An example of information processing according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of information processing according to the embodiment. In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 (see FIG. 3) is located in another area AR21 (B area) based on the behavior information of the first user located in the predetermined area AR11 (A area). The case where prediction information regarding a user is generated will be described. In the example of FIG. 1, push notification is shown as an example of one form of content distribution, but content distribution may be in various forms. For example, the content delivery in the information processing system 1 is not limited to the push notification, and may be a so-called pull-type content delivery that requests the content from the terminal device 10. For example, the push notification may be information output on the terminal device 10 without depending on the operation of the terminal device 10 by the user. For example, the push notification may be to actively notify the user of predetermined information. In the following, an operation of displaying information about the push notification on the terminal device 10 by selecting or specifying the push notification may be an opening operation. Further, the size and shape of the area referred to here may be appropriately set according to the purpose of the processing or the like. For example, areas of various sizes such as “prefecture”, “city”, “ward”, and “town” may be appropriately set.

[Configuration of information processing system]
Prior to the description of FIG. 1, the configuration of the information processing system 1 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the information processing system according to the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the information processing system 1 includes a terminal device 10, an information providing device 50, and an information processing device 100. The terminal device 10, the information providing device 50, and the information processing device 100 are communicably connected via a predetermined network N by wire or wirelessly. The information processing system 1 illustrated in FIG. 2 may include a plurality of terminal devices 10, a plurality of information providing devices 50, and a plurality of information processing devices 100.

  The terminal device 10 is an information processing device used by a user. The terminal device 10 receives various operations by the user. In the following, the terminal device 10 may be referred to as a user. That is, in the following, a user can be read as the terminal device 10. The terminal device 10 described above is realized by, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a notebook PC (Personal Computer), a desktop PC, a mobile phone, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), or the like. FIG. 1 shows a case where the terminal device 10 is a smartphone.

  The terminal device 10 has a function such as a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, and can detect and acquire a position. For example, the terminal device 10 transmits action information such as position information to the information processing device 100. Note that the terminal device 10 is not limited to the above, and may have various sensors. For example, the terminal device 10 acquires biological information such as a voice sensor (microphone), an acceleration sensor, a gyro sensor, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, an illuminance sensor, a pressure sensor, a proximity sensor, odor, sweat, heartbeat, pulse, brain wave, and the like. May be provided. Then, the terminal device 10 may transmit various sensor information detected by various sensors to the information processing device 100. For example, the terminal device 10 may detect the utterance information (sensor information) of the user with the voice sensor, and transmit the detected utterance information (sensor information) to the information processing device 100.

  For example, the terminal device 10 may have various functions such as a temperature sensor and an atmospheric pressure sensor, and may be capable of detecting and acquiring peripheral information such as a temperature and an atmospheric pressure where the user is located. In addition, the terminal device 10 may have various functions such as a heart rate sensor and may be capable of detecting and acquiring biological information of the user. For example, a user using the terminal device 10 may be able to acquire the user's own biological information by using the terminal device 10 by wearing a wearable device that can communicate with the terminal device 10. For example, a user who uses the terminal device 10 wears a wristband-type wearable device that can communicate with the terminal device 10, so that the terminal device 10 obtains information on the user's own heartbeat (pulse) by the terminal device 10. It may be possible.

  The context information related to the distribution of the content (hereinafter, also simply referred to as “context information”) includes information indicating various contexts related to the distribution of the content. For example, the context information includes information indicating the context of the user to which the content is to be distributed and information indicating the context of the location where the user is located. For example, the context information may include information on a user attribute. For example, the context information may include information indicating what kind of user the user is. For example, the context information may include information about various users, such as age, profile, interest, and the like. For example, the context information may include information on the context of time or place. For example, the context information may include information indicating the situation at the time or place when the push notification is performed. For example, the context information may include information about a time zone. For example, the context information may include information indicating which of the 24 time zones the time zone corresponds to from 0 to 23:00. For example, the context information includes four time zones of morning (4-10 o'clock, etc.), daytime (10-16 o'clock, etc.), night (16-22 o'clock, etc.), and midnight (22-4 o'clock, etc.). May be included. For example, the context information may include information on a POI (Point of Interest) indicating a facility name such as a store or a stadium corresponding to the position of the user. For example, the context information includes various times and places such as a stay (residence) time at which the user is located at the place, attributes of the place (commercial and residential areas, etc.) and attributes of the time (morning and night, etc.). Information may be included.

  For example, the context information may include information about the context of the environment. For example, the context information may include information indicating what environment is around the user when the push notification is performed. For example, the context information may include various information (peripheral information) such as weather, user's emotion (mood), temperature, and atmospheric pressure. For example, the context information may include information indicating whether the weather corresponds to sunny, cloudy, rain, or snow. For example, the context information may include information indicating whether the user's mood is a positive emotion or a negative emotion. For example, the context information may include information indicating whether the user's mood is a positive emotion such as joy or pleasure or a negative emotion such as anger or sadness.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 estimates a user's emotion (mood) based on various information about the user. For example, the information processing device 100 estimates the user's emotion based on the user's behavior information. The information processing device 100 estimates a user's emotion by appropriately using various conventional techniques. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 estimates a user's emotion using various input information input by the user, such as content browsed by the user (browse content) and a query used by the user for a search. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the emotion of the user by appropriately analyzing character information and input information in the browsed content using various conventional techniques such as syntax analysis. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 stores a list of keywords (emotion keyword list) for various emotions in the storage unit 120 (see FIG. 3), and the keyword included in the character information or input information in the browsed content is most relevant. The emotion to do may be estimated as the emotion of the user. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 uses the emotion keyword list of the keyword corresponding to each of the positive emotion and the negative emotion to include the positive emotion and the negative emotion in the text information and the input information in the browsed content. The emotion of the keyword with more keywords may be estimated as the emotion of the user. Further, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the user's emotion using the character information obtained by converting the utterance of the user and the above-described emotion keyword list.

  For example, the information processing device 100 estimates a user's emotion based on sensor information detected by a terminal device used by the user. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the user's emotion based on sensor information on the user's stride, amplitude, and the like. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the emotion of the user using biological information such as the heart rate and blood pressure of the user, image information obtained by imaging the face of the user, and the like. Note that the above is an example, and the information processing apparatus 100 may use any method as long as the user's emotion can be estimated. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the emotion of the user based on the tone (tone of sound) of the utterance of the user. For example, when the tone (tone of sound) of the utterance of the user is high, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the emotion of the user as a positive emotion of pleasure or enjoyment. For example, when the tone (tone of sound) of the user's utterance is weak, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the user's emotion as a negative emotion of anger or sadness. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the emotion of the user as a positive emotion of pleasure or enjoyment when the number or the amount of the products purchased by the user is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may estimate the emotion of the user as a negative emotion of anger or sadness when the number or the amount of the products purchased by the user is less than a predetermined threshold.

  For example, the context information may include information indicating whether the temperature corresponds to high, medium, or low. For example, the context information includes information indicating whether the temperature corresponds to the high (+ 5 ° C. or more), the medium (less than ± 5 ° C.), or the low (−5 ° C. or less) with respect to the average temperature. May be included. For example, the context information may include information indicating whether the atmospheric pressure corresponds to high, medium, or low. For example, in the context information, the air pressure is higher (more than +1 hPa), medium (less than ± 1 hPa), lower (less than -1 hPa) or less than the air pressure just before (for example, 10 minutes before or 1 hour before). ) May be included. For example, the context information may include information on the operation content. For example, the context information may include various information such as information indicating what kind of operation (push notification), information indicating a category of notification content, and information indicating whether or not an applicator. Note that the above is only an example, and the context information is not limited to the above and may include various information.

  For example, the context information may include information on the status of the user or the terminal device 10 or the status of the user estimated based on the environment (background) of the user or the terminal device 10. Also, the context information includes the content of the content provided to the user, the content of the content to which the user has responded, the attribute of the user, the current position of the user, the current time, the physical environment in which the user is placed, and the society in which the user is placed. Various information such as the environment, the exercise state of the user, and the estimated emotion of the user may be included. Further, the context information may include various information such as the situation of the user or the terminal device 10 or the user's psychological state estimated based on the environment (background) of the user or the terminal device 10.

  The information providing device 50 is an information processing device having various types of open data. For example, the information providing device 50 provides open data. The information providing device 50 is an information processing device that provides open data, which is data that is permitted to be widely opened to the user, to the information processing device 100. For example, the information providing apparatus 50 may be an information processing apparatus that is managed by each local government and provides data held by the local government to the outside as open data. Further, for example, the information providing device 50 may be various information processing devices such as a server managed by the Meteorological Agency. The information providing apparatus 50 is not limited to the above, as long as the data (information) is permitted to be used. Various open data such as disaster mitigation information, procurement information, and statistical information may be provided.

  For example, the information providing apparatus 50 provides the open data of the A area, the B area, and the like to the information processing apparatus 100. For example, the information providing device 50 provides the information processing device 100 with environmental information regarding the A area, the B area, and the like. For example, the information providing device 50 provides the information processing device 100 with various types of environmental information such as traffic information on the area A. For example, the information providing device 50 provides the information processing device 100 with various types of environmental information such as traffic information on the B area and information on the population structure. As described above, the environment information may include various information such as road information and weather information around the user.

  The information processing apparatus 100 is an information processing apparatus that generates prediction information for predicting profitability in content distribution based on context information related to content distribution. The information processing device 100 is a generation device that generates prediction information for predicting profitability in content distribution. Here, the profitability in the distribution of the content may be various as long as the distribution of the content may bring a profit (profit) to a predetermined entity. Profitability in content distribution may be profitability of any entity as long as the entity is related to content distribution. For example, the profitability in the distribution of the content may indicate the profit obtained by the provider of the product when the user purchases the product related to the distributed content. For example, it is presumed that the longer a user browses content, the higher the possibility that an action that brings profit (profit) to a predetermined entity such as the user's purchase related to the content is likely to occur. May indicate how long the user views the distributed content. In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 generates, as prediction information for predicting profitability in content distribution, information indicating how much the distributed content is viewed by a user.

  The information processing apparatus 100 is different from the predetermined area based on operation information indicating whether or not the user has performed a predetermined operation on the content notified by push in the terminal device 10 used by the user located in the predetermined area. This is an information processing apparatus that generates prediction information for predicting whether or not a user has performed a predetermined operation on the content when the content is pushed to the terminal device 10 used by a user located in the area of the user. For example, the information processing device 100 acquires various information such as behavior information including position information from the terminal device 10. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires various information such as open data from the information providing apparatus 50.

  Hereinafter, an example of information processing by the information processing apparatus 100 (see FIG. 3) will be described with reference to FIG. First, the map information MP1 shown in FIG. 1 will be briefly described. Map information MP1 shown in FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically showing an area or the like included in a predetermined range. For example, the map information MP1 is a diagram for schematically illustrating a status of a push notification to the terminal device 10 to the A area or the B area.

  In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires information indicating that a predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal device 10 used by a certain user and opened by the user (step S1-1). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 indicates that a predetermined content (for example, the content CT11) is pushed to the terminal device 10 used by the user U1 (see FIG. 4) located in the area A and is opened by the user U1. Get information. As described above, when “user U * (* is an arbitrary numerical value)” is described, it indicates that the user is a user identified by the user ID “U *”. For example, when "user U1" is described, the user is a user identified by the user ID "U1".

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires information indicating that a predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal device 10 used by the user U1 located in the partial area LC1-1 of the area A and opened by the user U1. . Note that the partial area LC1-1 may be an area within a predetermined range in the A area. The partial area LC1-1 may be one piece of position information representing the area within the partial area LC1-1. For example, the partial area LC1-1 may be position information of the center within the range of the partial area LC1-1. Further, the partial area LC1-1 may be a combination of positional information of a center within the range of the partial area LC1-1 and information indicating a range (for example, within 100 m) from the center. Further, the partial area LC1-1 may be a list of positions within the range of the partial area LC1-1. In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires information indicating that the content (the content CT11) notified in step S1-1 has been viewed by the user for the time RTM1 after opening (step S2). ). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may acquire information indicating that the content notified in step S1-1 has been displayed on the user terminal device 10 for the time RTM1 after opening.

  The information processing apparatus 100 is not limited to the content distributed to the user, and may use information indicating the browsing time of the entire content group having a predetermined relationship with the content after the content distribution. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 uses not only the content CT11 delivered to the user U1 but also the information indicating the browsing time of the user U1 of the entire content group having a predetermined association with the content CT11 after the delivery of the content CT11. You may. For example, after distributing the content CT11 to the user U1, the information processing apparatus 100 may use information indicating the browsing time of the user U1 of the entire content group of the site (site STX) to which the content CT11 belongs. That is, the information processing apparatus 100 may set the time (profitability) at which the user browsed the group of contents related to the site STX after the distribution of the contents related to the site STX to the user as the target of the generation of the prediction information. In this case, for example, after the content related to the site STX is distributed to the user, the information processing apparatus 100 determines the profit (profitability) obtained by the business operator that operates the site STX due to the user's behavior as the target of the generation of the prediction information. It may be.

  For example, the information processing device 100 stores information acquired from the terminal device 10 in the behavior information storage unit 123 (see FIG. 5). Note that the provision of the content to the terminal device 10 may be performed by the information processing device 100 or another device as long as the information used by the information processing device 100 to generate the prediction information can be obtained. . For example, the content may be provided to the terminal device 10 by any device as long as the information used by the information processing device 100 to generate the prediction information can be acquired.

  In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 obtains information indicating that a predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal apparatus 10 used by a certain user and that the content has not been opened by the user (step S1-2). . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives a push notification of a predetermined content to the terminal device 10 used by the user U2 (see FIG. 4) located in the area A, and acquires information indicating that the content has not been opened by the user U2. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 obtains information indicating that predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal device 10 used by the user U2 located in the partial area LC1-2 of the A area and has not been opened by the user U2. I do.

  In addition, in the example of FIG. 1, for simplicity of explanation, user operations related to two push notifications in steps S1-1 and S1-2 are illustrated. It is assumed that a push notification (for example, 10 million times) is issued, and the information processing apparatus 100 acquires action information such as operation information indicating whether or not the user has performed an opening operation in response to the notification. Steps S1-1 and S1-2 are for describing the processing, and any of steps S1-1 and S1-2 may be performed first, and steps S1-1 and S1-2 may be performed first. May be performed a plurality of times. Hereinafter, when steps S1-1 and S1-2 are described without distinction, they are collectively referred to as step S1.

  Further, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model used for generating prediction information based on the user's action information on the push notification acquired in step S1 (step S3). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model for predicting profitability in content distribution based on behavior information of the first user in the area A. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model that predicts profitability in content distribution based on context information of the first user in the area A. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model that predicts how much the distributed content is opened and viewed based on the context information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model for predicting profitability in a push notification based on various information stored in the open data storage unit 121, the user information storage unit 122, the behavior information storage unit 123, and the like.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model based on the environment information of the area A stored in the open data storage unit 121. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model based on the user information of the user located in the area A stored in the user information storage unit 122. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model based on the behavior information of the user located in the area A stored in the behavior information storage unit 123. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model in consideration of information on the content that has been pushed to the user. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model including a feature amount having a category of the content that has been pushed to the user as an element.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model for predicting profitability in a push notification using information in the case where the content for which the push notification was opened is opened as correct answer information (correct example). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 pushes various context information such as user information of the user, user location information, user action information, and user environment information when the content for which the push notification was opened is opened as correct information. A model for predicting profitability in notifications may be generated. For example, when the user U1 opens the content that has been pushed and notified in the partial area LC1-1, the information processing apparatus 100 determines the user information of the user U1, the position information of the user U1, the behavior information of the user U1, and the environment information of the user U1. For example, a model for predicting profitability in push notification may be generated using various types of context information as the correct answer information.

  In the example of FIG. 1, when the content is opened, the information processing apparatus 100 distributes each of the plurality of levels indicating profitability based on the viewing time of the content of the user after the content is opened. Determine the level of profitability.

  For example, when the browsing time of the content of the user is less than 5 seconds, the information processing apparatus 100 performs prediction by learning to output the score “1” with the level of profitability of the distribution as the level LV1. Generate a model. For example, when the time RTM1 that is the viewing time of the user U1 illustrated in FIG. 1 is a predetermined time less than 5 seconds (for example, 3 seconds), the context information in the distribution to the user U1 is input. In this case, a model to be predicted is generated by learning to output a score “1”.

  Further, for example, when the browsing time of the content of the user is 5 seconds or more and less than 1 minute, the information processing apparatus 100 learns to output the score “2” with the level of profitability of the distribution as the level LV2. Thus, a model to be predicted is generated. For example, when the time RTM1, which is the browsing time of the user U1 shown in FIG. When input, a model to predict is generated by learning to output a score “2”.

  Further, for example, when the browsing time of the content of the user is 1 minute or more and less than 5 minutes, the information processing apparatus 100 learns to output the score “3” with the profitability level of the distribution as the level LV3. Thus, a model to be predicted is generated. For example, when the time RTM1 that is the browsing time of the user U1 illustrated in FIG. 1 is a predetermined time (for example, 2 minutes) of 1 minute or more and less than 5 minutes, the information processing apparatus 100 determines that the context information in the distribution to the user U1 is When input, a predictive model may be generated by learning to output a score “3”. Note that the above is an example, and the information processing apparatus 100 may use various levels, and the information processing apparatus 100 may generate models for predicting various profitability in addition to browsing time.

  Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model for predicting profitability in a push notification using information in the case where the content of the push notification is not opened as incorrect answer information (negative example). For example, if the user has not performed the opening operation of the content, the information processing apparatus 100 learns to output the score “0” with the level of profitability of the distribution as the level LV0, thereby generating a model that predicts the model. Generate. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a predictive model by learning to output a score “0” when context information in a case where the push-notified content has not been opened is input. Good.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 uses various context information such as user information of the user, user's location information, user's behavior information, and user's environment information when the push-notified content is not opened as incorrect information. , A model for predicting profitability in push notification may be generated. For example, when the user U2 does not open the content notified of the push notification in the partial area LC1-2, the information processing apparatus 100 determines the user information of the user U2, the position information of the user U2, the behavior information of the user U2, and the user U2. A model for predicting profitability in push notification may be generated using various context information such as environmental information as incorrect information.

  In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 generates model information of the model M1 as shown in the model information MD. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model M1 as shown in the model information storage unit 125 (see FIG. 7).

  In the model M1 shown in the model information storage unit 125 in FIG. 7, each weight (value) is stored in association with each feature (feature) such as “feature # 1” to “feature # 3”. . For example, in the example shown in FIG. 7, the model information relating to the model M1 has a feature amount # 1 with a weight of “0.5”, a feature amount # 2 with a weight of “−0.1”, and a feature amount # 3 with a weight of “−0.1”. "0.2" or the like. The generation of each model may be performed by appropriately using various conventional techniques related to machine learning. For example, the generation of the model may be performed using a technology related to machine learning of supervised learning such as SVM (Support Vector Machine). Further, for example, the generation of the model may be performed using a technology related to machine learning of unsupervised learning. For example, the generation of the model may be performed using a technique of deep learning (deep learning). For example, the model may be generated by appropriately using various deep learning techniques such as DNN (Deep Neural Network), RNN (Recurrent Neural Network), and CNN (Convolutional Neural Network). Note that the description regarding the generation of the model is an example, and the generation of the model may be performed by a learning method appropriately selected according to information that can be obtained. Further, the generation of the model may be performed using a Kronecker product obtained by combining the above context information.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives a context information regarding content distribution as an input, and generates a model M1 that outputs a score based on the input. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information and generates a model M1 that outputs a score indicating profitability in distribution of the content corresponding to the input context information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information and generates a model M1 that outputs a score indicating a level of profitability in distribution of the content corresponding to the input context information.

  Then, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on the generated model M1. First, the information processing apparatus 100 determines a user (target user) whose profitability is to be predicted (step S4). In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 determines the user U3 located in the B area as the target user. The information processing apparatus 100 determines the user U3, which is the second user, located in the area B, which is another area other than the area A, as the target user.

  Then, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires context information CINF3 including various information such as user information of the user U3 who is the target user and environment information corresponding to the position (position LC2-3) of the user U3 (step S5). . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 includes the user information of the user U3 including the user information as shown in the user information storage unit 122 (see FIG. 4) and the behavior information of the user as shown in the behavior information storage unit 123 (see FIG. 5). To get. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may acquire various information such as environment information of the B area from the open data storage unit 121 (see FIG. 3).

  In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates a score indicating profitability when the content is distributed to the user U3 located in the area B by the processing illustrated in the processing group PS1. When delivering the content to the user U3 located in the area B, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates a score indicating how much the user U3 views the content. The information processing apparatus 100 inputs the context information CINF3 to the model M1 (Step S6-1). Specifically, the information processing apparatus 100 inputs context information CINF3 including user information of the user U3, environment information corresponding to the position of the user U3 (position LC2-3), and the like to the model M1. The model M1 to which the context information CINF3 has been input outputs a score (step S6-2). In the example of FIG. 1, the model M1 to which the context information CINF3 has been input outputs a score “1.5” as shown by the score SC1-1.

  Then, based on the score output by the model M1, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information indicating profitability when the content is distributed to the user U3 located in the area B (step S7). In the example of FIG. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information using the profitability level list CTB. The information processing apparatus 100 may acquire information corresponding to the profitability level list CTB from the generation information storage unit 127 (see FIG. 9).

  “Score (range)” in the profitability level list CTB indicates the range of the score output by the model corresponding to each level. “Open probability (%)” in the profitability level list CTB indicates the open probability corresponding to the score. For example, “opening probability (%)” in the profitability level list CTB indicates the probability that the user who has been input to the model opens the content. “Profitability (level)” in the profitability level list CTB indicates the profitability corresponding to each score range. In the profitability level list CTB, the levels LV0 to LV3 indicated by “profitability (level)” correspond to the level in which the level LV0 has the lowest profitability, and are in the order of the level LV0, the level LV1, the level LV2, and the level LV3. Indicates that it will grow.

  The example shown in FIG. 1 indicates that if the score output by the model is 0 or less, the opening probability is predicted to be 0%. If the score output by the model is 0 or less, the profitability is at level LV0. When the score output by the model is greater than 0 and equal to or less than 1, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 0 to 100%. For example, if the score output by the model is 0.5, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 50%. When the score output by the model is greater than 0 and equal to or less than 1, it indicates that the profitability is at the level LV1.

  If the score output by the model is greater than 1 and equal to or less than 2, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 100%. When the score output by the model is greater than 1 and equal to or less than 2, it indicates that the profitability is at the level LV2. If the score output by the model is greater than 2 and equal to or less than 3, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 100%. When the score output by the model is greater than 2 and equal to or less than 3, it indicates that the profitability is level LV3.

  Using the score “1.5” output by the model M1 and the profitability level list CTB, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information indicating profitability when the content is distributed to the user U3 located in the B area. I do. The information processing device 100 determines the level of profitability when the content is distributed to the user U3 by comparing the score “1.5” with each score (range) in the profitability level list CTB. Since the score “1.5” is included in the score (range) of “1 to 2” in the profitability level list CTB, the information processing apparatus 100 sets the open probability when the content is distributed to the user U3 to 100%. Is determined. Further, since the score “1.5” is included in the score (range) of “1 to 2” in the profitability level list CTB, the information processing apparatus 100 determines the profitability when the content is distributed to the user U3. The level is determined to be level LV2.

  Thereby, the information processing apparatus 100 generates the prediction information FINF3 when the content is distributed to the user U3 located in the area B. In the example of FIG. 1, when the information processing device 100 distributes the content to the user U3 located at the position LC2-3 in the B area, the opening probability is 100% and the profitability level is the level LV2. Is generated.

  As described above, by using the generated model M1, the information processing apparatus 100 can appropriately generate prediction information for predicting profitability in content distribution. Specifically, the information processing apparatus 100 appropriately uses the model M1 generated based on the information of the first user in the A area to set the user U3, which is the second user in the B area different from the A area, as the target user. It is possible to generate prediction information for predicting profitability in content distribution. Thereby, the information processing apparatus 100 can visualize a user who is likely to contribute to improving profitability. When the content is displayed without the user's opening operation as in the case of pull-type content distribution, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information indicating only the level of profitability based on the score output by the model M1. May be.

[1-1. Example of information generation)
FIG. 1 is an example, and the information processing apparatus 100 is not limited to the above, and may generate various types of information. This will be described below with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of information processing according to the embodiment. In FIG. 11, a description of the same points as in FIG. 1 may be appropriately omitted. In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 (see FIG. 3) pushes to another area AR21 (B area) based on action information such as user operation information related to a push notification in a predetermined area AR11 (A area). The case where prediction information regarding notification is generated will be described. In the example of FIG. 11, a push notification is shown as an example of one mode of content distribution, but content distribution may be in various modes. For example, the content delivery in the information processing system 1 is not limited to the push notification, and may be a so-called pull-type content delivery that requests the content from the terminal device 10.

  For example, in the example of FIG. 11, distribution information of the opening ratio of push notifications in the B area is accurately generated because action information such as actual user operation information regarding push notifications in the B area is insufficient. Indicates when it is difficult. For example, the push notification may be information output on the terminal device 10 without depending on the operation of the terminal device 10 by the user. For example, the push notification may be to actively notify the user of predetermined information. The unsealing rate here indicates, for example, the rate at which the user has performed the unsealing operation on the push notification displayed on the terminal device 10. Further, the opening operation may be a predetermined operation of the user such as selection or designation for the push notification. For example, the opening operation may be a predetermined operation of a user who causes the terminal device 10 to display information regarding the push notification. For example, in the example of FIG. 11, it is assumed that the number of notifications in the B area is small as shown in step S10. Step S10 is for illustrating that the number of notifications of the B area is small, and may not be included in the processing procedure.

  First, the map information MP1-1 to MP1-3 shown in FIG. 11 will be briefly described. Map information MP1-1 to MP1-3 shown in FIG. 11 are diagrams schematically showing areas and the like included in a predetermined range. For example, the map information MP1-1 is a diagram for schematically illustrating a status of a push notification to the terminal device 10 to the A area or the B area. Further, for example, the map information MP1-2 is a diagram for schematically showing distribution information of the opening rate of the push notification to the terminal device 10 in the A area. Further, for example, the map information MP1-3 is a diagram for schematically showing prediction information of the opening rate of the push notification to the terminal device 10 in the B area. The ranges (areas) shown in the map information MP1-1 to MP1-3 are the same area. In the following, the map information MP1-1 to MP1-3 will be referred to as map information MP1 when described without any particular distinction.

  In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires information indicating that a predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal device 10 used by a certain user and opened by the user (step S11-1). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 indicates that a predetermined content (for example, the content CT11) is pushed to the terminal device 10 used by the user U1 (see FIG. 4) located in the area A and is opened by the user U1. Get information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires information indicating that a predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal device 10 used by the user U1 located in the partial area LC1-1 of the area A and opened by the user U1. . Note that the partial area LC1-1 may be an area within a predetermined range in the A area. Further, in the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 may acquire information indicating that the content (the content CT11) notified in step S11-1 has been viewed by the user for the time RTM1 after opening. . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may acquire information indicating that the content notified in step S11-1 has been displayed on the user terminal device 10 for the time RTM1 after opening.

  For example, the information processing device 100 stores information acquired from the terminal device 10 in the behavior information storage unit 123 (see FIG. 5). Note that the provision of the content to the terminal device 10 may be performed by the information processing device 100 or another device as long as the information used by the information processing device 100 to generate the prediction information can be obtained. . For example, the content may be provided to the terminal device 10 by any device as long as the information used by the information processing device 100 to generate the prediction information can be acquired.

  In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires information indicating that a predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal apparatus 10 used by a certain user and has not been opened by the user (step S11-2). . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives a push notification of a predetermined content to the terminal device 10 used by the user U2 (see FIG. 4) located in the area A, and acquires information indicating that the content has not been opened by the user U2. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 obtains information indicating that predetermined content has been pushed to the terminal device 10 used by the user U2 located in the partial area LC1-2 of the A area and has not been opened by the user U2. I do.

  Note that, in the example of FIG. 11, for simplicity of explanation, user operations related to two push notifications in steps S11-1 and S11-2 are illustrated. It is assumed that a push notification (for example, 10 million times) is issued, and the information processing apparatus 100 acquires action information such as operation information indicating whether or not the user has performed an opening operation in response to the notification. Steps S11-1 and S11-2 are for explaining the processing, and any one of steps S11-1 and S11-2 may be performed first. May be performed a plurality of times. Hereinafter, when steps S11-1 and S11-2 are described without distinction, they are collectively referred to as step S11.

  Then, the information processing apparatus 100 generates distribution information based on action information such as operation information relating to the push notification (step S12). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates distribution information by calculating a content opening rate based on operation information regarding push notification. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 stores the distribution information generated based on the operation information acquired in step S11 in the distribution information storage unit 124 (see FIG. 6). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 stores the distribution information in which the area A is the aggregation target area in the distribution information storage unit 124.

  “Aggregation target area” shown in the distribution information storage unit 124 in FIG. 6 indicates an area from which distribution information is collected. “Distribution information” shown in the distribution information storage unit 124 in FIG. 6 indicates distribution information collected for the aggregation target area. “Partial area” shown in the distribution information storage unit 124 in FIG. 6 indicates a partial area in the aggregation target area. “Number of pushes” shown in the distribution information storage unit 124 in FIG. 6 indicates the number of times a push notification has been made to the user located in the corresponding partial area. “Number of times of opening” shown in the distribution information storage unit 124 in FIG. 6 indicates the number of times that the user located in the corresponding partial area has opened the push notification. The “opening rate (%)” indicates the rate at which the user located in the corresponding partial area has opened the push notification (= opening times / pushing times × 100). For example, the “opening rate (%)” takes a value of 0 to 100 (%). For example, the information processing device 100 calculates an opening rate.

  For example, in the example illustrated in the distribution information storage unit 124 in FIG. 6, the distribution information for the aggregation target area “A area” is “10000 (times)” for the user located in the partial area LC1-1 in the A area. Indicates that a push notification has been made. Further, for example, it indicates that the user located in the partial area LC1-1 has opened the push notification “2000 (times)”. Further, for example, the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC1-1 is “20 (%)” because the notification was opened 2,000 times out of 10,000 notifications. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC1-1 as “20% (= 2000/10000 * 100)”.

  In addition, the information processing apparatus 100 may calculate the opening rate based on various information without being limited to the above. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may calculate the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC1-1 using the score itself output by the model M11. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates the average value of the scores output by the model M11 to which the context information of the content distribution in the partial area LC1-1 has been input as the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC1-1. Is also good. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates the open rate of the user located in the partial area LC1-1 by dividing the total value of the scores output by the model M11 for the content distribution in the partial area LC1-1 by the number of outputs. May be. For example, in the information processing apparatus 100, the total value of the scores output by the model M11 regarding the content distribution in the partial area LC1-1 is “45 (= 0.2 + 0.5 +...)”, And the number of outputs is “100”. In some cases, the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC1-1 may be calculated as “45% (= 45/100 * 100)”.

  In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 generates distribution information DM11 in which the area A is the aggregation target area. The distribution information DM11 shown in the area A of the map information MP1-2 in FIG. 11 indicates the level of the opening rate in each partial area in a display form like a heat map. In the example of FIG. 11, the higher the hatched area, the higher the opening rate. In the example of FIG. 11, the distribution information DM11 indicates that the opening rate is high in the partial area LC1-1 and the like in the A area. In the example of FIG. 11, the distribution information DM11 indicates that the opening rate is low in the partial area LC1-2 in the A area. That is, in the area A, the opening rate near the center is high, and the opening rate decreases as the distance from the center increases.

  In addition, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model used for generating prediction information based on action information such as operation information on the push notification acquired in step S11 (step S13). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model for predicting whether to open the push notification based on behavior information such as operation information in the area A. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model that predicts profitability in content distribution based on context information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model that predicts whether the distributed content will be opened based on the context information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model that predicts whether to open the push notification based on various information stored in the open data storage unit 121, the user information storage unit 122, the behavior information storage unit 123, and the like. . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a model based on the environment information of the area A stored in the open data storage unit 121. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model based on the user information of the user located in the area A stored in the user information storage unit 122. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model based on the behavior information of the user located in the area A stored in the behavior information storage unit 123. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model in consideration of information on the content that has been pushed to the user.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model that predicts whether or not the push notification will be opened, using the information when the content for which the push notification has been opened as the correct answer information (correct example). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate the model M11 by learning to output a score “1” when context information is input when the content for which the push notification has been made is opened. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 pushes various context information such as user information of the user, user location information, user action information, and user environment information when the content for which the push notification was opened is opened as correct information. A model for predicting whether to open the notification may be generated. For example, when the user U1 opens the content that has been pushed and notified in the partial area LC1-1, the information processing apparatus 100 determines the user information of the user U1, the position information of the user U1, the behavior information of the user U1, and the environment information of the user U1. A model for predicting whether or not to open the push notification may be generated by using various context information such as the correct answer information.

  In addition, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model for predicting whether or not to open the push notification, using information when the content for which the push notification has not been opened as incorrect information (negative example). . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate the model M11 by learning to output a score “0” when context information is input when the push-notified content is not opened. . For example, the information processing apparatus 100 uses various context information such as user information of the user, user's location information, user's behavior information, and user's environment information when the push-notified content is not opened as incorrect information. Alternatively, a model for predicting whether to open the push notification may be generated. For example, when the user U2 does not open the content notified by the push notification in the partial area LC1-2, the information processing apparatus 100 determines that the user information of the user U2, the position information of the user U2, the behavior information of the user U2, and the user U2. A model for predicting whether or not to open the push notification may be generated using various context information such as environmental information as incorrect information.

  In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing device 100 generates model information of the model M11 as shown in the model information MD. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model M11 as shown in the model information storage unit 125 (see FIG. 7). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives a context information regarding content distribution as an input, and generates a model M11 that outputs a score based on the input. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information and generates a model M11 that outputs a score indicating a probability that the user will perform a predetermined action in distributing the content corresponding to the input context information. In this case, the information processing apparatus 100 may use the score output by the model M11 as a value indicating the probability of the user performing a predetermined action. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may use the score output by the model M11 as a value indicating the probability of the user opening the content. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information and generates a model M11 that outputs a score indicating the possibility of the user performing a predetermined action in delivering the content corresponding to the input context information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information and generates a model M11 that outputs a score indicating a degree (level) at which the user performs a predetermined action in distributing the content corresponding to the input context information.

  For example, if the score output by the model M11 to which context information such as user information and surrounding environment where the user is located is input is “0.7”, the information processing apparatus 100 opens the push notification. May be determined to be “70% (= 0.7 * 100)”. For example, the information processing device 100 may associate the score in the range of 0 to 1 output by the model M11 with 0% to 100%. For example, when the score output by the model M11 to which the context information has been input is “0”, the information processing apparatus 100 has a probability that the user will open the push notification “0% (= 0 * 100)”. May be determined. For example, when the score output by the model M11 to which the context information has been input is “1”, the information processing apparatus 100 has a probability that the user will open the push notification “100% (= 1 * 100)”. May be determined.

  Further, for example, when the model M11 outputs a value less than 0, that is, a negative score, the information processing apparatus 100 may associate the negative score with 0%. For example, when the score output by the model M11 to which the context information is input is “−1”, the information processing apparatus 100 determines that the probability that the user will open the push notification is “0%”. Good. In this case, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates the model M11 by learning to output a score of 0 or less when context information is input when the push-notified content is not opened. You may.

  Further, for example, when the model M11 outputs a score having a value greater than 1, the information processing apparatus 100 may associate a score having a value greater than 1 with 100%. For example, when the score output by the model M11 to which the context information has been input is “3”, the information processing apparatus 100 may determine that the probability that the user will open the push notification is “100%”. . As described above, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information and generates the model M11 that outputs a score indicating the probability (degree) of the user performing a predetermined action in the distribution of the content corresponding to the input context information. Is also good. In this case, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates the model M11 by learning so as to output one or more scores when context information in the case where the push-notified content is opened is input. Is also good. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate the model M11 by learning to output one or more scores when context information is input according to the profit from the opened content.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives context information such as user information and surrounding environment information where the user is located as an input, and generates a model M11 that outputs a score based on the input. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives the context information as input and generates a model M11 that outputs a score based on the input. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 receives context information such as user information and environment information around the user as an input, and outputs a score based on the input by the model M11 as a predetermined threshold (for example, “0.5 , Etc.), the user may be determined to open the content to be pushed. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may store the generated model M11 in the model information storage unit 125 (see FIG. 7). Note that the model M11 shown in FIG. 11 may be the same model as the model M1 shown in FIG.

  The generation of each model may be performed by appropriately using various conventional techniques related to machine learning. For example, the generation of the model may be performed using a technology related to machine learning of supervised learning such as SVM (Support Vector Machine). Further, for example, the generation of the model may be performed using a technology related to machine learning of unsupervised learning. For example, the generation of the model may be performed using a technique of deep learning (deep learning). For example, the model may be generated by appropriately using various deep learning techniques such as DNN (Deep Neural Network), RNN (Recurrent Neural Network), and CNN (Convolutional Neural Network). Note that the description regarding the generation of the model is an example, and the generation of the model may be performed by a learning method appropriately selected according to information that can be obtained. Further, the generation of the model may be performed using a Kronecker product obtained by combining the above context information.

  Then, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on the generated model M11 (Step S14). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information by calculating a content opening rate based on the generated model M11. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information regarding the B area based on the model M11 and various information regarding the B area which is the prediction target area.

  The information processing device 100 acquires the open data of the prediction target area. In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires the environment information ED of the B area. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may acquire various information such as environment information of the B area from the open data storage unit 121 (see FIG. 3).

  Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires user information located in the prediction target area. In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires the user information UD of the B area. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 acquires user information as shown in the user information storage unit 122 (see FIG. 4) and user behavior information as shown in the behavior information storage unit 123 (see FIG. 5).

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate B area prediction information for a user whose position information stored in the user information storage unit 122 (see FIG. 4) corresponds to the B area. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information of the B area for the user U3 whose position information is the partial area LC2-1 in the B area, the user U4 that is the partial area LC2-2 in the B area, and the like. May be.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may predict whether the user U3 will open the push notification by inputting the user information of the user U3 or the context information such as the environment information of the user U3 into the model M11. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 inputs various information including the position information and the action information of the user U3 to the model M11, and when the model M11 outputs a score less than a predetermined threshold, the user U3 opens the push notification. You may decide not to do so. In this case, the information processing apparatus 100 stores information indicating that the user U3 does not open the push notification in the storage unit 120 (see FIG. 3), or determines that the push notification is performed once in the partial area LC2-1. The indicated information may be stored in the prediction information storage unit 126 (see FIG. 8).

  Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may predict whether the user U4 will open the push notification by inputting user information of the user U4 and context information such as environment information of the user U4 into the model M11. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 inputs various information including the position information and the action information of the user U4 to the model M11, and when the model M11 outputs a score equal to or more than a predetermined threshold, the user U4 opens the push notification. Then, it may be determined. In this case, the information processing apparatus 100 stores information indicating that the user U4 opens the push notification in the storage unit 120, or indicates that the push notification is performed once in the partial area LC2-2 and is opened. The information may be stored in the prediction information storage unit 126 (see FIG. 8).

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate prediction information for a user located in the area B in a predetermined time zone. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate prediction information corresponding to the morning B area for a user located in the B area in the morning time zone (6:00 to 10:00). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate prediction information corresponding to the night B area for a user located in the B area in the night time zone (19:00 to 23:00).

  As described above, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information on the B area based on the model M11 and various information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 stores the prediction information in which the B area is the prediction target area and stores the prediction information.

  The “prediction target area” shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8 indicates an area for which prediction information is to be generated. “Prediction information” shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8 indicates prediction information generated for the prediction target area. “Partial area” shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8 indicates a partial area in the prediction target area. The “number of pushes” shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8 indicates the number of times that it is predicted that the push notification is performed to the user located in the corresponding partial area in the generation of the prediction information. The “number of times of opening” shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8 indicates the number of times that the push notification is predicted to be opened by the user located in the corresponding partial area in the generation of the prediction information. The “opening rate (%)” shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8 is a ratio (= the number of times of opening) in which the user located in the corresponding partial area is predicted to open the push notification in generating the prediction information. / Push count × 100). For example, the “opening rate (%)” takes a value of 0 to 100 (%). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates the opening rate of the user.

  For example, in the example shown in the prediction information storage unit 126 in FIG. 8, the prediction information for the prediction target area “B area” is “2000 (times)” for the user located in the partial area LC2-1 in the B area. Indicates that a push notification is expected to be made. Also, for example, it indicates that the user located in the partial area LC2-1 in the B area is expected to open the push notification “40 (times)”. Further, for example, the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC2-1 in the B area is “2 (%)” because it is predicted that the opening is performed 40 times out of 2,000 notifications. Is shown. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 calculates the opening rate of the user located in the partial area LC2-1 as “2% (= 40/2000 * 100)”.

  In the example of FIG. 11, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information PM11 in which the B area is a prediction target area. The prediction information PM11 shown in the B area of the map information MP1-3 in FIG. 11 indicates the level of the opening rate in each partial area in a display form like a heat map. In the example of FIG. 11, the higher the hatched area, the higher the predicted opening rate. In the example of FIG. 11, the prediction information PM11 indicates that the opening rate is high in the lower right partial area in the B area. In the example of FIG. 11, the prediction information PM11 indicates that the opening rate is slightly higher in the partial area LC2-2 and the like in the B area. In the example of FIG. 11, the prediction information PM11 indicates that the opening rate is low in the partial area LC2-1 and the like in the B area. That is, in the area B, the opening rate near the lower right part is high, and the opening rate decreases as the distance from the lower right part increases.

  As described above, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information for predicting the opening rate of the push notification for the B area where the result of the push notification is insufficient. Accordingly, the information processing apparatus 100 can accurately perform various services related to the push notification even in the B area where the result of the push notification is insufficient. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 can generate distribution information for a point where information such as an area with a large population is easily collected using information on the area. On the other hand, it is difficult for the information processing apparatus 100 to generate distribution information using information on the area where the amount of information that can be acquired is insufficient due to a small population or the like. Therefore, the information processing apparatus 100 generates the prediction information of the area with insufficient information using the information of the area with sufficient information, so that a desired prediction can be performed even on the area with insufficient information. As described above, the information processing apparatus 100 makes it possible to predict the presence or absence of a user's predetermined operation in another area where the results are insufficient and which can be obtained based on the information of the predetermined area where the results are sufficiently obtainable. be able to. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 can generate prediction information indicating that the periphery where a specific POI is located tends to have a high opening rate. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 can generate prediction information or the like indicating that an area where there are many users with a specific attribute tends to have a high opening rate. Further, for example, even if the information processing apparatus 100 is at the same position, by generating the prediction information according to the time zone, the prediction information or the like indicating that the opening rate increases at the timing when the predetermined event is performed is generated. Can be generated.

  Various predictions can be performed based on the prediction information generated by the information processing device 100 as described above. For example, when the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on a position (an area or the like) and a time (a time zone or the like), it becomes possible to predict a timing at which an opening rate becomes high in a certain area by the generated prediction information. . For example, when the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on a position (area or the like) and time (time zone or the like), the generated prediction information indicates an area near a bus stop and a timing at which students gather. Thus, it is possible to predict that the opening rate near the bus stop will be high. In addition, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on the position (area or the like) and time (time zone or the like), and the generated prediction information indicates an area near the bus stop and a timing at which students gather. In addition, it is possible to predict that the opening rate near the bus stop becomes high immediately before the bus arrives.

  Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on a position (area or the like) and a time (time zone or the like), and the generated prediction information allows the area near the racetrack where an important race is held to be performed. In addition, at the timing when an important race runs, it is possible to predict that the opening rate near the racetrack will be high. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on a position (area or the like) and a time (time zone or the like), and the generated prediction information allows the area near the racetrack where an important race is held to be performed. At a predetermined timing (for example, 20 minutes before the start, etc.) before the start of the important race, it is possible to predict that the opening rate near the racetrack will increase. Further, the information processing apparatus 100 may use such prediction information to charge a higher fee for advertisement distribution in an area during a time period when the opening rate is high in the area than in other time periods. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 uses such prediction information to display a unit price for an advertisement space in content distributed to the terminal device 10 located in the area during a time period when the opening rate is high in the area. May be higher than other time zones. The above is an example, and the information processing apparatus 100 may use the prediction information for various services.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may perform a push notification based on the generated prediction information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may perform a push notification to a user located in a hatched portion (lower right in the B area) in the prediction information PM11. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 may provide the generated prediction information to an external information processing apparatus. For example, the information processing device 100 may provide the prediction information to an external device that performs a content providing service.

[1-1-1. Generation of prediction information by simulation)
As described above, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on the context information such as the behavior information of the user located in the area B as the prediction target area and the surrounding environment information, and the model M11. However, the prediction information may be generated by a predetermined simulation. In this case, the storage unit 120 of the information processing apparatus 100 may include a simulator information storage unit (not shown) in which various types of information on a predetermined simulator such as information on a virtual space are stored. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate the prediction information based on the B area in the virtual space reflecting the flow of the people in the B area and the context information of the features of the B area.

  Further, the model information storage unit 125 of the information processing apparatus 100 may store a model applied to an agent in a simulation (hereinafter, also referred to as an “agent model”). For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a model applied to an agent in a simulation. For example, the information processing device 100 generates a model based on user behavior information. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate an agent model based on user behavior information in the area A. For example, the information processing device 100 generates an agent model corresponding to each attribute based on the behavior information of the user. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate various agent models such as an agent model for a male in his 20s and an agent model for a female in his 20s based on the behavior information of the user. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate an agent model in consideration of various types of environmental information such as open data. For example, the information processing device 100 may store the generated agent model in the model information storage unit 125.

  For example, even if the information processing apparatus 100 generates simulation information (simulation log) on the behavior of an agent in a predetermined simulator using various information on a predetermined simulator such as information on a virtual space stored in a simulator information storage unit. Good. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate simulation information (simulation log) by allocating an agent model stored in the model information storage unit 125 to an agent and performing a push notification and a simulation related to opening the push notification. Further, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate prediction information based on the generated simulation information.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may generate a simulation log by simulating the behavior of a user (human) in the area B that is the prediction target area. For example, the prediction information may be generated based on a simulation in order to predict the opening rate of the push notification in the B area because the number of times of the push notification to the actual user in the B area is insufficient. .

  For example, the information processing device 100 determines an agent model applied to each agent. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may determine an agent model to be applied to each agent based on information related to the population structure of the B area included in the environmental information ED of the B area. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may determine an agent model to be applied to each agent based on the population structure of the B area relating to age and gender as attribute information. The attribute information used for the population structure is not limited to age and gender, and various attribute information may be used.

  In the following example, it is assumed that the population in the area B is predominantly male in their 20s. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates agents for the number of people (population and the like) in the B area. In the example of FIG. 11, it is assumed that the information processing apparatus 100 has a population of 50,000 in the area B and generates 50,000 agents. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 assigns attributes to 50,000 agents so as to reflect the population structure in the area A. For example, when the ratio of males in their 20s in the B area is 50%, the information processing apparatus 100 assigns the attribute of males in their 20s to 25,000 agents. Further, for example, when the ratio of women in their 20s in the B area is 20%, the information processing apparatus 100 assigns the attribute of women in their 20s to 10,000 agents.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 applies an agent model corresponding to a male in his 20s to an agent having a male attribute in his 20s. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 applies an agent model corresponding to a man in his 20s to 25,000 agents to which an attribute of a man in his 20s is assigned. Further, for example, the information processing apparatus 100 applies an agent model corresponding to a woman in her twenties to 10,000 agents to which an attribute of a woman in her twenties is assigned.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 100 performs a simulation using an agent to which an agent model is applied. For example, each agent applied to the virtual space corresponding to the B area performs an action according to an agent model assigned to each agent. For example, an agent to which an agent model corresponding to a man in his 20's applies a push notification at a predetermined timing may open the push notification according to the context such as the position and situation in the B area at that time. Determine whether or not. Also, for example, when a push notification is given at a predetermined timing, an agent to which an agent model corresponding to a woman in her twenties opens the push notification according to the context such as the position and situation in the B area at that time. Decide if you want to.

  Thus, the information processing apparatus 100 generates a simulation log by causing each agent to perform an action in the virtual space corresponding to the B area. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 may store the generated simulation log in the storage unit 120. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information based on the generated simulation log. For example, the information processing apparatus 100 generates prediction information (for example, prediction information PM11 in FIG. 11) in which the B area is a prediction target area based on a simulation log corresponding to the B area.

  The example shown in FIG. 9 indicates that if the score output by the model is 0 or less, the opening probability is predicted to be 0%. If the score output by the model is 0 or less, the profitability is at level LV0. When the score output by the model is greater than 0 and equal to or less than 1, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 0 to 100%.

When the score output by the model is greater than 0 and equal to or less than 1, it indicates that the profitability is at the level LV1.

  If the score output by the model is greater than 1 and equal to or less than 2, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 100%. When the score output by the model is greater than 1 and equal to or less than 2, it indicates that the profitability is at the level LV2. If the score output by the model is greater than 2 and equal to or less than 3, it indicates that the opening probability is predicted to be 100%. When the score output by the model is greater than 2 and equal to or less than 3, it indicates that the profitability is level LV3.
