QUESTION GENERATION APPARATUS, QUESTION GENERATION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240184816 titled 'QUESTION GENERATION APPARATUS, QUESTION GENERATION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

The patent application describes a question generation apparatus that includes a processor carrying out various processes to generate questions with multiple answers.

  • Acquiring process: The processor acquires a plurality of character strings and pieces of text.
  • Question generating process: For each character string, the processor generates a question with the answer being that specific character string.
  • Ambiguity judging process: The processor judges if there are multiple answers to each question generated.
  • Outputting process: The apparatus outputs questions that have been identified to have multiple answers.
    • Potential Applications:**

- Educational platforms for generating practice questions. - Quiz and trivia apps for creating challenging questions. - Content creation tools for generating engaging quizzes.

    • Problems Solved:**

- Streamlining the process of creating questions with multiple answers. - Enhancing user engagement by providing diverse question formats. - Improving learning outcomes through interactive questioning.

    • Benefits:**

- Increased user engagement and interaction. - Enhanced learning experience through varied question types. - Efficient creation of challenging quizzes and assessments.

    • Commercial Applications:**
  • Optimized Question Generation Technology for Enhanced User Engagement and Learning*
    • Prior Art:**

No prior art information available at this time.

    • Frequently Updated Research:**

There is ongoing research in natural language processing and machine learning to improve question generation algorithms and techniques.

    • Questions about Question Generation Technology:**

1. How does the apparatus determine if a question has multiple answers? 2. What are the potential implications of using this technology in educational settings?


Original Abstract Submitted

at least one processor included in a question generation apparatus carries out: an acquiring process of acquiring a plurality of character strings and pieces of text; a question generating process of generating, for each of the plurality of character strings, a question an answer to which is that character string; an ambiguity judging process of judging, for each of a plurality of questions, whether there are a plurality of answers to that question; and an outputting process of outputting a question which has been judged to be the question to which there are a plurality of answers.
