1. A method of operating an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
receiving gait information of a user from a walking assistance apparatus of the user;
determining gait indices of the user based on the gait information;
determining a gait feature of the user based on the gait indices;
determining a gait group of the user based on the gait feature, the gait group having a walking speed range and the gait feature comprising a walking speed of the user that is included in the walking speed range of the gait group;
transmitting, to the walking assistance apparatus, a torque profile associated with the walking speed such that the walking assistance apparatus provides a torque to the user based on the torque profile;
monitoring a walking of the user and modifying the torque profile based on a result of the monitoring; and
transmitting, to the walking assistance apparatus, the modified torque profile such that the walking assistance apparatus provides a torque to the user based on the modified torque profile.
