Abstract

See full text

In a method and apparatus for extracting programs suitable for individual subscriber taste from among all available television programs and for editing an individual subscriber television program list, objective data is statistically processed by linear programming. The processed results are input to a computer and are stored on a hard disk. The storage contents are read out from the hard disk and are printed out. Subscriber complaints about the program list are periodically fed back to improve prediction precision, thereby providing an automatic controller attuned to subscriber taste when the individual subscriber program list is used to automatically control a TV or VTR.
