3 is requested to the customer information management unit 6-2. When the sender is authenticated and receives the user ID, the user is audibly prompted to transmit the content ID, and the content ID is received. The received content ID and user ID are transmitted to the bookmark information management unit 6-4, and a bookmark registration request is issued.

In the bookmark information management section 6-4,
If it is determined that the content ID is not erroneously input, the line is disconnected. When the content ID is determined to be erroneously input and the alternative content ID candidate is returned, this is read aloud and the user is prompted to decide whether to adopt the candidate or to re-enter the candidate. When the candidate is adopted, the new content ID and the user ID are again added to the bookmark information management unit 6-4.
To send a bookmark registration request and disconnect the line.

If it is determined that the new content will be input again, the user is prompted to input the new content ID. When the customer information management unit 6-2 receives a customer authentication request using the caller number as a key from the general telephone network communication management unit 6-1, it searches the customer DB 6-3 for the user ID corresponding to the caller number. . The customer DB 6-3 has at least a user ID, a sender number, a simple terminal ID, and a password. It responds to the data reference request by the customer information management unit 6-2. An example of the data structure is shown in FIG.

A user ID and a content ID are added as new records to the bookmark DB 6-5 (see FIG. 5). When the content ID is erroneous input, the alternative content ID is received from the content ID management unit 6-8, and the erroneous input and the alternative candidate content ID are transmitted to the general telephone network communication management unit 6-1.

The bookmark DB 6-5 has at least a user ID and a content ID. The bookmark registration rib 6-4 responds to a bookmark registration and reference request. An example of the data structure is shown in FIG.

When the content ID management unit 6-8 receives the content ID and the content ID correctness determination request from the bookmark information temporary unit 6-4, the content ID management unit 6-8 determines whether or not the content ID exists in the content ID DB 6-9. To do. If it exists, it is transmitted to the bookmark information management unit 6-4 that it is not an erroneous input. If the content ID does not exist in the content ID DB 6-8, the content ID that is closest to the input numeric string of the content ID.
From the content ID DB 6-9. less than,
An example of the definition of the distance is shown.

The i-th number of an arbitrary content ID is x
_i , the i-th number of the input content ID is a _i ,
When l = min (the length of a sequence of arbitrary content IDs, the length of a sequence of input content IDs), the distance between the content IDs is defined as follows.

[Equation 1] The smaller the numerical value obtained here, the closer the distance is.

This distance is the sum of squares of the differences, taking a difference row by row from the beginning of the number sequence to the end of any number sequence. When the input content ID is 12345 and the comparison target content D is 987

[Equation 2] Becomes The smaller the numerical value obtained here, the closer the distance is.

Further, in the definition of the distance, when taking a difference by one digit, the difference between the arithmetic operations is not simply taken, but the physical position between the numeric keys is taken into consideration in consideration of the position of the simple Internet terminal device. There is also a method in which the distance is a difference of one digit. In this case, the distance between the two numeric keys as shown in FIG. 10 is shown by a triangular matrix. In arithmetic operation, the difference between 0 and 1 is 1, but if you consider the position of the numeric keypad, you can only press 3 from 0 to 1 in the upward direction and move 1 to the left. Is the distance between the numeric keys and is 4.

When the physical distance between the ten keys is set to be one digit at a time, the characteristic becomes closer to the property of substituting the degree of input error of the ten keys. The smaller the numerical value obtained here, the closer the distance is.

Further, the total sum of the values obtained by multiplying the number of appearances by the number of digits of the partial sequence included in the sequence of the content IDs that are candidates for all the partial sequences of the input sequence of content IDs is the distance. And This definition of distance includes many partial sequences that are similar to the correct sequence, such as when you add extra digits by mistake, or when you exclude unnecessary digits by mistake, but the digits are misaligned. Common partial sequences can be extracted. Further, since the common partial sequence becomes rarer as the number of digits increases, if a partial sequence having a large number of digits exists, it is considered to be close to the correct sequence.
Therefore, the number of appearances for each digit of the common partial sequence is
The sum is calculated by multiplying the number of digits.

If the number of appearances commonly existing in the partial sequence of the number of digits i = f _i , the distance is formulated as follows.

[Equation 3] For example, if you mistakenly input 1283 when you try to input the 3-digit content ID 123, all partial sequences of this sequence are (1, 2, 8, 3, 12, 28, 8).
3,128,283,1283).

In this case, the partial sequence common to the correct sequence is (1, 2, 3, 12). Generally, the probability that two-digit partial sequences are common is lower than that of one-digit partial sequences,

[Equation 4] , The number of appearances for each digit of the common partial sequence,
The number of digits is weighted by taking the sum obtained by multiplying the number of digits as the distance. The smaller the numerical value obtained here, the closer the distance is.

When the content ID groups existing in the content ID DB 6-9 are not continuous and redundant, the distances between the content IDs are large, and the distance information functions effectively. For each content ID, the distance from the input content ID is calculated, and the content with the smallest distance value is returned to the bookmark information management unit 6-4 as a content ID candidate.

The content ID DB 6-9 has at least a content ID. It corresponds to the reference request from the content ID management unit 6-8. An example of the data structure is shown in FIG.
Shown in.
