You may build a learning model that determines what is unimportant to In this case, the information providing apparatus 100 creates a learning model constructed through machine learning using, for example, RNN (Recurrent Neural Network), LSTM (Long short-term memory), etc. After learning the detailed information as correct data, an image of the belongings of the user U and the detailed information are input to the model, and the determination result that the item is unimportant is obtained as an output. The detailed information of the belongings of the user U includes, for example, category, shape, size, pattern/color, presence/absence of scratches/stains, model year/elapsed years, price at the time of purchase, and the like.

Alternatively, contrary to the above, the information providing apparatus 100 may perform machine learning on the belongings of the user U and build a learning model for determining what is important to the user U. In this case, the information providing apparatus 100 causes a learning model constructed through machine learning using, for example, RNN, LSTM, etc., to learn images and detailed information of objects important to user U as correct data. The image and detailed information of the belongings of the user U are input to the model, and the result of determination that the item is important is obtained as an output. At this time, the information providing apparatus 100 selects the user U from arbitrary information such as “item with high purchase frequency”, “tendency of purchase history”, “item appearing in the photo of tapping the like button on SNS”. It is also possible to presume preferences and important things, and let the model learn images and detailed information of things that are important to the user U as correct data.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the information providing device 100 may perform machine learning on the belongings of the user U and construct a learning model for estimating the market price (estimated price). In this case, the information providing apparatus 100 uses a set of the image and detailed information of the article and the market price (estimated price) of the article as correct data in a learning model constructed through machine learning using RNN, LSTM, etc. After learning, the image and detailed information of the user U's belongings are input to the model, and the market price (estimated price) is obtained as an output.

Further, in the above embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100 may issue a coupon when the user U puts up an item that is not important to the user U in response to a proposal for putting up an item. Note that the content of the coupon may be an amount added to the price when the put-up item is sold. Alternatively, the content of the coupon may be a discount when the user U purchases the product from the marketplace, or may be a return. The rate (ratio) and amount of discount or return may be determined according to the market price (estimated price) of the exhibited property.

In the above-described embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100 classifies the belongings of the user U as “items of high value” (high importance), “items of vague value” (medium importance), “ Although it is classified into three levels of "low value" ("low importance"), this is only an example. In reality, user U's belongings are classified as "very high value" (importance "5"), "relatively high value" (importance "4"), and "vague value". (importance ``3''), ``relatively low value'' (importance ``2''), and ``completely low value'' (importance ``1''). good too. That is, it is arbitrary how many levels the belongings of the user U are classified.

Further, in the above embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100 eliminates the determination of "things with ambiguous value" and divides the belongings of the user U into two types: "things of high value" and "things of low value." You may make it classify|categorize. That is, the information providing apparatus 100 clearly divides the belongings of the user U into "things that the user U does not want to let go" and "things that can be let go". As a result, the user U can keep only "things he/she does not want to let go of" among his/her belongings, and dispose of the rest.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100 does not allow the user U to carry out a "necessary item" or an "item that would suffer a disadvantage if the user U loses it", even if the user U's item is "a low-value item". etc. may not be exhibited. For example, the information providing apparatus 100 excludes items that are "low-value items" belonging to the user U from items to be exhibited (candidates for sale) when the user U's life and work are hindered by letting go of such items. can be Alternatively, when the user U performs an operation to sell the property, the information providing apparatus 100 may send a message or the like confirming whether or not the property can be put up for sale.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100 may prevent items that are not suitable for listing on the marketplace even if the user U's belongings are "low-value items". For example, the information providing apparatus 100 may identify items that are “low-value items” belonging to the user U, such as foodstuffs with a short or near expiry date, items that are not subject to general commercial transactions, and items that are valuable only to the user U himself/herself. Items that do not exist or items that include personal information such as names may be excluded from exhibition targets (exhibition candidates).

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100, when the user U's belongings are "high-value items", prevents them from being erroneously put up for sale due to operational errors, judgment errors, etc. The person U may not be able to perform the selling operation of the property itself, or the user U may not sell the property even if the user U performs the selling operation of the property. Alternatively, when the user U performs an operation to put up a "high-value item", the information providing apparatus 100 notifies the user that the item is a "high-value item" and A message or the like for confirming whether or not the item can be put up for sale may be notified.

In the above embodiment, the information providing apparatus 100, when determining whether an item is important or unimportant for the user U, determines the reason why the item is important to the user U and the reason why the item is unimportant. may be selected/input/registered by the user U. In this way, by having the user U think about the reasons why things are important and why they are not important, the user can learn the criteria (basis) for judging important things from unimportant things. It is possible to make U clearly conscious (conscious). In addition, the information providing apparatus 100 can acquire information regarding criteria for determining whether the user U considers important items and unimportant items.

[6. effect〕
As described above, the information providing apparatus 100 according to the present application includes the acquisition unit 131 that acquires information about the property owned by the user U, and the value of the property owned by the user U for the user U. and a provision unit 134 for providing recommendation information proposing to the user U to sell an item of low value (unimportant item) to the user U. For example, the determination unit 133 presents an image of the user U's property to the user U, and in response to the user U's operation regarding the image, the user U's property Judge the high or low value for U. In other words, the determination unit 133 determines whether the belongings of the user U are important or not important to the user U according to the user U's operation.

As a result, it is possible to distinguish between important items and unimportant items among the user's belongings, and to help the user let go of the unimportant items. In other words, it is possible to propose a spiritually richer life. In addition, it is possible to sort out the belongings of a user who is not highly motivated to put them up, clarify in advance the items that the user may let go of, and make it possible to put them up at any time later.
