 4 through 15.
[0087] FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a method for transmitting a first AGE data set to an external electronic device according to one embodiment.
[0088] The following operations 410 to 460 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1, the electronic device (200) of FIGS. 2A and 2B, or the electronic device (300) of FIG. 3). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1), a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module (210) of FIGS. 2A and 2B or a PPG sensor), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 or the display (220) of FIG. 3). The electronic device may be a wearable device such as a watch or a ring, and is not limited to the described embodiments.
[0089] In operation 410, the electronic device may output light having a target wavelength through the PPG sensor. For example, the UV LED of the PPG sensor may output light having a target wavelength. The target wavelength may be a band of approximately 300 nm to 400 nm. When the light emitted through the PPG sensor penetrates the user's skin and irradiates AGEs in blood vessels, the AGEs fluoresce. According to one embodiment, the electronic device may irradiate UV light from a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module (211) of FIG. 2B) toward the user's skin and then measure a fluorescence signal generated when the irradiated UV light reacts with advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the user's skin.
[0090] According to one embodiment, the electronic device may determine whether the user wearing the electronic device is in a preset state (e.g., a sleeping state) and output light if the user is in a sleeping state. A method for outputting light if the user is in a sleeping state is described in detail below with reference to FIG. 5 .
[0091] In operation 420, the electronic device may generate a reception signal by receiving reflected light through the PPG sensor. For example, the PD of the PPG sensor may generate a reception signal by receiving light reflected by the AGE. The magnitude of the reception signal may increase as the amount of fluorescent AGE increases.
[0092] In operation 430, the electronic device can determine an AGE value based on a received signal generated by the PPG sensor. The primary AGE value determined based on the received signal can have an index value between 0 and 5. For example, as the amount of AGE increases, the value of the AGE value can increase, and as the amount of AGE decreases, the value of the AGE value can decrease. Contrary to the above example, the index values can be set such that as the amount of AGE increases, the value of the AGE value decreases, and as the amount of AGE decreases, the value of the AGE value increases. Additionally, the electronic device can obtain a secondary AGE value based on the primary AGE value. For example, the secondary AGE value can be obtained by multiplying the primary AGE value by a preset value (e.g., 100).
[0093] According to one embodiment, operations 410 to 430 may be performed multiple times for a first target time. For example, if the current time is 2:00 AM, the first target time may be 2:00 AM, and operations 410 to 430 may be performed multiple times during a preset time period to generate multiple AGE values.
[0094] In operation 440, the electronic device may determine a first representative AGE value for the first target time based on the AGE value. For example, the electronic device may determine the first representative AGE value for the first target time based on a plurality of AGE values associated with the first target time. An average value of the plurality of AGE values may be determined as the first representative AGE value. At least one outlier among the plurality of AGE values may be determined. An AGE value determined as an outlier may be excluded during the process of determining the first representative AGE value.
[0095] In operation 450, the electronic device may generate a first AGE data set for a first measurement session based on a first representative AGE value. The first measurement session may be a session for a continuous sleep time. For example, if the user slept from 1:00 AM to 6:30 AM, a first representative AGE value may be determined for 1:00 AM, a second representative AGE value may be determined for 2:00 AM, a third representative AGE value may be determined for 3:00 AM, a fourth representative AGE value may be determined for 4:00 AM, a fifth representative AGE value may be determined for 5:00 AM, and a sixth representative AGE value may be determined for 6:00 AM. The electronic device may generate the first AGE data set for the first measurement session to include the first representative AGE value through the sixth representative AGE value.
[0096] In operation 460, the electronic device may transmit the first AGE data set to an external electronic device directly or indirectly connected to the electronic device. For example, the external electronic device may be a mobile terminal such as a smartphone. As a non-limiting example, the external electronic device may be a server (e.g., server (108) of FIG. 1).
[0097] The external electronic device may have higher data processing capabilities (e.g., speed, volume) than the electronic device. The external electronic device may obtain various data or information about the user (e.g., the user of the electronic device) and, by processing the first AGE data set together with other information, provide the user with processed information related to AGE. A method for providing AGE-related information to the user, performed by the external electronic device, is described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 9 through 16.
[0098] FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for outputting light when the user's state is a sleep state, according to one embodiment.
[0099] Operations 510 and 520 below may be associated with operation 410 described above with reference to FIG. 4. For example, operation 410 may include operations 510 and 520. Operations 510 and 520 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 or the electronic device (200) of FIGS. 2A and 2B). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1), a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module (210) of FIGS. 2A and 2B or a PPG sensor), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 or the display (220) of FIG. 3).
[0100] In operation 510, the electronic device can determine whether the user's state is a sleeping state. For example, the electronic device can obtain movement information using a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module (176) of FIG. 1) and can be configured to generate a movement signal (e.g., an acceleration signal, an angular velocity signal, a geomagnetic signal) as data used to obtain the movement information. For example, the sensor module can include an inertial measurement unit (IMU) configured with an acceleration sensor, a gyroscope (or an angular velocity sensor), and a geomagnetic sensor (magnetometer). The electronic device can determine the user's state as a sleeping state using the acceleration sensor or the IMU (inertial measurement unit) when the user's movement is limited.
[0101] In operation 520, the electronic device can output light having a target wavelength through the PPG sensor when the user's state is a sleeping state.
[0102] FIG. 6 is a flowchart of a method for outputting a target AGE indicator according to one embodiment.
[0103] The operations 610 to 630 below may be performed after the operation 450 described above is performed with reference to FIG. 4. The operations 610 to 630 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 or the electronic device (200) of FIGS. 2A and 2B). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1), a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module (210) of FIGS. 2A and 2B or a PPG sensor), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 or the display (220) of FIG. 3).
[0104] In operation 610, the electronic device may obtain a first AGE score for the first measurement session based on the first AGE data set. The first AGE score may be higher as the AGE value decreases. A lower AGE value may indicate a lower amount of AGE in the user's blood, which may indicate that the user is relatively healthy. The user's health level corresponding to the AGE value may be expressed as a score, and the lower the AGE value, the higher the AGE score corresponding to the AGE value.
[0105] For example, an electronic device can obtain a first AGE score corresponding to the input of the first AGE data set using a stored library. For example, the library may be an artificial intelligence model based on a neural network.
[0106] In operation 620, the electronic device may generate a target AGE index based on the first AGE score. For example, the electronic device may accumulate the first AGE score in association with the date the first AGE score was generated. The electronic device may accumulate the first AGE score so as to be associated with AGE scores obtained prior to obtaining the first AGE score. The electronic device may generate the target AGE index using the accumulated AGE scores. For example, the electronic device may generate the target AGE index by graphing the AGE scores so that the scores appear along with their associated dates. The target AGE index may be a trajectory of AGE scores that changes over time.
[0107] In operation 630, the electronic device may output a target AGE indicator. For example, the electronic device may output the target AGE indicator via a display. The target AGE indicator may be configured and output as part of a user interface (UI).
[0108] FIG. 7 is a flowchart of a method for obtaining a first AGE score according to one embodiment.
[0109] Operations 710 and 720 below may be associated with operation 610 described above with reference to FIG. 6 . For example, operation 610 may include operations 710 and 720. Operations 710 and 720 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 or the electronic device (200) of FIGS. 2A and 2B ). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1 ), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1 ), a sensor module (e.g., the sensor module (210) of FIGS. 2A and 2B or a PPG sensor), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 or the display (220) of FIG. 3 ).
[0110] In operation 710, the electronic device may obtain the user's body data. For example, the body data may include at least one of height, weight, age, and gender.
[0111] In operation 720, the electronic device may obtain a first AGE score by processing the user's body data and the first AGE data set using an artificial intelligence model. For example, the electronic device may obtain a first AGE score by processing the user's age and the first AGE data set using an artificial intelligence model. Other body data (e.g., height, weight, or gender) other than the user's age may be further utilized to obtain the first AGE score.
[0112] For example, different first AGE scores may be obtained for the same first AGE data set depending on body data.
[0113] FIG. 8 illustrates a screen on which a target AGE indicator is output, according to one embodiment.
[0114] According to one embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 or the electronic device (200) of FIGS. 2A and 2B) may output a screen (810) on which a target AGE indicator (814) appears. The screen (810) on which the target AGE indicator (814) is output may include a UI (812) that may receive period information associated with the target AGE indicator (814) from the user. For example, if 7 days is selected by the user, a target AGE indicator (814) based on the AGE scores of the most recently generated 7 days may be output. For example, the AGE scores in the target AGE indicator (814) are shown to have a large degree of change, but the change in the AGE scores may not be large within a short period of time.
[0115] FIG. 9 is a flowchart of a method for outputting a target AGE indicator and multiple contributing indicators according to one embodiment.
[0116] The following operations 910 to 960 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1). The electronic device may be a mobile terminal such as a smart phone, and is not limited to the described embodiments.
[0117] In operation 910, the electronic device may receive a user's first AGE data set for a first measurement session from an external electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (200) of FIGS. 2A and 2B).
[0118] In operation 920, the electronic device may obtain a first AGE score for the first measurement session based on the first AGE data set. The description of operation 920 may be replaced with the description of operation 610 described above with reference to FIG. 6, and thus, redundant descriptions are omitted.
[0119] In operation 930, the electronic device may generate a target AGE index based on the first AGE score. The description of operation 930 may be replaced with the description of operation 620 described above with reference to FIG. 6, and thus, redundant descriptions are omitted.
[0120] In operation 940, the electronic device may generate multiple contribution indicators for multiple contributing factors corresponding to a target AGE indicator based on health data about the user. The electronic device may integrate data that can be recorded or stored about the user and manage them as health data. For example, the health data may include at least one of body data, activity data, food intake data, sleep data, and physiological data. A contribution factor may be determined based on the health data. A specific contribution factor may directly correspond to a single sub-data of the health data or may be extracted or obtained by a combination of two or more sub-data. For example, the contribution factor may include a stress factor, a weight factor, an exercise factor, a sleep factor, a food factor, and a blood sugar factor, but is not limited to the described embodiments. The stress factor may include at least one of a normal heart rate and a meditation time. The exercise factor may include at least one of calories burned and an exercise time. The food factor may include at least one of calories consumed and nutrients consumed. Sleep factors may include at least one of sleep duration, sleep heart rate, and sleep heart rate variability. Blood sugar factors may include glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) levels.
[0121] The electronic device can generate a first contribution index for the first contributing factor. For example, if the first contributing factor is a stress factor, the electronic device can obtain the user's stress data from health data and generate a stress index for the stress factor based on the stress data. The electronic device can obtain the user's stress levels in advance. The electronic device can generate the stress index by displaying a graph showing the stress levels along with associated dates. The stress index can be a trajectory of the stress level as it changes over time.
[0122] The electronic device can generate a second contribution index for a second contributing factor. For example, if the second contributing factor is weight, the electronic device can obtain the user's weight data from health data and generate a weight index for the weight factor based on the weight data. The electronic device can obtain the user's weights in advance. The electronic device can generate the weight index by displaying a graph showing the weights along with associated dates. The weight index can be a trajectory of weights over time.
[0123] In one embodiment, a plurality of contributing factors may be preset. For example, default contributing factors may be set by the policy or algorithm of an application installed on the electronic device, and at least some of the default contributing factors may change when the application is updated. The electronic device may determine a plurality of contributing factors among the default contributing factors based on selection input received from the user. Contribution factors that the user does not wish to track may not be included in the plurality of contributing factors. The electronic device may provide the user with a dashboard as a UI for selecting at least some of the default contributing factors. Contribution factors for which insufficient data is available for generating contribution metrics may not be included in the plurality of contributing factors.
[0124] According to one embodiment, if there is insufficient data to generate a third contribution indicator for a third contribution indicator among the plurality of contributing factors, the electronic device may not generate the third contribution indicator. The electronic device may output a notification message that prompts the generation or recording of data for the third contribution indicator. For example, if there is insufficient data to generate a blood glucose indicator, the electronic device may output a notification message that prompts the generation or recording of blood glucose data as physiological data. The notification message may include a notification recommending the purchase of an external electronic device or sensor capable of generating blood glucose data.
[0125] At operation 950, the electronic device can calculate a similarity between the target AGE metric and each of the plurality of contributing metrics.
[0126] According to one embodiment, the electronic device may calculate a first similarity for a first contribution metric based on a target change trend between values of the target AGE metric and a first change trend between values of first contribution metric among the plurality of contribution metric. The electronic device may calculate a second similarity for a second contribution metric based on a target change trend between values of the target AGE metric and a second change trend between values of second contribution metric among the plurality of contribution metric.
[0127] A change trend can be expressed based on the rate of increase or decrease of values over a specific period. For example, if during a first period, the values of the target AGE metric increase, the values of the first contributing metric increase, and the values of the second contributing metric decrease, the first similarity for the first contributing metric may be calculated to be greater than the second similarity for the second contributing metric. In other words, the more similar the graph (or trajectory) of the contributing metric is to the graph of the target AGE metric, the higher the similarity can be calculated.
[0128] In operation 960, the electronic device may display a target AGE indicator and multiple contribution indicators based on the calculated similarities. For example, a contribution indicator with the highest similarity may be arranged closer to the target AGE indicator. When the target AGE indicator and multiple contribution indicators are arranged and displayed in a single column, the target AGE indicator may be arranged relatively at the top of the screen, and each of the multiple contribution indicators may be arranged on the screen such that the higher the similarity, the closer to the target AGE indicator they are arranged.
[0129] Users can perceive the correlation between a target AGE indicator and a contributing indicator for changes in AGE based on the distance between the target AGE indicator and the contributing indicator. For example, if the target AGE indicator and the weight indicator are closest to each other, indicating a trend toward an increase in the target AGE indicator and a trend toward an increase in weight, the user can perceive that the increase in weight likely contributed to the increase in AGE. Below, referring to Figures 13 and 14, a method for displaying the target AGE indicator and multiple contributing indicators based on the calculated similarities is described in detail.
[0130] In one embodiment, the electronic device may output a message that presents advice or solutions for managing AGE, in addition to the target AGE indicator and multiple contributing indicators. Through these solutions, the user can experience the improvement effect of the AGE indicator, identify effective improvement methods that are suitable for them, and maintain and / or promote effective improvement methods. A method for outputting the above message is described in detail below with reference to Figure 14.
[0131] FIG. 10 is a flowchart of a method for obtaining a first AGE score based on body data and a first AGE data set, according to one embodiment.
[0132] Operations 1010 and 1020 below may be associated with operation 920 described above with reference to FIG. 9 . For example, operation 920 may include operations 1010 and 1020. Operations 1010 and 1020 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 ). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1 ), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1 ), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 ).
[0133] In operation 1010, the electronic device may acquire body data among health data. For example, the body data may include height, weight, age, and / or gender.
[0134] In operation 1020, the electronic device may obtain a first AGE score by processing the body data and the first AGE data set using an artificial intelligence model. In one embodiment, different first AGE scores may be obtained for the same first AGE data set depending on the body data.
[0135] FIG. 11 is a flowchart of a method for generating a target AGE index based on period information and a first AGE score, according to one embodiment.
[0136] Operations 1110 and 1120 below may be associated with operation 930 described above with reference to FIG. 9 . For example, operation 930 may include operations 1110 and 1120. Operations 1110 and 1120 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 ). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., processor (120) of FIG. 1 ), a memory (e.g., memory (130) of FIG. 1 ), and a display (e.g., display module (160) of FIG. 1 ).
[0137] In operation 1110, the electronic device may obtain period information. For example, the electronic device may receive input of the period information through a user interface (e.g., UI (812) of FIG. 8) capable of receiving touch input and / or button input. According to one embodiment, a screen on which a target AGE indicator is displayed may include a UI capable of receiving period information associated with the target AGE indicator from a user. For example, the user may select one week, one month, one quarter, or one year as the period information through the UI. For example, the user may input any period as the period information.
[0138] In operation 1120, the electronic device may generate a target AGE indicator based on the period information and the first AGE score. For example, if a one-week period is selected, the target AGE indicator may be generated to display the AGE scores for the last seven days. For example, if a one-year period is selected, the target AGE indicator may be generated to display the AGE scores for the last year.
[0139] In one embodiment, multiple contributing metrics may also be changed to correspond to the target AGE metric.
[0140] FIG. 12 illustrates a method for calculating similarity between a target AGE indicator and each of a plurality of contributing indicators, according to one embodiment.
[0141] A first similarity between a target AGE indicator (1210) and a first contribution indicator (1220) may be calculated, and a second similarity between a target AGE indicator (1210) and a second contribution indicator (1230) may be calculated. Since the first change trend of the first contribution indicator (1220) is more similar to the target AGE indicator (1210) than the second change trend of the second contribution indicator (1220), the first similarity may be calculated to be higher than the second similarity.
[0142] FIG. 13 is a flowchart of a method for outputting a target AGE indicator and a plurality of contribution indicators based on output positions of a plurality of contribution indicators, according to one embodiment.
[0143] Operations 1310 and 1320 below may be associated with operation 960 described above with reference to FIG. 9 . For example, operation 960 may include operations 1310 and 1320. Operations 1310 and 1320 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 ). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1 ), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1 ), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 ).
[0144] In operation 1310, the electronic device may determine output positions of a plurality of contribution indicators associated with the target AGE indicator based on similarities between the target AGE indicator and the plurality of contribution indicators. For example, the output positions of the plurality of contribution indicators may be determined such that the higher the similarity, the closer the contribution indicator is to the target AGE indicator. When the target AGE indicator and the plurality of contribution indicators are aligned and output in a single column, the target AGE indicator may be positioned relatively at the top of the screen, and each of the plurality of contribution indicators may be positioned on the screen such that the higher the similarity, the closer the contribution indicator is to the target AGE indicator. The output position may be determined such that the contribution indicator with the highest similarity is positioned directly below the target AGE indicator.
[0145] In one embodiment, the electronic device may determine the output locations of multiple contributing indicators associated with a target AGE indicator based on preset exclusion factors. For example, if the data required to generate the contributing indicator is not available, the contributing indicator may be determined as an exclusion factor. For example, the exclusion factors may be selected by the user. For example, if the user has difficulty improving their sleeping environment, a contributing indicator for sleep may be selected as an exclusion factor. For contributing indicators set as exclusion factors, even if the similarity is calculated to be high, the output locations may not be determined.
[0146] In operation 1320, the electronic device can output the target AGE indicator and the plurality of contributing indicators through a display based on the output positions of the plurality of contributing indicators.
[0147] FIG. 14 illustrates a screen in which a target AGE indicator and multiple contribution indicators are output, according to one embodiment.
[0148] According to one embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1) may output a screen (1400) on which a target AGE indicator (1420), a first contribution indicator (1422), and a second contribution indicator (1424) appear. The screen (1400) may include a UI (1410) that may receive period information associated with the target AGE indicator (1420) from a user. For example, if 7 days is selected by the user, a target AGE indicator (1420) based on the most recently generated AGE scores for the 7 days may be output.
[0149] The target AGE indicator (1420) may be output in the first area (1430). The first contribution indicator (1422) having the highest similarity to the target AGE indicator (1420) may be output in the second area (1432). The second contribution indicator (1424) having the second highest similarity to the target AGE indicator (1420) may be output in the third area (1434).
[0150] According to one embodiment, the electronic device may analyze the tendency between the target AGE indicator (1420) and the first contribution indicator (1422), and output a first comment on the analyzed tendency in the fourth area (1440). The electronic device may analyze the tendency between the target AGE indicator (1420) and the second contribution indicator (1424), and output a second comment on the analyzed tendency in the fourth area (1440). For example, if the size of the fourth area (1440) is limited, the electronic device may output a summary comment summarizing the first comment and the second comment in the fourth area (1440). A detailed view icon (e.g., an arrow) may be further output in the fourth area (1440), and when the user selects the detailed view icon, the screen may be switched to provide a detailed comment. The electronic device may provide a solution for managing the AGE value as a detailed comment. The electronic device may generate the solution based on the user's health data. For example, at least one of the first comment, the second comment, or the solution may be generated using a generative AI model. In one embodiment, the generative AI model may include a large language model (LLM). For example, the large language model may be trained in two stages: pre-training and fine-tuning. Pre-training is the process of allowing the large language model to process a large amount of text data and acquire general linguistic knowledge, and may include, for example, self-supervised learning to predict the next word using a sequence of previous words in a text sequence.Fine-tuning is the process of training a large-scale language model to be suitable for a specific domain or task (e.g., chatbot, translation, summarization, Q&A, first-order comments, second-order comments, or solutions). Based on a pre-trained model, it can be further supervised (or adaptive) using a dataset that fits the domain's purpose.
[0151] FIG. 15 is a flowchart of a method for outputting a suggestion message so that an electronic device can obtain data for additional contributing elements, according to one embodiment.
[0152] The operations 1510 and 1520 below may be associated with the operation 950 described above with reference to FIG. 9. For example, operations 1510 and 1520 may be performed after operation 950 is performed. Operations 1510 and 1520 may be performed by an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 ). For example, the electronic device may include a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1 ), a memory (e.g., the memory (130) of FIG. 1 ), and a display (e.g., the display module (160) of FIG. 1 ).
[0153] In operation 1510, if the similarities between the target AGE indicator and the plurality of contributing indicators are below a preset threshold, the electronic device may determine additional contributing factors other than the plurality of contributing factors. If all similarities between the target AGE indicator and the plurality of contributing indicators are below the threshold, this may indicate that no contributing indicator properly reflects the trend of change in the currently measured target AGE indicator.
[0154] In one embodiment, the electronic device may determine, as an additional contributing factor, a contributing factor not included in the multiple contributing factors among the basic contributing factors that can be set by the policy or algorithm of the application installed on the electronic device. For example, if blood glucose data related to blood glucose is not acquired, the electronic device may determine the blood glucose factor as an additional contributing factor.
[0155] In operation 1520, the electronic device may output a suggestion message to enable the electronic device to obtain data on additional contributing factors. For example, if a blood glucose level is determined as an additional contributing factor, a suggestion message may be output indicating a method for obtaining blood glucose data. The suggestion message may include sales information for a device or sensor capable of generating blood glucose data. For example, if a sleep level is determined as an additional contributing factor, a suggestion message may be output prompting the user to enter sleep data.
[0156] An artificial intelligence model according to one embodiment may be an artificial neural network model written in a specified language and including a plurality of layers and / or operations (or calculations).

An AI model according to one embodiment can be trained on specified data, acquire input data, perform operations based on the input data, and generate output data. In addition to, or alternatively including, a hardware structure, the AI model may include a software structure.

The server (1630) may output the target AGE indicator and a plurality of contributing indicators through the display of the electronic device (1620). The server (1630) may generate a solution for managing the AGE value and output the generated solution through the display of the electronic device (1620). As a non-limiting example, the server (1630) may generate the solution using an artificial intelligence model.
[0161] According to one embodiment, the electronic device (1620) may perform operations 910 to 950 described above with reference to FIG. 9. The electronic device (1620) may transmit analysis results related to the similarity between the target AGE indicator generated by performing operation 950 and each of the plurality of contributing indicators to the server (1630). The analysis results transmitted to the server (1630) may be anonymized data. The server (1630) may generate a solution for managing the AGE value based on the received analysis results, and output the generated solution through the display of the electronic device (1620).
[0162] If the server (1630) can acquire a large amount of data on multiple users as big data, the server (1630) can use the big data to derive new contributing factors that affect the AGE indicator and further consider the new contributing factors when creating a solution.
