Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
The information terminal device of the present embodiment is applied to, for example, a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or a smartphone.

First Embodiment
FIG. 1 is a view showing a configuration example of a portable terminal 10 in the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a view showing an example of the appearance of the portable terminal 10. The mobile terminal 10 includes a control unit 11, a communication unit 12, a housing orientation detection unit 13, a 3D image generation unit 14, a display control unit 15, an input control unit 16, a voice control unit 17, a keyword storage unit 18, and a personal data storage unit. 19 and a table memory 20.

The control unit 11 incorporates a known CPU, a ROM, a RAM, and the like, and the correlation control unit 31 and the search control unit 32 realized by the CPU in the control unit 11 executing a control program stored in the ROM. Have. The correlation control unit 31 (an example of a correlation degree calculation unit) calculates the degree of correlation using points described later.

The display control unit 15 controls the display of the connected display unit 25. Further, as described later, the 3D image generation unit 14 converts the image data into a 3D image and outputs the 3D image to the display control unit 15.

The input control unit 16 includes a touch input unit 26 provided on the screen of the display unit 25 for inputting various touch operations, and various keys provided on the front surface of the casing of the portable terminal 10, A key input unit 27 to be input is connected. Connected to the voice control unit 17 are a speaker 28 for emitting voice, a microphone 29 for inputting voice, and the like, which are used at the time of a call or the like.

The housing orientation detection unit 13 is configured of a gyro sensor or the like, detects the orientation of the housing of the mobile terminal 10, and notifies the control unit 11 of the detection result. The communication unit 12 is connected to a public wireless base station or a wireless LAN to perform communication.

The personal data storage unit 19 stores a personal data table 36 including a telephone directory or the like in which personal information is registered. The keyword storage unit 18 stores a keyword table 35 in which keywords used for search are registered.

In the table memory 20, there is shown a correlation rank table 21 in which the degree of correlation of an individual with respect to the owner of the portable terminal 10 is represented by points, and the frequency (communication frequency) of calls and emails A frequency table 22 is stored. Furthermore, in the table memory 20, the other's correlation table 23 used to obtain the correlation (relationship) between any two persons, and various point tables 24 described later are stored.

The details of each of these tables will be described. FIG. 3 shows an example of the personal data table 36. As shown in FIG. In the personal data table 36, items such as identification number (ID), name, photograph, group, phonebook, telephone history, mail history, telephone frequency and mail frequency are set for each individual. Further, in the phonebook, a telephone number, an e-mail address, an address, a birthday, a memo, a registration date and the like are set. The presence or absence of information is managed in the personal data table 36 so that the degree of correlation of a person who has many attribute information such as e-mail addresses other than telephone numbers, addresses, birthdays, etc. in the telephone directory is increased.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the personal data table point table. This personal data table point table is one of various point tables 24 in which the value of the point contributing to the magnitude of the degree of correlation is represented. For example, if a telephone number is registered, 10 points are given. Similarly, if an e-mail address is registered, 10 points will be awarded. The value of this point is not fixed but can be changed to an appropriate value.

Further, points are given as communication frequency information according to the telephone frequency and mail frequency in the past one year. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the frequency classified point table. This frequency classified point table is one of the various point tables 24. For example, if there are 300 calls or emails in the past year, 100 points will be awarded. In addition, 50 points will be given even if it is only once.

Further, as communication history information, points are given according to the telephone history and mail history for each past year. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the history point table. This history point table is one of various point tables 24. Here, the history of five calls and e-mails is considered, and for example, if the latest history is within one day, 50 points are given. If the previous history was within 2 days to 1 week, 18 points will be awarded. In addition, if there is a history of 4 times before within 3 months to 6 months, 2 points will be awarded.

Furthermore, points are added when the time zone or time to be searched matches in the history of five times. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the time zone classified point table. This time zone classified point table is one of the various point tables 24. In the time zone point table, morning, daytime, and nighttime zones are distinguished, and if the time zone corresponding to the time zone to be searched is in the history of 5 times, 10 points will be given each time.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the yearly historical point table. The yearly historical point table is one of various point tables 24. In the yearly historical point table, 30 points to 1 point are given, respectively, when the time to be searched, for example, within 10 days before and after the search date coincides with any of the times 1 year ago to 5 years ago.

FIG. 9 is a view showing an example of the correlation rank table 21. As shown in FIG. The correlation rank table 21 is provided with items of a rank, an identification number (ID) and a point. In the correlation rank table 21, personal identification numbers (IDs) are ranked in descending order of the number of points. That is, points for each individual are calculated from data such as data registration in the telephone directory, the latest history, frequency, etc., and the person with higher points is ranked higher in the correlation rank table 21 as the correlation degree is higher.

In the present embodiment, data for the past one year is used to determine the frequency. People who have not been in contact for a year are considered to have a low degree of correlation. However, in order to save people who always get in touch once a year, I will keep a history of the past 5 times and make it possible to know that I get in touch once a year.

In addition, when calculating points, extremely reduce the degree of correlation with people who have never been in contact, or eliminate almost any point difference between people who have contacted 100 times and those who have contacted 110 times To

Further, points are obtained in order from the first identification number (ID) of the personal data table 36 and registered in the correlation rank table 21. In addition, when the i-th identification number (ID) is registered, the IDs are inserted at positions arranged in descending order of points.

Here, the size of the correlation rank table 21 does not have to secure for the number of people registered in the telephone directory. This is because a person with a low degree of correlation can be hidden as being highly likely to be an irrelevant person even if it is displayed. Thereby, the display time of a search result can be shortened.

In addition, considering the case of searching by mail and the case of searching by phone, by separating the log or frequency of email and the log or frequency of phone, the person with a large degree of correlation in email or a large degree of correlation by phone It becomes possible to search for people.

Next, how to obtain points (1) to (5) will be described.

(1) Grant points according to the total frequency of the telephone frequency and the mail frequency. Specifically, points are given in accordance with the frequency classified point table (see FIG. 5). If the total frequency is 300 times or more, up to 100 points will be awarded.

(2) A point is given from the past five telephone call history and mail history. Specifically, points are given in accordance with the history point table (see FIG. 6). When the call history and the mail history are combined, up to 200 points are awarded.

(3) Determine the time zone between the past five telephone history and mail history. Specifically, points are given in accordance with the time zone-based point table (see FIG. 7). If all 10 histories are in the same time zone as the search time zone, a maximum of 100 points will be awarded.

(4) Determine the date of the past five telephone history and mail history. Specifically, points are awarded each year according to the same period historical point table (see FIG. 8). If there is a history at the same time of each year, give points. However, if there are two similar types of history at the same time, it will be counted once. A maximum of 122 points will be awarded if you make phone calls and emails once a year.

(5) In the personal data table (see FIG. 3) including the telephone directory, attributes such as a telephone number, an e-mail address, a group, an address, a birthday, a note, a photo, etc. are registered. Specifically, points are given in accordance with the personal data table points table (see FIG. 4). If all data are registered, up to 45 points will be awarded.

The sum of these points is used as a point representing the degree of correlation. The maximum point is 567 points which is the sum of the individual maximum points.

Next, an operation example of the portable terminal 10 having the above configuration will be described. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an example of the display operation procedure of the portable terminal 10. This processing program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 11, and when the user of the portable terminal 10 searches for a destination via the key input unit 27 or the touch input unit 26 in order to make a telephone call or a mail, It is executed by the CPU in the control unit 11.

First, the control unit 11 extracts one piece of personal data from the personal data table 36 stored in the personal data storage unit 19 (step S1). The control unit 11 gives points to the personal data based on the frequency classified point table (see FIG. 5) (step S2). Specifically, control unit 11 secures a point area of the personal data in a RAM or the like in control unit 11, and writes the point value to be added thereto.

The control unit 11 gives points to the personal data based on the history point table (see FIG. 6) (step S3). Then, the control unit 11 gives points to the personal data based on the time zone classified point table (see FIG. 7) (step S4). Then, the control unit 11 gives points based on the same period every year based on the same period history point table (see FIG. 8) (step S5). Then, based on the personal data table 36 (see FIG. 3) including the telephone directory, the control unit 11 assigns points by attribute to the personal data (step S6).

Then, the control unit 11 adds up the points given in steps S2 to S6, and adds the identification number (ID) of the personal data and the total points to the correlation rank table 21 (step S7).

Subsequently, the control unit 11 determines whether there is the next person registered in the personal data table 36 (step S8). When the next person is present, the control unit 11 returns to the process of step S1. On the other hand, when there is no next person, the control unit 11 rearranges (sorts) the correlation rank table 21 in order of points (step S9).

Then, the control unit 11 determines the floating degree based on the correlation degree using the correlation rank table 21 and registers it in the personal data table 36 on the screen of the display unit 25 so as to have a height corresponding to the correlation degree. The photograph of the face of the person who made the Thereby, the correlation degree can be easily recognized by the height of the face picture.

FIGS. 11A and 11B are diagrams showing examples of screens of the portable terminal 10 on which personal information is displayed. FIG. 11A shows the screen viewed from above, and FIG. 11B shows the screen viewed obliquely from the front.

At the center of the screen of the display unit 25, a plurality of face photographs are displayed. In the lower part of the screen, a keyword search window 25a and a period slide bar 25b are displayed. Further, at the upper, lower, left, and right ends of the screen, menu commands of "detail", "remove from search target", "mail", and "telephone" are displayed, respectively. In this 3D display, the photograph of the person included in the telephone directory is displayed with the higher the degree of correlation, the higher is displayed.

In FIG. 11, the face photographs indicated by reference numerals 1 to 6 are displayed in the order of 4> 3> 5> 2> 6> 1 in the order of rising high. Therefore, it is known to the viewer that the degree of correlation is large in this order. When making a phone call, the user may touch the photo of the person who wants to make a call and drag it to the right. In addition, when creating a mail, the user touches the picture of the person who wants to call and drags it in the left direction. Also, when it is desired to remove from the display target, the user may similarly drag the photograph of the person who wants to remove downward.

In this 3D display, it is preferable not to display all the face photographs registered in the personal data table 36 including the telephone directory on one screen, but to limit the number to the visually recognizable range. This is because the user can easily understand.

In addition, it is also possible to display a face picture on the next screen by scrolling the screen. Also, it is a matter of course that instead of floating up, a person with a smaller degree of correlation may be displayed to sink.

Moreover, if it can identify not only a face photograph but the person, the display object will not be specifically limited, such as the whole body and possessions. Moreover, in this embodiment, although it displayed by three-dimensional (3D) as a display mode, if it is displayed so that the magnitude | size of correlation degree may be known, it will not be specifically limited. For example, it may be rearranged to be displayed in the upper order in the two-dimensional order of the degree of correlation. In addition, the pictures may be displayed in a large size in descending order of the degree of correlation.

As described above, the information terminal device of the present embodiment includes the storage unit, the correlation degree calculation unit, and the display unit 25. The storage unit stores communication frequency information which is information of a plurality of contacts, communication history information which is information of communication history with the contacts, and communication frequency which is communication frequency with the contacts. The correlation degree calculation unit calculates the correlation degree with the contact based on the communication history information and the communication frequency information stored in the storage unit. The display unit 25 displays the information corresponding to the contact in the order of the correlation degree calculated by the correlation degree calculation unit.

The information terminal device is, for example, a portable terminal 10. The storage unit is, for example, a personal data storage unit 19. The correlation value calculation unit is, for example, the correlation control unit 31.

According to the information terminal device of the present embodiment, when displaying the information of an individual registered in a telephone directory or the like, the depth of the relation between the individual and the user can be easily recognized.

Second Embodiment
The portable terminal of the second embodiment has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, and therefore the description of the same configuration will be omitted by attaching the same reference numerals. Here, configurations and operations different from those of the first embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, an individual including a keyword intended by the user is advantageously displayed.

FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing an example of the display operation procedure of the portable terminal 10 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. This processing program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 11, and when the user of the portable terminal 10 searches for a destination via the key input unit 27 or the touch input unit 26 in order to make a telephone call or a mail, It is executed by the CPU in the control unit 11. Further, the search control unit 32 (an example of the search unit) in the control unit 11 searches the personal data table 36 using the keyword.

In the present embodiment, it is assumed that when searching for a destination and making a call or mail, a person having a high degree of correlation with a keyword to be searched is selected and displayed among persons having a high degree of correlation.

Based on the keyword table 35, the control unit 11 displays a list of keywords on the screen of the display unit 25 (step S21). FIG. 13 shows an example of the keyword table 35. As shown in FIG. The keyword table 35 is stored in the keyword storage unit 18. In the keyword table 35, keywords such as "friend", "company", "family" and the like are registered.

In the present embodiment, when keywords are registered in the personal data table 36 including the telephone directory, a maximum of five keywords can be registered. Moreover, it is also possible to change the keyword once registered. Also, the used keyword is registered in the personal data table 36 and also registered in the keyword table 35 at the same time. The number of registered keywords may not be five at the maximum.

In addition, when a keyword is searched via the keyword search window 25a (see FIG. 11) described above, only the keywords registered in the keyword table 35 are effective for the search. For example, when entering a keyword in the keyword search window 25a, a pull-down menu (keyword list) is displayed, and means for selecting a keyword can be used. In addition, by having the dictionary function, it is also possible to search for synonyms of registered keywords.

The degree of correlation of the individual containing the retrieved keyword is judged to be high, and if the keyword is contained, for example, the individual is given the same 100 points as the maximum point of the frequency. FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of the personal data table 36 of the present embodiment. Unlike the first embodiment, five keywords are registered in the personal data table 36 for each individual.

First, the control unit 11 displays a keyword list based on the keyword table 35 (step S21). Then, the control unit 11 acquires the keyword selected by the user from the keyword list (step S22).

Subsequently, the control unit 11 extracts one piece of personal data from the personal data table 36 (step S23). Then, the control unit 11 determines whether a keyword is registered in the extracted personal data (step S24). When the keyword is registered, the control unit 11 gives 100 points to this individual (step S25). On the other hand, when the keyword is not registered, the control unit 11 does not give points to this individual (step S26).

After the processing of steps S25 and S26, the control unit 11 performs the processing of steps S27 to S35, which is the same processing as steps S2 to S10 in the first embodiment, and ends the present processing. The description of the processes of steps S27 to S35 is omitted.

Thus, the information terminal device of the present embodiment includes a search unit that searches for information of a plurality of contact points using a keyword. Further, the contact information stored in the storage unit has a keyword. In addition, when the information on the contact having the keyword searched by the search unit exists in the storage unit, the correlation degree calculation unit increases the correlation degree of the contact. The search unit is, for example, the search control unit 32.

According to the information terminal device of this embodiment, personal information including a keyword intended by the user can be advantageously displayed.

Third Embodiment
The portable terminal of the third embodiment has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, and thus the description of the same configuration will be omitted by attaching the same reference numerals. Here, configurations and operations different from those of the first embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, an individual with a high degree of correlation is advantageously displayed at each time.

FIGS. 15A and 15B are diagrams showing examples of screens of the portable terminal 10 on which personal information is displayed. FIG. 15A shows an example of the screen viewed from above, and FIG. 15B shows an example of the screen viewed obliquely from the front. The time slide bar 25b is displayed on the screen of the display unit 25 as described above. When the user slides the time slide bar 25b to the left and right via the touch input unit 26 or the key input unit 27 to specify a time, the control unit 11 searches for individuals having a large degree of correlation at each time. For example, it is possible to specify a time in the range from the present to ten years ago. The operation in which the control unit 11 receives the designation of the time via the time slide bar 25 b corresponds to an example of the time designation unit.

Further, in the central portion of the screen of the display unit 25, a face photograph of an individual having a high degree of correlation is displayed, for example, in front of the designated time. Further, in the central portion of the screen of the display unit 25, for example, a face photograph of an individual whose degree of correlation is larger in the past than the designated time is displayed facing left. Further, in the central part of the screen of the display unit 25, a face photograph of an individual having a large degree of correlation is displayed, for example, rightward from the designated time to the present (future). Also, by sliding the time slide bar 25b, changes in the degree of correlation can be confirmed along the time series.

FIGS. 16A and 16B show examples of the frequency table by period 22 and the correlation rank table 21. FIG. As shown in FIG. 16A, the magnitude of the degree of correlation of each period is determined with reference to the frequency table by period 22. In the frequency-by-period table 22, individuals with high communication frequency are registered for each period. For example, each person (ID) is registered in descending order of the frequency of telephone calls and mails in 2005-2010.

Further, as shown in FIG. 16B, the correlation rank table 21 is provided with items of a designated time point, a past point and a future point. These items are given points according to the communication frequency for each period in the frequency-by-period table 22. Further, when the designated time point, the past point and the number of future points are the same, the most frequent communication time is determined according to the designated time> future> past priority.

Further, the designated time point, the past point, and the future point are used for control of determining the direction of the face displayed on the screen of the display unit 25. On the other hand, the points in the correlation rank table 21 are used for control to determine the height of the face displayed on the screen.

FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing an example of the display operation procedure of the portable terminal 10 in the third embodiment of the present invention. This processing program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 11, and when the user of the portable terminal 10 searches for a destination via the key input unit 27 or the touch input unit 26 in order to make a telephone call or a mail, It is executed by the CPU in the control unit 11.

First, the control unit 11 acquires the time designated by the user via the time slide bar 25b displayed on the screen of the display unit 25 (step S41). Then, the control unit 11 extracts one piece of personal data from the personal data table 36 stored in the personal data storage unit 19 (step S42).

The control unit 11 checks the frequency of the designated time of the extracted individual from the frequency table by period 22 (step S43). Then, the control unit 11 determines the point of the designated time from the frequency of the designated time, and assigns it to the correlation rank table 21 (step S44). Further, the control unit 11 determines the past points from the past frequency from the designated time, and assigns the points to the correlation rank table 21 (step S45). Furthermore, the control unit 11 determines future points from the frequency of the future from the designated time, and assigns the future points to the correlation rank table 21 (step S46).

Subsequently, the control unit 11 determines the direction of the face photograph of the individual displayed on the screen of the display unit 25 from the designated time point, the past point, and the future point (step S47).

After the processing of step S47, the control unit 11 performs the processing of steps S48 to S56, which is the same processing as the steps S2 to S10 in the first embodiment, and ends the present processing. The description of the processes of steps S48 to S56 is omitted.

As described above, the information processing apparatus according to the present embodiment includes the timing designation unit that designates the timing. The correlation degree calculation unit is configured such that the first communication frequency which is the communication frequency of the time designated by the time designation unit, the second communication frequency which is the communication frequency of the past from the designated time, and the designated time to the present The degree of correlation with the contact point is calculated according to the third communication frequency which is the communication frequency. The display unit 25 displays information corresponding to the contact according to which of the first communication frequency, the second communication frequency, and the third communication frequency is the maximum communication frequency. The timing designation unit is, for example, the control unit 11.

According to the information terminal device of the present embodiment, it is possible to advantageously display an individual with a large degree of correlation at each time.

Fourth Embodiment
The portable terminal of the fourth embodiment has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, and therefore the description of the same configuration will be omitted by attaching the same reference numerals. Here, configurations and operations different from those of the first embodiment will be described. In the fourth embodiment, information on an individual related to the specified individual is displayed in an advantageous manner by the user.

FIGS. 18A and 18B are diagrams showing examples of screens of the portable terminal 10 on which personal information is displayed. FIG. 18A shows an example of the screen viewed from above, and FIG. 18B shows an example of the screen viewed obliquely from the front. For example, when the user touches a face picture indicated by reference numeral 5, the degree of correlation of an individual related to the individual is increased to make the face picture appear floating. Here, an individual having a relationship with the touched individual is an individual having a common keyword other than the keywords registered in the personal data table 36 as the related individual. The process of specifying an individual touched by the control unit 11 via the touch input unit 26 corresponds to an example of the contact designation unit.

FIG. 19 is a view showing an example of the other person correlation table 23. The other's correlation table 23 is used to obtain correlation between any two people, and personal IDs are assigned to rows and columns. In each individual column, keywords common to other individuals are registered. In addition, in the field of each individual, the number of times that any two persons are simultaneously included in one mail address is recorded.

FIG. 20 is a diagram showing an example of another person's correlation point table. If there is a common keyword in the other's correlation point table, 100 points will be awarded. If there are three common keywords, 3 x 100 points will be awarded. If the number of times included in the destination is 50 or more, 200 points are awarded. Similarly, if the number of times included in the destination is 30 or more and less than 50, 150 points are awarded.

In this way, the point determined using the other's correlation point table is given to the individual correlated with the touched individual. Also, among the points obtained, the maximum points are given to the touched individual.

FIG. 21 is a flowchart showing an example of the display operation procedure of the portable terminal 10 in the fourth embodiment of the present invention. This processing program is stored in the ROM in the control unit 11, and when the user of the portable terminal 10 searches for a destination via the key input unit 27 or the touch input unit 26 in order to make a telephone call or a mail, It is executed by the CPU in the control unit 11.

First, the control unit 11 specifies an individual who wants to obtain the correlation touched by the user among the face photographs of the individual displayed on the screen of the display unit 25 (step S61). Then, the control unit 11 extracts one person from the other person correlation table 23 (step S62).

Subsequently, when the extracted one person has the same keyword as the touched individual, the control unit 11 gives points to this person (the touched individual) (step S63). Further, the control unit 11 gives points in accordance with the number of times included in the mail of the same address as the extracted one person (step S64). Then, the control unit 11 adds the obtained points to the correlation rank table 21 (step S65).

Subsequently, the control unit 11 determines whether there is a next person in the personal data table 36 (step S66). If there is a next person, the control unit 11 returns to the process of step S62.

On the other hand, when there is no next person, the control unit 11 rearranges (sorts) the correlation rank table 21 in order of points (step S67). Then, using the correlation rank table 21, the control unit 11 causes the screen of the display unit 25 to display the face photograph of the person registered in the personal data table 36 including the telephone directory in three dimensions (3D) (step S68). After this, the control unit 11 ends the present process.
Further, the points assigned in the first to third embodiments may be added to the correlation rank table 21.

As described above, the information processing apparatus of the present embodiment includes the contact designation unit that designates at least one of the plurality of contacts. The degree-of-correlation calculation unit increases the degree of correlation of other contacts associated with the contact designated by the contact designation unit. The contact designation unit is, for example, the control unit 11.

According to the information terminal device of the fourth embodiment, it is possible to advantageously display information of an individual related to the individual designated by the user. In the present embodiment, one individual is specified, and the degree of correlation between the individual and another is used, but a plurality of individuals are specified instead of one, and the degree of correlation between each of the plurality of individuals and the other is used.

According to the information terminal device of the present embodiment, the display mode of the personal information displayed on the screen can be changed depending on whether the case of the portable terminal 10 is in landscape orientation or in portrait orientation. Therefore, even if the user remembers only the face but does not remember the name, or even if only the name remembers but not remember the face, it is possible to easily recognize the degree of correlation with that person .

In the case of the portrait orientation and the landscape orientation, different keywords may be searched through the keyword search window 25a. For example, in the case of portrait orientation, by searching with the keyword "company", the name of an individual whose keyword is the company is displayed on the screen. On the other hand, in the case of landscape orientation, by searching with the keyword "friend", an individual's face photograph that uses the friend as a keyword is displayed on the screen.
