  • Publication number: 20230206294
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an information processing apparatus including a processor and a memory. The processor references a list indicative of correspondence between a genre of products in electronic commerce and tags to be attached to the products, thereby determining at least one tag not corresponding to the genre. The processor performs a process of training a machine learning model including at least a classifier that determines an output value of each of the at least one tag related to the products on the basis of an embedded expression in product information on the products, the training process being performed on the basis of a loss function of the at least one output value excluding the output value related to each of the at least one tag not corresponding to the genre of the products.

  • Patent number: 10402449
    Abstract: An information processing system according to one embodiment includes an extraction unit and a generation unit. The extraction unit extracts a word specified by a user and contained in a request transmitted from a user terminal and an image displayed as a choice on the user terminal in response to the request. The generation unit generates combination data by associating image data corresponding to the image and obtained from an image storage unit with a name based on the word.

  • Patent number: 10108639
    Abstract: Based on information being associated with one image among a plurality of images and concerning an object of the one image and information being associated with another image among the plurality of images and concerning an object of the other image, a characteristic information specification unit specifies characteristic information of the object of the one image as compared with the object of the other image. A characteristic information obtaining unit obtains the characteristic information specified by the characteristic information specification unit. A display control unit displays a screen image including a plurality of images on a display unit. Further, the display control unit displays the characteristic information so as to be associated with the one image.

  • Patent number: 10007935
    Abstract: The information processing system according to one embodiment includes a specifying unit and an extraction unit. The specifying unit specifies a content word co-occurring with onomatopoeia in one review among a plurality of posted reviews stored in a storage unit. The extraction unit extracts a posted sentence containing the content word from the plurality of posted reviews. In general, posted sentences or posted reviews containing onomatopoeia are likely to include users' actual experiences. By extracting the posted sentences that contain the content word which is likely to co-occur with onomatopoeia, it is possible to effectively extract the posted sentences on which users' actual experiences are written.

  • Patent number: 9740770
    Abstract: A counting device (100) provided with a subtree generating part (123) for generating first subtree comprising a first sentence and a second subtree comprising a second sentence. The counting device (100) is provided with: a categorizing part (125) for categorizing the first subtree in the same group as the second subtree when it is determined that a first expression represented by the first subtree and a second expression represented by a second subtree represent a matching content; and an output part (127) for outputting the number of subtrees categorized in the group, or an expression represented by a plurality of syntax trees or one of the subtrees categorized in the aforementioned group.

  • Patent number: 9645979
    Abstract: A corpus generation device according to an embodiment includes a web page acquisition unit, a reference word acquisition unit, an attachment unit and an output unit. The web page acquisition unit acquires a web page including description sentence data regarding a presentation target. The reference word acquisition unit acquires a reference word that is an attribute value regarding the presentation target from the web page. The attachment unit extracts a broader word belonging to a layer above the reference word acquired by the reference word acquisition unit from a storage unit that stores hierarchical relationship information indicating a hierarchical relationship between attribute values, and attaches an attribute tag corresponding to the reference word to the broader word included in the description sentence data. The output unit outputs, as corpus data, the description sentence data to which the attribute tag is attached by the attachment unit.
