Abstract

A arousal level control apparatus calculates, under a limitation related to a physical quantity that affects an arousal level of a subject, a setting value for controlling the arousal level of the subject by using a physical quantity prediction model for calculating the physical quantity based on a setting value of the physical quantity and an arousal level prediction model for calculating a prediction value of the arousal level based on the calculated physical quantity calculated, and sets the calculated setting value to a control target device that affects the physical quantity.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A arousal level control apparatus comprising:
 at least one memory configured to store instructions; and   at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to:
 calculate, under a limitation related to a physical quantity that affects an arousal level of a subject, a setting value for controlling the arousal level of the subject by using a physical quantity prediction model for calculating the physical quantity based on a setting value of the physical quantity and an arousal level prediction model for calculating a prediction value of the arousal level based on the calculated physical quantity calculated; and 
 set the calculated setting value to a control target device that affects the physical quantity. 
   
     
     
         2 . The arousal level control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the instructions to calculate the setting value so that the arousal level becomes even higher. 
     
     
         3 . The arousal level control apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the instructions to calculate the setting value so that a sum or a mean value of prediction values of a variation in the arousal level becomes even greater for the one subject or more subjects. 
     
     
         4 . The arousal level control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the instructions to calculate the setting value that satisfies a limitation related to comfort scores calculated for the setting value. 
     
     
         5 . An arousal level control method comprising:
 calculating, under a limitation related to a physical quantity that affects an arousal level of a subject, a setting value for controlling the arousal level of the subject by using a physical quantity prediction model for calculating the physical quantity based on a setting value of the physical quantity and an arousal level prediction model for calculating a prediction value of the arousal level based on the calculated physical quantity calculated; and   setting the calculated setting value to a control target device that affects the physical quantity.   
     
     
         6 . A non-transitory recording medium storing a program which causes a computer to execute:
 calculating, under a limitation related to a physical quantity that affects an arousal level of a subject, a setting value for controlling the arousal level of the subject by using a physical quantity prediction model for calculating the physical quantity based on a setting value of the physical quantity and an arousal level prediction model for calculating a prediction value of the arousal level based on the calculated physical quantity calculated; and   setting the calculated setting value to a control target device that affects the physical quantity.
