Application: Information processing device, information processing method, and program (Patent ID: US20230385936A1)
The patent filed by Sony Group Corp describes an information processing device that predicts a preference action that can be executed by a subject in a specific situation with high accuracy. The device includes a prediction unit that uses preference record data related to a task executed by the subject to generate preference prediction data based on a classifier created through manifold learning. This prediction model applies assumed information about the situation to classify units and output accurate predictions for each unit.
The information processing device further refines its predictions by incorporating situation transition data and past preference ratio data into the classifier, allowing for the acquisition of codebook vectors for each unit. The device then applies a prediction model based on assumed information about the situation to these vectors to generate preference prediction data, including predicted preference ratio data. Additionally, the device can display maps showing the intensity of predicted preference ratios or the difference between predicted and past preference ratios. Overall, the patent outlines a sophisticated system for predicting preference actions in various situations, particularly in the context of asset management and investment actions in financial products, using manifold learning and prediction models based on assumed information.
