Description

IoT-based alternative credit rating method and IoT-based alternative credit rating system

[0001] The present invention relates to an IoT-based alternative credit rating method and an IoT-based alternative credit rating system, and more particularly, to an IoT-based alternative credit rating method and an IoT-based alternative credit rating system that determine credit ratings based on utilization rate data.

[0002] Credit rating information can refer to information that evaluates the creditworthiness of a counterparty in commercial transactions such as financial transactions. Financial institutions utilize the borrower's credit rating information in the process of providing credit-based credit services (e.g., loans, credit card issuance, etc.) to evaluate the possibility of damage that may occur due to the company's insolvency, and can use this to determine whether to approve a loan, the limit interest rate, etc.

[0003] In the case of existing models that generate credit rating information, credit rating information was generated primarily using financial data. However, in the case of companies where financial data is absent or insignificant, there may be a problem of low reliability of credit rating information.

[0004] Accordingly, the need to improve the reliability of credit rating information by predicting credit risk using data other than corporate financial data has increased.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an IoT-based alternative credit rating method and an IoT-based alternative credit rating system that determine credit ratings based on utilization rate data.

[0006] An IoT-based alternative credit rating method according to one embodiment of the present invention for achieving this purpose includes a step of collecting a plurality of factory facility data through IoT sensors attached to a plurality of factory facilities installed in a factory, a step of calculating operation rate data based on the collected plurality of factory facility data, and a step of determining a corporate credit rating based on the operation rate data.

[0007] Here, the step of collecting the plurality of factory equipment data can obtain vibration data of the plurality of factory equipment through the IoT sensor.

[0008] In addition, the step of calculating the above operating rate data can calculate an operating rate data graph by time series analysis of the transmission cycle, measurement cycle, operating rate, and operating rate count included in the vibration data.

[0009] In addition, the above operating rate data graph can continuously display operating rate figures of the multiple factory facilities by hour and date.

[0010] In addition, the step of determining the corporate credit rating may determine the corporate credit rating based on the operating rate data graph for a preset period of time.

[0011] In addition, the step of determining the corporate credit rating may update the corporate credit rating by performing machine learning on the shape of the operating rate data graph and comparing it with a newly calculated operating rate data graph.

[0012] Meanwhile, an IoT-based alternative credit rating system according to one embodiment of the present invention includes an IoT sensor device attached to a plurality of factory facilities installed in a factory and collecting a plurality of factory facility data, and a server that calculates operating rate data based on the collected plurality of factory facility data and determines a corporate credit rating based on the operating rate data.

[0013] In addition, in a computer-readable recording medium storing a program for providing an IoT-based alternative credit rating service according to an embodiment of the present invention, the program includes a step of collecting a plurality of factory facility data through IoT sensors attached to a plurality of factory facilities installed in a factory, a step of calculating operation rate data based on the collected plurality of factory facility data, and a step of determining a corporate credit rating based on the operation rate data.

[0014] According to various embodiments of the present invention as described above, the accuracy of the credit rating can be increased by determining the corporate credit rating by utilizing physical data related to the factory facilities in addition to the financial information of the company.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating an IoT-based alternative credit rating method according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0016] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an operation rate data graph according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0017] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating the configuration of an IoT-based alternative credit rating system according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0018] Figure 4 is a block diagram showing a specific configuration of a server according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0019] FIG. 5 is a drawing of a software module stored in a storage unit according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0020] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. Furthermore, in describing the present invention, detailed descriptions of related known functions or configurations will be omitted if they are deemed to unnecessarily obscure the gist of the invention. Furthermore, the terms described below are defined based on their functions in the present invention and may vary depending on the intentions or relationships of the user or operator. Therefore, their definitions should be based on the overall content of this specification.

[0021] FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating an IoT-based alternative credit rating method according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0022] Referring to FIG. 1, an IoT-based alternative credit rating method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a step (S110) of collecting a plurality of factory facility data through IoT sensors attached to a plurality of factory facilities installed in a factory, a step (S120) of calculating operation rate data based on the collected plurality of factory facility data, and a step (S130) of determining a corporate credit rating based on the operation rate data.

[0023] Here, alternative credit rating refers to evaluating credit based on non-financial information such as communication, electricity, and gas bill payment history, and SNS information. Recently, the types of non-financial information have been expanding to include athletic ability information, purchase history information, card usage information, and psychological information.

[0024] An alternative credit rating method according to one embodiment of the present invention performs credit rating based on physical data collected using IoT devices, and IoT sensors may be attached to each of multiple factory facilities installed in a factory.

[0025] And, each IoT sensor collects factory equipment data from each factory equipment. Specifically, the step (S110) of collecting multiple factory equipment data can acquire vibration data of multiple factory equipment through the IoT sensors.

[0026] Specifically, the IoT sensor includes a vibration sensor inside, which can sense the shaking vibration of the factory equipment when the factory equipment is in operation, thereby obtaining data on whether the factory equipment is currently in operation and for how long.

[0027] In addition, the step of producing the operating rate data (S120) can produce an operating rate data graph by time series analysis of the transmission cycle, measurement cycle, operating rate, and operating rate count included in the vibration data.

[0028] Here, the transmission cycle refers to the cycle in which the IoT sensor transmits vibration data, the measurement cycle refers to the vibration sensing cycle of the IoT sensor, the operating rate refers to the numerical increase / decrease rate of the vibration data, and the operating rate count refers to the order information of the operating rate data according to time.

[0029] Accordingly, the step (S120) of calculating the operating rate data can also calculate the operating rate data graph in various forms by changing the transmission cycle, measurement cycle, operating rate, and operating rate count included in the vibration data.

[0030] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an operation rate data graph according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0031] Referring to Figure 2, a graph of operating rate data for factory equipment is shown, where the horizontal axis represents time and date, and the vertical axis represents the operating rate value.

[0032] That is, the operating rate data graph is a graph that continuously displays the operating rate figures of multiple factory facilities by hour and date, and specifically, includes the Monday operating rate of the factory facilities (210), the Tuesday operating rate of the factory facilities (220), the Wednesday operating rate of the factory facilities (230), the Thursday operating rate of the factory facilities (240), the Friday operating rate of the factory facilities (250), the Saturday operating rate of the factory facilities (260), and the Sunday operating rate of the factory facilities (270).

[0033] Referring to Figure 2, the operating rate figures and the shapes of the operating rate graphs for each day of the week and hour are all different, because the vibration of the actual operating factory equipment differs by hour and date.

[0034] Meanwhile, the step (S130) of determining the corporate credit rating may determine the corporate credit rating based on the operating rate data graph for a preset period of time.

[0035] For example, the step (S130) of determining a corporate credit rating may determine a corporate credit rating based on a graph of operating rate data for 24 hours, which is calculated by analyzing vibration information of the factory equipment for 24 hours through an IoT sensor attached to the factory equipment.

[0036] Specifically, if the operating rate data obtained through IoT sensors attached to factory equipment has a high operating rate, the corporate credit rating will also increase, and if the operating rate data has a low operating rate, the corporate credit rating will also be determined to be low.

[0037] Here, a high corporate credit rating means better credit, and a low corporate credit rating means worse credit.

[0038] In addition, the step (S130) of determining the corporate credit rating can update the corporate credit rating by machine learning the shape of the operating rate data graph and comparing it with the newly generated operating rate data graph.

[0039] Specifically, the step (S130) of determining the corporate credit rating can learn the form of the operating rate data graph, i.e., the image itself, and compare the image with the image of the newly generated operating rate data graph. If the image of the newly generated operating rate data graph is smaller, the corporate credit rating can be lowered, and if the image is larger, the corporate credit rating can be raised.

[0040] In addition, the step (S130) of determining the corporate credit rating can obtain information on whether there is a problem with the operation of the factory equipment or whether performance has deteriorated at a certain time or date based on the size of the image of the operation rate data graph as well as the shape deformation part of the image, and can reflect this in the corporate credit rating.

[0041] Additionally, the step (S130) for determining the corporate credit rating can be adjusted by reflecting credit rating results from other institutions, provided as open source. In this case, the corporate credit rating can be adjusted by calculating different weights for the credit rating results from other institutions provided as open source and the utilization rate data graph.

[0042] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating the configuration of an IoT-based alternative credit rating system according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0043] Referring to FIG. 3, an IoT-based alternative credit rating system (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a server (100) and an IoT sensor device (200), and the IoT sensor device (200) can be attached to a plurality of factory facilities installed in a factory to collect a plurality of factory facility data.

[0044] Here, the IoT sensor device (200) may include a vibration sensor inside, and may include various sensors such as a temperature / humidity detection sensor, a harmful gas detection sensor, etc. in addition to the vibration sensor.

[0045] Additionally, the IoT sensor device (200) includes a communication unit (not shown), through which collected data can be transmitted to the server (100).
