Abstract: An information processing apparatus determines, on the basis of a speech of a user to be evaluated, a reference feature quantity representing a feature of the user's speech at normal times, acquires audio feature quantity data of a target speech to be evaluated made by the user, and evaluates the feature of the target speech on the basis of a comparison result between the audio feature quantity of the target speech and the reference feature quantity.

Abstract: A captured image obtaining unit 50 of an output control device 10 obtains a captured image such as a polarization image from an imaging device 12. A space information obtaining unit 54 obtains a normal line and a position of a surface of an actual object in a space and a sound absorption coefficient at the surface. A correction coefficient obtaining unit 56 calculates energy of sound reaching a listener including sound reflected at the actual object and obtains a correction coefficient to be given to a level of a sound signal on the basis of the sound energy. An output unit 60 adjusts the sound signals by using the correction coefficient 62 and outputs the adjusted sound signals to speakers 16a and 16b.

Abstract: A feeling deduction unit 100 deduces a user's feeling. An internal state management unit 110 manages an internal state of an object and an internal state of a user on the basis of the deduced user's feeling. An action management unit 120 determines an action of the object on the basis of the internal state of the object. An output processing unit 140 causes the object to perform the action determined by the action management unit 120.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus by which smooth communication with a user by voice can be implemented is provided. The information processing apparatus presents a plurality of choices to the user, recognizes utterance contents of the user for selecting one of the plurality of choices, and specifies the choice selected by the user based on whether or not a phrase included in the recognized utterance contents of the user corresponds to a phrase included in a dictionary corresponding to each of the plurality of choices prepared in advance.
