Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a consideration calculation system 1 and a consideration calculation device 3 according to an embodiment. In FIG. 1, user Ua is a person for whom consideration is to be calculated. User Ua obtains a place 30 to work or study by paying a first consideration.

[0012] For example, user Ua pays a workplace usage fee to a company where he wants to work and obtains a workplace 30. As the workplace 30, user Ua may actually go to that place to work, or user Ua may perform telework. There may be other persons Ub, Uc other than user Ua at the workplace 30.

[0013] For example, user Ua pays a learning fee to a school where he wants to study and obtains a study place 30. As the study place 30, user Ua may actually go to that place to study, or user Ua may perform online learning. There may be other persons Ub, Uc other than user Ua at the study place 30.

[0014] Hereinafter, when the workplace 30 and the study place 30 are not particularly distinguished, they are simply referred to as place 30.

[0015] User Ua wears a biosensor 31 such as a wristwatch type. The biosensor 31 measures the biological data of user Ua. The biological data is, for example, heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, electroencephalogram, etc. The biological data of user Ua measured by the biosensor 31 is transmitted to the information collection device 5 by, for example, a mobile communication device (such as a smartphone) carried by user Ua, in association with the identification information (user ID_Ua) of user Ua.

[0016] At location 30, a camera 32 is provided to photograph user Ua and others Ub, Uc present at location 30. The camera 32 is a camera capable of photographing a video in which the facial expressions of user Ua and others Ub, Uc present at location 30 can be discriminated by image recognition. The video data photographed by the camera 32 is transmitted to the information collection device 5 via a communication line provided at location 30, associated with user ID_Ua.

[0017] At location 30, a microphone 33 is provided to pick up the voices of user Ua and others Ub, Uc present at location 30. The microphone 33 can record the conversation between user Ua and others Ub, Uc. The voice data recorded by the microphone 33 is transmitted to the information collection device 5 via a communication line provided at location 30, associated with user ID_Ua.

[0018] The information collection device 5 receives the biological data, video data, and voice data associated with user ID_Ua, and records the received biological data, video data, and voice data in association with user ID_Ua. In addition, the information collection device 5 acquires first consideration information indicating the first consideration paid by user Ua, and records the acquired first consideration information in association with user ID_Ua. The first consideration information may be acquired from user Ua, or may be acquired from a company, school, etc. to which the first consideration has been paid by user Ua.

[0019] The consideration calculation device 3 communicates with the information collection device 5 via a communication network NW such as the Internet, for example. The consideration calculation device 3 receives from the information collection device 5 the biological data, video data, voice data, and first consideration information associated with user ID_Ua.

[0020] Hereinafter, the data and information associated with user ID_Ua may be referred to as the data and information of user Ua.

[0021] The consideration calculation device 3 includes an information reception unit 11, a satisfaction estimation unit 12, a consideration calculation unit 13, a settlement unit 14, and a notification unit 15.

[0022] Each function of the consideration calculation device 3 is realized by the consideration calculation device 3 including computer hardware such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and a memory, and the CPU executing a computer program stored in the memory. Note that the consideration calculation device 3 may be configured using a general-purpose computer device, or may be configured as a dedicated hardware device. For example, the consideration calculation device 3 may be configured using a server computer connected to a communication network such as the Internet. Also, each function of the consideration calculation device 3 may be realized by cloud computing. Further, the consideration calculation device 3 may be realized by a single computer, or the functions of the consideration calculation device 3 may be realized by being distributed among a plurality of computers. Also, as the consideration calculation device 3, for example, it may be configured to open a website using a WWW system or the like.

[0023] The information reception unit 11 receives various types of information. For example, the information reception unit 11 receives biometric data, video data, audio data, and first consideration information of the user Ua received from the information collection device 5. The biometric data of the user Ua is an example of the user state data of the user Ua. The video data of the user Ua is an example of the user state data of the user Ua. The audio data of the user Ua is an example of the user state data of the user Ua. The user state data of the user Ua is data indicating the state of the user Ua at the place 30 where the user Ua works or studies after paying the first consideration to obtain the place 30.

[0024] The satisfaction estimation unit 12 estimates the satisfaction of the user Ua based on the user state data of the user Ua.

[0025] The consideration calculation unit 13 calculates a second consideration to be paid to the user Ua based on the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua by the satisfaction estimation unit 12. The second consideration calculation formula is set in advance in the consideration calculation device 3. The second consideration calculation formula is a calculation formula that calculates the second consideration using at least the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua. For example, the second consideration calculation formula may be a calculation formula in which the higher the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua, the more the second consideration is calculated.

[0026] The settlement unit 14 calculates a third consideration for the user Ua based on the first consideration indicated by the first consideration information of the user Ua and the calculation result of the second consideration of the user Ua by the consideration calculation unit 13. The third consideration for the user Ua can be both positive and negative depending on the magnitude relationship between the first consideration of the user Ua and the second consideration of the user Ua. For example, when the calculation formula for the third consideration is "third consideration = second consideration - first consideration", the third consideration is a positive value when "first consideration < second consideration", the third consideration is a negative value when "first consideration > second consideration", and the third consideration is 0 when "first consideration = second consideration".

[0027] The notification unit 15 notifies the user Ua of the third consideration of the user Ua. For example, the notification unit 15 may transmit, to the user Ua, third consideration information indicating the third consideration of the user Ua by e-mail or the like. For example, the notification unit 15 may post the third consideration of the user Ua on a web page that can be viewed only by the user Ua.

[0028] Next, with reference to FIG. 2, the consideration calculation method according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing an example of the procedure of the consideration calculation method according to the present embodiment.

[0029] (Step S1) The consideration calculation device 3 receives the first consideration information and the user state data of the user Ua.

[0030] (Step S2) The consideration calculation device 3 estimates the satisfaction of the user Ua based on the user state data of the user Ua.

[0031] (Step S3) The consideration calculation device 3 calculates a second consideration to be paid to the user Ua based on the estimated result of the satisfaction of the user Ua.

[0032] (Step S4) The consideration calculation device 3 settles accounts with the first consideration and the second consideration of the user Ua, and calculates a third consideration for the user Ua.

[0033] (Step S5) The consideration calculation device 3 notifies the user Ua of the third consideration of the user Ua.

[0034] Next, the satisfaction estimation method according to the present embodiment will be described. In the present embodiment, as the satisfaction estimation method, the satisfaction of the user Ua is estimated using at least one of the biological data and the video data of the user Ua.

[0035] (Example 1 of satisfaction estimation method) The satisfaction estimation unit 12 compares the biological data of the user Ua with a predetermined satisfaction determination value, and determines the satisfaction of the user Ua from the result of the comparison. The satisfaction determination value is set in advance in the consideration calculation device 3. For example, when the heart rate of the user Ua matches the satisfaction determination value, it may be determined that the satisfaction of the user Ua is high, and when the heart rate of the user Ua does not match the satisfaction determination value, it may be determined that the satisfaction of the user Ua is not high. Similarly, for blood pressure, respiratory rate, electroencephalogram, etc., the satisfaction of the user Ua may be determined by comparison with the satisfaction determination value. The satisfaction determination value may be based on, for example, the value when a person has less stress. This is because when a person has less stress, it is considered that the person is in a state where they can concentrate, so it is thought that the person's satisfaction may be high.

[0036] Also, it may be determined that the longer the time during which the biological data of the user Ua matches the satisfaction determination value, the higher the satisfaction of the user Ua.

[0037] (Example 2 of satisfaction estimation method) The satisfaction estimation unit 12 recognizes the behavior of user Ua from the video data of user Ua, compares the recognized behavior of user Ua with a predetermined satisfaction determination behavior, and determines the satisfaction of user Ua from the result of the comparison. The satisfaction determination behavior is set in the consideration calculation device 3 in advance. For example, it may be determined that the satisfaction of user Ua is high when the behavior of user Ua matches the satisfaction determination behavior, and it may be determined that the satisfaction of user Ua is not high when the behavior of user Ua does not match the satisfaction determination behavior. The satisfaction determination behavior may be based on, for example, the behavior when a person has little stress. This is because it is considered that when a person has little stress, the person is in a state where they can concentrate, so it is thought that the satisfaction of the person may be high.

[0038] Note that Example 1 and Example 2 of the above-described satisfaction estimation method may be combined.

[0039] Next, some examples of the method for calculating the second consideration according to the present embodiment will be described.

[0040] (Example 1 of the method for calculating the second consideration) In Example 1 and Example 2 of the above-described satisfaction estimation method, there may be individual differences in the values and behaviors of biological data for which satisfaction increases. For this reason, in Example 1 of the method for calculating the second consideration, the second consideration is not calculated only based on the estimation result of the satisfaction of user Ua by the satisfaction estimation unit 12, but a satisfaction inquiry is made to user Ua, and the second consideration is calculated based on the answer and the estimation result of the satisfaction of user Ua by the satisfaction estimation unit 12.

[0041] For user Ua, satisfaction is inquired during or after the period of working or studying at location 30, and the answer is obtained. The information reception unit 11 receives the satisfaction answer information indicating the answer. The satisfaction answer information may be obtained from user Ua, or may be obtained from a company, school, etc. that has received the first consideration from user Ua.

[0042] The consideration calculation unit 13 calculates a second consideration based on the comparison result between the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua and the response shown in the satisfaction response information. For example, when both the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua and the response shown in the satisfaction response information have high satisfaction, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula A that calculates a large second consideration may be used. On the other hand, when the satisfaction is high in the response shown in the satisfaction response information but the satisfaction is not high in the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula B that calculates a second consideration less than the second consideration calculation formula A may be used.

[0043] (Example 2 of the method for calculating the second consideration) In Example 2 of the method for calculating the second consideration, the achievement degree of the goal of the user Ua in the act of working or studying at the location 30 is used. The information reception unit 11 receives goal achievement degree information indicating the achievement degree of the goal of the user Ua in the act of working or studying at the location 30. The goal achievement degree information may be obtained from the user Ua, or may be obtained from a company, school, etc. to which the first consideration has been paid by the user Ua.

[0044] The consideration calculation unit 13 calculates a second consideration based on the estimated satisfaction result of the user Ua and the achievement degree shown in the goal achievement degree information. For example, when the achievement degree is high, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula that calculates a large second consideration may be used. Also, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which the higher the achievement degree, the more the second consideration is calculated may be used.

[0045] (Example 3 of the method for calculating the second consideration) In Example 3 of the method for calculating the second consideration, personal communication information regarding the people with whom the user Ua communicated in the act of working or studying at the location 30 is used. The personal communication information is, for example, the number of people, importance, communication time, etc. regarding the people with whom the user Ua communicated. In practice, even if not actually meeting, the number of people with whom the user Ua has made an appointment may be included in the number of people with whom the user Ua communicated. The importance may be based on the position, etc. at the location 30 (company, school, etc.). For example, the higher the position, the higher the importance may be set. The personal communication information may be obtained from the user Ua, or may be obtained from a company, school, etc. to which the first consideration has been paid by the user Ua.

[0046] The consideration calculation unit 13 calculates a second consideration based on the estimated result of the satisfaction of the user Ua and the human communication information. For example, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which the more the number of people with whom the user Ua communicates, the more the second consideration is calculated may be used. For example, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which the higher the importance of the people with whom the user Ua communicates, the more the second consideration is calculated may be used. For example, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which the longer the communication time of the user Ua, the more the second consideration is calculated may be used.

[0047] (Example 4 of the method for calculating the second consideration) In Example 4 of the method for calculating the second consideration, the amount of positive emotion when the user Ua communicates with a person is used. The information reception unit 11 receives, as user state data, data including at least one of the biological data of the user Ua measured when the user Ua communicates with a person at location 30, the video data of the user Ua photographed when the user Ua communicates with a person at location 30, and the voice data of the user Ua recorded when the user Ua communicates with a person at location 30. This user state data (hereinafter referred to as communication-time user state data) is received by the consideration calculation device 3 from the information collection device 5.

[0048] The consideration calculation device 3 determines the amount of positive emotion when the user Ua communicates with a person at location 30 based on the communication-time user state data of the user Ua. The amount of positive emotion is, for example, the number of times or the time when positive emotion appears. The amount of positive emotion may be the number of times positive emotion appears, or the time when positive emotion appears, or an amount obtained by comprehensively combining the number of times and the time when positive emotion appears with a predetermined calculation formula. The method for determining positive emotion is described in, for example, Patent Documents 2, 3, 4, etc.

[0049] The consideration calculation device 3 calculates a second consideration based on the determined amount of positive emotion and the estimated result of the satisfaction of the user Ua. For example, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which the more the amount of positive emotion, the more the second consideration is calculated may be used.

[0050] (Example 5 of the calculation method of the second consideration) In Example 5 of the calculation method of the second consideration, the feelings of others Ub and Uc who are with user Ua at location 30 are used. Thereby, the evaluations of others Ub and Uc for user Ua are reflected in the second consideration.

[0051] The information reception unit 11 receives at least one of video data of others Ub and Uc taken together with user Ua (hereinafter referred to as other video data) and audio data in which conversations between user Ua and others are recorded (hereinafter referred to as other conversation data). The other video data and the other conversation data are received by the consideration calculation device 3 from the information collection device 5.

[0052] The consideration calculation unit 13 determines the feelings of the other person based on at least one of the other video data and the other conversation data. Examples of the feelings of the other person include positive feelings, negative feelings, and neutral feelings. The consideration calculation unit 13 calculates the second consideration based on the determined feelings of others Ub and Uc and the estimated result of the satisfaction of user Ua. For example, when the feelings of others Ub and Uc are positive feelings, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which more second consideration is calculated than in the cases of negative feelings and neutral feelings may be used. For example, when the feelings of others Ub and Uc are neutral feelings, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which less second consideration is calculated than in the case of positive feelings and more second consideration is calculated than in the case of negative feelings may be used. For example, when the feelings of others Ub and Uc are negative feelings, a predetermined second consideration calculation formula in which less second consideration is calculated than in the cases of positive feelings and neutral feelings may be used.

[0053] The above is the description of the example of the calculation method of the second consideration. Note that at least one of the minimum amount and the maximum amount may be set for the second consideration.

[0054] FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 are diagrams showing examples according to the present embodiment.

[0055] Figure 3 shows a case where user Ua pays a workplace usage fee to a company where he / she wants to work and obtains a workplace 30. In the example of Figure 3, user Ua pays a workplace usage fee of "¥A" to company P and receives an offer of workplace 30 from company P. Company P receives needs from customer X, provides services that meet those needs to customer X, and receives a service usage fee of "¥C" from customer X. Here, user Ua receives a work request related to the services provided to customer X from company P and provides (works) the labor force required for that work to company P. User Ua receives a wage of "¥B" for that labor from company P. Also, user Ua obtains (learns) work skills and know-how through that work.

[0056] In the example of Figure 3, the workplace usage fee "¥A" is the first consideration. The consideration calculation device 3 estimates the satisfaction of user Ua when engaging in the work received from company P, calculates the second consideration to be paid to user Ua based on the estimation result of the satisfaction, and calculates the third consideration for user Ua based on the workplace usage fee "¥A" and the calculation result of the second consideration. The second consideration and the third consideration are different from the wage "¥B" that company P pays to user Ua. In the example of Figure 3, it is possible to calculate the consideration for user Ua when user Ua pays the workplace usage fee "¥A" and works.

[0057] Figure 4 shows a case where user Ua pays a learning fee to a school where he / she wants to study and obtains a place to study 30. In the example of Figure 4, user Ua pays a learning fee of "¥A" to school Q and receives an offer of a place to study 30 from school Q. School Q receives a problem site, teaching materials, etc. from customer Y, solves the problems of the problem site, teaching materials, etc., and receives a problem-solving amount of "¥C" from customer Y. Here, user Ua receives the provision of learning content for solving the problems from customer Y from school Q and provides (works) the problem-solving ability required for that learning content to school Q. User Ua receives a reward of "¥B" for that problem-solving from school Q. Also, user Ua obtains (learns) knowledge and skills through that learning content.

[0058] In the example of FIG. 4, the learning cost "¥A" is the first consideration. The consideration calculation device 3 estimates the satisfaction degree of the user Ua when the user Ua engages with the learning content received from the school Q, calculates a second consideration to be paid to the user Ua based on the estimation result of the satisfaction degree, and calculates a third consideration for the user Ua based on the learning cost "¥A" and the calculation result of the second consideration. The second consideration and the third consideration are different from the reward "¥B" that the school Q pays to the user Ua. In the example of FIG. 4, it is possible to calculate the consideration for the user Ua when the user Ua studies while receiving the reward "¥B".

[0059] According to the above-described embodiment, there is an effect that it is possible to calculate the consideration for the user Ua when the user Ua studies while receiving a reward or works while paying a fee.

[0060] Note that the method of paying the consideration is not limited. For example, legal tender may be used for paying the consideration. For example, cryptocurrency (virtual currency) may be used for paying the consideration. For example, points that can be used as payment for goods, services, etc. may be used for paying the consideration.

[0061] Note that as a result, for example, it is possible to realize an improvement in the overall service quality in a personnel dispatch service or the like, and thus it is possible to contribute to Goal 8 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) led by the United Nations, "Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all".

[0062] As described above, the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and design changes and the like within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention are also included.

[0063] Further, a computer program for realizing the functions of each of the above-described apparatuses may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, and the program recorded on this recording medium may be read into a computer system and executed. Here, the "computer system" may include hardware such as an OS and peripheral devices. Further, the "computer-readable recording medium" refers to a writable non-volatile memory such as a flexible disk, a magneto-optical disk, a ROM, a flash memory, a portable medium such as a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc), and a storage device such as a hard disk built in a computer system.

[0064] Furthermore, the "computer-readable recording medium" also includes a volatile memory (for example, DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory)) inside a computer system that becomes a server or a client when a program is transmitted via a network such as the Internet or a communication line such as a telephone line, and that holds the program for a certain period of time. Further, the above program may be transmitted from a computer system storing the program in a storage device or the like to another computer system via a transmission medium or by a transmission wave in the transmission medium. Here, the "transmission medium" for transmitting the program refers to a medium having a function of transmitting information, such as a network (communication network) such as the Internet or a communication line (communication wire) such as a telephone line. Further, the above program may be for realizing a part of the above-described functions. Furthermore, it may be a so-called difference file (difference program) that can realize the above-described functions in combination with a program already recorded in a computer system.
