PROCESSING APPARATUS, PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18528204 titled 'PROCESSING APPARATUS, PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The present invention provides a processing apparatus for determining the activity area of a target user based on information from another person.
- Determination unit: Identifies reference users with a predetermined relationship to the target user based on social media posts within a specified search period.
- Estimation unit: Estimates the activity area of the reference user in the target period.
- Decision unit: Determines the activity area of the target user in the target period based on the activity area of the reference user in the same period.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in social media analytics, targeted advertising, and personalized recommendations based on user behavior.
Problems Solved
This technology helps improve precision in decision-making processes by leveraging information from related users to estimate the activity area of a target user.
Benefits
- Enhanced accuracy in predicting the activity area of a target user - Personalized recommendations and targeted advertising based on user behavior - Improved understanding of user preferences and interests
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing User Experience through Activity Area Prediction Technology"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to social media analytics and user behavior prediction technologies, but specific examples are not provided in this context.
Unanswered Questions
This technology may raise concerns about privacy and data security, especially when accessing personal information from social media platforms. Implementing robust data protection measures and obtaining user consent could address these issues.
What are the potential limitations of using social media data to predict user behavior and activity areas?
Using social media data for decision-making processes may be limited by the accuracy and reliability of the information obtained. Biases in user-generated content and changes in user behavior over time could impact the effectiveness of this technology.
Original Abstract Submitted
To improve precision in decision in a technique for deciding an activity area of a target user, based on information of another person, the present invention provides a processing apparatus including: a determination unit that determines one or a plurality of reference users having a predetermined relationship with a target user whose activity area in a target period is to be estimated, based on post information posted on social media by each user within a search period being set based on the target period; an estimation unit that estimates an activity area of the reference user in the target period; and a decision unit that decides an activity area of the target user in the target period, based on an activity area of the reference user in the target period.
