In addition, the control unit 718 outputs the language information input from the communication unit 702 to the language analysis unit 706. The control unit 718 outputs a database update request input from the communication unit 702 to the material texture DB update unit 714 or the product material DB update unit 716.
　また、制御部７１８は、通信部７０２による外部の装置との通信を制御する。具体的には、制御部７１８は、製品情報検索部７１２により特定された製品を示す情報を通信部７０２へ出力し、通信部７０２に当該製品を示す情報をユーザ端末３０へ送信させる。ユーザ端末３０は、例えば、受信した当該製品を示す情報を表示装置に表示させる。 Further, the control unit 718 controls communication with an external device by the communication unit 702. Specifically, the control unit 718 outputs information indicating the product specified by the product information search unit 712 to the communication unit 702, and causes the communication unit 702 to transmit information indicating the product to the user terminal 30. For example, the user terminal 30 causes the display device to display information indicating the received product.
　以下、例えば、製品番号Ｐ３、Ｐ５及びＰ７がそれぞれ示す製品が衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７である場合における、ユーザ端末３０側のディスプレイ３４の画面の表示の一例について説明する。図７のａに示すディスプレイ３４の画面には、ユーザＵ１により前回選択された衣類Ｄ１を示す画像が表示されている。ここで、ユーザＵ１によりマイクロフォン３２を介して入力言語情報「ふわふわ」が入力されると、入力言語情報「ふわふわ」がユーザ端末３０から製品検索用サーバ７０へ、検索情報として、送信される。抽出部７０８により質感種類言語情報として「ふわふわ」が抽出され、素材情報検索部７１０により質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」を含む素材情報が検索される。そして、製品情報検索部７１２により当該素材情報が示す素材からなる製品として衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７が特定され、通信部７０２により衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７をそれぞれ示す情報として製品番号Ｐ３、Ｐ５及びＰ７がユーザ端末３０へ送信される。 Hereinafter, for example, an example of display on the screen of the display 34 on the user terminal 30 side when the products indicated by the product numbers P3, P5, and P7 are clothes D3, D5, and D7 will be described. On the screen of the display 34 shown in FIG. 7a, an image showing the clothing D1 previously selected by the user U1 is displayed. When the user U1 inputs the input language information “fluffy” via the microphone 32, the input language information “fluffy” is transmitted from the user terminal 30 to the product search server 70 as search information. The extraction unit 708 extracts “fluffy” as the texture type language information, and the material information search unit 710 searches for material information including the texture type language information “fluffy”. The product information search unit 712 identifies clothes D3, D5, and D7 as products made of the material indicated by the material information, and the communication unit 702 uses the product numbers P3, P5, and P7 as information indicating the clothes D3, D5, and D7, respectively. Is transmitted to the user terminal 30.
　そして、図７のｂに示すように、ユーザ端末３０側のディスプレイ３４の画面には衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７を示す画像が表示される。例えば、衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７を示す画像のうちいずれかがユーザＵ１により選択されると、画面上でユーザＵ１に重畳される衣類が選択された衣類へ変更されるように構成されてもよい。それにより、所望の質感の衣類を示す画像を確認した上で購入する衣類を決定することができる。 7B, images indicating clothing D3, D5, and D7 are displayed on the screen of the display 34 on the user terminal 30 side. For example, when any one of the images indicating the clothes D3, D5, and D7 is selected by the user U1, the clothes superimposed on the user U1 on the screen may be changed to the selected clothes. . Accordingly, it is possible to determine clothes to be purchased after confirming an image showing clothes having a desired texture.
　通信部７０２は、図７を参照して説明したように、製品情報検索部７１２により特定された複数の製品を示す情報をユーザ端末３０へ送信してもよい。それにより、ユーザが所望する質感を有する製品の候補をユーザへ提供することが出来る。 As described with reference to FIG. 7, the communication unit 702 may transmit information indicating a plurality of products specified by the product information search unit 712 to the user terminal 30. Thereby, the candidate of the product which has the texture which a user desires can be provided to a user.
　また、通信部７０２は、製品情報検索部７１２により特定された複数の製品の各々の質感の程度を示す情報を当該複数の製品を示す情報に関連付けてユーザ端末３０へ送信してもよい。特定された複数の製品の各々の質感の程度を示す情報は、例えば、製品情報検索部７１２によって、製品素材ＤＢ７４２及び素材質感ＤＢ７４４を参照して、特定される。特定された当該情報は、制御部７１８へ出力された後、通信部７０２へ入力される。 Further, the communication unit 702 may transmit information indicating the degree of texture of each of the plurality of products specified by the product information search unit 712 to the user terminal 30 in association with information indicating the plurality of products. Information indicating the degree of texture of each of the specified products is specified by the product information search unit 712 with reference to the product material DB 742 and the material texture DB 744, for example. The identified information is output to the control unit 718 and then input to the communication unit 702.
　例えば、製品情報検索部７１２により衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７が特定された場合、通信部７０２は、衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７の各々の質感の程度を示す情報を製品番号Ｐ３、Ｐ５及びＰ７に関連付けてユーザ端末３０へ送信する。また、ユーザ端末３０は、受信した質感の程度を示す情報に基づいて表示を制御するように構成されてもよい。 For example, when clothing D3, D5, and D7 are specified by the product information search unit 712, the communication unit 702 associates information indicating the degree of texture of each of the clothing D3, D5, and D7 with the product numbers P3, P5, and P7. To the user terminal 30. The user terminal 30 may be configured to control display based on the received information indicating the degree of texture.
　ここで、図４に示した製品素材ＤＢ７４２のデータテーブルＴ２及び図５に示した素材質感ＤＢ７４４のデータテーブルＴ４を参照すると、製品番号Ｐ３、Ｐ５及びＰ７が示す製品の各々の質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」に対応する程度値はＰ３、Ｐ５、Ｐ７の順に高い。ユーザ端末３０は、製品番号Ｐ３、Ｐ５及びＰ７が示す製品の各々の質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」に対応する質感の程度値を通信部７０２から受信し、受信した程度値に基づいて表示を制御する。例えば、ユーザ端末３０は、図７のｂに示すように、ディスプレイ３４の画面に衣類Ｄ３、Ｄ５及びＤ７を示す画像を程度値の順に並べた状態で表示してもよい。それにより、提供された複数の製品の候補の確認を円滑に行うことができる。 Here, referring to the data table T2 of the product material DB 742 shown in FIG. 4 and the data table T4 of the material texture DB 744 shown in FIG. 5, the texture type language information “each” of the products indicated by the product numbers P3, P5 and P7. The degree values corresponding to “fluffy” are higher in the order of P3, P5, and P7. The user terminal 30 receives the texture level value corresponding to the texture type language information “fluffy” of each of the products indicated by the product numbers P3, P5, and P7 from the communication unit 702, and controls display based on the received level value. To do. For example, the user terminal 30 may display images showing clothing D3, D5, and D7 on the screen of the display 34 in the order of degree values, as shown in FIG. Accordingly, it is possible to smoothly check a plurality of product candidates provided.
　また、入力言語情報が示す質感の程度は、製品間の相対的な程度を含んでもよい。例えば、ユーザ端末３０側でユーザにより前回選択された製品の質感の程度より高い程度を示す質感程度言語情報として「もっと」が適用され得る。具体的には、図８のａに示すディスプレイ３４の画面には、ユーザＵ１により前回選択された衣類Ｄ７を示す画像が表示されている。ここで、ユーザＵ１によりマイクロフォン３２を介して入力言語情報「もっとふわふわ」が入力されると、入力言語情報「もっとふわふわ」がユーザ端末３０から製品検索用サーバ７０へ、検索情報として、送信される。 Also, the degree of texture indicated by the input language information may include a relative degree between products. For example, “more” may be applied as the texture level language information indicating the level higher than the level of the texture level of the product previously selected by the user on the user terminal 30 side. Specifically, on the screen of the display 34 shown in FIG. 8a, an image showing the clothing D7 selected last time by the user U1 is displayed. Here, when the input language information “more fluffy” is input via the microphone 32 by the user U1, the input language information “more fluffy” is transmitted from the user terminal 30 to the product search server 70 as search information. .
　そして、言語解析部７０６による解析結果に基づいて、抽出部７０８により質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報として、それぞれ「ふわふわ」及び「もっと」が抽出される。次に、素材情報検索部７１０により質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」を含み、かつ、衣類Ｄ７の質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」に対応する質感の程度値より高い程度値を有する質感情報に対応する素材情報が検索される。そして、製品情報検索部７１２により当該素材情報が示す素材からなる製品として衣類Ｄ３及びＤ５が特定され、通信部７０２により衣類Ｄ３及びＤ５をそれぞれ示す情報として製品番号Ｐ３及びＰ５がユーザ端末３０へ送信される。それにより、図８のｂに示すように、ユーザ端末３０側のディスプレイ３４の画面には衣類Ｄ３及びＤ５を示す画像が表示される。 Then, based on the analysis result by the language analysis unit 706, “fluffy” and “more” are extracted as the texture type language information and the texture level language information by the extraction unit 708, respectively. Next, the material corresponding to the texture information including the texture type language information “fluffy” by the material information search unit 710 and having a higher value than the texture value corresponding to the texture type language information “fluffy” of the clothing D7. Information is retrieved. The product information search unit 712 identifies clothes D3 and D5 as products made of the material indicated by the material information, and the communication unit 702 transmits product numbers P3 and P5 to the user terminal 30 as information indicating the clothes D3 and D5, respectively. Is done. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 8 b, images indicating the clothes D <b> 3 and D <b> 5 are displayed on the screen of the display 34 on the user terminal 30 side.
　入力言語情報が示す製品間の相対的な質感の程度に基づいて素材情報を検索することにより、入力言語情報が示す製品間の相対的な程度に基づいて製品を特定することができる。よって、より柔軟に所望の質感の製品を検索することが可能となる。 By searching for material information based on the degree of relative texture between products indicated by the input language information, the product can be specified based on the relative degree between the products indicated by the input language information. Therefore, it becomes possible to search for products having a desired texture more flexibly.

　　[２－３．応用例]
　　　（第１の応用例）
　続いて、図１２を参照して、各ユーザの感覚に基づいた製品の検索を可能とする第１の応用例に係る製品検索用サーバ７０について説明する。第１の応用例に係る製品検索用サーバ７０において、素材質感ＤＢ７４４が示す素材情報と質感との関連性は、複数のユーザごとにそれぞれ異なる。図１２は、第１の応用例に係る素材質感ＤＢ７４４におけるデータテーブルＴ９の一例を示す説明図である。データテーブルＴ９では、図５に示したデータテーブルＴ４と異なり、各行において素材情報が示す１つの素材に対して複数のユーザごとにそれぞれ異なる質感情報が紐付けられている。具体的には、データテーブルＴ９では、ユーザＡさん用の質感情報、ユーザＢさん用の質感情報及びユーザＣさん用の質感情報が示されている。各ユーザ用の質感情報は、素材情報が示す素材に対する、各ユーザの感覚に基づいた質感を示す。 [2-3. Application example]
(First application example)
Next, with reference to FIG. 12, a product search server 70 according to a first application example that enables a product search based on the sense of each user will be described. In the product search server 70 according to the first application example, the relevance between the material information and the texture indicated by the material texture DB 744 is different for each of a plurality of users. FIG. 12 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the data table T9 in the material texture DB 744 according to the first application example. In the data table T9, unlike the data table T4 shown in FIG. 5, different texture information is associated with a plurality of users for one material indicated by material information in each row. Specifically, in the data table T9, the texture information for the user A, the texture information for the user B, and the texture information for the user C are shown. The texture information for each user indicates a texture based on the sense of each user with respect to the material indicated by the material information.
　第１の応用例では、例えば、検索情報を送信するユーザ端末３０が、対象ユーザを特定するための情報を製品検索用サーバ７０へ送信することによって、製品検索用サーバ７０が対象ユーザを認識する。そして、製品検索用サーバ７０は、製品の検索において、対象ユーザ用の質感情報をデータテーブルＴ９における参照対象として設定する。ゆえに、対象ユーザによる製品の検索において、素材情報検索部７１０は、素材質感ＤＢ７４４のうち素材情報及び対象ユーザの質感情報を参照して、素材情報を検索する。よって、各ユーザにより入力された入力言語情報が示す質感に対応する素材情報を、各ユーザの感覚に基づいて検索することができる。従って、所望の質感の製品を各ユーザの感覚に基づいて検索することができる。 In the first application example, for example, the user terminal 30 that transmits the search information transmits information for specifying the target user to the product search server 70, so that the product search server 70 recognizes the target user. . Then, the product search server 70 sets the texture information for the target user as a reference target in the data table T9 in the product search. Therefore, in the product search by the target user, the material information search unit 710 searches the material information with reference to the material information and the texture information of the target user in the material texture DB 744. Therefore, the material information corresponding to the texture indicated by the input language information input by each user can be searched based on the sense of each user. Therefore, a product having a desired texture can be searched based on the sense of each user.
　なお、上記では、１つのデータテーブルにおいて素材情報と各ユーザ用の質感情報とが紐付けられている例について説明したが、素材情報と質感情報とが紐付けられた各ユーザ用のデータテーブルが複数管理されるような構成であってもよい。 In the above description, the example in which the material information and the texture information for each user are linked in one data table has been described. However, the data table for each user in which the material information and the texture information are linked is described. A configuration in which a plurality of components are managed may be used.
　　　（第２の応用例）
　上述では、素材質感ＤＢ７４４の形式がテーブル形式である例について説明したが、本開示の技術的範囲は係る例に限定されない。例えば、第２の応用例では、素材質感ＤＢ７４４の形式はマップ形式であり、素材情報検索部７１０は、素材質感ＤＢ７４４のマップを用いて、入力言語情報が示す質感に対応する素材情報を検索する。具体的には、第２の応用例では、素材質感ＤＢ７４４のマップにおいて、各素材について複数の質感の種類にそれぞれ対応する程度値が多次元の座標値としてマッピングされている。以下、図１３及び図１４を参照して、第２の応用例における素材情報検索部７１０による素材情報の検索について説明する。 (Second application example)
Although the example in which the format of the material texture DB 744 is a table format has been described above, the technical scope of the present disclosure is not limited to such an example. For example, in the second application example, the material texture DB 744 has a map format, and the material information search unit 710 searches the material information corresponding to the texture indicated by the input language information using the map of the material texture DB 744. . Specifically, in the second application example, in the map of the material texture DB 744, degree values corresponding to a plurality of texture types for each material are mapped as multidimensional coordinate values. Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 13 and FIG. 14, a search for material information by the material information search unit 710 in the second application example will be described.
　図１３は、記憶部７０４に記憶される第２の応用例に係るマップＭ１０の一例を示す説明図である。図１３に示したマップＭ１０において、横軸は質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」に対応する程度値を示し、縦軸は質感種類言語情報「固い」に対応する程度値を示す。マップＭ１０において、各素材について質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」及び質感種類言語情報「固い」にそれぞれ対応する程度値が２次元の座標値としてマッピングされている。例えば、素材情報検索部７１０は、抽出部７０８により抽出された質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報に基づいて、座標値を特定し、特定された座標値に基づいて、当該マップを用いて素材情報を検索する。 FIG. 13 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of the map M10 according to the second application example stored in the storage unit 704. In the map M10 illustrated in FIG. 13, the horizontal axis indicates the degree value corresponding to the texture type language information “fluffy”, and the vertical axis indicates the degree value corresponding to the texture type language information “hard”. In the map M10, degree values corresponding to the texture type language information “fluffy” and the texture type language information “hard” are mapped as two-dimensional coordinate values for each material. For example, the material information search unit 710 specifies coordinate values based on the texture type language information and the texture level language information extracted by the extraction unit 708, and uses the map based on the specified coordinate values to specify the material. Search for information.
　第２の応用例において、記憶部７０４は、質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報と座標値変更方向及び座標値変更量との関連性を示す質感座標値ＤＢ（データベース）を記憶する。図１４は、質感座標値ＤＢのデータテーブルＴ１０の一例を示す説明図である。データテーブルＴ１０では、各行において互いに紐付けられた質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報並びに座標値変更量が示されている。素材情報検索部７１０は、例えば、データテーブルＴ１０を参照して、入力言語情報から抽出部７０８により抽出された質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報に基づいて、座標値を特定する。 In the second application example, the storage unit 704 stores a texture coordinate value DB (database) indicating the relationship between the texture type language information and the texture level language information, the coordinate value change direction, and the coordinate value change amount. FIG. 14 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the data table T10 of the texture coordinate value DB. In the data table T10, the texture type language information, the texture level language information, and the coordinate value change amount associated with each other are shown in each row. For example, the material information search unit 710 refers to the data table T10 and specifies the coordinate value based on the texture type language information and the texture level language information extracted by the extraction unit 708 from the input language information.
　具体的には、質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報として、それぞれ「ふわふわ」及び「すごく」が抽出された場合、素材情報検索部７１０は、「ふわふわ」及び「すごく」に紐付けられた座標値変更方向及び座標値変更量に基づいて、座標値の基準値に対して横軸方向に３０増加させた座標値を特定する。ここで、座標値の基準値は、入力言語情報から抽出部７０８により質感程度言語情報が抽出されなかった場合に、素材情報検索部７１０によって、抽出された質感種類言語情報に応じて特定される座標値である。例えば、質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」に対応する座標値の基準値として、（６０，０）が適用され得る。また、入力言語情報が示す質感の程度は、製品間の相対的な程度を含んでもよい。具体的には、質感種類言語情報及び質感程度言語情報として、それぞれ「固い」及び「もっと」が抽出された場合、素材情報検索部７１０は、「固い」及び「もっと」に紐付けられた座標値変更方向及び座標値変更量に基づいて、ユーザにより前回選択された製品に対応する座標値に対して縦軸方向に３０増加させた座標値を特定する。 Specifically, when “fluffy” and “very” are extracted as the texture type language information and the texture level language information, respectively, the material information search unit 710 has coordinates coordinated with “fluffy” and “very”. Based on the value change direction and the coordinate value change amount, the coordinate value increased by 30 in the horizontal axis direction with respect to the reference value of the coordinate value is specified. Here, the reference value of the coordinate value is specified by the material information search unit 710 according to the extracted texture type language information when the texture level language information is not extracted by the extraction unit 708 from the input language information. It is a coordinate value. For example, (60, 0) can be applied as the reference value of the coordinate value corresponding to the texture type language information “fluffy”. Further, the degree of texture indicated by the input language information may include a relative degree between products. Specifically, when “hard” and “more” are extracted as the texture type language information and the texture level language information, respectively, the material information search unit 710 displays the coordinates associated with “hard” and “more”. Based on the value change direction and the coordinate value change amount, the coordinate value increased by 30 in the vertical axis direction with respect to the coordinate value corresponding to the product previously selected by the user is specified.
　素材情報検索部７１０は、例えば、図１３に示したマップＭ１０内の特定された座標値の座標にプロットされた点に対応する素材を示す情報を、入力言語情報が示す質感に対応する素材情報として検索する。また、素材情報検索部７１０は、マップＭ１０内の特定された座標値の座標に点がプロットされていない場合に、特定された座標値の座標に近い座標にプロットされた点に対応する素材を、入力言語情報が示す質感に対応する素材情報として検索してもよい。マップＭ１０においてプロットされた各点に対応する素材を示す情報は、例えば、素材構成比、密度、厚さ及び毛足の長さをそれぞれ示す情報のペアであってもよく、記憶部７０４に記憶されている。また、素材情報検索部７１０は、各点に対応する素材を示す情報を取得し得るように構成されている。 The material information search unit 710, for example, information indicating the material corresponding to the point plotted at the coordinates of the specified coordinate value in the map M10 shown in FIG. 13, the material information corresponding to the texture indicated by the input language information Search as. Further, the material information search unit 710 selects a material corresponding to a point plotted at a coordinate close to the coordinate of the specified coordinate value when the point is not plotted at the coordinate of the specified coordinate value in the map M10. Alternatively, the search may be made as material information corresponding to the texture indicated by the input language information. The information indicating the material corresponding to each point plotted in the map M10 may be, for example, a pair of information indicating the material composition ratio, the density, the thickness, and the length of the hair foot, and is stored in the storage unit 704. Has been. Moreover, the material information search part 710 is comprised so that the information which shows the material corresponding to each point can be acquired.
　第２の応用例によれば、複数の質感の種類にそれぞれ対応する程度値に基づいて素材情報を検索することができる。それにより、入力言語情報が示す複数の質感の種類にそれぞれ対応する程度値を考慮して、入力言語情報が示す質感に対応する製品を特定することができる。ゆえに、所望の質感の製品をより正確に検索することができる。 According to the second application example, the material information can be searched based on the degree values respectively corresponding to the plurality of texture types. Accordingly, it is possible to specify a product corresponding to the texture indicated by the input language information in consideration of the degree values corresponding to the plurality of texture types indicated by the input language information. Therefore, a product having a desired texture can be searched more accurately.
　なお、上記では、質感種類言語情報「ふわふわ」及び「固い」のペアに関するマップＭ１０及びデータテーブルＴ１０を用いて素材情報を検索する例について説明したが、本開示の技術的範囲は係る例に限定されない。例えば、「ふわふわ」及び「固い」のペア以外の質感種類言語情報のペアに関するマップ及び質感座標値ＤＢのデータテーブルが記憶部７０４に記憶され、当該マップ及びデータテーブルを用いて素材情報が検索されてもよい。 In the above, the example in which the material information is searched using the map M10 and the data table T10 related to the pair of the texture type language information “fluffy” and “hard” has been described, but the technical scope of the present disclosure is limited to the example. Not. For example, a map related to a texture type language information pair other than a pair of “fluffy” and “hard” and a data table of a texture coordinate value DB are stored in the storage unit 704, and material information is searched using the map and the data table. May be.
