Then, the server 2 converts the search result into a search result according to the purpose orientation (for example, conversion so as to change the presentation order of information about the site in the search result), and sends the converted search result to the mobile terminal 1. Send.

  The mobile terminal 1 presents the search result received from the server 2.

  A method of calculating the purpose orientation in the site search system according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  This calculation method is a method for calculating the degree of object orientation from the character input status of the mobile terminal. According to the above-mentioned use fact-finding results (for example, graph G4 in FIG. 20), it is known that a search with a low intention orientation is often performed at home. Applied.

  Further, in the following description, time and place will be described as an example of usage scene information. However, the purpose-oriented degree may be calculated using a user search history, a life log, or the like. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing a process of calculating a goal orientation performed by the goal orientation calculating unit in FIG. FIG. 3 is a sequence chart of a site search service provided by the site search system.

  In the following explanation, the purpose-oriented degree is described as two stages of “high” (high purpose-oriented degree) and “low” (low purpose-oriented degree), but the number of stages is increased and search results suitable for each stage are obtained. May be presented. Assume that location information A and average input time A of user A are registered in advance in user database 31.

  First, the search keyword input unit 11 inputs a search keyword (S201).

  Next, the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 of the mobile terminal 1 of the user A acquires the position (start position = position α) at which the search site (server 2) is displayed (accessed) (S202), and the keyword input time. The time (start time = time α) when the measurement unit 12 displayed (accessed) the search site (server 2) is acquired (S203) (S101).

  Next, the position (transmission position = position β) at which the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 transmits the search keyword of the user A to the search site (server 2) is acquired (S202), and the keyword input time measurement unit 12 receives the user. The time when the search keyword of A is transmitted to the search site (server 2) (transmission time = time β) is acquired, and the search information transmitting unit 14 inputs the character including the search keyword, the start position, the start time, the transmission position, and the transmission time. The situation is transmitted to the server 2 (S203) (S102, M101).

  Next, the search information receiving unit 21 receives the search keyword and the character input status. Subsequently, the purpose orientation calculation unit 22 reads the position A (for example, “home”) of the user A stored in the user database 31 in advance (M102), and the place where the user A displayed the search site ( For example, the position α) is compared with the position A (S103, S204). If the location where the search site is displayed is equal to position A (for example, position α = “home”), the user is at home, and the process proceeds to step S106. If the location where the search site is displayed is not equal to the position A, it is assumed that the user A is out and the process proceeds to step S104.

  In step S104 (, S204), the goal orientation calculation unit 22 calculates the input time of the search term based on the start time (time α) and the transmission time (time β) (for example, calculates transmission time−start time). Then, the average input time A (for example, 10 minutes) of the user A stored in the user database 31 is compared. When the input time is longer than the average input time A, the process proceeds to step S106. When the input time is shorter than or equal to the average input time A, the process proceeds to step S105.

  In step S105 (, S204), the goal orientation calculating unit 22 sets the goal orientation to “high” (a value indicating that the goal orientation is high).

  In step S106 (, S204), the goal orientation calculating unit 22 sets the goal orientation to “low” (a value indicating that the goal orientation is low).

  Note that the order of acquiring the above-described start position, start time, transmission position, and transmission time may be slightly different as long as the information can be acquired.

  Further, as the above-described character input situation, the input speed and the number of erroneous inputs at the time of input may be adopted and used as an index of purpose orientation.

  If it is determined that the user has just started the search (for example, if the time is the same or shorter than the average input time), the target orientation is calculated including the location information, and the result is displayed accordingly. You may do it. For example, when it is determined that the input time exceeds the average input time and the goal orientation is low, a result display indicating that the goal orientation is low is displayed.

  The average input time of the user may be stored in the log data without being stored in the user database 31 in advance, and the average input time may be updated based on the log data.

  In FIG. 2, the method for calculating the degree of purpose orientation giving priority to the position has been described. However, the priority of time and position may be interchanged.

  In addition, as a means for acquiring the position information, a GPS (Global Position (Positioning) System) may be used, or it may be separately transmitted that the user is at home or away from home.

  A method in which the search result transmission unit 24 in FIG. 1 determines the presentation order of search results based on the search keyword, purpose orientation, and search results will be described with reference to FIGS. Note that the method of determining the presentation order is based on the above-mentioned usage survey, which indicates that the search contents when the user's purpose-oriented degree is high are moving means to the target moving place, information on the moving place, and a map. Based on the results (for example, the graph G3 in FIG. 19 and the graph G4 in FIG. 20). Further, in this method of determining the presentation order, the purpose orientation is calculated according to the category of the search word, the search time, and the place, and the search result according to the purpose orientation is presented.

  In this method for determining the presentation order, when the input search keyword is determined to be a proper noun (for example, store name, facility name, station name, place name) based on the search word database 32 in FIG. The goal orientation is calculated based on the goal orientation calculation method shown in FIG. 2, and if the goal orientation is high, information related to the Web site included in the search result relating to the calculated search keyword is presented to the upper level. That is, if the search keyword is a proper noun, a Web page with clear access to the search keyword and official information, such as an official site, is presented at the top.

  First, the search keyword input unit 11 inputs a search keyword (for example, “restaurant name”). (S301, S401).

  At the same time, the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 of the mobile terminal 1 of the user A acquires the position where the search site (server 2) is displayed (S402), and the keyword input time measurement unit 12 displays the search site (server 2). The acquired time is acquired (S403).

  Further, the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 acquires the position where the search keyword of the user A is transmitted to the search site (server 2) (S402), and the keyword input time measurement unit 12 searches the search site ( The time transmitted to the server 2) is acquired (S403), and the search information transmitting unit 14 transmits to the server 2 the character input status including the search keyword and the start position, start time, transmission position, and transmission time (M201).

  Next, the server 2 receives the search keyword and the character input status at the search information receiving unit 21, and the search unit 23 searches for the search keyword and acquires the search result (S302, S404).

  Next, the purpose-oriented calculation unit 22 of the server 2 performs a matching search on the search keyword database 32 of the server 2 (for example, the search word database 32 as shown in FIG. 6) (M202) and determines ( S303, S405). If it is determined that the search keyword is “store name” or “facility name”, the process proceeds to step S304. If it is determined that the search keyword is neither “store name” nor “facility name”, the process proceeds to step S305. Note that the search term database 32 in FIG. 6 includes search term data having a search keyword C11 and a classification C12.

  In step S304, the purpose-oriented calculation unit 22 of the server 2 calculates and determines the purpose-oriented using the purpose-oriented calculation method shown in FIG. 2 (M203, S406). If it is determined that the goal orientation is high (the goal orientation is set to “high”), the process proceeds to step S307. If it is determined that the goal orientation is low (the goal orientation is set to “low”), the process proceeds to step S309.

  In step S305 (, S405), the purpose orientation calculation unit 22 of the server 2 performs a match search on the search word database 32 of the server 2 for the search keyword (M202) and determines. If it is determined that the search keyword is “place name” or “station name”, the process proceeds to step S306. If it is determined that the search keyword is neither “place name” nor “station name”, the process proceeds to step S309.

  In step S306, the server 2 calculates and determines the goal orientation using the goal orientation calculation method shown in FIG. 2 (M203, S406). If it is determined that the goal orientation is high (the goal orientation is set to “high”), the process proceeds to step S308. If it is determined that the goal orientation is low (the goal orientation is set to “low”), the process proceeds to step S309.

  In step S307 (, S407, M204), the search result transmitting unit 24 of the server 2 converts the search result acquired in step S302 into a search result giving priority to a site including telephone number and map information, and the conversion The search result is transmitted to the mobile terminal 1.

  In step S308 (, S407, M204), the search result transmission unit 24 of the server 2 converts the search result acquired in step S302 into a search result giving priority to transfer guidance and a map site, and moves the converted search result. To the body terminal 1.

  In step S309 (, S407, M204), the search result transmitting unit 24 of the server 2 transmits to the mobile terminal 1 the search result obtained by converting the search result acquired in step S302 so that many site categories are included. .

  Then, the search result receiving unit 15 of the mobile terminal 1 receives the search result transmitted from the server 2, and the search result presenting unit 16 presents the search result (S408).

  In FIG. 4, “shop name”, “place name”, “station name”, and “facility name” have been described as examples, but the presentation method may be changed depending on other attributes of the search keyword.

  FIG. 7 is an example in which the search result is displayed on the mobile terminal 1 based on the method of determining the presentation order of the search result based on the search keyword, the purpose orientation, and the search result described above. FIG. 7 shows an example of a search result using “store name” as an example. FIG. 7A shows the search result display R1 when the goal orientation is “high”, and FIG. 7B shows the goal orientation. This is the search result display R2 when the degree is “low”.

  Further, when the store name is searched and the purpose orientation is “high”, it is related to the site including the telephone number and the map based on the site metadata table (for example, the site metadata table T1 in FIG. 8). The search results may be converted and presented so that the information is placed at the top. 8 includes a site name C21, a category C22, a telephone number presence / absence information C23 (a mark when the telephone number is present, a blank when there is no telephone number), a map presence / absence information C24 ( The site metadata table may be provided as a database of the site search service database 3, for example.

  Also, if you ’re searching for a store name and the goal orientation is “low”, it ’s possible that you ’re searching not only for the store ’s information, but also for the store ’s impressions and information about the store ’s surroundings. The search results may be converted and presented so that various categories (multiple categories) are included in the first page.

  Further, when various categories are displayed, the search results may be converted and presented so that the category brought up among them can reflect the user's preference. Note that the preference reflection method may be a method of registering a personal preference in advance or a method of reflecting a search history.

[Second Embodiment]
The structure of the site search system in 2nd Embodiment is demonstrated based on FIG.

  In addition to the configuration of the site search system in FIG. 1, the site search service database 3 is provided with a purpose-oriented database (purpose-oriented data management unit) 33 for determining a user's purpose-oriented degree.

  A method for calculating the degree of object orientation in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, the search keyword input unit 11 inputs a search keyword (S601).

  The start time when the keyword input time measurement unit 12 of the mobile terminal 1 displays the search site (server 2) is acquired as time γ, and the start position when the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 displays is acquired as position γ (S602). , S603) (S501).

  The keyword input time measurement unit 12 of the mobile terminal 1 acquires the input time when the search keyword is input as time δ and the position when the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 inputs the search keyword as the input position δ (S602). , S603), the search information transmitting unit 14 transmits to the server 2 a character input situation including the search keyword, start position, start time, input position, and input time (S502, M301).

  When the server 2 receives the search keyword and the character input status by the search information receiving unit 21, the purpose-oriented calculation unit 22 calculates the purpose-oriented degree, so that the position B of the user B stored in the user database 31 in advance is stored. (For example, home) is read (M302), and it is determined whether or not the input position of the received character input situation is equal to position B (S503, S604).

  When the input position is equal to the position B (home), the current position of the mobile terminal 1 of the user B is set as “position B (home)” (S504, S604), and the process proceeds to step S508. When the input position is not equal to the position B (home) (that is, when the user B is outside the home), the process proceeds to step S505.

  In step S505 (, S604), the purpose-oriented calculation unit 22 determines whether the input position and the start position satisfy a specific condition. For example, when the difference between the input position and the start position exceeds a specific distance (for example, 10 km (kilometers)), the current position of the mobile terminal 1 of the user B is set to “going out” (S506), step The process proceeds to S508. When the difference does not exceed the specific distance, the current position of the mobile terminal 1 of the user B is set as “moving” (S507, S604), and the process proceeds to step S508. For the input position and the start position, for example, detailed position information such as the vicinity of a station, the vicinity of an airport, or a shopping mall may be used by combining GPS information and map information.

  In step S508 (, S605), the purpose-oriented calculation unit 22 determines the purpose-oriented degree using the search word database 32 and the purpose-oriented degree database 33 based on the search keyword, the current position, and the input time (time δ). More specifically, the category of the search keyword is acquired by a matching search with the search word database 32 (M303), and the acquired classification, input time, and current position are stored in the purpose-oriented database (for example, the purpose as shown in FIG. 12). The search is matched with the orientation database 33) (M304), and the purpose orientation is determined and set. FIG. 12 is composed of purpose-oriented data having a search word category C31 indicating a category (classification) of a search keyword, a time C32, a position C33, and a purpose-oriented C34.

  For example, when the search keyword is “restaurant”, the classification C12 can acquire “store name” based on the search word database 32 of FIG. When the acquired classification “store name”, input time “8:00”, and current position “station” are determined in correspondence with the search category C31, time C32, and position C33 in FIG. “High” and the purpose-oriented degree is set to “high”. It should be noted that the combination used as the criterion for discriminating the purpose orientation may be only the search word and the place where the search is performed, or only the search word and the time when the search is performed.

  Note that the time C33 in the purpose-oriented database 33 in FIG. 12 may reflect an individual's life time (wake-up or bedtime, work or home time).

  Next, the search unit 23 performs a search based on the search keyword, acquires the search result, converts the search result by a method according to the purpose orientation determined by the search result transmission unit 24 (S606), and transmits the search result. The search result converted by the unit 24 is transmitted to the mobile terminal 1 (M305).

  Then, the search result receiving unit 15 receives the search result from the server 2, and the search result presenting unit 16 displays the search result (S607).

  The keyword input time measurement unit 12 of the mobile terminal 1 acquires the input time when the search keyword is input as time δ, and the position when the keyword input location acquisition unit 13 inputs the search keyword is acquired as the input position δ. The information transmitting unit 14 transmits the character input status including the search keyword, start position, start time, input position, and input time to the server 2 (S702).

  Next, when the search keyword and character input status are received by the search information receiving unit 21, the purpose-oriented calculating unit 22 calculates the purpose-oriented degree. Subsequently, the search unit 23 performs a search based on the search keyword, obtains a search result (for example, a search result composed of HyperText Markup Language (HTML) data), and the object orientation degree determined by the search result transmission unit 24. Display information (for example, information expressed by HTML radio buttons), search keyword, input time, and input position for returning whether or not the search result to be searched is returned. , The degree of object orientation is added to the search result, and the search result transmission unit 24 transmits the search result to the mobile terminal 1 (S703).

  Next, the search result receiving unit 15 receives the search result from the server 2, and the search result presenting unit 16 displays the search result (S704). It is assumed that a display is displayed on the displayed screen for returning whether or not the desired search result has been found.

  Next, the user inputs search success / failure information indicating whether or not the desired search result has been found, and the user of the mobile terminal 1 inputs the search success / failure information and the search result. The search keyword, the input time, the input position, and the purpose orientation included in the are transmitted (S705).

  Then, the server 2 receives the search success / failure information, the search keyword, the input time, the input position, and the purpose orientation degree, and the site search service database management unit 25 has found that the search success / failure information has been found. In this case, the search keyword, input time, input position, and purpose orientation are recorded in the search action history database 34. FIG. 15 shows an example of a search behavior history database. The search behavior history database 34 in FIG. 15 is composed of search behavior history data having a search term C41, a date C42, a time C43, a position C44, and a goal orientation degree C45. Is done.

  Further, the site search service database management unit 25 of the server 2 searches the search term database 32 of the server 2 (for example, the search term database 32 of FIG. 6) based on the search term C41 using the search behavior history data in FIG. The data is classified by the word category C12, and the objective orientation data is added to the objective orientation database 33 in FIG. 12 based on the classified result and the received input time, input position, and objective orientation (S706). .

  In addition, when adding different purpose orientations in the same search category, time, and position, the number of times “found” is input in advance is also recorded in the purpose orientation database 33 of FIG. Also good.

  The search success / failure information may not be input by the user, but may be determined from the browsed search result site and the browse time at the site.

  As described above, according to the third embodiment, by rewriting the purpose-oriented database shown in FIG. 12 based on the recorded search behavior, the search result based on the behavior and taste for each individual is obtained. Can be displayed.
