Abstract

Claims (62)

1 . A method of operating an electronic device, the method comprising,

receiving, via a communication module, a first transmission of genetic information of a plurality of users classified as a user group;

receiving, via the communication module, a second transmission of a life log of a first user from among the plurality of users, the life log including biometric information of the first user as measured by a measuring device;

determining, via at least one processor, genetic characteristics of the user group, wherein the genetic characteristics indicate disease risks, based on statistics generated from the genetic information;

dividing, via the at least one processor, the genetic characteristics of the user group into subcategorizations, based on a prestored purpose or type of each of a plurality of IoT devices associated with the plurality of users; and

transmitting, via the communication module, a first subcategorization of the genetic characteristics to at least one IoT device having a prestored purpose and/or type corresponding to the first subcategorization, thereby causing the at least one IoT device to cross-reference the life log and the first subcategorization of the genetic characteristics, and provide; guidance data generated based on a first disease risk of the user included in the indicated disease risks, as identified through the cross-referencing of the life log and the first subcategorization.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of users belonging to the user group include users who satisfy at least one condition of designation or identification of a connection relationship when registering an account, or approval for a group-based service.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining the genetic characteristics of the user group includes determining second numerical values representing first numerical values indicating the genetic characteristics of each of the plurality of users, and

wherein the second numerical values include average, median, minimum or maximum value of the first numerical values.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the data includes information on the genetic characteristics of the user group, and

wherein the information on the genetic characteristics included in the data includes information processed according to a service provided by the device to output the data.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the providing the data includes transmitting the data to a device providing the service.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining information on a first user belonging to the user group;

estimating a family relationship with a second user belonging to the user group, based on genetic information of the first user; and

providing information on the estimated family relationship.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining information on a first user belonging to the user group;

estimating genetic information of the first user, based on genetic information of a second user belonging to the user group; and

storing the estimated genetic information.

8 . The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the data is generated, based on the life log, and

wherein the measuring device further includes an accelerometer and gyroscope, such that the life log includes movement information of the first user as measured over a period of time.

9 . An electronic device comprising:

at least one processor;

a communication module; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:

receive, via the communication module, a first transmission of genetic information of a plurality of users classified as a user group;

receive, via the communication module, a second transmission of a life log of a first user from among the plurality of users, the life log including biometric information of the first user as measured by a measuring device;

determine, via the at least one processor, genetic characteristics of the user group, wherein the genetic characteristics indicate disease risks based on statistics generated from the genetic information;

divide, via the at least one processor, the genetic characteristics of the user group into subcategorizations, based on a prestored purpose or type of each of a plurality of IoT devices associated with the plurality of users; and

transmit, via the communication module, a first subcategorization of the genetic characteristics to at least one IoT device having a prestored purpose and/or type corresponding to the first subcategorization, thereby causing the at least one IoT device to cross-reference the life log and the first subcategorization of the genetic characteristics, and provide guidance data generated based at least on a first disease risk of the first user included in the indicated disease risks, as identified through the cross-referencing of the life log and the first subcategorization.

10 . The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the plurality of users belonging to the user group satisfy at least one condition of designation or identification of a connection relationship when registering an account, or approval for a group-based service.

11 . The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to determine second numerical values representing first numerical values indicating genetic characteristics of each of a plurality of users, and

wherein the second numerical values include average, median, minimum or maximum value of the first numerical values.

12 . The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the data include information on the genetic characteristics of the user group, and

wherein the information on the genetic characteristics included in the data includes information processed according to a service provided by the device to output the data.

13 . The electronic device of claim 12 , further comprising a communication module,

wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:

transmit, through the communication module, the data to a device providing the service.

14 . The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:

obtain information on a first user belonging to the user group;

estimate a family relationship with a second user belonging to the user group, based on genetic information of the first user; and

provide information on the estimated family relationship.

15 . The electronic device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:

obtain information on a first user belonging to the user group;

estimate genetic information of the first user, based on genetic information of a second user belonging to the user group; and

store the estimated genetic information.

16 . The electronic device of claim 9 , further comprising a communication module,

wherein the data is generated based on the life log, and

wherein the measuring device further includes an accelerometer and gyroscope, such that the life log includes movement information of the first user as measured over a period of time.

17 . The electronic device of claim 9 , further comprising a display,

wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:

identify a family relationship between a first user and a second user belonging to the user group; and

display information on the family relationship between the first user and the second user.

18 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the providing the data includes displaying the data on a display.

19 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
