<Network configuration including device control support device>
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram of a network configuration example including a device control support device 10 according to the present embodiment.

装置 As the device control support device 10 of the present embodiment, a device that manages and operates a so-called recipe posting site is assumed. The device control support device 10 illustrated here is a Web server that publishes the above-described recipe posting site on a network 1 such as the Internet.

レシピ On the recipe posting site opened by the device control support apparatus 10, various people, regardless of famous or unnamed or professional amateurs, post their recipes. Similarly, various persons access and browse recipes of a genre necessary for themselves or a favorite poster. Although the data format of the recipe to be posted or viewed is not limited, a recipe in, for example, an MRR (Machine Readable Recipe) format can be mainly assumed.

The recipe in the MRR format is a recipe that can be read by a cooking appliance such as a microwave oven (a kitchen home appliance 30 described later). On the other hand, a recipe having a mixture of qualitative expressions and quantitative expressions and having human readability is referred to as an HRR (Human Readable Recipe) recipe.

In the case of conventional recipes such as the HRR format described above, even a single cooking operation is often described in various different ways depending on the contributor, and even if this is set in a cooking appliance, the cooking accuracy is unstable. It is easy to become something. Thus, the MRR-type recipe is one in which the description, spelling fluctuation, grammatical error, and the like, which may exist in the conventional recipe and have no relation to the cooking operation, are eliminated.

Such a recipe in the MRR format is represented as data (eg, a graph (directed graph)) including a plurality of nodes and edges between the nodes. In this graph, a plurality of nodes define a state transition of each material, and edges represent actions required for a state transition between nodes. Table 1 shows the types of the above nodes.

Each node can be given an attribute shown in Table 2, for example, as an attribute of the node. Here, it is assumed that the node is a material node, and this material node represents “carrot”.

Further, each edge can be given an attribute shown in Table 3 as an attribute of the edge.

アクション Note that the above-mentioned action refers to a basic procedure of cooking, and for example, a procedure such as “cut” or “warm” corresponds to the action. The action includes a specific set temperature of the device, a cooking time, a work content, and the like.

Here, a specific example of each node will be described. When a dish “salad” is made, the dish node is “salad”. The material nodes are, for example, “onion”, “cucumber”, “tomato”, “ketchup”, and “mayonnaise”. Each material node is given an ID that uniquely identifies the material.

The material node “onion” is connected to the intermediate node “chopped onion” by “cut” which is an edge (action). Further, the material node “cucumber” is connected to the intermediate node “1 cm square cucumber” by “cut” which is an edge (action). Further, the material node "tomato" is connected to the intermediate node "1/2 tomato" by "cut" which is an edge (action). Furthermore, the material node “ketchup” and the material node “mayonnaise” are connected to the intermediate node “Aurora Source” by the edge (action) “mix”. Note that an ID that uniquely identifies an action is assigned to each of “cut” and “mix”.

The intermediate nodes “chopped onion”, “1 cm square cucumber”, and “1/2 tomato” are connected to the cooking node “salad” by “apply” which is an edge (action). The intermediate node “Aurora source” is connected to the cooking node “salad” by the edge (action) “kake”. Note that an ID for uniquely identifying an action is assigned to each of “arrange” and “apply”. In addition, the order between edges is set so that “apply” is performed next to “place”. It should be noted that an action of “daring” may be used instead of “apply”.

As described above, when the state transition of each material is expressed as a graph, a material ID for uniquely identifying the material is assigned to each material, and an action ID for uniquely identifying the action is assigned to each action required for the state transition. Has been granted. Therefore, the machine can easily and reliably decode the recipe information based on the ID. Further, since it is not always necessary to specify a device to perform an action in the recipe information, it is easy to cope with various devices including new devices appearing in the future. Furthermore, since each action is represented as an edge, it is easy to extract each action from the recipe information.

ユーザ Also, the user of the recipe posting site can be both a contributor and a viewer at will, but in the following description, for convenience, these contributors and viewers are collectively referred to as users. Therefore, in addition to the device control support device 10, user terminals 20 of a poster and a viewer are communicably connected to the network 1 illustrated in FIG.
