  • Publication number: 20240126675
    Abstract: A classification device (10) acquires an operation log related to operation information, identifies each operation performed by a user using the operation log, and creates a vector of each operation on the basis of a co-occurrence relationship between the identified operations. Then, the classification device (10) calculates a similarity between a predetermined number of operations adjacent to each other in chronological order using the created vector of each operation, determines a division point of the operations using the calculated similarity, and divides a time-series operation into operation sets on the basis of the division point. Then, the classification device (10) classifies the operation sets into classes on the basis of the number of types of operations common to the operation sets.

  • Publication number: 20240096055
    Abstract: An acquisition unit detects an operation event of a user and acquires an occurrence position of the operation event in a captured image of an operation screen. A specifying unit specifies an image of the occurrence position of the operation event from among images to be candidates for a GUI component extracted from the captured image and records the image and the operation event in association with each other. A classifying unit classifies a set of recorded images into clusters according to the similarity between the images. A generation unit generates an operation log by using an image corresponding to the operation event of each classified cluster.

  • Publication number: 20230222713
    Abstract: A display control apparatus (10) generates, based on a hierarchical structure of data items included in an operation log, a graphical object representing a series of operations indicated in the operation log with a node and a link. The display control apparatus (10) generates visualized information in which information indicating a connection relationship between nodes belonging to a lower hierarchical level than that of a node belonging to a first hierarchical level is represented in the node in a nested manner based on the generated graphical object. The information indicating the connection relationship between nodes in the nest is information in which a start node on a first axis in the nest is connected with a link to an end node on a second axis. In addition, the display control apparatus (10) disposes, with respect to a node group of the first hierarchical level in the visualized information, nodes having higher commonality in values of the data items such that they are brought closer to each other.
