As shown in FIG. 1 , the display processing device 1 includes a display section 11 , a processing section 13 and a characteristic degree information storage section 21 . The feature degree information storage unit 21 stores feature degree information. The feature information includes, for example, information indicating multiple types of features in the target. The target is a group of persons with specific attributes, such as a group of persons with attributes of 30's, male, and married, or a group of persons who are managers in their 40's and 50's. A person is, for example, a user who uses various web services, but is not limited to such an example.

The multiple types of characteristic degrees are, for example, information indicating the characteristics of the target from multiple types of angles. The information indicating the characteristics of the target from multiple types of angles is, for example, information indicating the degree of the target's interest in the multiple types of fields, information indicating the ratio of the target's action time to the multiple types of fields, or information indicating the target's action time ratio in the multiple types of fields. information indicating the degree of the target's ability to Note that target elements, which are elements of targets, are not limited to persons, and may be animals other than humans, companies, buildings, products, factories, regions, or the like.

The processing unit 13 of the display processing device 1 causes the display unit 11 to display the radar chart 50 indicating the plurality of types of feature degrees of the target based on the feature degree information stored in the feature degree information storage unit 21 . In the example shown in FIG. 1, the radar chart 50 shows the characteristic degrees of the multiple types A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J of the target X as the characteristic degrees of the multiple types of the target X. are indicated by polygons.

Each of these multiple types of characteristic degrees is a characteristic degree that can take a positive or negative value. In this case, it is difficult to grasp whether the feature degree of each type is a positive value or a negative value with the conventional radar chart. Therefore, in the radar chart 50 according to the embodiment, the zero position of the feature degree for each type on the radar chart 50 is clearly indicated. As a result, it is possible to easily grasp whether each type of feature degree in the target is a positive value or a negative value.

The radar chart 50 shown in FIG. 1 also shows a polygon connecting the zero positions of adjacent types in the same manner as the polygon formed by connecting adjacent feature degrees with straight lines. Thereby, it is possible to make it easier to grasp whether the feature degrees of the plurality of types are positive values or negative values in the radar chart 50 .

Here, display processing of the radar chart 50 by the display processing device 1 will be described. The processing unit 13 of the display processing device 1 acquires feature information from the feature information storage unit 21, and based on the acquired feature information, generates a radar chart 50 showing a plurality of types of feature (step S10). .

Further, the processing unit 13 identifies the zero position of the feature degree for each type on the radar chart 50 generated in step S10 (step S11). Then, the processing unit 13 causes the display unit 11 to display the radar chart 50 in which the zero position for each type specified in step S11 is clearly indicated on the radar chart 50 (step S12).

The radar chart 50 shown in FIG. 1 is a radar chart that indicates the characteristic degree for each type in the range from the minimum value to the maximum value of the characteristic degree for each type. In the radar chart 50 shown in FIG. 1, seven regular decagons having a common center and different sizes are shown. The axis of (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a virtual axis) indicates the range from the minimum value to the maximum value of each type of characteristic degree.

For example, the processing unit 13 plots the value of the characteristic degree for each type on a virtual axis provided for each type, and connects the characteristic degree values on adjacent virtual axes with a straight line, thereby forming a characteristic degree figure. Generate. In the example shown in FIG. 1, since there are ten types, there are ten virtual axes. These ten virtual axes radially extend in different directions from the center of the radar chart 50 and have the same length. The processing unit 13 plots each of the 10 feature degrees on a corresponding virtual axis out of 10 virtual axes (not shown).

For example, the processing unit 13 identifies the zero position for each type from the minimum value and maximum value of the feature degree for each type. Then, the processing unit 13 arranges the zero position figure on the radar chart 50 by, for example, plotting the zero position for each type on the virtual axis and connecting the zero positions on adjacent virtual axes with straight lines.

Then, the processing unit 13 causes the display unit 11 to display the radar chart 50 in which the zero position for each type is specified. In addition, the radar chart 50 is not limited to the example shown in FIG. For example, in the radar chart 50, the processing unit 13 can arrange a figure indicating the zero position for each type on an axis (not shown) on the radar chart 50 instead of the above-described zero position figure. A figure indicating the zero position is, for example, a thick straight line, a round point, or a polygonal point.

In this way, the display processing device 1 can display the radar chart 50 in which the zero position for each type is clearly indicated on the display unit 11. Therefore, the characteristic degree for each type is a positive value or a negative value.

Then, the processing unit 13 stores the feature information including the feature information for each specified type in the specified target based on the specified target information and the specified type information included in the radar chart display request. (step S21).

Next, the processing unit 13 identifies a feature range, which is the range of feature for each specified type, based on the feature information acquired in step S21 (step S22). Then, the processing unit 13 generates the radar chart 50 based on the characteristic degree information acquired in step S21 and the characteristic degree range for each specified type identified in step S22 (step S23). In addition, the processing unit 13 identifies the zero position of the feature degree for each specified type on the radar chart 50 (step S24).

Next, the processing unit 13 causes the display unit 11 to display the display screen 60 including the radar chart 50 in which the zero position of the feature degree for each specified type is clearly indicated on the radar chart 50 (step S25).

Next, the processing unit 13 determines whether or not there is a display switching request (step S26). When the processing unit 13 determines that there is a display switching request (step S26: Yes), the processing unit 13 switches the radar chart 50 of the display screen 60 displayed on the display unit 11 (step S27).

Displayed on the display unit 11 .

When the process of step S27 is finished, or when it is determined that there is no display switching request (step S26: No), the processing unit 13 determines whether or not there is a target addition request (step S28). If the processing unit 13 determines that there is a target addition request (step S28: Yes), the processing unit 13 adds target information to the radar chart 50 (step S29). The target information added to the radar chart 50 in step S29 is information on the degree of feature for each specified type of the specified target specified by the display switching request.

When the process of step S29 is finished, or when it is determined that there is no target addition request (step S28: No), the processing unit 13 determines whether or not there is a time-series display request (step S30). When the processing unit 13 determines that there is a time-series display request (step S30: Yes), the processing unit 13 performs time-series display processing based on the time-series information stored in the time-series information storage unit 22 (step S31). In the time-series display process, the processing unit 13 causes the display unit 11 to display the radar chart 50 in which the zero position and the characteristic degree for each designated type that change according to the change in the characteristic degree range over time are switched in chronological order.

When the process of step S31 is completed, or when it is determined that there is no time-series display request (step S30: No), the processing unit 13 determines whether or not the operation end timing has come (step S32). For example, when the power of the display processing device 1 is turned off, or when it is determined that an operation for terminating the display processing of the radar chart 50 is performed by operating the operation unit 10, the processing unit 13 performs an operation. It is determined that the end timing has come.

If the processing unit 13 determines that the operation end timing has not come (step S32: No), the process proceeds to step S26, and if it determines that the operation end timing has come (step S32: Yes), a Terminate the indicated process.
