## Abstract

A system for generating guidance information for a driver includes a processor and a storage device. The storage device stores guidance history of the driver. The processor generates a feature value based on match/mismatch of guidance types abstracted from the guidance history. The processor determines a guidance type for the driver on the basis of the feature value. The processor generates information for issuing guidance of the determined guidance type to the driver according to driver monitoring information.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system for generating guidance information for a driver, the system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more storage devices that store a command code to be executed by the one or more processors,
wherein the one or more storage devices store guidance history of the driver, and
wherein the one or more processors
generate a feature value based on match/mismatch of guidance types abstracted from the guidance history,
determine a guidance type for the driver on the basis of the feature value, and
generate information for issuing guidance of the determined guidance type to the driver according to driver monitoring information,
wherein the one or more processors generate the feature value from guidance history of the prescribed number of days prior to a reference date, the reference date being a day on which guidance of the determined guidance type is issued to the driver, and
wherein the feature value includes at least one of the number of instances of guidance, the number of guidance types, the number of instances of guidance types having the most consecutive instances, and the number of instances of guidance of a same type as the guidance type on the reference date, within the prescribed number of days prior to the reference date.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system according to claim 1,
wherein the one or more processors
estimate a driving improvement degree of the driver resulting from guidance of multiple guidance type candidates on the basis of the feature value, and
select the guidance type from the multiple guidance type candidates on the basis of the driving improvement degree.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system according to claim 1,
wherein the feature value includes a feature value indicating a pattern of match/mismatch of the guidance type.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system according to claim 1,
wherein the one or more processors
divide vehicle measurement data included in the drive monitoring information into multiple time periods on the basis of a rule set in advance,
determine the danger type for driving in each of the time periods, and
generate information for issuing guidance of the determined guidance type to the driver according to information of the time period of the danger type corresponding to the guidance type.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system according to claim 1,
wherein the one or more storage devices store a work plan and work progress of the driver, and
wherein the one or more processors determine a time to present to the driver guidance of the determined guidance type while the driver is conducting activities, on the basis of the work plan and the work progress.

### Claim 6

A method for generating guidance information for a driver by a system, the method comprising:
providing one or more processors;
providing one or more storage devices that store a command code to be executed by the one or more processors, wherein the one or more storage devices store guidance history of the driver;
the system generating a feature value based on match/mismatch of guidance types abstracted from the guidance history of the driver;
the system determining a guidance type for the driver on the basis of the feature value; and
the system generating information for issuing guidance of the determined guidance type to the driver according to driver monitoring information,
wherein the one or more processors generate the feature value from guidance history of the prescribed number of days prior to a reference date, the reference date being a day on which guidance of the determined guidance type is issued to the driver, and
wherein the feature value includes at least one of the number of instances of guidance, the number of guidance types, the number of instances of guidance types having the most consecutive instances, and the number of instances of guidance of a same type as the guidance type on the reference date, within the prescribed number of days prior to the reference date.
