Alternatively, you can select three types of spray, cut flower lifespan, such as 3-4 days, 5-6 days, and 7-8 days, and three flower colors such as red, pink, and yellow.

Additionally, importance analysis of attributes and partial value estimation surveys can be further conducted, and preference profiles can be extracted based on price, flower type, cut flower lifespan, and flower color of major cut flowers (roses, chrysanthemums, and lilies). Since it is practically difficult to determine the number of profile cases that can be presented according to the selected factor variables and the level attributes for each factor, that is, to determine the preference for all profiles, conjoint analysis (Conjoint Analysis) is performed by compressing each case. ) can be performed. The analysis model using conjoint analysis is as follows.

In this case, U(X) is a function of the overall alternative, and means the partial value contribution or related utility of the j-th attribute level of the i-th attribute, ki means the number of the i-th attribute level, and m is the number of attributes means The importance of attribute Ii is defined by the extent of its part-value range aij(i), which is the cross-level of the attribute. At this time, Ii is equal to Equation 2 below.

The importance of attributes can be extended by normalizing them to the relative importance of other attributes Wi.

Therefore, the relationship of Equation 4 is established.

Preference ranking can be measured using the Contingent Ranking Method for conjoint analysis to identify flower purchasing styles, and the orthogonal plan of the SPSS statistical package can be used to reduce the number of profiles while minimizing information loss. can do. By evaluating the product itself, it is possible to predict and analyze the product that the consumer will choose in the market by estimating the consumer's utility for the attributes of the product. Using the partial values derived from the results of the conjoint analysis on the demographic distribution of consumers and the parts by cluster, cluster analysis can be performed and the demographic variables and characteristics of each cluster can be analyzed. Regarding preferences for attributes, each user's gender, marital status, educational background, age, income level, etc. can be considered and classified into clusters. Of course, various methods other than the above methods may be used.

When the AI display unit 391 outputs a display portfolio of at least one flower product to the unmanned flower vending machine 400 based on the pre-modeled artificial intelligence algorithm based on the seasonal purchase data purchased from the plurality of user terminals 100, , The display portfolio may be transmitted to the manager terminal 600 of at least one unmanned flower vending machine 400 . The user terminal 100 may be a plurality of user terminals 100 belonging to different subjects. For example, in the spring season, if the consumption pattern of bright colors is changing to the spread of colorful and wide-ranging pastel-toned consumers, in the spring season, bright-colored pastel-toned flower products are placed at eye level. can do. For example, assume that there is an unmanned flower vending machine 400 with a total of 6 boxes, and the lines (1,1), (1,2), and (1,3) are the most conspicuous positions. In the spring season, pastel tone flower products can be placed on the (1,1), (1,2), and (1,3) lines. At this time, if the pastel tone flower products are located on the (3,1), (3,2), (3,3) line, the box itself can be moved automatically and arranged on the first line. At this time, if the box itself is configured to move, one cell may always be empty. This is because there is room for the box to move. Alternatively, boxes in each line are arranged like a conveyor belt and are pushed one by one, or boxes can be moved by twisting each axis in cube matching.

The automatic discount application unit 393 may apply a discount rate to flower products that have passed a preset time since they were stocked in at least one unmanned flower vending machine 400 so that they are automatically displayed. For example, bouquets have recently been treated with chemicals so that they do not wither easily, but those with large and thin petals tend to wither relatively quickly. In addition, since the growth conditions of flowers or plants or the maintenance period after cut flowers are different, some flowers may wither from one week after being cut, while some flowers may start to wither from the next day after being cut. Accordingly, in the case of fresh flowers, a discount rate can be applied after 24 hours, but it is not applied to all at once, but may be applied differently depending on the weather, that is, temperature and humidity, and the characteristics of each flower.

For example, cut flower quality assurance guidelines established by the University of Seoul can be used. In this study, the lifespan characteristics of major domestic cut flowers at the retail stage were investigated, and 20 items (chrysanthemum, gerbera, gladiolus, snapdragon, and dahlia) were investigated. , Delphinium, Ranunculus, Lisianthus, Lily, Solidaster, Hydrangea, Scabiosa, Stalk, Cymbidium, Alstroemeria, Rose, Carnation, Tulip, Phalaenopsis, Freesia). The cut flowers that were auctioned at the aT flower market and transported to retail stores via wholesale stores went through a sorting process and were left in a preservation solution with water (Tap water, control) and life-extending agent (Floralife 1%) added. As a result, the rose 'Hazel' , Solidaster 'Lemore' and lily 'Sorbonne' cut flower lifespans were 8.4/9.9 days, 8.4/8.8 days, and 8.8/7.8 days in the control and life-extending agent treatments, respectively. Also, in hydrangea 'Lavender' and gerbera 'Shirley', the lifespan of cut flowers was improved by treatment with the lifespan (12.9 days → 15.6 days, 4.3 days → 7.7 days). It has been confirmed that the lifespan of cut flowers is 11.5 days (production stage) and 9.9 days (retail stage), respectively. Since most bouquets are packaged with a mixture of flowers, a discount rate application date can be designated based on the flower with the shortest period, and the discount rate can be applied using this.

The image checking unit 395 may determine state information of at least one flower product in the image captured by at least one unmanned flower vending machine 400 and then apply a discount rate. Recently, in order to check the state of plants, data is segmented, extracted, and classified using image processing methods such as machine learning or deep learning, such as linear regression, SVM (Support Vector Machine), and ANN (Artificial Neural Network), which can be used. In the case of YOLO, it can quickly detect moving objects, but it is not suitable for detecting color changes or pixel changes as flowers wither. At this time, for example, a CCD camera can be used for time-sequential shooting after flowers are worn, and the captured images are analyzed by using ImageJ's Lab color for object segmentation, area setting, noise removal, image processing, and results. It can be processed by outputting values, etc. The result of digitization from the image can be extracted by displaying quantitative values for 4 indicators such as flower area, hem width, length width, and ratio, and 6 indicators such as area, hem width, length width, circumference, ratio, and firmness for withering lesions. can

A four-step process may be performed to process and analyze the image of a flower product. The first step is the data generation step, which is the step of generating an image of a flower product, and the second step is the data processing step, which cuts the acquired image to analyze it, sets the processing area, and sets the scale standard. It is a pre-processing step of setting and a processing step of extracting data based on denoising, channel separation, binarization, and processed image. The third step is the data analysis step, which compares and analyzes the withered area based on the processed and extracted data values, and compares the changing aspects over time. The fourth step is an option step, which is a step of storing domain information so that data produced during the process of data production, processing, and analysis can be re-analyzed and data accuracy verified.
