SUMMARY OF INVENTION
Technical Problem

The amount of money (compensation amount) to be paid per unit varies depending on the insurance product. However, in the information processing device described in Patent Literature 1, since the insurance premium is allocated without considering the compensation amount, there is a possibility that the loss cannot be sufficiently compensated.


The present disclosure describes a recommendation device capable of optimizing a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums.


Solution to Problem

A recommendation device according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a determination unit that determines a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums to be paid to the insurance products from among a plurality of insurance products based on a risk degree indicating a degree of damage caused to a user due to an event to be compensated for by each of the plurality of insurance products and a compensation degree indicating a degree of compensation by each of the plurality of insurance products; and an output unit that outputs recommendation information indicating the combination and the insurance premiums.


In the recommendation device, a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums to be paid to the insurance products are determined from among a plurality of insurance products based on a risk degree and a compensation degree of each of the plurality of insurance products, and recommendation information is output. Since not only the risk degree but also the compensation degree is considered, for example, the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums can be determined so as to be compensated for various risks of the user in a balanced manner. As a result, it is possible to optimize the combination of insurance products and the insurance premiums.

A recommendation system 1 shown in FIG. 1 is a system for recommending a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums (portfolio) to a user.


The recommendation system 1 includes a plurality of terminal devices 2, a user information DB 3, an insurance subscription information DB 4, and a recommendation device 10. The plurality of terminal devices 2, the user information DB 3, the insurance subscription information DB 4, and the recommendation device 10 are configured to be able to communicate with each other via a network NW. The network NW may be configured in a wired or wireless manner. Examples of the network NW include a mobile communication network, the Internet, and a wide area network (WAN). In the following description, a description will be given mainly focusing on one terminal device 2, but the same applies to other terminal devices 2.


The terminal device 2 is a device used by a user. Examples of the terminal device 2 include a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a laptop, and a desktop personal computer (PC).


The terminal device 2 acquires position information (latitude and longitude) of the terminal device 2 using a global positioning system (GPS) or the like. The terminal device 2 may acquire information on a position where a master station of a wireless network to which the terminal device 2 is connected is installed as the position information. Examples of the position where the master station is installed include a base station of a mobile network and an access point of Wi-Fi. The terminal device 2 may acquire position information of a terminal present in the vicinity of the terminal device 2 as the position information of the terminal device 2. Examples of such a terminal include a beacon terminal of Bluetooth (registered trademark). Details of the position information will be described later. The terminal device 2 periodically transmits the position information to the user information DB 3.


The terminal device 2 generates settlement information related to settlement performed by the user using the terminal device 2. For example, when the user purchases a product using a settlement application installed in the terminal device 2, the terminal device 2 generates settlement information. Details of the settlement information will be described later. The terminal device 2 transmits the settlement information to the user information DB 3, for example, every time the settlement information is generated.


The user information DB 3 is a database that stores user information of each user. The user information is information about a user, and includes user basic information, position information, and settlement information. The user information may further include other information such as a use history (log) of the terminal device 2. The user basic information is basic information of the user. As shown in FIG. 2(a), the user basic information includes a user identifier (ID), a terminal ID, sex, and age. The user ID is information capable of uniquely identifying a user. The terminal ID is information capable of uniquely identifying the terminal device 2. Here, the terminal ID indicates the terminal device 2 used by the user identified by the user ID. The user basic information may further include other information. The user basic information is set in advance by the user, for example.


The position information is information indicating the position of each terminal device. As shown in FIG. 2(b), the position information includes a terminal ID, a time (time stamp) at which the position information is acquired, a latitude, and a longitude. When receiving the position information from each terminal device 2, the user information DB 3 stores the received position information. In the user information DB 3, a plurality of pieces of position information of each terminal device 2 are stored as a history (log) of the position information.


The settlement information is information related to settlement performed using each terminal device 2. As shown in FIG. 2(c), the settlement information includes a terminal ID, a time when the settlement is performed, a place where the settlement is performed, an amount of money, and a product name. When receiving the settlement information from each terminal device 2, the user information DB 3 stores the received settlement information. In the user information DB 3, a plurality of pieces of settlement information of each terminal device 2 are stored as a history of the settlement information.


The insurance subscription information DB 4 is a database that stores insurance subscription information of each user. The insurance subscription information is information related to an insurance product to which each user subscribes. As shown in FIG. 3, the insurance subscription information includes an insurance ID, a user ID, and an insurance premium. The insurance ID is information capable of uniquely identifying an insurance product. The insurance premium is the amount of money that the user identified by the user ID pays for the insurance product identified by the insurance ID. The insurance premium is, for example, an insurance premium per month. The insurance subscription information may include the number of purchased units in place of the insurance premium, or may include the number of purchased units together with the insurance premium.


The recommendation device 10 is a device that recommends an optimal combination of insurance products and optimal insurance premiums to a user from among a plurality of insurance products. An example of the recommendation device 10 is an information processing device such as a server device.


A functional configuration of the recommendation device 10 will be described with reference to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the recommendation device shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 4, the recommendation device 10 functionally includes an acquisition unit 11, a generation unit 12, a calculation unit 13, a risk score storage unit 14, a calculation unit 15, a damage amount storage unit 16, a reception unit 17, a determination unit 18, an output unit 19, and an insurance product information storage unit 20.


The acquisition unit 11 is a functional unit that acquires user information and insurance subscription information. The acquisition unit 11 acquires user information from the user information DB 3 and acquires insurance subscription information from the insurance subscription information DB 4.


The generation unit 12 is a functional unit that generates a subscription prediction model and an insurance premium prediction model. The subscription prediction model is a machine learning model in which a feature generated from user information is used as an explanatory variable and a subscription score of an insurance product is used as an objective variable, and is configured by, for example, a neural network. The subscription score is a value indicating a possibility that the user subscribes to the insurance product. The subscription score is a numerical value within a range of 0 to 1, for example. For example, the larger the subscription score of an insurance product, the more likely the user will subscribe to the insurance product. The generation unit 12 generates a subscription prediction model of each insurance product by performing machine learning for each insurance product.


The insurance premium prediction model is a machine learning model in which a feature generated from user information is used as an explanatory variable and a predicted insurance premium is used as an objective variable, and is configured by, for example, a neural network. The predicted insurance premium is an insurance premium that the user is predicted to pay for the insurance product, and is obtained by, for example, multiplying the insurance premium per unit by the number of purchased units. The generation unit 12 generates an insurance premium prediction model of each insurance product by performing machine learning for each insurance product. A method of generating a feature, a method of generating a subscription prediction model, and a method of generating an insurance premium prediction model will be described later.


The calculation unit 13 is a functional unit that calculates a risk score for each of the plurality of insurance products based on the user information. The risk score is a value indicating a possibility (occurrence probability) that an event to be compensated for by the insurance product occurs in the user. The subscription score is considered to have a correlation with the risk score. Therefore, the calculation unit 13 calculates the risk score based on the subscription score. The calculation unit 13 calculates a subscription score using the subscription prediction model. The calculation unit 13 generates a feature from the user information and inputs the generated feature to the subscription prediction model to obtain a subscription score from the subscription prediction model. For example, the calculation unit 13 may use the subscription score as the risk score, or may calculate the risk score by multiplying the subscription score by a predetermined coefficient.


The risk score storage unit 14 is a functional unit that stores the risk score for each insurance product of each user. The risk score storage unit 14 stores, for example, a data set in which a user ID, an insurance ID, and a risk score are associated with one another.


The calculation unit 15 is a functional unit that calculates a predicted average damage amount for each of the plurality of insurance products based on the user information. The predicted average damage amount is an average amount of money that is predicted to be lost by an event to be compensated for by the insurance product. Since the predicted insurance premium is predicted as an amount of money that can compensate for an amount of damage caused by an event to be compensated for by the insurance product, the predicted insurance premium is considered to have a correlation with the predicted average damage amount. Therefore, the calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted average damage amount based on the predicted insurance premium. The calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted insurance premium using the insurance premium prediction model. The calculation unit 15 generates a feature from the user information and inputs the generated feature to the insurance premium prediction model to obtain a predicted insurance premium from the insurance premium prediction model. The calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted average damage amount by multiplying the predicted insurance premium by a predetermined coefficient, for example.


The damage amount storage unit 16 is a functional unit that stores the predicted average damage amount for each insurance product of each user. The damage amount storage unit 16 stores, for example, a data set in which a user ID, an insurance ID, and a predicted average damage amount are associated with one another.


The reception unit 17 is a functional unit that receives a recommendation request from the terminal device 2. The recommendation request is a command for requesting recommendation information of an insurance product. The recommendation request includes the user ID of the user who requests the recommendation information and the payable amount Costmax. The payable amount Costmax is set by the user and is an upper limit amount of money which the user can pay for insurance products. The payable amount Costmax is, for example, an upper limit amount of money that the user can pay for insurance products per month.


The determination unit 18 is a functional unit that determines a portfolio of insurance products to be recommended to the user. The portfolio of insurance products includes a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums paid for each insurance product. Specifically, the determination unit 18 determines a combination of insurance products to be recommended to the user and an insurance premium to be paid to each insurance product from among a plurality of (n) insurance products based on the risk degree and the compensation degree of each of the plurality of insurance products. The risk degree is a value indicating the degree of damage caused to the user by an event to be compensated for by the insurance product. For example, a larger risk degree indicates a larger degree of damage. The compensation degree is a value indicating the degree of compensation by the insurance product. For example, a larger degree of compensation indicates a larger degree of compensation.


The determination unit 18 determines the portfolio of the insurance products so that the sum of the remaining risk degrees for the plurality of insurance products is minimized. The remaining risk degree is obtained by subtracting the compensation degree from the risk degree, for example. The determination unit 18 determines a portfolio of insurance products within the range of the payable amount Costmax set by the user. The details of the method of determining the portfolio of insurance products will be described later.


The output unit 19 is a functional unit that outputs recommendation information indicating a portfolio of insurance products (combination of insurance products and insurance premiums). The output unit 19 outputs (transmits), for example, recommendation information to the terminal device 2. The output unit 19 may output the recommendation information to a memory (not shown) in the recommendation device 10.


The insurance product information storage unit 20 is a functional unit that stores insurance product information related to each insurance product. The insurance product information of each insurance product includes, for example, an insurance premium Cost per unit, a compensation amount Ci per unit, and a lower limit value LBi and an upper limit value UBi of the number of purchased units. The number i of the insurance product is an integer value equal to or larger than 1 and equal to or less than the total number n of insurance products that can be recommended.


Next, a recommendation method performed by the recommendation system 1 (recommendation device 10) will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 7. FIG. 5 is a sequence diagram showing a series of processes of a recommendation method performed by the recommendation system shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing in detail the determination process shown in FIG. 5. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a display screen of recommendation information.


As shown in FIG. 5, first, the acquisition unit 11 of the recommendation device 10 transmits an acquisition request for the user information to the user information DB 3 (step S1). In step S1, the acquisition unit 11 may transmit an acquisition request for acquiring the user information of all users or may transmit an acquisition request for acquiring the user information of some users. Then, upon receiving the acquisition request for the user information from the recommendation device 10, the user information DB 3 transmits the requested user information to the recommendation device 10 (step S2).


Subsequently, the acquisition unit 11 of the recommendation device 10 transmits an acquisition request for the insurance subscription information to the insurance subscription information DB 4 (step S3). In step S3, the acquisition unit 11 transmits, for example, an acquisition request for acquiring insurance subscription information for all the insurance products that can be recommended. Then, upon receiving the acquisition request for the insurance subscription information from the recommendation device 10, the insurance subscription information DB 4 transmits the requested insurance subscription information to the recommendation device 10 (step S4).


When receiving the user information from the user information DB 3 and the insurance subscription information from the insurance subscription information DB 4, the acquisition unit 11 of the recommendation device 10 outputs the user information and the insurance subscription information to the generation unit 12. Subsequently, upon receiving the user information and the insurance subscription information from the acquisition unit 11, the generation unit 12 generates a subscription prediction model (step S5). In step S5, the generation unit 12 generates a subscription prediction model of each insurance product by performing machine learning for each insurance product. The machine learning is performed using, for example, a gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) algorithm. In the machine learning, for example, a set of a feature generated from user information of a user who has subscribed to an insurance product in the past and a subscription score (=1) of the insurance product is used as correct data, and a set of a feature generated from user information of a user who has not subscribed to the insurance product and a subscription score (=0) of the insurance product is used as incorrect data. Then, the generation unit 12 outputs the subscription prediction model to the calculation unit 13.


Here, an example of a method for generating a feature will be described. The generation unit 12 uses the gender and age of the user information as features. The generation unit 12 may estimate a place where the user has stayed and a stay time from the time-series position information of the terminal device 2, and may use the stay place and the stay time as features. Further, in order to reduce the influence of the place where the user does not normally visit but happens to stay on the subscription score, the temporal change of the stay place and the stay time may be used as features. The generation unit 12 calculates the number of times of settlement, the number of stores in which settlement has been performed, and the total of the settlement amount as features from the settlement information of the terminal device 2. The amount of money for each genre of the settled product (service) may be used as a feature.


Further, the generation unit 12 generates an insurance premium prediction model (step S6). In step S6, the generation unit 12 generates an insurance premium prediction model of each insurance product by performing machine learning for each insurance product. The machine learning is performed using, for example, a GBDT algorithm. In the machine learning, for example, a set of a feature generated from user information of a user who has subscribed to an insurance product in the past and an insurance premium paid to the insurance product by the user is used as correct data. The method of generating the feature is as described above. Then, the generation unit 12 outputs the insurance premium prediction model to the calculation unit 15.


Subsequently, the acquisition unit 11 transmits an acquisition request for acquiring the user information of all users to the user information DB 3 (step S7). Then, upon receiving the acquisition request for the user information from the recommendation device 10, the user information DB 3 transmits the requested user information to the recommendation device 10 (step S8). Upon receiving the user information from the user information DB 3, the acquisition unit 11 outputs the user information to the calculation unit 13 and the calculation unit 15.


Subsequently, upon receiving the user information from the acquisition unit 11, the calculation unit 13 calculates a risk score of each user for each of the plurality of insurance products (step S9). In step S9, the calculation unit 13 first calculates a subscription score using the subscription prediction model. Specifically, the calculation unit 13 generates the feature from the user information of each user in the same manner as the generation method of the feature by the generation unit 12. Then, the calculation unit 13 inputs the feature to the subscription prediction model of each insurance product for each user, and obtains the subscription score output from each subscription prediction model. Then, the calculation unit 13 calculates the risk score by multiplying the subscription score by a predetermined coefficient, for example. Then, the calculation unit 13 outputs a data set in which the user ID, the insurance ID, and the risk score are associated with each other to the risk score storage unit 14 and causes the risk score storage unit 14 to store the data set.


Subsequently, upon receiving the user information from the acquisition unit 11, the calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted average damage amount of each user for each of the plurality of insurance products (step S10). In step S10, the calculation unit 15 first calculates a predicted insurance premium using the insurance premium prediction model. Specifically, the calculation unit 15 generates the feature from the user information of each user in the same manner as the generation method of the feature by the generation unit 12. Then, the calculation unit 15 inputs the feature to the insurance premium prediction model of each insurance product for each user, and obtains the predicted insurance premium output from each insurance premium prediction model. Then, the calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted average damage amount by multiplying the predicted insurance premium by a predetermined coefficient. Then, the calculation unit 15 outputs a data set in which the user ID, the insurance ID, and the predicted average damage amount are associated with one another to the damage amount storage unit 16 and causes the damage amount storage unit 16 to store the data set.


Subsequently, the terminal device 2 transmits a recommendation request to the recommendation device 10 (step S11). When receiving the recommendation request transmitted from the terminal device 2, the reception unit 17 of the recommendation device 10 outputs the user ID and the payable amount Costmax included in the recommendation request to the determination unit 18.


Subsequently, upon receiving the user ID and the payable amount Costmax from the reception unit 17, the determination unit 18 performs a determination process (step S12). As shown in FIG. 6, in the determination process of step S12, the determination unit 18 first acquires a risk score ri for each insurance product of the user identified by the user ID (step S21). Specifically, the determination unit 18 acquires, from the risk score storage unit 14, sets of the insurance ID and the risk score ri associated with the user ID received from the reception unit 17.


Then, the determination unit 18 acquires the predicted average damage amount Lossi of the user identified by the user ID for each insurance product (step S22). Specifically, the determination unit 18 acquires, from the damage amount storage unit 16, sets of the insurance ID and the predicted average damage amount Lossi associated with the user ID received from the reception unit 17. Then, the determination unit 18 acquires the insurance product information on the n insurance products that can be recommended to the user (step S23). Specifically, the determination unit 18 acquires the insurance product information on the n insurance products from the insurance product information storage unit 20.


Subsequently, the determination unit 18 determines a portfolio of insurance products to be recommended to the user (step S24). In step S24, the determination unit 18 uses the sets of the insurance product ID and the risk scores ri acquired from the risk score storage unit 14, the sets of the insurance product ID and the predicted average damage amounts Lossi acquired from the damage amount storage unit 16, and the insurance product information acquired from the insurance product information storage unit 20 to determine a combination of insurance products to be recommended to the user and insurance premiums to be paid to each insurance product from among the n insurance products based on the risk degrees and compensation degrees for the n insurance products. In the present embodiment, the risk degree is a predicted damage amount caused by an event that is a compensation target of an insurance product, and the compensation degree is a compensation amount paid depending on an insurance premium of the insurance product.


Specifically, the determination unit 18 determines the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums such that the sum of the remaining damage amounts obtained by subtracting the compensation amounts from the predicted damage amounts for the n insurance products is minimized as shown in Equation (1). The predicted damage amount is obtained by multiplying the risk score ri by the predicted average damage amount Lossi. The compensation amount is obtained by multiplying the compensation amount Ci per unit by the number of purchased units xi. The number of purchased units xi is an integer value of 0 or more. When the compensation amount (=Ci×xi) is larger than the predicted damage amount (=ri×Lossi), it means overcompensation. In this case, the remaining damage amount is regarded as 0.

Equation (2) defines the upper limit number of insurance products that can be included in the portfolio, and represents a constraint condition that the sum of the selection flags ui of the first to n-th insurance products is equal to or less than the upper limit number K. The selection flag ui indicates whether the i-th insurance product is selected as an insurance product to be included in the portfolio. When the i-th insurance product is selected as an insurance product to be included in the portfolio, the selection flag ui is set to 1. When the i-th insurance product is not selected as an insurance product to be included in the portfolio, the selection flag ui is set to 0. Therefore, the determination unit 18 determines the number of insurance products so as to be within the upper limit number K.


Equation (3) defines an upper limit of the total amount of insurance premiums, and represents a constraint condition that the sum of the insurance premiums of the first to n-th insurance products is equal to or less than the payable amount Costmax. The insurance premium of each insurance product is obtained by multiplying the insurance premium Costi per unit by the number of purchased units xi. Therefore, the determination unit 18 determines the portfolio of insurance products within the range of the payable amount Costmax set by the user.


Equation (4) defines a lower limit and an upper limit of the number of purchased units of each insurance product, and represents a constraint condition that the number of purchased units xi of each insurance product is within a range from the lower limit value LBi to the upper limit value UBi. It should be noted that since the number of purchased units xi is 0 for an insurance product for which no one unit is purchased, the number of purchased units xi may not fall within the range from the lower limit value LBi to the upper limit value UBi. Therefore, the determination unit 18 determines the number of purchased units xi within a range from the multiplication result obtained by multiplying the lower limit value LBi by the selection flag ui to the multiplication result obtained by multiplying the upper limit value UBi by the selection flag ui.


Subsequently, the determination unit 18 generates recommendation information indicating the portfolio of the insurance products (step S25). For example, the determination unit 18 generates recommendation information including names and insurance premiums of the insurance products included in the portfolio. The recommendation information may further include the payable amount Costmax and a total amount of the insurance premiums (total payment amount). The recommendation information may further include a predicted damage amount and a compensation amount of each insurance product. Then, the determination unit 18 outputs the recommendation information to the output unit 19.


Subsequently, the output unit 19 transmits the recommendation information to the terminal device 2 (step S13). When receiving the recommendation information transmitted from the recommendation device 10, the terminal device 2 displays the recommendation information on the display. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the names and insurance premiums of the insurance products included in the portfolio are displayed together with a graph indicating the risk (predicted damage amount) and compensation (compensation amount) of each insurance product. Further, the total amount of the insurance premiums (total payment amount) is displayed together with the payable amount Costmax set by the user.


According to the display screen example of FIG. 7, how much the recommended insurance products compensate for the potential risk of the user is visually displayed. Therefore, it is possible to increase the user's sense of satisfaction. Since the user can recognize the missing compensation, it becomes clear what insurance product should be subscribed to when the user customizes the insurance products.


As described above, a series of processes of the recommendation method ends. Steps S1 to S10 are performed in advance before a recommendation request is received from the terminal device 2 (offline processing). Step S3 and step S4 may be performed before step S1 and step S2, or may be performed in parallel with step S1 and step S2. Step S6 may be performed before step S5, or may be performed in parallel with step S5. Step S10 may be performed before step S9, or may be performed in parallel with step S9. Steps S21 to S23 may be performed in any order, or may be performed in parallel with each other.


After step S11, steps S7 to S10 may be performed. In this case, in step S7, the acquisition unit 11 transmits an acquisition request for acquiring the user information of the user identified by the user ID included in the recommendation request to the user information DB 3, and in step S8, the user information DB 3 transmits the requested user information of the user to the recommendation device 10. Further, in step S9, the calculation unit 13 calculates the risk score of the user identified by the user ID included in the recommendation request, and outputs the risk score to the determination unit 18. In step S10, the calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted average damage amount of the user identified by the user ID included in the recommendation request, and outputs the predicted average damage amount to the determination unit 18.


In the recommendation device 10 described above, the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums to be paid to the insurance products are determined from among the n insurance products based on the predicted damage amount and the compensation amount of each of the n insurance products, and the recommendation information is output. Since not only the predicted damage amount but also the compensation amount is considered, for example, the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums can be determined so as to be compensated in a balanced manner with respect to various risks of the user. As a result, it is possible to optimize the combination of insurance products and the insurance premiums.


Specifically, the determination unit 18 determines the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums so that the sum of the remaining damage amounts obtained by subtracting the compensation amounts from the predicted damage amounts for the n insurance products is minimized. Since it can be said that the less the sum of the remaining damage amounts is, the more sufficient the preparation for all risks is, it can be said that the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums in which the sum of the remaining damage amounts is minimized are optimal for the user. Therefore, according to the above configuration, it is possible to optimize the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums.


The determination unit 18 calculates a predicted damage amount based on a risk score indicating an occurrence probability of an event that is a compensation target of the insurance product. According to the Cortney theory, the risk is obtained by multiplying the occurrence probability of the risk by the degree of influence. The degree of influence can be regarded as an average amount of damage. Accordingly, the predicted damage amount may be determined by multiplying the risk score ri by the predicted average damage amount Lossi.


For example, after the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums are presented to the user without considering the total payment amount, the user may adjust the insurance premium to be equal to or less than the payable amount Costmax. However, since the compensation content of the insurance product varies depending on the insurance premium, there is a possibility that optimum compensation cannot be obtained. In the recommendation device 10, the determination unit 18 determines a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums within a range of the payable amount Costmax set by the user. According to this configuration, the combination of insurance products and the insurance premiums are determined in consideration of the upper limit of the total payment amount, and recommended to the user. Therefore, it is possible to further optimize the combination of insurance products and the insurance premiums. Since the total payment amount is equal to or less than the payable amount Costmax, it is possible to increase the possibility that the user accepts the recommended content.


The calculation unit 13 calculates a subscription score indicating a possibility that the user subscribes to the insurance product for each of the n insurance products based on the user information, and calculates a risk score for each of the n insurance products based on the subscription score. It is considered that users having a common gender, age, behavior, and the like are equally likely to subscribe to insurance products. In addition, it is considered that the higher the possibility that the user subscribes to the insurance product, the higher the possibility that an event to be compensated for by the insurance product occurs in the user. In other words, there is a correlation between the subscription score and the risk score. Thus, the risk score may be obtained based on the subscription score. As described above, by using the user information, the risk score of each insurance product can be accurately calculated.


In order to directly calculate the risk score from the user information, it is necessary to use the user information of the user in which the event to be compensated for by the insurance product has actually occurred. However, since the event does not always occur frequently, a sufficient number of pieces of user information may not be obtained, and the calculation accuracy of the risk score may decrease. On the other hand, since it is considered that much more users than the number of users in which the event has occurred subscribe to the insurance product, the accuracy of calculating the subscription score from the user information is higher than the accuracy of calculating the risk score from the user information. Therefore, it is possible to improve the calculation accuracy of the risk score by using the subscription score.


Although embodiments of the present disclosure have been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments.


The recommendation device 10 may be configured by a single device coupled physically or logically, or may be configured by two or more devices that are physically or logically separated from each other. For example, the recommendation device 10 may be implemented by a plurality of computers distributed over a network such as cloud computing. As described above, the configuration of the recommendation device 10 may include any configuration that can realize the functions of the recommendation device 10.


The generation unit 12 may generate a risk prediction model instead of the subscription prediction model. The risk prediction model is a machine learning model in which a feature generated from user information is used as an explanatory variable and a risk score of an insurance product is used as an objective variable, and is configured by, for example, a neural network. The generation unit 12 may generate an average damage amount prediction model instead of the insurance premium prediction model. The average damage amount prediction model is a machine learning model in which a feature generated from user information is used as an explanatory variable and a predicted average damage amount occurring in a user due to an event to be compensated for by an insurance product is used as an objective variable, and is configured by, for example, a neural network.


The recommendation device 10 does not have to include the calculation unit 13 and the risk score storage unit 14. In this case, the determination unit 18 may acquire, from an external risk score storage unit, sets of the insurance ID and the risk score associated with the user ID included in the recommendation request. The recommendation device 10 does not have to include the calculation unit 15 and the damage amount storage unit 16. In this case, the determination unit 18 may acquire, from an external damage amount storage unit, sets of the insurance ID and the predicted average damage amount associated with the user ID included in the recommendation request. The recommendation device 10 does not have to include the insurance product information storage unit 20. In this case, the determination unit 18 may acquire the insurance product information from an external insurance product information storage unit.


The recommendation device 10 does not have to include the generation unit 12. In this case, the calculation unit 13 calculates the subscription score using a subscription prediction model generated in advance, and calculates the risk score based on the subscription score. The calculation unit 13 may calculate the subscription score on a rule basis or the like based on the user information without using the subscription prediction model, and calculate the risk score based on the subscription score. The calculation unit 13 may calculate the risk score using a risk prediction model generated in advance. The calculation unit 13 may calculate the risk score on a rule basis or the like based on the user information.


Similarly, the calculation unit 15 calculates the predicted insurance premium using an insurance premium prediction model generated in advance and calculates the predicted average damage amount based on the predicted insurance premium. The calculation unit 15 may calculate the predicted insurance premium on a rule basis or the like based on the user information without using the insurance premium prediction model, and calculate the predicted average damage amount based on the predicted insurance premium. The calculation unit 15 may calculate the predicted average damage amount using an average damage amount prediction model generated in advance. The calculation unit 15 may calculate the predicted average damage amount on a rule basis or the like based on the user information.


The recommendation device 10 does not have to include the acquisition unit 11, the generation unit 12, the calculation unit 13, the risk score storage unit 14, the calculation unit 15, the damage amount storage unit 16, and the insurance product information storage unit 20. In this case, the determination unit 18 may acquire, from an external risk score storage unit, the sets of the insurance ID and the risk score associated with the user ID included in the recommendation request, acquire, from an external damage amount storage unit, the sets of the insurance ID and the predicted average damage amount associated with the user ID, and acquire the insurance product information from an external insurance product information storage unit.


The compensation target of an insurance product varies depending on the insurance product, but the compensation targets of some insurance products may partially overlap. Therefore, the determination unit 18 may determine a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums further based on the correlation coefficient ρij. The correlation coefficient ρij is a value indicating the degree of correlation between two insurance products (the i-th insurance product and the j-th insurance product) among the n insurance products. The correlation coefficient ρij is a numerical value within a range of 0 to 1. A larger correlation coefficient ρij indicates a stronger correlation between the i-th insurance product and the j-th insurance product. The correlation coefficient ρij is calculated and set in advance for each of two insurance products among the n insurance products. The correlation coefficient ρij is included in the insurance product information, for example, and is acquired from the insurance product information storage unit 20.


Specifically, the determination unit 18 minimizes Equation (1) so as to further satisfy the constraint condition represented by Equation (5). Equation (5) represents a constraint condition that the sum of the degrees of overlap for all sets of two insurance products selectable from the n insurance products is less than the specified value Sa. The degree of overlap is a value indicating a degree to which compensation targets of two insurance products overlap. As the degree of overlap is larger, the degree to which compensation targets of two insurance products overlap is larger. As shown in the left side of Equation (5), the determination unit 18 calculates the degree of overlap based on the compensation amount and the correlation coefficient ρij for all sets of two insurance products selectable from the n insurance products, and calculates the sum of the degrees of overlap. As shown in FIG. 8, when the correlation coefficient is large, the degree of overlap becomes large. Then, the determination unit 18 determines the portfolio (combination and insurance premium) of the insurance products such that the sum of the degrees of overlap of all sets is less than the specified value Sa.

When several insurance products having strong correlations with each other are selected as a combination of the insurance products included in the portfolio, the range of events that can be compensated by the insurance products may be narrowed. In other words, risk concentration may occur. On the other hand, when several insurance products having weak correlations with each other are selected as a combination of the insurance products included in the portfolio, the range of events that can be compensated by the insurance products can be widened, and the risk can be distributed. Therefore, it can be said that the less the sum of the degrees of overlap for all sets of two insurance products selectable from the n insurance products is, the wider the range of compensation targets is. Therefore, by determining the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums such that the sum of the degrees of overlap is less than the specified value Sa, it is possible to further optimize the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums.


The risk degree is not limited to the predicted damage amount. The compensation degree is not limited to the compensation amount. For example, the risk score ri may be used as the risk degree. In this case, the compensation score Ci(xi) is used as the compensation degree. The compensation score Ci(xi) is a value indicating a possibility (probability) that the total amount of predicted damage caused by an event which is a compensation target of the insurance product can be compensated by the compensation amount paid depending on the insurance premium. The compensation score Ci(xi) is set in advance for each insurance product. The compensation score Ci(xi) is included in the insurance product information, for example, and is acquired from the insurance product information storage unit 20.


In the example shown in FIG. 9, the compensation score Ci (xi) is represented by the area of the probability density function. Since the compensation amount becomes higher as the insurance premium becomes higher, the possibility that the damage amount can be fully compensated increases. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, the compensation score Ci (xi) increases as the insurance premium increases. On the other hand, the possibility that a damage amount larger than the compensation amount occurs decreases as the compensation amount increases. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, the increase amount of the compensation score Ci (xi) per unit insurance premium (the number of purchased units) decreases as the insurance premium increases.


In this case, the determination unit 18 uses Equation (6) instead of Equation (1), and minimizes Equation (6) so as to satisfy the constraint conditions represented by Equations (2) to (4). That is, the determination unit 18 determines the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums such that the sum of the remaining risk scores obtained by subtracting the compensation scores Ci (xi) from the risk scores ri for the n insurance products is minimized, as shown in Equation (6). Note that when the compensation score Ci (xi) is larger than the risk score ri, it means overcompensation, and in this case, the remaining risk score is regarded as 0.

Furthermore, the determination unit 18 may determine a combination of insurance products and insurance premiums further based on the correlation coefficient ρij. Specifically, the determination unit 18 minimizes Equation (1) so as to further satisfy the constraint condition represented by Equation (7) instead of Equation (5). Equation (7) represents a constraint condition that the sum of the degrees of overlap for all sets of two insurance products selectable from the n insurance products is less than the specified value Sb. As shown in the left side of Equation (7), the determination unit 18 calculates the degree of overlap based on the compensation score and the correlation coefficient ρij for all sets of two insurance products selectable from the n insurance products, and calculates the sum of the degrees of overlap. Then, the determination unit 18 determines the portfolio (combination and insurance premium) of the insurance products such that the sum of the degrees of overlap of all sets is less than the specified value Sb.

In this modified example, based on the risk score ri and the compensation score Ci (xi) of each of the n insurance products, a combination of the insurance products and insurance premiums to be paid for the insurance products are determined from among the n insurance products, and recommendation information is output. Since not only the risk score ri but also the compensation score Ci (xi) is considered, for example, it is possible to determine the combination of the insurance products and the insurance premiums so as to be compensated in a balanced manner with respect to various risks of the user. As a result, it is possible to optimize the combination of insurance products and the insurance premiums.
