## Abstract

An information processing device, a program, and a detection device that enable easy odor determination are provided. The information processing device comprises a presentation unit and a provision unit. The presentation unit presents templates to information processing terminals in a selectable form. The templates include parameters for instructing an operation of a sensor at odor detection. The provision unit provides one of the templates, selected from an information processing terminal, to the information processing terminal.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An information processing apparatus, comprising a processor configured to execute a program so as to function as:
a presentation unit configured to present templates to an information processing terminal in a selectable manner,
each of the templates including a parameter that directs an operation of a sensor at a time of odor detection; and
a provision unit configured to provide the information processing terminal with a template selected from the information processing terminal among the templates.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein:
the processor is configured to function as an acquisition unit configured to acquire a detection result of the sensor from the information processing terminal.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein:
the processor is configured to function as a determination unit configured to perform determination of an odor based on the detection result using a determination model,
the determination model is a learned model that has machine-learned a relationship between an output of the sensor and an odor in advance,
each of the templates includes a specification of the determination model.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 3, wherein
each of the templates includes a label that expresses an odor in words, and
the determination unit indicates a result of the determination with a percentage of odor content corresponding to the label.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein:
the processor is configured to function as a registration unit configured to receive specifications of the parameter and the determination model, and newly register the template based on the received specifications.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 5, wherein
the processor is configured to function as a learning unit configured to perform machine learning based on words to be used as a label and a plurality of the detection results corresponding to the words and generate the determination model based on a result of the machine learning.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 6, wherein:
the processor is configured to function as a management unit configured to manage approval or disapproval of use by the information processing terminal and charging information, and
the charging information includes a usage fee of the template registered by the information processing terminal.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein
each of the templates includes a specification of the sensor.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program configured to allow a computer to operate as an information processing apparatus, wherein
the program is configured to allow the computer to function as the information processing apparatus according to claim 1.

### Claim 10

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program configured to allow a computer that is connected to a sensor to operate as an information processing terminal, wherein
the information processing terminal comprises:
an acquisition unit configured to acquire a template from an information processing apparatus, the template including a parameter that directs an operation of the sensor at a time of odor detection;
a controller configured to control the operation of the sensor based on the parameter;
a transmission unit configured to transmit a detection result of an odor by the sensor to the information processing apparatus; and
a presentation unit configured to present a determination result determined by the information processing apparatus based on the detection result.

### Claim 11

A detection apparatus for detecting an odor, comprising:
an acquisition unit configured to acquire a template from an information processing apparatus;
an odor detection unit configured to detect an odor by operating based on a parameter included in the template, the parameter directing an operation of the odor detection unit at a time of odor detection;
a transmission unit configured to transmit a detection result of an odor by the odor detection unit to the information processing apparatus; and
a presentation unit configured to present a determination result determined by the information processing apparatus based on the detection result.
