In this case, although not illustrated, expert opinion data, such as background explanations on the prices and minimum values for tampering prevention presented by the experts A, B, and C, are naturally included.

[0062] The collective intelligence converging system converges opinions of the participants by providing the background knowledge and compensation regulations for the result for converging collective intelligence provided by the requestor to terminals of participants registered as participant members in the collective intelligence converging system by using the expert opinion data on the price of the new mobile phone and the minimum value of tampering prevention as background knowledge. In this case, some of the participants will present numerical values based on purely subjective judgment about the price of the new mobile phone, but most of the participants refer to the background knowledge of the experts and the provided compensation regulations, so that subjectivity of participants is largely excluded and presentation of numerical values may be converged close to the expert opinions.

[0063] The participants also present an estimated price of the new mobile phone and the minimum number of persons capable of preventing tampering of numerical values. The example of FIG. 11 illustrates an example in which the intelligence of 10 participants is converged. The average price of 10 mobile phones is 808,900 won, and the average value of the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention is 85,800, which is an example of converging collective intelligence opinions. In the example, for convenience of explanation, the estimated price of the mobile phone and the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention are presented only up to a unit of 100 won, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The units of the amount and the numerical value may be used up to a 1-won unit and up to a decimal point or more.

[0064] In the process of converging the collective intelligence on the price of the mobile phone in the collective intelligence converging system, when the requestor presents the minimum number of participants for tampering prevention, for example, the requestor presented the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention as 100,000. When the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention converged in the collective intelligence converging system is 85,800, the operation computer of the numerical determination system of the present invention may check whether to accept the opinions of collective intelligence determined by the collective intelligence converging system, the mobile phone price of 808,900 won, and the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention of 85,800, even if the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention presented by the requestor is less than 100,000, which are presented by the requestor terminal. When the requestor accepts the mobile phone price of 808,900 won and the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention of 85,800 which are numerical values presented by the operation computer, the numerical value of the mobile phone price of 808,900 won is determined as it is. When the requestor expresses the intention not to accept it, the operation computer continues to converge the collective intelligence of the participants until the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention reaches 100,000 persons presented by the requestor. Finally, when the numerical determination of the mobile phone price is completed when the minimum number of persons for tampering prevention reaches 100,000 persons, the operation computer provides the finally determined mobile phone price to the requestor terminal, and allocates compensation to the participants who contributed to the numerical determination by applying compensation regulations.

[0065] FIG. 12 is an exemplary view for describing an embodiment of a basic compensation among compensations of participants who contribute to the numerical determination of the numerical determination system of the present invention.

[0066] As illustrated in FIG. 12, the basic compensation of the present invention is a compensation to be compulsorily provided by the requestor, and it is preferred that the requestor set a certain amount as compensation and deposit the amount in the operation computer. The regulations of the basic compensation may target at least one participant who accurately matches the final determined value (mobile phone price) and participants who provide the closest numerical value among numerical values above and below the final determined numerical value. In this case, it is possible to set the total number of participants to be compensated. For example, 10% of the participants participating in the collective intelligence converging system may be set as a subject for basic compensation.

[0067] In FIG. 12, when the requestor sets, for example, 100 million won as the basic compensation for numerical determination, if the mobile phone price determined by the final numerical determination is 808,900 won, among the participants, at least one participant who presented the mobile phone price of 808,900 won is set as a first ranking, and for example, the first ranking distribution rate is set at 50%, and 50,000,000 won is allocated to the first ranking participant as the compensation. In addition, as the amount more than and less than the first ranking price, a second ranking and a third ranking are set in the order closest to the first ranking price, and for example, the second ranking distribution rate of the total compensation amount to the second ranking is set at 15% and 15,000,000 won may be allocated to the second ranking participant as the compensation, and the third ranking distribution rate of the total compensation amount to the third ranking is set at 10% and 10,000,000 won may be allocated to the third ranking participant as the compensation. Here, the amount of compensation allocated per participant for each ranking may be the amount obtained by dividing the amount of compensation allocated for the corresponding ranking by the number of corresponding participants.

[0068] FIG. 13 is an exemplary view for describing an embodiment of performance compensation among compensations of participants who contribute to the numerical determination of the numerical determination system of the present invention.

[0069] As illustrated in FIG. 13, the performance compensation of the present invention may be a configuration which is operated to be self-set by the requestor and voluntarily performed, but manages the performance compensation execution rate and reliability of the requestor by checking whether or not the performance has been achieved in the system of the present invention. For example, when the business is performed using the numerical value (mobile phone price) finally determined in the collective intelligence converging system and the requestor achieves an object set for each issue, like the basic compensation, the performance compensation may be configured to pay compensation to participants in the first to third rankings of numerical determination.

[0070] In FIG. 13, the requestor sets Issues 1 to 5 for the result of performing the business related to the numerical determination. For example, Issue 1 has been set to allocate 10% of the increase in sales as performance compensation, Issue 2 has been set to allocate 20% of the increase in net profit as performance compensation, Issue 3 has been set to allocate 5% of the increase in net profit as performance compensation, Issue 4 has been set to allocate 15% of the increase in sales as performance compensation, and Issue 5 has been set to allocate 10% of cost savings as performance compensation. In an example of FIG. 13, in Issue 1, it was determined that the condition was not achieved, and Issue 2 is a case where the condition is not achieved, but there was no increase in net profit, but sales increased, and the execution rate of the requestor for performance compensation was calculated as 100%. In Issue 3, since the condition is achieved, the requestor needs to transfer a promised performance compensation amount to the operation computer of the present invention, and the execution rate of the requestor is calculated as 100%, so that the operation computer pays the performance compensation to participants of the allocation of basic compensation. In Issue 4, since the condition is achieved, the requestor needs to transfer a promised performance compensation amount to the operation computer of the present invention, and the execution rate of the requestor is calculated as 70%, so that the operation computer pays the performance compensation to participants of the allocation of basic compensation. In Issue 5, since the condition is achieved, the requestor needs to transfer a promised performance compensation amount to the operation computer of the present invention, and the execution rate of the requestor is calculated as 50%, so that the operation computer pays the performance compensation to participants of the allocation of basic compensation.

[0071] In this case, the operation computer may calculate an average value by calculating the execution rate of the requestor, and reflect the average value as the reliability of the requestor.

[0072] The process of the numerical determination system of the present invention described above, and an example of calculating the result will be described as an example of determining a price of a mobile phone as a new product. In addition, it is natural that various cases requiring rational and objective factors may be applied to numerical determination, such as construction budgets, employment expansion of companies, and wages of the companies.
