Hereinafter, various embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below may be modified and implemented in various different forms. In order to more clearly describe the characteristics of the embodiments, detailed descriptions of matters widely known to those of ordinary skill in the art to which the following embodiments belong are omitted. In addition, in the drawings, parts irrelevant to the description of the embodiments are omitted, and similar reference numerals are attached to similar parts throughout the specification.

Throughout the specification, when a component is said to be "connected" with another component, it includes not only the case where it is 'directly connected', but also the case where it is 'connected with another component in between'. In addition, when a component "includes" a component, it means that other components may be further included, rather than excluding other components, unless otherwise stated.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, the meaning of terms frequently used in this specification is defined.

“Matching application” means an application that provides a service that helps match between members who have signed up for it.

“Matching” means a connection between two or more different people. That is, matching is a concept that includes not only one person finding another person through a matching application and connecting with each other, but also selecting and connecting members who are suitable for each other by using a matching algorithm by the matching application. Therefore, 'recommend matching' has the same meaning as 'recommend the other party'.

The ‘matching service’ provided on the matching application means an individual service that recommends matching in consideration of various characteristics. That is, in the embodiments described below, it is assumed that one matching application supports a plurality of matching services, and each matching service performs matching among members according to different criteria. By subscribing to a desired matching service from among a plurality of matching services, the user may be recommended matching by the corresponding matching service.

Terms not defined above will be defined below whenever necessary.

1 is a diagram illustrating a system for recommending a counterpart through a matching application according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 1 , a matching recommendation system according to an embodiment may include a server 100 and a plurality of terminals 10 , 20 , 30 , and 40 . A matching application is installed on each of the terminals 10, 20, 30, and 40, and the users 1, 2, 3, 4 use the matching application through the corresponding terminals 10, 20, 30, 40, respectively. Assume that you are registered as a member and logged in.

Although the matching application is installed in each of the terminals 10 , 20 , 30 , and 40 , a significant portion of data processing related to the execution of the matching application may be performed by the server 100 . That is, the matching application installed on the terminals 10 , 20 , 30 , 40 provides a UI for service use to the users 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 , and the actual process for matching between members is a server (100) may be in the form performed. Of course, it is also possible to implement a substantial portion of the actual process for matching in the matching application installed in each of the terminals (10, 20, 30, 40).

Although the matching recommendation system is illustrated as including one server 100 in FIG. 1 , the matching recommendation system may be configured to include two or more servers. When the matching recommendation system is configured to include two or more servers, a plurality of servers may divide roles or operations performed by the server 100 described below. For example, the matching recommendation system may be configured to include a server serving as a database in which information for matching recommendation is stored, and a server that performs arithmetic processing for matching recommendation using such information, and in addition to various combinations It may consist of servers of

Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, it is assumed that a counterpart to be recommended to user A(1) is selected from among the remaining users 2, 3, and 4, and a detailed process for recommending a counterpart will be described in detail with reference to other drawings below. do.

2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a matching recommendation apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment. The matching recommendation apparatus shown in FIG. 2 corresponds to the server 100 shown in FIG. 1 . Referring to FIG. 2 , the server 100 according to an embodiment may include a communication unit 110 , a control unit 120 , and a storage unit 130 . As described above, when the matching recommendation system is configured to include two or more servers, each of the plurality of servers includes the same configuration as the server 100 shown in FIG. 2 or includes only a part of the configuration of the server 100 . You may.

The communication unit 110 is a configuration for transmitting and receiving data with the plurality of terminals 10 , 20 , 30 , and 40 , and may support various wired and wireless communication protocols for this purpose. For example, the communication unit 110 may be implemented in the form of a communication chipset that supports at least one of communication methods such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Ethernet.

The controller 120 controls the overall operation of the server 100 as a configuration including at least one processor such as a CPU. The controller 120 recommends matching to members who have subscribed to the matching application by executing a program stored in the storage 130, which will be described later, and performs an operation necessary to make the recommendation. In recommending matching to a user, the controller 120 extracts a candidate pool to search for a counterpart to be recommended based on a matching service subscribed to by the user, and selects a matching algorithm to be used for matching. A detailed process by which the controller 120 recommends matching based on the matching service subscribed to by the user will be described in detail below with reference to other drawings.

Various types of programs and data may be stored in the storage unit 130 . In particular, the storage unit 130 may store programs and data necessary for recommending matching to members through a matching application installed in the terminals 10 , 20 , 30 , and 40 . For example, the storage unit 130 may store matching algorithms corresponding to a plurality of matching services, and also include basic information such as age, gender, address, and interests of members, matching conditions set by members (when matching is recommended) Standard conditions - for example, limiting the age range of the other party), members' subscription information (which matching service they are subscribed to), etc. may be stored.

3 to 5 are diagrams for explaining a process of recommending a counterpart according to a matching service subscribed by a user in a matching application according to an embodiment.

As described above, the matching application according to an embodiment may support a plurality of matching services, and each matching service may perform matching according to unique characteristics or criteria. According to one embodiment, the matching service includes 'value blind date' that matches based on the values that members have, 'wedding matching' that arranges a meeting on the premise of marriage, and 'constellation' that matches based on the constellations of members 'Matching', 'four weeks and arms matching' that matches based on the members' four weeks, '1:1 real-time video matching' that connects members who want video chat in real time, '1:1 disposition matching', which matches members on a one-to-one basis based on propensity, and 'multi-party voice matching', which matches members so that multiple members can have voice chatting at the same time, may be included. In addition, various characteristics or It is possible to provide a matching service according to the criteria.

The user may select and subscribe to a desired matching service, and may receive a matching recommendation by the subscribed matching service. According to an embodiment, the matching service may be provided in the form of an app-in-app within the matching application, and the user may subscribe to the matching service corresponding to the corresponding app-in-app by following the app-in-app. In addition, in order for a user to easily find and subscribe to a desired matching service, the matching application may classify and provide the matching service by category.

3 illustrates an example in which four users 1, 2, 3, and 4 subscribe to a desired matching service, respectively. In FIG. 3 , it is assumed that three matching services such as wedding matching 310 , 1:1 propensity matching 320 , and multi-party voice matching 330 are provided through a matching application.

Referring to FIG. 3 , user A(1) subscribes to wedding matching 310 and 1:1 disposition matching 320, and user B(2) subscribes to wedding matching 310 and 1:1 disposition matching 320 , user C(3) subscribes to wedding matching 310, and user D(4) subscribes to 1:1 propensity matching 320 and multiparty voice matching 330.

A detailed process in which the controller 120 of the server 100 recommends matching to the user A(1) based on the matching service subscribed to will be described as follows.

The controller 120 may recommend matching to the user A(1) based on the wedding matching 310 and the 1:1 propensity matching 320 . The controller 120 may select and recommend at least one member by determining a candidate pool corresponding to each matching service, and applying a matching algorithm prepared in advance for each matching service to members included in the determined candidate pool. Alternatively, the controller 120 may select and recommend at least one member by determining a candidate pool for each user who wants to provide a matching recommendation, and applying a matching algorithm prepared in advance for each matching service to members included in the determined candidate pool. there is.

4 shows an example in which candidate exits are extracted according to a user's preference setting, that is, a matching condition set in advance by the user. Referring to FIG. 4 , there is an entire candidate pool 400 including all members who have subscribed to the matching application, and at least some of them are extracted as a candidate pool 410 for each user corresponding to user A ( 1 ). do. In this case, a method of extracting the candidate pool 410 for each user from the entire candidate pool 400 will be described as follows. User A(1) may set a desired matching condition in advance. For example, if user A (1) has set the matching conditions in advance so that a member whose location is within 3 km and who is between 25 and 30 years old is recommended, the control unit 120 controls the members included in the entire candidate pool 400 . Among them, a candidate pool 410 for each user is extracted to include only members who satisfy the above distance condition and age condition. When the candidate pool 410 for each user is extracted, the control unit 120 applies a matching algorithm prepared in advance for each matching service subscribed by the user A(1) to the candidate pool 410 for each user corresponding to the user A(1). You can choose who to recommend. Algorithms corresponding to each matching service may be designed to enable matching reflecting the characteristics of each matching service and stored in advance in the storage unit 130 .

5 shows an example in which a candidate pool is extracted for each matching service. Referring to FIG. 5 , the control unit 120 extracts a candidate pool corresponding to each matching service from the entire candidate pool 400 including all members or the candidate pool 410 for each user corresponding to user A(1). can The control unit 120 extracts a wedding matching candidate pool 510 for the wedding matching 310 and applies a wedding matching algorithm to the wedding matching candidate pool 510 to select a partner to recommend to the user A(1). . In addition, the controller 120 extracts a 1:1 propensity matching candidate pool 520 for the 1:1 propensity matching 320 and applies a 1:1 propensity matching algorithm to the 1:1 propensity matching candidate pool 520 . By doing so, it is possible to select a counterpart to be recommended to the user A(1). Algorithms corresponding to each matching service may be designed to enable matching reflecting the characteristics of each matching service and stored in advance in the storage unit 130 .

Meanwhile, although FIG. 5 illustrates an example in which the candidate pools of the two matching services do not overlap each other, the candidate pools corresponding to different matching services may include the same member at the same time.

A detailed method for the controller 120 to determine a corresponding candidate pool for each matching service will be described as follows. Before performing matching by a specific matching service, the controller 120 may extract at least some of all members of the matching application as a candidate pool based on the matching service.

In this case, the controller 120 may extract a candidate pool based on the characteristics of the matching service. For example, if the control unit 120 is to perform matching by the wedding matching 310, members who are not of celibacy among members who are of marriageable age (the range can be appropriately set by the administrator) are candidates. It can be extracted with grass. That is, with respect to the wedding matching 310, the controller 120 may extract members who have an intention to marry and have realistic conditions for getting married in the near future as a candidate pool. It can be done in a way that analyzes information about members in various ways. In other words, the controller 120 may extract a candidate pool based on the characteristics of a specific matching service by analyzing information about members in various ways.

As a specific method in which the controller 120 extracts the candidate pool based on the matching service, the controller 120 may extract members subscribed to the same matching service as the candidate pool. This is because, if different members are subscribing to the same matching service, they are the most appropriate target for providing a recommendation by the matching service. For example, when recommending matching by the wedding matching 310 to the user A (1) in FIG. 3 , the controller 120 controls the user B(2) and the user C(3) who are subscribing to the wedding matching 310 in FIG. 3 . can be extracted as a candidate pool. Also, for example, in FIG. 3 , when recommending matching by the 1:1 propensity matching 320 to the user A 1 , the controller 120 controls the user B 2 subscribing to the 1:1 propensity matching 320 . ) and user D(4) can be extracted as a candidate pool.

Of course, as described above, if the control unit 120 extracts a candidate pool based on the characteristics of the matching service, user C (3) who is not subscribing to the 1:1 propensity matching 320 in FIG. 3 also has a 1:1 propensity. It may be included in the candidate pool for the matching 320 , and the controller 120 may determine whether to include the candidate pool by analyzing information on the user C(3).

6 shows an example in which the controller 120 recommends matching to the user A(1) by applying a matching algorithm corresponding to the wedding matching 310 . Referring to FIG. 6 , with respect to members subscribed to the wedding matching 310 , information necessary for introduction on the premise of marriage may be stored in advance in the storage unit 130 . For example, as shown in FIG. 6 , information on each user's gender, age, and residential area is stored in advance and may be used during wedding matching 310, in addition to conditions such as the user's height, academic background, occupation, annual salary, etc. This may be additionally stored and used during wedding matching 310 . The controller 120 may select a partner to be recommended to the user A 1 by applying the wedding matching algorithm to the members included in the wedding matching candidate pool 410 . For example, the control unit 120 compares information about user A ( 1 ) (eg, gender, age, and region of residence) with information on users ( 2 , 3 ) included in the wedding matching candidate pool 410 . This will help you find the combination that works best for you. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 , user A ( 1 ) is closer to user B ( 2 ) than to user C ( 3 ) in consideration of age and region of residence, so the controller 120 controls user B ( 2 ). It can be selected and recommended to user A(1).

In addition, the matching algorithm for each matching service may be designed in various ways to reflect the characteristics of the corresponding matching service well.

A detailed method for the control unit 120 to recommend the counterpart selected by the matching service to the user is as follows. For example, if the control unit 120 determines to recommend the user B(2) to the user A(1) by the wedding matching 310, the terminal 10 of the user A(1) through the communication unit 110 ) and data, it is possible to display a guide to the effect that 'User B has been recommended through wedding matching' on the UI screen of the matching application being executed on the terminal 10 .

With reference to FIGS. 8 and 9 , the UI screen of the matching application displayed on the terminals 10 , 20 , 30 and 40 will be described in detail. 8 to 9 are diagrams illustrating a UI screen displayed in a matching application according to an exemplary embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 8 , information on a matching service subscribed to by the user is displayed in area 810 of the first screen 800 . In area 810, icons corresponding to matching services subscribed to by the user are arranged. The user may use the corresponding matching service by selecting any one of the icons displayed in the area 810 . Also, by selecting area 811, the user may check information on matching services subscribed to by the user and matching services that can be additionally subscribed to.

In area 820 of the first screen 800, information (photo, nickname, age, location, etc.) of the counterpart recommended by the matching service is displayed. In area 821 of area 820, the type of matching service used for recommendation (constellation matching) is displayed, and in area 822, a factor (Taurus) considered when applying the matching algorithm is displayed. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 , since the other party is recommended through constellation matching, it can be seen that the matching algorithm is applied in consideration of the member's constellation.

On the other hand, the matching application may provide a UI screen that promotes the matching service to the user and allows the user to subscribe to the matching service immediately. Referring to FIG. 9 , an object for promoting a specific matching service (constellation matching) is displayed in area 910 of the second screen 900 . In the 911 area, information on the characteristics of the matching service along with the name of the matching service was written, and at the same time information on how many members are currently subscribing to the matching service is also displayed. After checking this information, if the user wants to use the matching service, he or she can subscribe to the constellation matching by clicking the 'follow' button created in the 910 area.

As described above, the control unit 120 of the server 100 according to an embodiment determines a candidate pool, a solution, and an algorithm for searching a counterpart to be recommended based on a matching service subscribed to by the user, so that the user's various needs are met. It can be expected that the effect of providing a sophisticated matching that is reflected is expected.

In step 703 , the controller 120 selects at least one counterpart matching the user from the candidate pool by applying a matching algorithm corresponding to the at least one identified matching service. In this case, the matching algorithm corresponding to each matching service refers to an algorithm designed to match the counterpart by reflecting the characteristics of the matching service.

In step 704 , the controller 120 recommends at least one selected counterpart to the user. A specific method for the controller 120 to recommend the counterpart selected by the matching service to the user through the user's terminal has been described above with reference to FIG. 8 .
