Abstract
An information processing apparatus and method provide logic for processing information. In one implementation, an information processing apparatus may include a receiving unit configured to receive an audio signal associated with a motion of a human mandible over a time period. The information processing apparatus may also include a determination unit configured to determine whether the motion of the human mandible corresponds to mastication, based on at least a power of the received audio signal during the time period.
Claims20
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a receiving unit configured to receive an audio signal associated with a motion of a human mandible over a time period;
- and
- a determination unit configured to determine whether the motion of the human mandible corresponds to mastication, based on at least a power of the received audio signal during the time period.
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- receiving an audio signal associated with a motion of a human mandible over a time period;
- and
- determining, using a processor, whether the motion of the human mandible corresponds to mastication, based on at least a power of the received audio signal during the time period.
A tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, that when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform a method, comprising:
- receiving an audio signal associated with a motion of a human mandible over a time period;
- and
- determining whether the motion of the human mandible corresponds to mastication, based on at least a power of the received audio signal during the time period.
