Abstract
Disclosed is a method for providing matching information through the analysis of sound information according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method may include a step for acquiring the sound information, a step for acquiring user feature information on the basis of the sound information, and a step for providing the matching information corresponding to the user feature information.
Claims9
A method performed by a computing device, a user terminal, and a sensor, comprising:
- obtaining, by the user terminal, sound information;
- generating, by the user terminal, a spectrogram or a mel-spectrogram of the sound information by analyzing of the sound information;
- identifying, by the sensor that is located in a living space of a user, whether the user is located in a specific space that is the living space of the user, by recognizing radio waves transmitted from a radio-frequency identification (RFID) module of the user terminal;
- identifying, by the computing device, whether the user is located in the specific space, based on sensing information received from the sensor;
- in response to an identification that the user is located in the specific space, obtaining, by the computing device, the spectrogram or the mel-spectrogram of the sound information from the user terminal;
- obtaining, by the computing device, user feature information, based on the spectrogram or the mel-spectrogram of the sound information;
- and
- providing, by the computing device, matching information corresponding to the user feature information, to one or more of the user terminals,
- wherein the matching information comprises user-specific advertisement information,
- wherein the providing of the matching information comprises:
- generating an environmental feature table, based on one or more pieces of user feature information each corresponding to one of one or more pieces of the spectrogram or the mel-spectrogram of the sound information, that has been continuously obtained in the living space of the user in each time zone at intervals of a predetermined time period;
- and
- providing the matching information, based on the environmental feature table,
- wherein the environmental feature table comprises information on statistics of each piece of user feature information obtained at the intervals of the predetermined time period, and
- wherein the providing of the matching information further comprises:
- identifying a first point in time for providing the matching information, based on the environmental feature table, wherein the first point in time is a time point when a specific activity is performed in each time zone, and the matching information includes the user-specific advertisement information related to the specific activity;
- and
- providing the matching information at the first point in time.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium on which program for executing a method of providing matching information through sound information analysis in conjunction with a computing device, a user terminal, and a sensor is recorded, wherein the method comprises:
- obtaining, by the user terminal, sound information;
- generating, by the user terminal, a spectrogram or a mel-spectrogram of the sound information by analyzing of the sound information;
- identifying, by the sensor that is located in a living space of a user, whether the user is located in a specific space that is the living space of the user, by recognizing radio waves transmitted from a radio-frequency identification (RFID) module of the user terminal;
- identifying, by the computing device, whether the user is located in the specific space, based on sensing information received from the sensor;
- in response to an identification that the user is located in the specific space, obtaining, by the computing device, the spectrogram or the mel-spectrogram of the sound information from the user terminal;
- obtaining, by the computing device, user feature information, based on the spectrogram or the mel-spectrogram of the sound information;
- and
- providing, by the computing device, matching information corresponding to the user feature information, to one or more of the user terminals,
- wherein the matching information comprises user-specific advertisement information,
- wherein the providing of the matching information comprises:
- generating an environmental feature table, based on one or more pieces of user feature information each corresponding to one of one or more pieces of the spectrogram or the mel-spectrogram of the sound information, that has been continuously obtained in the living space of the user in each time zone at intervals of a predetermined time period;
- and
- providing the matching information, based on the environmental feature table,
- wherein the environmental feature table comprises information on statistics of each piece of user feature information obtained at the intervals of the predetermined time period, and
- wherein the providing of the matching information further comprises:
- identifying a first point in time for providing the matching information, based on the environmental feature table, wherein the first point in time is a time point when a specific activity is performed in each time zone, and the matching information includes the user-specific advertisement information related to the specific activity;
- and
- providing the matching information at the first point in time.
