A server may include a communication interface for receiving a plurality of profile information from a plurality of terminals; and a processor configured to divide users of the plurality of terminals into a plurality of groups based on a first criterion, to divide users of a first gender included in each group into a plurality of subgroups based on a second criterion different from the first criterion, to divide users of a second gender different from the first gender, included in each group into a plurality of matching groups to correspond to each of the plurality of subgroups, and to provide profile information of users included in each of the plurality of matching groups corresponding to each of the plurality of subgroups among the plurality of profile information to users included in each of the plurality of subgroups.
1. A method of providing a mediation service of a server providing a mediation service between a plurality of terminals, the method comprising:
receiving, at a communication interface of the server using at least one processor, a plurality of profile information from the plurality of terminals;
dividing, using the processor, users of the plurality of terminals into a plurality of groups based on a first criterion, wherein the first criterion includes a first plurality of criteria of which a different weight is applied to each criterion in the first plurality of criteria;
dividing, using the processor, users of a first gender included in each group into a plurality of subgroups based on a second criterion different from the first criterion, wherein the second criterion includes a second plurality of criteria of which a different weight is applied to each criterion in the second plurality of criteria;
dividing, using the processor, users of a second gender, different from the first gender, included in each group into a plurality of matching groups based on a degree of attraction according to a matching history with the users of the first gender included in each of the plurality of subgroups, wherein each matching group of the plurality of matching groups corresponds to a subgroup of the plurality of subgroups;
providing, using the processor, profile information of users included in each of the plurality of matching groups corresponding to each of the plurality of subgroups among the plurality of profile information to terminals of the users included in each of the plurality of subgroups; and
mediating communication between at least two terminals of the plurality of terminals based on the profile information provided to the terminals of the users included in each of the plurality of subgroups.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first criterion is one of a country, cities, blood types, hobbies, and specialties of the users of the first gender.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second criterion is one of ages, hobbies, specialties, blood types, heights, and tastes of the users of the first gender.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the users included in each of the plurality of subgroups have the same feature based on the second criterion.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the providing of the profile information of the users comprises
providing profile information of users included in a first matching group corresponding to a first subgroup among the plurality of matching groups to the users included in the first subgroup among the plurality of subgroups,
wherein the users included in the first subgroup have a first feature.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first matching group includes users selected based on a match history with the users of the first gender having the first feature among the users of the second gender.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the users included in the first matching group are selected based on at least one of a history of exchanging signs of mutual attraction with the users of the first gender having the first feature, a history of receiving signs of attraction from the users of the first gender having the first feature, a history of transmitting signs of attraction to the users of the first gender having the first feature, and a history of transmitting signs of unattraction to the users of the first gender having the first feature.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the first matching group includes, among the users of the second gender, first users who have exchanged signs of mutual attraction greater than or equal to a first threshold value with the users of the first gender having the first feature, second users who have received signs of attraction greater than or equal to a second threshold value from the users of the first gender having the first feature, third users who have transmitted signs of attraction greater than or equal to a third threshold value to the users of the first gender having the first feature, and fourth users who have transmitted signs of unattraction greater than or equal to a fourth threshold value to the users of the first gender having the first feature.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the providing of the profile information of the users comprises providing profile information of the first to fourth users included in the first matching group to the users included in the first subgroup.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first criterion has a first weight and the second criterion has a different second weight.
11. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing the method of claim 1 .
12. A server comprising:
a communication interface for receiving a plurality of profile information from a plurality of terminals; and
a processor configured to:
divide users of the plurality of terminals into a plurality of groups based on a first criterion, wherein the first criterion includes a first plurality of criteria of which a different weight is applied to each criterion in the first plurality of criteria;
divide users of a first gender included in each group into a plurality of subgroups based on a second criterion different from the first criterion, wherein the second criterion includes a second plurality of criteria of which a different weight is applied to each criterion in the second plurality of criteria;
divide users of a second gender different from the first gender, included in each group into a plurality of matching groups based on a degree of attraction according to a matching history with the users of the first gender included in each of the plurality of subgroups, wherein each matching group of the plurality of matching groups corresponds to a subgroup of the plurality of subgroups;
provide profile information of users included in each of the plurality of matching groups corresponding to each of the plurality of subgroups among the plurality of profile information to terminals of the users included in each of the plurality of subgroups; and
mediate communication between at least two terminals of the plurality of terminals based on the profile information provided to the terminals of the users included in each of the plurality of subgroups.
13. The server of claim 12 , further comprising: a memory configured to store the plurality of profile information, information on the plurality of groups, and information on the plurality of matching groups.
14. The server of claim 12 , wherein the processor provides profile information of users included in a first matching group corresponding to a first subgroup among the plurality of matching groups to the users included in the first subgroup among the plurality of subgroups,
wherein the users included in the first subgroup have a first feature.
15. The server of claim 14 , wherein the users included in the first matching group are selected based on at least one of a history of exchanging signs of mutual attraction with the users of the first gender having the first feature, a history of receiving signs of attraction from the users of the first gender having the first feature, a history of transmitting signs of attraction to the users of the first gender having the first feature, and a history of transmitting signs of unattraction to the users of the first gender having the first feature.
16. The server of claim 15 , wherein the first matching group includes, among the users of the second gender, first users who have exchanged signs of mutual attraction greater than or equal to a first threshold value with the users of the first gender having the first feature, second users who have received signs of attraction greater than or equal to a second threshold value from the users of the first gender having the first feature, third users who have transmitted signs of attraction greater than or equal to a third threshold value to the users of the first gender having the first feature, and fourth users who have transmitted signs of unattraction greater than or equal to a fourth threshold value to the users of the first gender having the first feature.
17. The server of claim 12 , wherein the first criterion has a first weight and the second criterion has a different second weight.
