Information Processing Interface for Agenda-Based Summary Source Checking

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing meeting systems struggle to create summaries for each agenda during a meeting, making it difficult to check utterance results corresponding to their sources, thus reducing the convenience of displaying summary results.

Innovation Solution

An information processing system that sets agendas, acquires user voices, converts them into text, generates summary sentences for each agenda, and displays the text and summary sentences side by side on a display screen, allowing users to easily identify the source of the summary.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If summary results are displayed without showing utterance sources, then the display is simple and clear, but it becomes difficult to check the source of the summary

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveconvenience of checking summary sourceVSAvoidcomplexity of display structure

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The display is segmented into multiple regions: a first region displaying summary results and a second region displaying utterance contents. This segmentation allows users to view both the summary and its source materials simultaneously without mixing them, thus improving the convenience of checking summary sources while maintaining a structured and organized display layout.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If summaries are created for multiple agendas simultaneously, then the system covers more meeting content, but it becomes difficult to create and display summaries for each agenda separately

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveability to handle multiple agendasVSAvoidcomplexity of summary generation process

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system divides the meeting content into multiple sections based on different agendas. Each agenda has its own dedicated display region and summary generation process. This segmentation enables the system to handle multiple agendas simultaneously while keeping each agenda's summary creation and display process independent and manageable.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The display interface dynamically switches between different agenda summaries based on user selection or meeting progression. The system can adaptively display relevant summary regions according to the current meeting context, making the multi-agenda system flexible and easy to use without requiring permanent complex configurations for all agendas.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

3Loss of information

If only summary results are displayed without utterance contents, then the display is concise, but it loses the ability to show the relationship between summary and source

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveinformation about utterance sourceVSAvoiddisplay screen space

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The display screen is divided into distinct regions: a first region for summary results and a second region for utterance contents. This segmentation allows both types of information to be displayed simultaneously without overlapping, preserving the relationship between summary and source while utilizing the display screen space efficiently through structured layout.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A meeting assistance device includes a setting processor that sets agendas for conversations, an acquisition processor that acquires voices uttered by users, a conversion processor that converts the voices acquired by the acquisition processor into text information, a generation processor that generates, based on the text information to be converted by the conversion processor, summary sentences summarizing utterance contents of the users for each of the agendas set by the setting processor, and a display processor that causes the text information to be converted by the conversion processor and the summary sentences corresponding to the agendas and generated by the generation processor to be displayed side by side on a display screen.
