摘要:
In an item selecting apparatus performing a selection of an item to be recommended for each user, it is performed to calculate, with respect to each usage registration of an item by a user, an elapsed value as a difference between a time point of creating the item or staring providing of the item and a predetermined time point, acquire a usage characteristics of each user based on the elapsed value and calculate a freshness value representing a degree of freshness about each item. Further, using correspondence rules of different characteristics corresponding to the usage item on the correspondence rule corresponding to the usage characteristics of each user, calculate a priority of the item for each user, based on the novelty index and performing a selection of the item.
摘要:
Audio data representative of a music piece is converted into data components in respective different frequency bands for every unit time interval to generate time frequency data pieces assigned to the respective different frequency bands. From the generated time frequency data pieces, detection is made as to each sustain region in which an effective data component in one of the frequency bands continues to occur during a reference time interval or longer. A feature quantity is calculated from at least one of (1) a number of the detected sustain regions and (2) magnitudes of the effective data components in the detected sustain regions. The music piece is classified in response to the calculated feature quantity.

A favorite item set making section makes a favorite item set. A first rate calculating section calculates, with respect to a first set of items, a first rate of the number of items satisfying recommended item conditions to the number of all items. A user characteristic value calculating section calculates a user characteristic value by using the first rate. An item selecting section selects, from items in the favorite item set, a plurality of items including items satisfying the recommended item conditions to make a result item set. When the user characteristic value satisfies prescribed conditions, the rate of the number of items in the result item set which satisfy the recommended item conditions to the number of all items in the result item set is greater than the first rate and smaller than 1 except for a case where the first rate is 1.

摘要:
A bibliographic-information impression word is generated from a bibliographic information segment about selected one of music pieces. An acoustic feature quantity of an audio signal representing the selected music piece is calculated. A feature-quantity impression word is generated from the calculated acoustic feature quantity. A degree of conformity between the bibliographic-information impression word and the feature-quantity impression word is determined. Both the bibliographic-information impression word and the feature-quantity impression word are. selected as final impression words when the determined conformity degree is greater than a predetermined threshold value. One is selected from the bibliographic-information impression word and the feature-quantity impression word as a final impression word when the determined conformity degree is not greater than the predetermined threshold value. A signal representing the final impression word or words is stored into a storage in relation to the selected music piece.

摘要:
A use history that at least associates a use subject identifier for identifying a user or a terminal device a user has used with a used item identifier, which is an item identifier for identifying an item used by a user, based on use information is stored in a use history storage section. Based on the use history, a degree of similarity between two item identifiers is calculated and using the degree of similarity, associated data causing a base item identifier, which is an item identifier of a base item, and an associated item identifier, which is an item identifier of an associated item similar to the base item to correspond to each other is created. A change value to change a point value managed for each use subject identifier is calculated.
摘要:
Identifiers are of items or categories assigned to the respective items. A price influence degree of each of identifiers associated with a base identifier is calculated from price information of the identifier through the use of a price influence function. A selection index of each of the identifiers associated with the base identifier is calculated according to a rule such that the calculated selection index will increase as a degree of association with the base identifier is greater and the calculated price influence degree is greater. Identifiers each great in calculated selection index are preferentially selected from the identifiers associated with the base identifier. Items or categories having identifiers equal to the selected identifiers may be recommended to a user.
