However, with the above-described technique to secure reliability with use of credit scores, the reliability of credit scores cannot be sufficiently secured because a previous credit score cannot be reflected after a credit score acquirer (user) has cancelled the use of a credit score, or when he/she started the use of a credit score as another user while continuing the use of a credit score.
An example object of the invention is to provide a credit score management apparatus, a credit score management method, and a computer readable recording medium that improve the reliability of credit scores.
In order to achieve the example object described above, a credit score management apparatus according to an example aspect of the invention includes:
Also, in order to achieve the example object described above, a credit score management method according to an example aspect of the invention includes:
Furthermore, in order to achieve the example object described above, a computer-readable recording medium according to an example aspect of the invention includes a program recorded on the computer-readable recording medium, the program including instructions that cause the computer to carry out:
As described above, according to the invention, it is possible to improve the reliability of credit scores.
The following describes an example embodiment of the invention with reference to the drawings. Note that in the drawings to be described below, the elements that have the same functions or corresponding functions are given the same reference sign, and a repetitive description thereof may be omitted.
First, the configuration of a credit score management apparatus 10 in the example embodiment will be described using
The credit score management apparatus 10 shown in
Among these, the acquisition unit 11 acquires biometric authentication information of a credit score acquisition applicant. The storage unit 12 stores a credit score of a credit score acquirer and biometric authentication information of the credit score acquirer in association with each other. The registration unit 13 registers the credit score acquisition applicant as a credit score acquirer in accordance with the result of comparison between the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant and biometric authentication information of credit score acquirers.
Biometric authentication information is, for example, information indicating a facial image of a credit score acquisition applicant or a credit score acquirer, the feature amount of this facial image, the features of a biological organ of a user other than the face (e.g., a fingerprint, an iris, a vein, or the like), the features of a behavior of a credit score acquisition applicant or a credit score acquirer, or the like. Note that two or more pieces of information that are included among the foregoing pieces of information may be used as biometric authentication information.
A credit score is an index indicating the creditworthiness of a person. A credit score is generated based on data of the record of use or provision of a service by a credit score acquirer. Credit scores are used in services of a variety of fields.
Services include, for example, a service that uses the sharing economy, a service related to a loan, a service related to an auction, and so on.
In the example embodiment, a credit score acquisition applicant is registered as a credit score acquirer in accordance with the result of comparison between biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant and biometric authentication information of credit score acquirers, and thus the reliability of credit scores can be improved.
Next, the configuration of the credit score management apparatus 10 in the example embodiment will be described more specifically using
A system 20 in the example embodiment shown in
The terminal apparatuses 21 and 22 are terminal apparatuses owned by the individuals to whom credit scores are provided. The terminal apparatuses 21 and 22 are, for example, such information processing apparatuses as smartphones, tablets, personal computers, and special-purpose terminals.
In the example of
The network 23 is a network via which the credit score management apparatus 10 and the terminal apparatuses 21 and 22 are connected. Also, a service mediation system (or a service mediation apparatus) that mediates services may be connected to the network 23.
The service mediation system is, for example, a system that mediates services of a variety of fields, such as a service that uses the sharing economy, a service related to a loan, and a service related to an auction.
A description is now given of the details of the credit score management apparatus.
The credit score management apparatus 10 includes the acquisition unit 11, the storage unit 12, the registration unit 13, an authentication unit 14, a generation unit 15, a holding unit 16, and a notification unit 17.
The credit score management apparatus 10 is, for example, an information processing apparatus, such as a computer, provided with a programmable device (e.g., a CPU (central processing unit), an FPGA (field-programmable gate array), or both of them). The credit score management apparatus 10 may be, for example, realized by a server computer or the like.
When an application for acquisition of a credit score is made, the acquisition unit 11 acquires biometric authentication information of a credit score acquisition applicant from the terminal apparatus 21 or 22 via the network 23.
The storage unit 12 stores a credit score of a credit score acquirer and biometric authentication information of the credit score acquirer in association with each other. Specifically, the storage unit 12 stores identification information (ID) for identifying a credit score acquirer, biometric authentication information of the credit score acquirer, and a credit score of the credit score acquirer in association with one another.
While the storage unit 12 is provided inside the credit score management apparatus 10 in the example of
Using the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant acquired by the acquisition unit 11, the authentication unit 14 refers to pieces of biometric authentication information stored in the storage unit 12, which are respectively associated with credit score acquirers, and specifies a credit score acquirer. For example, an ID of a credit score acquirer is specified.
The registration unit 13 registers the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score acquirer in accordance with the result of comparison between the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant and biometric authentication information of credit score acquirers.
The registration unit 13 compares the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant with biometric authentication information of credit score acquirers.
In a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer, the registration unit 13 does not register the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score acquirer.
Also, in a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer, the registration unit 13 may register the credit score acquisition applicant as a credit score acquirer with a credit score of the registered credit score acquirer associated therewith. That is to say, in a case where a credit score acquirer has been specified, the registration unit 13 may register the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score acquirer, and also associate the new credit score acquirer with a credit score of the specified credit score acquirer.
The generation unit 15 inputs information (personal information) related to a credit score acquirer to a model, and generates a credit score of the credit score acquirer. Specifically, using data acquired from, for example, a company that holds personal information as an input, the generation unit 15 generates a credit score with use of a model generated by, for example, machine learning.
Conceivable examples of personal information (input parameter) include personal information such as the sex, age, academic background, and career, asset information such as deposits, shares, cars, and housing, credit information such as the history of purchase, loans, and the status of payment of public utility charges, interaction information such as the number and quality of friends and statements, behavior information such as purchased products, services that were used in the past, whether donations have been made, and the amount of donated money, information such as traffic violations, a criminal record, a judicial record, and the status of compensatory payment, and so forth.
In addition, personal information may also include, for example, the record of use of services (including evaluation scores provided by service providers), the record of provision of services (including evaluation scores provided by service users), and so forth. Furthermore, credit scores are updated as needed.
Note that while the generation unit 15 is provided inside the credit score management apparatus 10 in the example of
After the provision of a credit score has been cancelled, the holding unit 16 holds the credit score of a user who made the cancellation for a pre-set holding period.
Holding periods can be determined in advance based on, for example, terms of use of services. Holding periods may be the same, or may be set in accordance with, for example, personal information and credit scores of credit score acquirers. Note that in
Specifically, first, the holding unit 16 detects that the provision of a credit score has been cancelled. Subsequently, the holding unit 16 holds the credit score of the user (credit score acquirer) who made the cancellation for a pre-set period.
Also, in a case where a user who is the same as the user who made the cancellation has newly applied for acquisition of a credit score as a credit score acquisition applicant, the registration unit 13 does not register the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score registrant. That is to say, the credit score that has already been registered is continuously used.
Thereafter, in a case where the pre-set period has elapsed, the holding unit 16 deletes the credit score of the user who cancelled the provision of the credit score from the storage unit 12.
As described above, after the provision of a credit score is cancelled, the credit score of the user who made the cancellation is held for a pre-set period; thus, even if the user who made the cancellation applies again during the pre-set period, the held credit score is associated with the user who made the cancellation. As a result, the held credit score is continuously used, and the reliability of credit scores can be improved.
Note that in a case where a service business entity that deploys a service manages credit scores, cancellation of the service may be regarded as cancellation of a credit score. In this case, after a service accompanied by the provision of a credit score is cancelled, the holding unit 16 may hold a credit score of a credit score acquirer pertaining to the cancellation of the service for a pre-set period.
Also, in a case where a service business entity that deploys a service manages credit scores, when a pre-set period has elapsed since the cancellation of the service, the holding unit 16 deletes a credit score of a user who cancelled the service from the storage unit 12.
In a case where the biometric authentication information of a credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer, a first notification unit included in the notification unit 17 notifies the credit score acquisition applicant of the existence of a registered credit score (registration as the credit score acquirer).
That is to say, when application for request for management of a credit score is made, if a credit score has already been registered, the first notification unit included in the notification unit 17 makes notification to the terminal apparatus of the credit score acquisition applicant that the registered credit score is present. Note that when the terminal apparatus receives the notification, for example, a display indicating “there is a credit score that has already been registered” or the like is presented on a display of the terminal apparatus of the credit score acquisition applicant.
Notifying the credit score acquisition applicant in the foregoing manner enables the credit score acquisition applicant to understand that the credit score that has already been registered is continuously used or new registration is denied.
Also, when the service provider provides a service, or when the service user uses a service, the notification unit 17 notifies its partner or mediator (service mediation system) of the credit score.
For example, a display indicating “there is a credit score that has already been registered” or the like is presented on a screen of a display of the terminal apparatus 21 of the service user, the terminal apparatus 22 of the service provider, or both.
Also, when the service user uses the service, a second notification unit included in the notification unit 17 notifies the service user of the credit score held by the service provider. Specifically, first, the notification unit 17 acquires the credit score of the service provider from the storage unit 12.
For example, the service user makes a request for the provision of the credit score of the service provider when using the service. Based on this request, the notification unit 17 acquires the credit score of the service provider from the storage unit 12.
Subsequently, a third notification unit included in the notification unit 17 transmits the credit score of the service provider to the terminal apparatus 21, which is used by the service user, via the network 23. Conceivable examples of the credit score of the service provider include a score that has been generated based on the evaluations made by service users in relation to the service provider.
Thereafter, when the terminal apparatus 21 owned by the service user receives the credit score of the service provider, the credit score of the service provider is displayed in the display of the terminal apparatus 21 of the service user.
The above-described credit score of the service provider is used when, for example, the service user determines whether to use the service. Furthermore, the service user can consider which service provider's service is to be used by referring to credit scores of a plurality of service providers.
Also, the notification unit 17 notifies the service provider of the credit score of the service user. Specifically, first, the notification unit 17 acquires the credit score of the service user from the storage unit 12.
For example, in a case where a service user has made a request to use the service, the service provider makes a request for the provision of the credit score of the service user. Based on this request, the notification unit 17 acquires the credit score of the service user from the storage unit 12.
Subsequently, the notification unit 17 transmits the credit score of the service user to the terminal apparatus 22, which is used by the service provider, via the network 23.
Thereafter, when the terminal apparatus 22 used by the service provider receives the credit score of the service user, the credit score of the service user is displayed in the display of the terminal apparatus 22.
The above-described credit score of the service user is used when, for example, the service provider determines whether to approve the use of the service by the service user at the time of the use of the service by the service user.
At the time of the use of the credit score, it is preferable to gain consent from the service user and the service provider on the provision of the credit score.
Next, the operations of the credit score management apparatus in the example embodiment of the invention will be described using
A description is now given of registration of a credit score with use of
As shown in
Subsequently, the registration unit 13 compares the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant with biometric authentication information of credit score acquirers (step A2).
Subsequently, in a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer (step A3: Yes), the registration unit 13 does not register the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score acquirer (step A4).
In a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer, the registration unit 13 may register the credit score acquisition applicant as a credit score acquirer with a credit score of the registered credit score acquirer associated therewith as step A4.
Subsequently, in a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer, the notification unit 17 notifies the credit score acquirer of the presence of the registered credit score (step A5).
That is to say, in a case where the credit score has already been registered, the notification unit 17 notifies the credit score acquirers (the service user and the service provider, or one of them) or the service mediation system of the presence of the credit score that has already been registered.
For example, a display indicating “there is a credit score that has already been registered” or the like is presented in a display of the terminal apparatus 21 of the service user, the terminal apparatus 22 of the service provider, or both.
Also, in a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has not been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer (step A3: No), the registration unit 13 registers the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score acquirer (step A6).
A description is now given of holding of a credit score with use of
As shown in
Subsequently, in a case where a user who is the same as the user who made the cancellation has newly applied for acquisition of a credit score as a credit score acquisition applicant within the pre-set period (step B3: Yes), the registration unit 13 does not register the credit score acquisition applicant as a new credit score acquirer (step B4). That is to say, as the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant is held as biometric information of the credit score acquirer in association with the credit score, the held credit score is continuously used.
Also, in a case where the user who is the same as the user who made the cancellation has not newly applied for acquisition of a credit score (step B3: No), the holding unit 16 executes processing of step B5.
Subsequently, in a case where the pre-set period has elapsed (step B5: Yes), the holding unit 16 deletes the credit score of the user who made the cancellation from the storage unit 12 (step B6). Also, in a case where the pre-set period has not elapsed (step B5: No), processing proceeds to step B3.
Note that in a case where a service business entity that deploys a service manages credit scores, cancellation of the service may be regarded as cancellation of a credit score. In this case, after a service accompanied by the provision of a credit score is cancelled, the holding unit 16 may hold a credit score of a credit score acquirer pertaining to the cancellation of the service for a pre-set period.
Also, in a case where a service business entity that deploys a service manages credit scores, when a pre-set period has elapsed since the cancellation of the service, the holding unit 16 deletes a credit score of a user who cancelled the service from the storage unit 12.
A description is now given of notification of a credit score with use of
In a case where the biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant has been registered as biometric authentication information of a credit score acquirer, the first notification unit included in the notification unit 17 makes notification to the terminal of the credit score acquisition applicant that a credit score is present (the fact of being registered as the credit score acquirer).
Also, when the service provider provides a service, or when the service user uses a service, the notification unit 17 notifies its partner or mediator (service mediation system) of the credit score.
As shown in
Subsequently, the notification unit 17 makes notification of the credit score of the service provider to the terminal apparatus 21 of the service user (step C2). Specifically, in step C2, first, the notification unit 17 acquires the credit score of the service provider from the storage unit 12.
Subsequently, in step C2, the second notification unit included in the notification unit 17 transmits the credit score of the service provider to the terminal apparatus 21, which is used by the service user, via the network 23.
Thereafter, when the terminal apparatus 21 owned by the service user receives the credit score of the service provider, the credit score of the service provider is displayed in the display of the terminal apparatus 21 of the service user (step C3).
Subsequently, the notification unit 17 notifies the service provider of the credit score of the service user (step C4). Specifically, in step C4, first, the notification unit 17 acquires the credit score of the service user from the storage unit 12. Subsequently, in step C4, the third notification unit included in the notification unit 17 transmits the credit score of the service user to the terminal apparatus 22, which is used by the service provider, via the network 23.
Thereafter, when the terminal apparatus 22 used by the service provider receives the credit score of the service user, the credit score of the service user is displayed in the display of the terminal apparatus 22 (step C5).
Note that after step C3, a screen for allowing the service user to select whether to actually determine the use of the service can be displayed in the display of the terminal apparatus 21. Also, after step C5, a screen for allowing the selection of whether to approve the use of the service can be displayed in the display of the terminal apparatus 22.
As described above, according to the example embodiment, a credit score acquisition applicant is registered as a credit score acquirer in accordance with the result of comparison between biometric authentication information of the credit score acquisition applicant and biometric authentication information of credit score acquirers, and thus the reliability of credit scores can be improved.
Furthermore, in a case where a credit score has already been registered, the credit score acquirers (the service user and the service provider, or one of them) or the service mediation system is notified of the existence of the credit score that has already been registered; this can deter an application for a new credit score.
Also, after the provision of a credit score is cancelled, the credit score of the user who made the cancellation is held for a pre-set period; thus, even if the user who made the cancellation applies again during the pre-set period, the held credit score is associated with the user who made the cancellation, and therefore the held credit score is continuously used. Consequently, the reliability of credit scores can be improved.
In addition, as a result of notifying the service provider of the credit score of the service user, the service provider can refer to the credit score of the service user in judging whether to approve the use of a service by the service user. As a result of notifying the service user of the credit score of the service provider, the service user can refer to the credit score of the service provider in judging whether to use a service of the service provider.
The program according to an embodiment of the invention may be a program that causes a computer to execute steps A1 to A6 shown in
Also, the program according to the embodiment may be executed by a computer system constructed by a plurality of computers. In this case, for example, each computer may function as any of the acquisition unit 11, the storage unit 12, the authentication unit 14, the registration unit 13, the generation unit 15, the holding unit 16, and the notification unit 17.

In the authentication apparatus 71, an ID for the use of a biometric authentication service (first ID) and biometric authentication information are registered in association with each other. Note that, it is assumed that registration with the biometric authentication service is necessary in using a service that provides credit scores.
With use of biometric authentication information of a credit score acquisition applicant acquired by the acquisition unit 11, the authentication apparatus 71 refers to pieces of biometric authentication information that are respectively associated with credit score acquisition applicants, and specifies the credit score acquisition applicant. For example, an ID of the credit score acquisition applicant is specified.
Also, the credit score management apparatus 10 of the example modification does not hold biometric authentication information; an ID and a credit score of a credit score acquirer are registered in association with each other. This ID may be the same ID as the first ID, or may be an ID for the use of a credit score service (second ID). Note that in the latter case, the authentication apparatus 71 manages the first ID and the second ID in correspondence with each other.
