Description

  The present invention relates to a server device, a control method, a program, and a recording medium, and particularly to display of items in a list.

  Conventionally, it is known that a list of information related to a keyword existing on the Internet can be obtained by performing a search by specifying a keyword in a search engine. It has been found that the user determines in a short time whether or not the items listed in this list are what he / she wants and skips a considerable number of items. Also, if the user determines that the item displayed at the top of the list is not what he / she desires, the user often performs a re-search or stops the search without checking the list to the end. In such cases, the user may have missed the item even if the item that the user is actually interested in is included in the list.

On the other hand, a technique for reflecting user trends in information provided to users is known. For example, Patent Literature 1 discloses a technique for grasping a user's browsing status with respect to a WEB page provided to a user in order to develop a rich content.

(3. Outline Configuration of Server Device of Embodiment 1)
The server device 100 according to the first embodiment corrects the list based on the visible time of the user who specified the tag.

  As illustrated in FIG. 4, the server device 100 according to the first embodiment includes a reception unit 101, a search unit 102, a display unit 103, an acquisition unit 104, and a correction unit 105.

  In the present embodiment and the embodiments described below, the CPU 601 and the NIC 605 cooperate to function as the reception unit 101, the search unit 102, the display unit 103, and the acquisition unit 104. Further, the CPU 601 functions as the correction unit 105. Further, in the present embodiment and the embodiment described below, the function of the server apparatus 100 will be described using an electronic market shopper as an example of a user who designates a tag.

  The accepting unit 101 accepts a request for designating a tag from the terminal.

  A tag is, for example, a word indicating a feature of a product handled in the electronic market, and is given by a manager of a shop or an electronic market. Tags can be sold with different tags from different shops for the same product.

  For example, when the shopper X performs a search by specifying the tag “AAA” on the shopping site provided by the server device 100, the reception unit 101 performs a search in which the tag “AAA” is specified from the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper X. Accept the request.

  The search unit 102 acquires a list including the searched item by searching for an item to which the tag specified in the received request is assigned.

  An item is a product handled in the electronic market, for example.

  For example, the search unit 102 searches a search engine for searching for products in the electronic market using the tag “AAA” as a search word, and lists 510 (FIG. 5) of the products 1, 2 to 45 to which the tag “AAA” is assigned. To get. The list 510 includes information 5001 to 5045 of the products 1 to 45.

  The display unit 103 displays the acquired list on the terminal screen.

  For example, the display unit 103 transmits the acquired list 510 to the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper X, and the shopper terminal 200 displays the list 510 on the screen of the shopper terminal 200.

  The acquisition unit 104 acquires the visible time on the terminal until each item included in the list appears on the screen and disappears from the screen by scrolling the list on the screen.

  For example, the browser 800 on the screen of the shopper terminal 200 is displayed, and a part of the list 510 is displayed in the browser 800 as shown in FIG. FIG. 6 shows a state in which the list 510 is first displayed on the browser 800. In this state, information 5001 to 5004 about the products 1 to 4 is displayed in the browser 800. FIG. 7 shows a state where the information 5001 of the product 1 has disappeared from the browser 800 by scrolling. In such a case, the acquisition unit 104 acquires the time from when the information 5001 of the product 1 is displayed on the browser 800 (FIG. 6) until it disappears from the browser 800 (FIG. 7) as the visible time. Similarly, the acquiring unit 104 acquires the visible time for the information 502 on the product 2 included in the list 510,.

  The list according to the present embodiment is configured in an HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) format or an XHTML (Extensible Hyper Text Markup Language) format, and a program described in a script language such as JavaScript (registered trademark) is included. Suppose that it is specified. The function of the acquisition unit 104 is realized by the program running on the browser of the shopper terminal 200. That is, when the program is operated, the visible time is measured in the shopper terminal 200 and transmitted to the server device 100, and the acquisition unit 104 acquires it.

  For example, the acquisition unit 104 registers information related to the visible time in the visible time information table 700a stored in the visible time information DB 700. The visible time information DB 700 may be included in the server device 100 or an external device.

  In the visible time information table 700a of FIG. 8, the specified tag 700a1, the product ID 700a2 of the product included in the list searched from the tag, the shop ID 700a3 of the shop that sells the product, and the tag are specified. A shopper ID 700a4 of a shopper and a visible time (unit: second) 700a5 by the shopper are registered in association with each other.

  The first line of the visible time information table 700a of FIG. 8 includes the product 1 (product ID “1”) in the list searched based on the tag “AAA”, and the product 1 is the shop a1 (shop ID “a1”). ) And the visible time of the product 1 by the shopper X (shopper ID “X”) designating the tag is “0.2” seconds.

  The correction unit 105 lowers the priority for the tag of the item satisfying the short time condition of the acquired visible time, so that the new request acquired by accepting a new request in which the tag is specified is received. Decrease the order of items satisfying the short / small condition, or delete items satisfying the short / small condition from the new list.

  The short / small condition is a condition for determining that the visible time value is shorter than a predetermined value. The predetermined value may be any value as long as it is considered that the degree of interest of the viewer is low if the value is equal to or less than that value. For example, the predetermined value is a time (for example, 0.3 seconds) considered necessary for a human to understand and react to one piece of information. If the visible time is shorter than such a value, it can be considered that the item was skipped, or the item was recognized, but was not interested. Therefore, it is considered that the item of the visible time that satisfies the short and short conditions has a low degree of interest of the user who is the list viewer.

  In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the short / small condition is a condition of being shorter than 0.3 seconds.

  The priority indicates the degree to which an item is displayed with priority in the list. If the priority is low, the item is not conspicuous in the list, or after the list is first displayed on the screen. The item is displayed so that it takes time before it becomes visible to the user.

  The correction unit 105 identifies a product whose visible time of the products 1 to 45 by the shopper X is shorter than 0.3 seconds. For example, it is assumed that the visible times of the products 1 and 3 are shorter than 0.3 seconds. When the receiving unit 101 receives a request specifying the tag “AAA” from the shopper X again, the correcting unit 105 corrects the arrangement of the products so that the products 1 and 3 in the list 510 are arranged at the lowest position. 520 (FIG. 9) is obtained. The correcting unit 105 may delete the product 1 and the product 3 from the list 510.

  The display unit 103 transmits the list 520 to the terminal of the shopper X, and the list 520 is displayed on the screen.

  According to the present embodiment, for a user who has requested a list of items associated with a tag, an item with a high degree of interest can be preferentially displayed in the list, and a list useful for the user can be provided. Can do.

  In the above example, the visible time of the shopper X that searched for the tag “AAA” is used for correcting the list, and the corrected list is provided to the shopper X that searched for the same tag “AAA” again. The shopper who asked for time may be different from the shopper for whom the modified list is provided. For example, the visible time of the shopper X who searched for the tag “AAA” is used to correct the list, and the corrected list is provided to the shopper Y who searched for “AAA”.

  With such a configuration, the list can be corrected to useful contents based on the browsing tendency of other users.

  In addition, the correcting unit 105 urges the granter who has given the tag that caused the list to be obtained for the item satisfying the short and small conditions to correct the tag given to the item.

  The grantor is, for example, a manager of a shop or an electronic market.

  For example, the correction unit 105 notifies the shop a1 with the tag “AAA” attached to the product 1 that satisfies the short and small conditions that the tag “AAA” for the product 1 needs to be corrected (FIG. 10). ). Similarly, the correction unit 105 transmits a message notifying that the correction is necessary to the shop c3 to which the tag “AAA” is attached to the product 3 that satisfies the short and large conditions.

  A product that satisfies the short and small conditions can be regarded as having a low degree of interest for a shopper who has specified a tag and searched, and there is a high possibility that the product is not expected by the person who specified the tag. This is because there is a possibility that the correspondence between the tag and the product is not appropriate or wrong, and it is necessary to prompt the shop to which the tag is attached to make corrections.

  According to the present embodiment, it is possible to detect an item with a tagging error and prompt the granter to correct the tag, and to provide the user with a list including more useful items. Can do.

(4. Operation of server device of embodiment 1)
The operation of the server device 100 of this embodiment will be described. For example, when the power is turned on, the server apparatus 100 starts the control process shown in FIG.

  The accepting unit 101 determines whether or not a request with a tag designated is accepted from the terminal (step S101). When the reception unit 101 determines that a request with a tag specified has been received (step S101; Yes), the search unit 102 searches for an item to which the tag is assigned and acquires a list including the item ( Step S102). On the other hand, if the receiving unit 101 determines that the request with the tag specified has not been received (step S101; No), it waits as it is.

  For example, if the receiving unit 101 receives a request in which the tag “AAA” is specified from the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper X, the search unit 102 searches the search engine for the tag “AAA” as a search word, A list 510 (FIG. 5) of products 1, 2 to 45 to which “AAA” is assigned is acquired. On the other hand, when a request is not received from any shopper terminal 200, it waits as it is.

  The correcting unit 105 determines whether or not the tag specified in the request is the tag specified for the first time (step S103). When the correction unit 105 determines that the tag is designated for the first time (step S103; Yes), the display unit 103 displays the obtained list on the screen of the terminal (step S104). And the acquisition part 104 acquires the visible time in a terminal until it lose | disappears from the inside of a screen after each item contained in a list | wrist appears in a screen by scrolling a list within a screen ( Step S105).

  On the other hand, when the correcting unit 105 determines that the tag is not designated for the first time (step S103; No), the correcting unit 105 is based on the visible time acquired in the past of the item to which the designated tag is assigned. The list is corrected (step S106). Then, the process proceeds to step S104.

  For example, when the tag “AAA” is the first designated tag, the display unit 103 transmits the acquired list 510 to the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper X, and the shopper terminal 200 displays the list 510 on the screen of the shopper terminal 200. Is displayed.

  Then, the acquisition unit 104 acquires the time from when the list 510 is displayed on the browser 800 on the screen of the shopper terminal 200 and the information 5001 to 5045 of each product included in the list 510 disappears after appearing in the browser 800. To do. The acquisition unit 104 registers the acquired visible time in the visible time information table 700a in association with tags, items, and the like.

  On the other hand, when the tag “AAA” is a tag that has been designated in the past by the shopper X or another shopper, the correcting unit 105 refers to the visible time information table 700a and is associated with the tag “AAA”. Find the visible time of the product. Then, the correcting unit 105 determines whether or not the visible time of each product satisfies the shortness condition. The correction unit 105 corrects the list 510 by, for example, lowering the priority of display of the products having a visible time condition that satisfies the short and short conditions in the list 510 obtained based on the tag “AAA”. Then, the display unit 103 transmits the corrected list 520 to the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper X that designates the tag “AAA”, and the corrected list is displayed.

  And the acquisition part 104 acquires the visible time of the information of each goods contained in a list in the shopper terminal 200 where the corrected list was displayed.

(5. Outline Configuration of Server Device of Embodiment 2)
The server apparatus 100 according to the second embodiment corrects the list based on the visible times of a plurality of users who specify a common tag.

  As illustrated in FIG. 12, the server device 100 according to the second embodiment includes a reception unit 101, a search unit 102, a display unit 103, an acquisition unit 104, a correction unit 105, and a statistics unit 106. . In the present embodiment, the search unit 102 and the display unit 103 have the same functions as those in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, functions different from those of the first embodiment of the reception unit 101, the acquisition unit 104, and the correction unit 105 and functions of the statistics unit 106 will be described.

  In this embodiment and the embodiments described below, the CPU 601 functions as the statistics unit 106.

  The accepting unit 101 accepts requests from a plurality of terminals.

  For example, the reception unit 101 receives requests in which various tags are designated from the shopper terminals 200 such as shoppers X, Y, Z, W, and V.

  The acquisition unit 104 acquires the visible time in each of the plurality of terminals.

  For example, the acquisition unit 104 acquires the visible time for a product included in a list obtained from a tag specified by each shopper in each shopper terminal 200 such as the shopper X, Y, Z, W, or V.

  For example, the acquisition unit 104 registers information on the visible time acquired for a plurality of shoppers in the visible time information table 700a stored in the visible time information DB 700. The acquisition unit 104 may acquire a selection time until selection when a product in the list is selected. Then, the acquired selection information is also registered in the visible time information table 700a.

  In the visible time information table 700a of FIG. 13, the specified tag 700a1, the product ID 700a2 of the product included in the list searched from the tag, the shop ID 700a3 of the shop that sells the product, and the tag are specified. A shopper ID 700a4 of the shopper, a visible time (unit: second) 700a5 by the shopper, and a selection time (unit: second) 700a6 are registered in association with each other.

  The first line of the visible time information table 700a in FIG. 13 includes the product 1 (product ID “1”) in the list searched based on the tag “AAA”, and the product 1 is the shop a1 (shop ID “a1”). ) And the visible time of the product 1 by the shopper X (shopper ID “X”) designated by the tag is “0.2” seconds, and the selection time is not acquired (that is, the product 1 is selected) Not).

  The statistical unit 106 obtains a statistical value for the visible time and a statistical value for the selection time until an item is selected.

  The statistical value obtained by the statistical unit 106 is an average, an average of attenuation, a median value, or a mode value.

  The statistical unit 106 obtains a statistical value for the entire plurality of terminals of the visible time in each of the plurality of terminals that have issued requests for designating common tags.

  For example, if shoppers X, Y, and Z each send a request specifying a common tag “AAA”, and shoppers W and V send a request that specifies a tag different from tag “AAA”, 106 calculates | requires a statistics value about the visible time of each goods acquired about shopper X, Y, and Z. FIG.

  For example, the statistical unit 106 refers to the visible time information table 700a in FIG. 13 to obtain the average value, median value, or mode value of the visible time of the product 1 by the shoppers X, Y, and Z. Or the statistics part 106 calculates | requires the attenuation | damping average of the visible time of the goods 1. FIG. Here, the attenuation average is an average in which the weighting is reduced as the sample value is obtained in the past. For example, if the visible times are obtained in the order of shopper X, Y, and Z, the visible time of shopper X is multiplied by 0.8, the visible time of shopper Y is multiplied by 1.0, and the visible time of shopper Z is 1 Multiply by 2 to find the average of their sum.

  Further, the statistical unit 106 obtains a statistical value of the selection time of the selected item in a case where any item is selected from the list displayed on the screen.

  For example, the time from when an item (product) appears on the screen until it is selected is taken as the selection time. Alternatively, the time from when a list including items is displayed on the screen until it is selected may be set as the selection time. Or after selecting an item, it is good also considering the time until the next item is selected as the selection time of the next item.

  For example, the statistical unit 106 obtains the average, decay average, median value, or mode value of the selection times recorded in the visible time information table 700a of FIG. This statistical value may be obtained for each shopper or may be obtained for the entire shopper.

  The correction unit 105 determines whether the statistical value of the visible time satisfies the short / small condition using the statistical value of the selection time as a threshold of the short / small condition.

  For example, if the statistical value of the selection time is determined to be “5.0” seconds, the correction unit 105 sets the threshold value “5.0” seconds for the short / small condition. If the statistical value of the visible time of the product 1 is determined to be “1.0” seconds, the correcting unit 105 determines that the shortness condition is satisfied because the visible time of the product 1 is shorter than the threshold value “5” seconds. Then, the correction unit 105 lowers or deletes the display priority of the product 1 that satisfies the short / small condition in the list that is presented when a search with the tag “AAA” is performed next.

  According to the present embodiment, the arrangement of items in the list can be corrected by reflecting the degree of interest of a plurality of users.

  In addition, an item that has been viewed by the user for a shorter time than the typical selection time is highly likely not to be selected. Therefore, by lowering or deleting the priority of such items, it is possible to preferentially display items that are likely to be selected.

  The statistical unit 106 calculates the moving speed of the item in the screen from the scroll direction height on each screen of the plurality of terminals and the visible time of the item, and the statistical value of the calculated moving speed You may ask for.

  For example, it is assumed that the visible time from when the information 5004 of the product 4 included in the list 510 is displayed on the browser 800 as shown in FIG. Further, it is assumed that the statistical unit 106 obtains the height 801 in the scroll direction of the screen of FIG. 6 as “15 cm”. In this case, the statistic unit 106 obtains the moving speed on the screen of the product 4 information 5004 as “5 cm / second”.

  And the correction | amendment part 105 may judge that shortness conditions are satisfy | filled if the statistical value of moving speed is larger than a predetermined threshold value.

  For example, for the shoppers X, Y, and Z that specify the tag “AAA”, the statistical unit 106 obtains the moving speed of each product, and obtains a statistical value such as an average value from the obtained values. Then, the correction unit 105 sets the average value of the moving speeds of items in the list obtained from the tag “AAA” and other tags as a predetermined threshold value. Then, when the moving speed of the product is higher than the predetermined threshold, that is, when the moving speed is higher than the average moving speed, the correcting unit 105 lowers or deletes the priority of the product. In addition, the moving speed which becomes a predetermined threshold value may be calculated | required for every shopper, and may be calculated | required about all the shoppers.

  With such a configuration, it is possible to lower or delete the display priority for items that are skipped quickly.

The display unit 103 transmits a list including information on the products 1 to 25 and the products 46 to 65 to the plurality of shopper terminals 200, and the list is displayed on the browser of each shopper terminal 200.

  The acquisition unit 104 scrolls the list in each screen of the plurality of terminals, so that the items of the plurality of terminals from the appearance of each item included in the list to the disappearance from the screen can be obtained. Get the visible time in each.

  For example, in the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper X, the acquisition unit 104 displays the time (visible time) until each of the information 5001 to 5045 of the products 1 to 45 included in the list 510 appears on the browser 800 and disappears from the browser 800. ) To get. Similarly, in the shopper terminal 200 where the list is transmitted and displayed on the screen, the visible time is obtained for the products included in the list. For example, if a list including the products 1 to 25 and the products 46 to 65 is transmitted to the shopper terminal 200 of the shopper Y, the acquisition unit 104 calculates the visible time for each of the information on the products 1 to 25 and the products 46 to 65. get.

  The statistical unit 106 obtains statistical values for the entire plurality of terminals for the visible time acquired for each of the items included in the list.

  For example, the statistical unit 106 obtains a statistical value such as an average, an average of attenuation, a median value, or a mode value for each product for the visible time by a plurality of shoppers.

  The correcting unit 105 corrects the list by lowering the order in the list of items for which the calculated statistical value satisfies the short / small condition, or deleting the item satisfying the short / small condition from the list.

  The correction unit 105 compares each of the statistical values of the visible time obtained for each product with the threshold value of the short / small condition. For example, if the statistical value of the visible time obtained for the product 1 is smaller than the threshold, the correction unit 105 lowers or deletes the priority of the product 1 in the list including the product 1.

  The corrected list may be displayed, for example, when display update is performed in the shopper terminal 200, or may be automatically updated after the correction process is completed.

  According to this embodiment, an item with a high degree of interest of a user can be preferentially displayed in the list, and a list useful for the user can be provided.
