Air conditioner, control method, and non- transitory computer-readable storage medium
An air conditioner performs air conditioning control according to settings. The air conditioner collects, from each of communication terminals, setting history information based on a history of a setting selected from among the settings by a user of a respective one of the communication terminals. The air conditioner performs air conditioning control corresponding to any of the settings based on the setting history information which is collected.
1 . An air conditioner comprising:
at least one processor and/or at least one circuit configured to
collect from each of a plurality of communication terminals, setting history information including evaluation information based on a history of a setting selected from among a plurality of settings of the air conditioner by a user of a respective one of the plurality of communication terminals;
select a setting from among the plurality of settings based on the evaluation information; and
perform air conditioning control corresponding to the setting selected based on the evaluation information, wherein
the evaluation information includes an evaluation score based on the number of selections for each setting selected from among the plurality of settings by the user, and
the at least one processor and/or at least one circuit is further configured to
calculate leveled evaluation scores by leveling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals, so that a total score obtained by totaling the evaluation scores associated respectively with the plurality of settings becomes the same among the plurality of communication terminals, and
select a setting with a highest total score among total scores obtained by totaling the leveled evaluation scores for each setting.
2 . The air conditioner of claim 1 , wherein
the evaluation information includes an evaluation score based on the number of selections for each setting selected from among the plurality settings by the user, and
the at least one processor and/or at least one circuit is further configured to select a setting with a highest total score among total scores obtained by adding, for each setting, evaluation scores associated respectively with the plurality of settings.
3 . The air conditioner of claim 1 , wherein
the evaluation information includes an evaluation score for each setting, which is decremented when the setting selected from among the plurality of settings by the user is a setting before a change, and which is incremented when the setting selected is a setting after the change, and
the at least one processor and/or at least one circuit is further configured to select a setting with a highest total score among total scores obtained by adding, for each setting, evaluation scores associated respectively with the plurality of settings.
4 . An air conditioner comprising:
at least one processor and/or at least one circuit configured to
collect from each of a plurality of communication terminals, setting history information including evaluation information based on a history of a setting selected from among a plurality of settings of the air conditioner by a user of a respective one of the plurality of communication terminals;
select a setting from among the plurality of settings based on the evaluation information; and
perform air conditioning control corresponding to the setting selected based on the evaluation information, wherein
the evaluation information includes an evaluation score for each setting, which is decremented when the setting selected from among the plurality of settings by the user is a setting before a change, and which is incremented when the setting selected is a setting after the change, and
the at least one processor and/or at least one circuit is further configured to
calculate leveled evaluation scores by leveling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals, so that a total score obtained by totaling the evaluation scores associated respectively with the plurality of settings becomes the same among the plurality of communication terminals, and
select a setting with a highest total score among total scores obtained by totaling the leveled evaluation scores for each setting.
5 . The air conditioner of claim 1 , wherein
the at least one processor and/or at least one circuit is further configured to
for each of the plurality of communication terminals, rank each of the plurality of settings in descending order of the evaluation scores, and
level the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals by allocating scores respectively to the plurality of settings so that a setting with a higher rank is allocated with a higher evaluation score, and that a total score obtained by totaling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals becomes the same among the plurality of communication terminals.
6 . A control method of an air conditioner, the control method comprising:
collecting from each of a plurality of communication terminals, setting history information including evaluation information based on a history of a setting selected from among a plurality of settings of the air conditioner by a user of a respective one of the plurality of communication terminals;
selecting a setting from among the plurality of settings based on the evaluation information; and
performing air conditioning control corresponding to the setting selected based on the evaluation information, wherein
the evaluation information includes an evaluation score based on the number of selections for each setting selected from among the plurality of settings by the user, and
selecting the setting from among the plurality of settings based on the evaluation information comprises
calculating leveled evaluation scores by leveling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals, so that a total score obtained by totaling the evaluation scores associated respectively with the plurality of settings becomes the same among the plurality of communication terminals, and
selecting a setting with a highest total score among total scores obtained by totaling the leveled evaluation scores for each setting.
7 . The air conditioner of claim 4 , wherein
the at least one processor and/or at least one circuit is further configured to
for each of the plurality of communication terminals, rank each of the plurality of settings in descending order of the evaluation scores, and
level the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals by allocating scores respectively to the plurality of settings so that a setting with a higher rank is allocated with a higher evaluation score, and that a total score obtained by totaling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals becomes the same among the plurality of communication terminals.
8 . The control method of claim 6 , further comprising
decrementing the evaluation score when the setting selected from among the plurality of settings by the user is a setting before a change, and incrementing the evaluation score when the setting selected is a setting after the change.
9 . The control method of claim 6 , wherein
selecting the setting from among the plurality of settings based on the evaluation information further comprises
for each of the plurality of communication terminals, ranking each of the plurality of settings in descending order of the evaluation scores, and
leveling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals by allocating scores respectively to the plurality of settings so that a setting with a higher rank is allocated with a higher evaluation score, and that a total score obtained by totaling the evaluation scores for each of the plurality of communication terminals becomes the same among the plurality of communication terminals.
