  Hereinafter, modes (hereinafter, referred to as “embodiments”) for realizing an information processing device, an information processing method, and an information processing program according to the present application will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the information processing apparatus, the information processing method, and the information processing program according to the present application are not limited to this embodiment. Further, in each of the following embodiments, the same parts are designated by the same reference numerals, and duplicate description is omitted. Further, in the following description, a bidding device that executes a predetermined bidding process will be described as an example of the information processing device.

  First, an example of a bid process according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a bid process according to the embodiment. The bidding apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1 provides a bidding service for acquiring the right to add a new node to the determination information which is the dialogue information in which the dialogue information in the dialogue agent system is registered. Specifically, the bidding apparatus 100 receives the judgment information from the response generation server, presents the judgment information to the advertiser, and then receives the bid from the advertiser. In addition, the response generation server 30 illustrated in FIG. 1 determines the response in the dialogue with the user (not shown) using the determination information regarding the dialogue.

[1-1. Judgment tree)
First, the determination information used by the response generation server 30 will be described. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the determination information according to the embodiment. The dialogue agent system 1 realizes dialogue with the user by using a decision tree (for example, a corpus) as shown in FIG. 2 as the decision information. Specifically, the response generation server 30 determines a response message to be returned to the user with respect to the input message which is the utterance of the user based on the determination tree as shown in FIG. In the following, the judgment information may be referred to as a judgment tree. That is, in the following, the judgment information can be read as a judgment tree.

  In the example shown in FIG. 2, a broken line block indicates a detection node and a solid line block indicates an operation node. Further, node IDs N101 to N112 are assigned to these blocks, respectively. For example, a broken line block ““ Curry ”detection” of the node ID “N101” indicates a detection block, and a solid line block ““ where curry? ”Of the node ID“ N103 ”. Roppongi? "" Indicates an operation block. The detection node defines the processing procedure corresponding to the input message from the user, and the operation node defines the processing procedure corresponding to the response message. Therefore, the determination information regarding the dialogue shown in FIG. 2 includes the detection node and the action node.

  Further, the blocks shown in FIG. 2 are associated by being connected by an arrow line. Specifically, the node on the side without the arrow of the arrow line is associated with the connection source node, and the node on the side with the arrow is associated with the connection destination node. For example, the arrow line that associates the node with node ID “N104” with the node with node ID “N106” is the operation in which the connection source node is the detection node with node ID “N104” and the connection destination node is with node ID “N106”. It is a node. The node with the node ID “N104” is also associated with the operating node with the node ID “N107” as the connection source node. That is, when the response generation server 30 determines that ““ Roppongi ”detection” corresponding to the node ID “N104” has been performed based on the user's utterance, the node ID “N106” or the node ID “N107” that is the connection destination node. Transition to any operation node. Then, the response message of the corresponding operation node is returned to the user. Specifically, in the case of transition to the node ID “N106”, the response generation server 30 responds to the user with a response message “I like curry at store A” corresponding to the operating node with the node ID “N106”. In this way, the dialogue agent system 1 advances the dialogue with the user. Transition probabilities are attached above the arrow lines of the determination tree shown in FIG. 2, and the states transit according to the transition probabilities. Since the transition probabilities of the operation nodes having the node ID “N106” and the node ID “N107” shown in FIG. 2 are both 0.5, the detection nodes having the node ID “N104” make a transition with a probability of 50%. It should be noted that the transition from each node may be performed at random without using the transition probability.

  Here, the determination information regarding the dialogue used in the dialogue agent system 1 includes a node regarding advertisement and a node regarding conversation. Specifically, the action nodes in the decision tree that is the decision information shown in FIG. 2 include action nodes related to advertisement and action nodes related to conversation. For example, the operation node having the node ID “N106” is a response message including a specific store name ““ I like curry at store A ”” and therefore corresponds to the operation node related to advertisement. In addition, the action node with the node ID “N102” is a response message that does not include a specific store name or product name ““ It's delicious ”, so it corresponds to the action node related to conversation. The dialogue agent system 1 provides the user with the advertisement in a natural conversation by interweaving the node relating to the advertisement and the node relating to the conversation. That is, if the decision tree used in the dialogue agent system 1 is not a decision tree that outputs an advertisement at an appropriate timing for the user or the advertiser, the advertisement is output at a timing at which the dialogue flow is interrupted. Therefore, the advertisement cannot be displayed effectively for the user. In other words, the accuracy of the decision tree regarding the dialogue used in the dialogue agent system 1 has a great influence on the effect of the advertisement. In the dialogue agent system 1, the nodes in the decision tree may be automatically generated from the log relating to the dialogue.

[1-2. Bid processing)
Here, returning to FIG. 1, the bidding process will be described in detail. As shown in FIG. 1, the bidding device 100 acquires the determination tree from the response generation server 30 (step S11). At this time, the bid device 100 may acquire the entire determination tree or a part of the determination tree. The bidding device 100 may also acquire the determination tree from the response generation server 30 at preset intervals such as every other day.

  Subsequently, the bidding apparatus 100 presents to the advertiser a place where a new node can be added in the determination tree (step S12). For example, the bidding apparatus 100 presents to the advertiser a place where a lot of conversation is held and the conversation is not continued. Details of how to determine a place where a lot of conversations occur and a place where conversations do not continue will be described later. Further, the location where a new node can be added refers to a location in the determination tree where there is a node that accepts a change. The change here means to associate with a node relating to a new advertisement or a node relating to information on a dialogue to be supplemented. In the following, the association with a node relating to a new advertisement will be mainly described as an example. In addition, the bidding apparatus 100 may receive the change and the content of the node that receives the change, for example, the update regarding the response message. In the case of the example in FIG. 1, the decision tree is schematically shown by eight nodes and straight lines associating each node. At this time, the bid device 100 may present the entire determination tree to the advertiser, or may present only the place where a new node can be added. Thus, for example, the bidding apparatus 100 presents a diagram showing only the connection relationships of nodes (see FIG. 9), and when a particular node in the diagram or a route between nodes is selected, the selected node is selected. Alternatively, a decision tree displaying detailed information of nodes included in a predetermined range from the selected route may be presented (see FIG. 2). Alternatively, the entire determination tree may be presented to the advertiser, and when the advertiser selects a dotted line location in the determination tree shown in FIG. 1, the selected location may be enlarged and presented.

  Subsequently, the bid device 100 receives bid information from the advertiser (step S13). At this time, the received bid information may include information about a new node to be added, such as an operation node and a detection node, information about a bid price, and information about advertisement placement. The action nodes added at this time may be either action nodes related to advertisement or action nodes related to conversation.

  Then, the bidding apparatus 100 updates the advertisement tree based on the information such as the action node and the detection node, which are new nodes included in the bid information received from the advertiser who has decided to make a successful bid, and responds with the updated decision tree. It transmits to the generation server 30 (step S14). After that, the response generation server 30 determines a response message to be returned to the user with respect to the input message which is the utterance of the user based on the updated determination tree.

  As described above, the bidding apparatus 100 according to the embodiment presents the decision tree including the place where a new node can be added to the advertiser, so that the advertiser can display an advertisement in accordance with the conversation flow realized by the decision tree. Can be added. Further, the voice service provider in the dialogue agent system can expand the decision tree without updating the decision tree by itself, and the accuracy can be improved. In addition, the accuracy of the decision tree is improved by accepting not only the node related to the advertisement but also the node related to the conversation from the advertiser. Specifically, the advertiser should add a node related to conversation before the node related to advertisement in order to make the flow of dialogue to his / her advertisement more natural in order to effectively serve his / her advertisement to the user. It can be expected that the nodes related to conversation as well as advertisement will be expanded accordingly. As a result, the performance of the dialog agent system can be improved. Specifically, it is considered that the advertiser registers a conversation node that naturally guides the flow of conversation to an advertisement. Therefore, the quality of the decision tree can be improved. In addition, the advertiser is considered to register the node that realizes a good conversation. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the user from leaving during the conversation.

[1-3. Dialogue agent system configuration]
As illustrated in FIG. 3, the dialogue agent system 1 according to the present embodiment includes a user terminal 10, a voice recognition server 20, a response generation server 30, a voice synthesis server 40, and a service API (Application Program Interface). The server 50, the advertiser terminal 60, and the bid device 100 are included. The user terminal 10, the voice recognition server 20, the response generation server 30, the voice synthesis server 40, the service API server 50, the advertiser terminal 60, and the bid device 100 send and receive information via the communication network 70. I do.

  From here, the outline of the process in which the dialog agent system 1 provides the voice service to the user will be described. The user terminal 10 is an information processing device such as a mobile phone, a smartphone, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a tablet PC, a notebook PC, a desktop PC, or the like. When the user's utterance is detected after the application is activated, the user terminal 10 transmits the voice data of the utterance to the voice recognition server 20.

  Upon receiving the voice data of the utterance from the user terminal 10, the voice recognition server 20 converts the voice data into text data and transmits the text data of the utterance to the user terminal 10. Upon receiving the text data of the utterance from the voice recognition server 20, the user terminal 10 transmits the text data of the utterance to the response generation server 30.

  The response generation server 30 is a computer that transmits response generation information for a user's utterance to the user terminal 10 according to text data of the utterance transmitted by the user terminal 10. When the response generation server 30 receives the text data of the utterance from the user terminal 10, the response generation server 30 specifies search conditions for data required to generate a response, and sends the data to the service API server 50 corresponding to the application activated by the user terminal 10. Make a request.

  The service API server 50 transmits data to the response generation server 30 according to the search condition received from the response generation server 30. For example, the service API server 50 performs a process of acquiring XML data, and transmits the acquired XML (Extensible Markup Language) data to the response generation server 30.

  When the response generation server 30 receives the XML data from the service API server 50, the response generation server 30 extracts the data from the XML data, converts the XML data into HTML data, and transmits the text data for displaying the response utterance to the voice synthesis server 40. The voice synthesis server 40 transmits to the response generation server 30 the intermediate notation for the response utterance generated by performing the voice synthesizing process for synthesizing the voice from the text data for displaying the response utterance. The response generation server 30 transmits the intermediate notation for response utterance, the text data for response utterance display, and the HTML data to the user terminal 10.

  The user terminal 10 outputs the response voice using the received intermediate notation for response utterance, and displays the response content using the text data and HTML data for response utterance display. In this way, the dialog agent system 1 realizes a voice service that makes an appropriate response to the user's utterance.

[2. Bidding device configuration]
Next, the configuration of the bidding device 100 according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the bidding device 100 according to the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 4, the bidding device 100 includes a communication unit 110, a storage unit 120, and a control unit 130. The bidding apparatus 100 has an input unit (for example, a keyboard and a mouse) that receives various operations from an administrator of the bidding apparatus 100, and a display unit (for example, a liquid crystal display) for displaying various information. May be.

(Communication unit 110)
The communication unit 110 is realized by, for example, a NIC (Network Interface Card). The communication unit 110 is connected to the communication network 70 by wire or wirelessly. Then, the communication unit 110 transmits / receives information to / from the response generation server 30, the advertiser terminal 60, or the like via the communication network 70.

(Storage unit 120)
The storage unit 120 is realized by, for example, a semiconductor memory device such as a RAM (Random Access Memory) or a flash memory (Flash Memory), or a storage device such as a hard disk or an optical disk.

  In the control unit 130, various programs (corresponding to an example of a bid program) stored in a storage device inside the bidding apparatus 100 include a RAM as a work area by, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or an MPU (Micro Processing Unit). It is realized by being executed as. Further, the control unit 130 is realized by, for example, an integrated circuit such as an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).

  As illustrated in FIG. 4, the control unit 130 includes an acquisition unit 131, a determination unit 132, a presentation unit 133, a reception unit 134, and a transmission unit 135, and functions and actions of information processing described below. Realize or execute. The internal configuration of the control unit 130 is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG. 4, and may be another configuration as long as it is a configuration for performing information processing described later. The connection relationship between the processing units included in the control unit 130 is not limited to the connection relationship illustrated in FIG. 4 and may be another connection relationship.

(Acquisition unit 131)
The acquisition unit 131 acquires, from the response generation server 30, a determination tree that is determination information regarding the dialogue used by the response generation server 30 in the dialogue with the user. At this time, the acquisition unit 131 may acquire the entire determination tree or a part of the determination tree. The bidding device 100 may also acquire the determination tree from the response generation server 30 at preset intervals such as every other day.

(Determination unit 132)
The determination unit 132 may output a new advertisement when the advertiser terminal receives addition of a new advertisement output during the dialogue with respect to the dialogue information in which the dialogue information in the dialogue agent system is registered. Determines whether or not the dialogue of satisfies the predetermined condition. For example, the determination unit 132 determines, from the determination tree acquired from the response generation server 30 by the acquisition unit 131, a node that accepts a change associated with a node related to the information of the dialogue to be supplemented, that is, a position where a new node can be added. .. For example, the determination unit 132 may determine that a place where many conversations are performed and a conversation is not continued is an addable place. Specifically, the determination unit 132 determines that a location that includes a node that has been used for determination more than a predetermined number of times and has less association with another node than a predetermined number is a location to which a new node can be added. You may judge. That is, the determination unit 132 determines that a portion where the conversation is not continued is an addable portion, even though many users try to have the conversation frequently. Despite the fact that many users try to have conversations frequently, the accuracy of the decision tree can be improved by adding a new node to a place where conversations do not continue. It can be said that such a place is a place where the advertiser has a great advantage of adding his / her own advertisement. Therefore, since the advertiser wants to add his / her own advertisement to the decision tree, many advertisers can expect to bid and the accuracy of the decision tree can be improved. Further, for example, the determination unit 132 may determine that a location including a node used for determination more than a predetermined number of times is a location where a new node can be added. In this case, the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times is a flow of conversation that frequently occurs in the dialog agent system using the determination tree, and therefore the advertiser has a great advantage of adding his / her own advertisement. It can be said to be a place. Therefore, since the advertiser wants to add his / her own advertisement to the decision tree, many advertisers can expect to bid and the accuracy of the decision tree can be improved.

(Presentation unit 133)
The presenting unit 133 is a plurality of nodes included in the decision tree that is the dialogue information, and among the nodes that are associated with other nodes corresponding to the flow of the dialogue, the presenting unit 133 shows the decision result of the decision unit 132. Accordingly, a node for accepting a change associated with a node regarding a new advertisement or a node regarding information of supplemented dialogue is presented. For example, the presenting unit 133 presents to the advertiser terminal 60 a portion including a portion determined by the determination unit 132 that a new node can be added from the determination tree. In addition, the presentation unit 133 displays in a identifiable manner that the node is a node that accepts a change associated with a node related to the information on the dialogue to be supplemented. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the presenting unit 133 displays in a identifiable manner that the node of N106 is a node that accepts a change associated with a node related to the information of the dialogue to be supplemented.

  Here, FIG. 5 shows an example of the advertiser page presented to the advertiser terminal 60 by the presentation unit 133 according to the embodiment. As in the example illustrated in FIG. 5, the presentation unit 133 posts the determination tree acquired from the response generation server 30 on the advertiser page W10. Specifically, eight nodes from the detection block “detection of“ Hima ”” of the node ID “N1” to the detection block “detection of“ no interest ”of the node ID“ N401 ”are listed. In the example shown in FIG. 5, since a place where a new node can be added is not posted, the advertiser selects a node that has a dialogue flow suitable for his / her own advertisement, and the lower hierarchy is posted. Get the advertiser page that was created. For example, an advertiser who wants to add an advertisement related to curry can check the determination tree under "" Curry "detected" by selecting the area indicated by R10. As a result, the advertiser can understand the flow of conversation to a place where a new node can be added.

  When the advertiser selects the area indicated by R10, the presenting unit 133, as shown in FIG. 6, displays the decision tree under the detection block ““ Curry ”detection” of the node ID “N101” and the advertiser page W20. To present. Here, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the operation block ““ I like curry at store A ”” with the node ID “N106” is the place where a new node can be added. Therefore, the operation block with the node ID “N106” is highlighted, and specifically, the frame line is displayed thick. It should be noted that the highlighting can be appropriately realized by means that is distinguishable from other nodes, such as coloring the nodes, in addition to the bold lines.

  Although illustration is omitted here, when the advertiser selects the area indicated by R20, a bid page for registering bid information is presented to the advertiser terminal 60. The advertiser places a bid by inputting information such as a new node to be added and a bid price using the bid page. In the above example, when displaying the decision tree to which a new node can be added, the decision tree shown in FIG. 6 may be displayed instead of the decision tree shown in FIG. In other words, the presentation unit 133 may present the advertiser page W20 to which a new node can be added, without presenting the advertiser page W10 to which a new node cannot be added, to the advertiser.

(Reception part 134)
The accepting unit 134 accepts registration of only a new advertisement or registration of a new advertisement and information of a dialogue that supplements a registered dialogue, according to the determination result of the determining unit 132. For example, the reception unit 134 receives bid information from the advertiser terminal 60 via a predetermined bid page. After that, the reception unit 134 updates the determination tree based on the information such as the operation node and the detection node, which are new nodes included in the bid information received from the advertiser who has decided to make a successful bid. Here, it is determined whether the new node included in the bid information received by the reception unit 134 is added to the determination tree. As a result, the reception unit 134 adds only the new node that is determined to be added to the determination tree, and thus the accuracy of the determination tree can be improved. For example, the reception unit 134 may determine whether to add a new node of the received bid information. Further, the administrator of the bidding apparatus 100 may determine a new node to be added to the judgment tree from the plurality of registered bid information, and may add it to the judgment tree. At this time, the reception unit 134 or the administrator may make the determination based on the new node, or even if the determination is made based on the bid price, the various information included in the bid information may be comprehensively determined. You can go. The advertiser who has registered the bid information may be notified of the result regarding whether or not the new node added by the advertiser can be added by an appropriate means.

  FIG. 7 shows the updated decision tree, in which N113 and N114 are newly added. Specifically, two nodes are added: a detection block with a node ID "N113", "Other" detection, and an operation block with a node ID "N114", "A store has delicious Lassi." It By using this decision tree, the flow of the dialogue stopped at the action block ““ I like curry at store A ”” with the node ID “N106” can be continued using N1d13 and N114 thereafter. It will be possible. Note that the reception unit 134 may receive registration of a new advertisement and information on a dialogue that supplements a registered dialogue. That is, the reception unit 134 may receive a node regarding conversation as well as a node regarding advertisement. For example, when the presenting unit 133 presents N110 ““ other ”detection” as a place where a new node can be added, the accepting unit 134 causes the accepting unit 134 to select the action node N115 ““ recommended ”related to the new conversation associated with the N110 node. Shall I teach you a store? “”, The detection node N116 ““ Yes ”detection” associated with the operation node, and the operation node N117 ““ Curry delicious at E shop ”” related to the advertisement associated with the detection node. In other words, the reception unit 134, together with a new advertisement, the operation node N117 "" The curry is delicious at E store "," and the operation node N115 "" Recommend recommended store information, which is information on the dialogue that supplements the registered dialogue. Whether? “” Or the detection node N116 ““ Yes ”detection” may be accepted. In this way, the accepting unit 134 accepts the node related to the conversation as well as the node related to the advertisement, so that the bid device 100 can improve the accuracy of the determination tree. Further, the reception unit 134 may receive registration of a new advertisement only together with registration of dialogue information that supplements a registered dialogue. For example, in the above example, the accepting unit 134 may not accept the registration of only N117, and may accept the registration of N117 only with N115 and N116. The accepting unit 134 may determine what kind of registration is accepted based on the result of the determination by the determining unit 132.

(Transmission unit 135)
The transmission unit 135 transmits the updated determination tree to the response generation server 30. Then, the response generation server 30 that receives the determination tree from the transmission unit 135 determines a response message to be returned to the user with respect to the input message that is the utterance of the user, based on the received determination tree.

[3. Bid processing procedure]
Next, with reference to FIG. 8, a bid processing procedure by the dialogue agent system 1 according to the embodiment will be described. FIG. 8 is a sequence diagram showing a bid processing procedure by the dialogue agent system 1 according to the embodiment.

  As illustrated in FIG. 8, the bidding device 100 acquires from the response generation server 30 a determination tree that is determination information regarding the dialogue used by the response generation server 30 in the dialogue with the user (step S1). In this case, the bidding device 100 stores the acquired determination tree in the storage unit 120.

  Then, the bidding apparatus 100 determines a place where a new node can be added in the obtained determination tree (step S2), and presents a place where a new node can be added to the advertiser terminal 60 (step S3).

  Then, the bid device 100 receives bid information including a new node from the advertiser terminal 60 via a predetermined bid page (step S4).

  Subsequently, the bidding apparatus 100 generates a determination tree including the new node received from the advertiser terminal 60 (step S5), and transmits the determination tree including the new node to the response generation server 30 (step S6). ). After that, the response generation server 30 determines a response message to be returned to the user in response to the input message, which is the utterance of the user, based on the determination tree including the new node received from the bidding device 100, and provides the voice service. Yes (step S7).

[4. Modification example)
The dialogue agent system 1 according to the above-described embodiment may be implemented in various different forms other than the above-described embodiment. Therefore, in the following, another embodiment of the dialog agent system 1 will be described.

[4-1. Judgment information]
In the above embodiment, a decision tree as shown in FIG. 2 is used as the decision information. However, the determination information is not limited to a tree shape like a determination tree, and may be a node map shape, for example. When such determination information in the form of a node map is used, the root node (corresponding to N101 in the example shown in FIG. 2) is the node when the conversation started.

[4-2. Locations where new nodes can be added)
In the above embodiment, the presenting unit 133 of the bidding apparatus 100 presents one node as a place where a new node can be added. However, the presentation unit 133 may set a location including a plurality of nodes as a location where a new node can be added. FIG. 9 is a diagram schematically showing a decision tree showing a place where a new node can be added. A decision tree including 18 nodes is posted on the advertiser page W30 shown in FIG. Here, R31 to R33 indicate locations where new nodes can be added. For example, R31 indicates a node in which the conversation does not continue any longer, and if such a node is presented as a place where a new node can be added, the advertiser can add a node for presenting the advertisement. Further, R32 is, for example, a node for which the conversation does not last for a long time, but since it is a place where it is frequently used in the conversation, by presenting such a place as a place where a new node can be added, the determination is made. You can expand the tree. Further, R33 indicates, for example, a place where the advertisement is not yet registered, and by presenting such a place as a place where a new node can be added, the advertiser can make a conversation from the conversation that is difficult to set the advertisement. It is possible to accept the addition of a node for leading to an advertisement. In this way, the advertiser can add a new node to a desired place by presenting a place to which a plurality of new nodes can be added. Note that R31 indicates a place where a new node including one node can be added, R32 indicates a place where a new node including two nodes can be added, and R33 indicates a node including four nodes. It shows the place where a new node including one can be added.

[4-3. Addition to locations with few associations)
In the above-described embodiment, the determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 determines that the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times set in advance is the place where a new node can be added. However, the determination unit 132 may determine that a node having a smaller number of associations with other nodes than a predetermined number is a location to which a new node can be added. At this time, the determination unit 132 may determine the node having the smaller number of associations as the connection source node to be a location to which a new node can be added, only for the number of associations as the connection source node. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the number of associations of the operation node N111 “I like keema curry at store C” as the connection source node is zero. Therefore, the determination unit 132 may determine that the operation node of N111 “I like keema curry at store C” is a place where a new node can be added. As a result, the dialogue agent system 1 can continue the dialogue that has been stopped at the operation node “I like keema curry at store C” of N111.

[4-4. Addition to a place where there are few associations with nodes related to advertisement]
In the above-described embodiment, the determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 determines that the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times set in advance is the place where a new node can be added. However, the determination unit 132 may determine that a node having less than a predetermined number of associations with a node related to an advertisement is a place where a new node can be added. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the operation node ““ delicious is good ”” of N102 is associated only with the detection node ““ curry ”detection” of N101 as the connection destination node. Therefore, the determination unit 132 may determine the operation node “Now, that's delicious” in N102 as a place where a new node can be added. As a result, the dialogue agent system 1 can continue the dialogue that has been stopped at the operation node ““ It's delicious ”” of N102.

  Here, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the operation node and the detection node are alternately associated. In such a case, since only the detection node is associated with the action node, the action node including the node regarding advertisement and the node regarding conversation is not associated. Therefore, the determination unit 132 determines that, as a node associated with the operation node, another node indirectly associated with the operation node (for example, directly associated with a detection node directly associated with the operation node). Up to the existing node) may be added to the judgment target. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the operation node ““ delicious ”” of N102 is directly associated with the detection node ““ curry ”detection” of N101 as the connection destination node. Therefore, the determination unit 132 determines that the three operating nodes N10 other than N102 that are directly associated with the N101 detection node ““ curry ”detection” ““ Are you hungry? "" (See FIG. 5), N103 "" Where curry? Roppongi? "", N106 "" I like curry at store A "" may be added to the judgment target. In this case, it is determined that the operation node ““ It's delicious ”is N” of N102 is associated with the node N106 ““ I like curry in store A ”” that is related to advertisement, and is associated with the node related to one advertisement. It is determined that As a result, the accuracy of the decision tree is further improved, and the advertisement can be output in a more effective conversation flow for the advertiser.

  It should be noted that the determination unit 132 can appropriately set how far the associated node is to be determined. For example, in the example illustrated in FIG. 6, the determination unit 132 determines that the detection node “curry” detection of the connection source node N101 is the node associated with the operation node ““ delicious is good ”” of N102. N10, which is the connection source node, "" Are you hungry? "" (See FIG. 5) may be the determination target. This makes it possible to further improve the accuracy of the decision tree along the flow of conversation. Further, when the connection destination node of the determination node is the detection node, the determination unit 132 may target the connection destination node of the detection node.

[4-5. Addition according to the ratio of advertisement and conversation]
In the above-described embodiment, the determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 determines that the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times set in advance is the place where a new node can be added. However, the determination unit 132 may determine that a node in which the ratio of the association with the node related to the advertisement and the association with the node related to the conversation is equal to or less than a predetermined numerical value is a place where a new node can be added. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the operation node ““ delicious is good ”” of N102 is associated only with the detection node ““ curry ”detection” of N101 as the connection destination node. Therefore, the determination unit 132 may determine the operation node “Now, that's delicious” in N102 as a place where a new node can be added. As a result, the dialogue agent system 1 can continue the dialogue that has been stopped at the operation node “Now, it's delicious” in N102, and it is a place with few links to the nodes related to advertisement. The effect of the advertisement of the advertiser in which a node relating to the advertisement is added at that position is enhanced. Note that, as described above, the determination unit 132 can appropriately set how far to determine as the associated node.

[4-6. Add to added node)
The determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 may determine that the node added to the determination tree is a location where a new node can be added. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 7, two nodes are newly added to the N113 detection block ““ Other ”detection” and the N114 operation block ““ A store is delicious for Lassi ”” Therefore, the determination unit 132 may determine that two of N113 and N114 are locations where a new node can be added. As a result, it becomes possible to continue the dialogue, and the accuracy of the decision tree is further improved. For example, when the advertiser has replenished a node, but the number of transitions to the node has not reached a predetermined number, the determination unit 132 may determine that the node is a place where a new node can be added. Good. In addition, the determining unit 132 may determine that the node is a place where a new node can be added, for example, when the number of times the advertiser has used the node after the addition of the node has decreased over time.

[4-7. Addition to the place after the specified layer)
In the above-described embodiment, the determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 determines that the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times set in advance is the place where a new node can be added. However, the determination unit 132 may determine that a node in a predetermined hierarchy or higher in the determination tree is a location where a new node can be added. In this case, the hierarchy means that the hierarchy of the connection destination is one greater than that of the connection source. For example, if the detection node "Hima" detection of N1 in FIG. Is it free? "" Is in layer 2. For example, in the example of the decision tree shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, when the nodes of the layer 8 and later are set as locations where new nodes can be added, the operation node of N111 “I like the keema curry at C store” and N112 It is determined that the two nodes, which are the operation nodes “I like the keema curry at store D”, can add new nodes. As a result, it is possible to prevent the node related to the advertisement from being added in the initial stage of the dialogue, and the accuracy of the decision tree can be improved.

[4-8. Addition to a node within a predetermined hierarchy from the start node and without lower hierarchy]
In the above-described embodiment, the determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 determines that the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times set in advance is the place where a new node can be added. However, the determination unit 132 determines that a node within a predetermined hierarchy from the start-point node corresponding to the time when the conversation starts and a node that is not associated with a lower node of a lower hierarchy than the node is a place where a new node can be added. You may judge. In the example shown in FIG. 2, when the starting point node is N101 ““ curry ”detection” and the predetermined hierarchy from the starting point node is “1”, two nodes N102 and N103 correspond. Here, as shown in FIG. 2, since there are two nodes, N104 and N105, in the lower hierarchy associated with N103, it is not determined that a new node can be added. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2, since there is no lower layer node associated with N102, it is determined that a new node can be added. As a result, it is possible to prevent the flow of the conversation from being interrupted at the initial stage of the dialogue, and improve the accuracy of the decision tree. Further, in the above example, the layer from N101 may also be "1" for N106.

[4-9. Judgment according to advertiser]
In the above-described embodiment, the determination unit 132 of the bidding device 100 determines that the node used for the determination more than the predetermined number of times set in advance is the place where a new node can be added. However, the determination unit 132 may determine that the new node can be added, depending on the advertiser who wants to add the new node to the determination tree. Specifically, using the evaluation function, the node is determined to be a place where a new node can be added only to the advertiser whose evaluation value of the evaluation function exceeds a predetermined threshold value. As an example of the evaluation function, the sum of weighted parameters may be used. As the parameter, information about the user's emotions, physical condition, hunger, or other user's condition, or information about the content of conversation such as meal talk, weather talk, sports talk, or the like may be used. The parameters vary depending on the conversation flow of each node. For example, the value of the parameter relating to the physical condition and the parameter relating to the story of the weather become large. Further, the weighted value of each parameter varies depending on the advertiser. For example, when the curry shop is an advertiser, the weighted values of the parameters related to hunger and the parameters related to meals become large. Thereby, the new node can be added only to the advertiser who is suitable for displaying the advertisement in the flow of the conversation, so that the accuracy of the decision tree is improved.

[4-10. Combination of judgment conditions)
The conditions for determining that a new node can be added in the above-described embodiment and modification may be used in combination as appropriate. By combining these multiple conditions, it is possible to present locations where the accuracy of the decision tree can be improved according to the detailed conditions as locations where new nodes can be added, and the accuracy of the decision tree can be further improved.
