Abstract

The invention relates to a method for matching a characteristic, training or activity of a person and requirements of a workplace to a person.

Description

Methods for matching a person's characteristics with the requirements of a profession or workplace for that person

[0001] The invention disclosed herein relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 .

[0002] The invention disclosed herein relates to a computer-implemented method, in particular a computer-implemented simulation method for comparing the characteristics of a person on the one hand and the requirements of a profession or workplace for a person on the other.

[0003] The invention is based on the technical problem of verifying a person's suitability for a profession or workplace using computer-based methods. Since a person's suitability for a profession or workplace also depends on the interpersonal relationships of other persons working in that workplace or profession, the method according to the invention can also be used to verify whether the person meets the requirements of those other persons.

[0004] JP2002329088 discloses a method for matching an employer's requirements with the characteristics of potential employees. This document deals specifically with storing the data on different servers. However, this document provides no information on taking into account the changes over time in the influence of a person's characteristics, education, or activities on their suitability.

[0005] The following documents are known according to the prior art.

[0006] The method disclosed in US2009271240 uses production increases to model the experience level and performance of new and existing employees, as well as the turnover rates of all employees, as input values to create a future hiring and transition plan. It is found in this The document makes no reference to the consideration of a time-varying influence of a person's characteristic, education, or activity on that person's suitability for a job.

[0007] US2023129430 discloses a method comprehensively for creating an evaluation system and for determining hiring rates of potential employees. This document contains no reference to considering changes over time in a person's characteristics, changes over time in the importance of a person's education or work experience with regard to their suitability for a profession.

[0008] US2024112103 also covers the matching of possibilities and users in the workplace. There is no indication of considering time-varying characteristics or the changing importance of education or activity in relation to a person's suitability for the profession or workplace.

[0009] US2015339631 A1 discloses a method for matching the characteristics of a person as a job seeker with the characteristics of the job (see US2015339631 A1, [004]). US2015339631 A1 does not disclose the matching of the person's characteristics with reference characteristics stored in a reference database, so US2015339631 A1 does not disclose the determination and use of reference characteristics describing the person over a reference period instead of the use of person characteristics at a point in time.

[0010] CN101436277A also describes exclusively the direct comparison of the property data of the person and the property data of the workplace (see page 2 of the German translation, seventh paragraph and page 3 of the German translation, first paragraph of the detailed description of the invention). [0011] KR20230018598A also discloses a method with a direct comparison of the characteristics of the person and the characteristics of the workplace using standard methods (see KR20230018598A, [0026]).

[0012] CN108256827A and CN109614546A also do not provide any indication of an indirect comparison of the characteristic of the person and the characteristic of the workplace, as proposed in claim 1.

[0013] The invention disclosed herein aims to assess a person's suitability for a profession and/or a workplace not on the basis of static characteristics, a static educational status, or a static activity status. The invention aims to take into account changes over time, particularly future changes, in the characteristics, the importance of education, or an activity with regard to suitability.

[0014] Claim 1 comprises a first solution.

[0015] The first solution is characterized in that at least one property of the person entered via a property attribute is compared at at least one property time point with a plurality of reference properties defined via reference property attributes, which reference properties describe a temporal progression of a numerical reference property value (7, 8) over a reference property time span from a reference property time point onwards, wherein at least one reference property is selected which reference property is most similar to the at least one property, and the reference property time point is set equal to the property time point, so that for a time point t there is a temporal progression of the property value defined by the temporal progression of the reference property, which temporal progression of the property value at time point t describes the person at time point t. which property value at time t is compared with a target property value, which target property value is stored in a database for the workplace and/or is defined by a user, whereby if a property value is greater than or equal to the target property value, a positive suitability of the person for the workplace is determined, or if a property value is less than the target property value, a negative suitability of the person for the profession or workplace is determined.

[0016] The invention provides that, in a first step, the person's characteristic is entered via a characteristic attribute. The characteristic attribute can comprise a word and/or a numerical value. In the case of a combination of a word and a numerical value, the numerical value can indicate the extent to which the person fulfills the characteristic attribute described by the word. A high numerical value can describe a high degree of fulfillment of the characteristic attribute. A low numerical value can describe a low degree of fulfillment of the characteristic attribute.

[0017] To simplify the further processing of the input of the person's property via the property attribute, the method according to the invention can include predefined property attributes, which can be entered as predefined property attributes and a relevant numerical value as described above.

[0018] If the property is not entered via predefined property attributes, the method according to the invention can, for example, include neural networks for processing, in particular linking the input with a standardized further input, wherein, in the case of non-predefined inputs, the further input is entered into the method according to the invention instead of the input. [0019] The property is entered via the property attribute together with the entry of a property time point. The property time point describes when this property of the person exists or when it is determined.

[0020] The input of the property can include the input of a property attribute and multiple property time points. The input of the property can include the input of multiple properties via multiple property attributes at multiple property time points.

[0021] By entering the property, an interaction with physical reality, in particular with the actual property of a person, is created. The resulting technical effect, namely the determination of a property of the person at a time t preceding or following the time of execution of the procedure, is achieved by comparing the entered property with a multitude of reference properties.

[0022] A reference property comprises a reference attribute and a description of the temporal progression of a numerical reference property value from a reference property point in time. The description of the temporal progression of the reference property value documents the extent to which the reference attribute can be identified as a reference property for the reference person. For example, it can define how precise the reference person is or what proportion of assigned tasks the reference person completes with sufficient accuracy.

[0023] The reference property time point is set to the same as the entered property time point. This applies the temporal description of the reference property for time point t following the reference property time point to the temporal description of the person's property. It is assumed that the temporal progression of the person's property behaves similarly to the temporal progression of the reference property of the reference person. In particular, it is assumed that the temporal progression of the property attribute of the The person and the temporal progression of the reference attribute of the reference person are similar.

[0024] The description of a temporal progression of the reference property value is based on a database in which the development of a reference property of a reference person is stored over time. The database can, for example, be the result of a scientific study or conducted tests and may include several reference properties of several reference persons.

[0025] From the multitude of reference properties, at least one reference property is selected which reference property is most similar to the at least one property. Determining the reference property most similar to the input property is essentially a mathematical procedure according to established teaching, which mathematical procedure is based on the recognition of at least one mathematical pattern in the property of the person under consideration here and, optionally, the recognition of further mathematical patterns in other properties of the person. Furthermore, a comparison of the at least one recognized pattern with reference patterns of the reference properties and, optionally, of the further pattern in other reference patterns of the reference person can be carried out, determining a similarity value or a common similarity value in each case. According to established teaching, a similarity value is suitable for describing a similarity between a property and a reference property by a numerical value. The reference property with the highest numerical similarity value, and thus the greatest similarity, can be selected.

[0026] Using the selected reference property, which describes the temporal evolution of the reference property and, by equating the reference property time and the property time, an assumed evolution of the property from the property time onwards, the property value can be determined at a time t following the property time. This is done under the assumption that the reference property value and the property value is similar at time t. In particular, the numerical value of the property value can be determined, which numerical value describes the extent of the occurrence of the property attribute at time t.

[0027] The method according to the invention is based on the fundamental idea of describing the temporal development of a person's characteristic by means of the temporal progression of a reference characteristic of a reference position. Since a person has a multitude of characteristics, which interact with one another, the accuracy of the method according to the invention can be increased by inputting multiple characteristics or by processing additional characteristics and reference characteristics. The aforementioned database containing the reference characteristics preferably takes into account the interaction of the characteristics through the reference characteristics.

[0028] The reference property value comprises a reference property and a numerical value, which numerical value describes the person's fulfillment of the property attribute. Similarly, the property value comprises the property attribute and a numerical value, which numerical value describes the person's fulfillment of the property attribute. For example, in the case of a property attribute "exactly," the numerical value describes how exactly the person fulfills the attribute. The numerical value of the property value can be reduced by the numerical similarity value of the reference property to the property.

[0029] Claim 2 comprises a second solution.

[0030] The second solution is characterized by the fact that at least one training of the person entered via a training attribute is compared at at least one training point in time with a plurality of reference trainings defined via reference training attributes, which reference trainings from a reference training point in time describe a temporal course of a numerical reference training value over a reference training period, wherein at least one reference training is selected, which reference training is most similar to the at least one training, and the reference training point in time is set equal to the training point in time, so that for a future point in time t there is a temporal course of the training value defined by the temporal course of the reference training, which temporal course of the training value at time t describes the person at time t, which training value which activity value at time t is compared with a target training value, which target training value is stored in a database for the workplace and/or is defined by a user, wherein if a training value is greater than or equal to the target training value, a positive suitability of the person for the workplace is determined, or if a training value is less than the target training value, a negative suitability of the person for the workplace is determined.

[0031] The reference person is identified by determining which reference person has the most similar reference education to the person's education. This can be done by recognizing and comparing mathematical patterns according to established principles. A mathematical pattern representing the person's education is compared with a multitude of reference educations of reference persons, and a similarity value is determined. The reference person with the reference education exhibiting the highest similarity value to the person's education is considered the reference person most similar to the person.

[0032] It is possible that the person may have several reference persons with regard to the characteristic under consideration or education or training. The activity exhibits the same similarity, in particular the same degree of similarity. To also take this case into account, at least one reference characteristic, or at least one reference training or reference activity, or at least one reference person is selected.

[0033] The first solution relates to the consideration of a property and a reference property. The second solution relates to the consideration of a training and a reference training.

[0034] A person's training is defined by a training attribute and a training point in time. The training point in time defines, for example, the point in time at which the training is completed.

[0035] Reference training of a reference person is defined by a reference training attribute and the reference time. The reference training comprises a time course of a reference training value, which describes the importance or influence of the training at a time t. For example, the reference training value can describe whether and/or to what extent the reference person can implement the reference training at a subsequent time. The reference training value comprises the reference training attribute and a numerical value, which numerical value describes the importance of the training, in particular of the training attribute, at a time t.

[0036] It is again assumed that the person and a selected reference person behave similarly. In particular, it is assumed that the importance of the person's training and the importance of the reference training of the reference person have a similar temporal progression. According to this assumption, the reference training time and the training time, as well as the reference training value and a training value, are equated. A training value can be determined for a time t, which training value is compared with a target training value. This is achieved by the invention. The simulation process generates a statement as to whether the person is suitable for the profession and/or the workplace with regard to their previous education.

[0037] The training value mentioned above is a variable quantity over time. The method according to the invention can thus take into account that a person forgets the content of a training course, and therefore the training has a lesser impact on the person's suitability. It can also take into account that the content of a training course is only understood some time after the training period. Such influences are stored in the database via the reference training value.

[0038] Claim 3 comprises a third solution.

[0039] The third solution is characterized in that at least one activity entered by the person via an activity attribute is compared at at least one activity time with a plurality of reference activities defined via reference activity attributes, which reference activities from an activity time describe a temporal progression of a numerical reference activity value over a reference activity time period, wherein at least one reference activity is selected which reference activity is most similar to the at least one activity, and the reference activity time is set equal to the activity time, so that for a future time t there is a temporal progression of the activity value defined by the temporal progression of the reference activity, which temporal progression of the activity value at time t describes the person at time t, which activity value at time t is compared with a target activity value, which target characteristic value or target training value is stored in a database for the workplace and/or is defined by a user, wherein if an activity value is greater than or equal to the target activity value, a positive suitability of the person for the workplace is determined or If the activity value is lower than the target activity value, a negative suitability of the person for the workplace is determined.

[0040] The reference person is identified by determining which reference person has a reference activity most similar to the activity of the person in question. This can be done by recognizing and comparing mathematical patterns according to established principles. A mathematical pattern relating to the activity of the person in question is compared with a multitude of reference activities of reference persons, and a similarity value is determined. The reference person with the reference activity exhibiting the highest similarity value to the activity of the person in question is considered the reference person most similar to the person in question.

[0041] The first solution relates to the consideration of a property and a reference property. The second solution relates to the consideration of a training and a reference training. The third solution relates to the consideration of an activity and a reference activity.

[0042] A person's activity is defined by an activity attribute and an activity time. The activity time defines, for example, the time of completion of the activity.

[0043] A reference activity of a reference person is defined by a reference activity attribute and the reference time. The reference activity comprises a temporal progression of a reference activity value, which describes the importance or influence of the activity at a time t. For example, the reference activity value can describe whether and/or to what extent the reference person can implement the reference activity for the profession or at the workplace at a subsequent time. The reference activity value comprises the reference activity attribute and a numerical value, which numerical value describes the importance of the reference activity, in particular of the reference activity attribute, at a time t. [0044] It is again assumed that the person and a selected reference person behave similarly. In particular, it is assumed that the importance of the person's activity and the importance of the reference activity of the reference person have a similar temporal progression. According to this assumption, the reference activity time and the activity time, as well as the reference activity value and an activity value, are equated. A reference activity value can be determined for a time t, which reference activity value is compared with a target training value. The simulation method according to the invention generates a statement as to whether the person is suitable for the profession and/or the workplace with regard to their previous activity.

[0045] With the solutions of the method according to the invention shown above, at least one positive suitability or negative suitability is determined in each case.

[0046] In all three proposed solutions, attributes about the person are compared with reference attributes at specific points in time, assuming that the attributes about the person and the reference attributes are similar. The reference attributes available for a given time period are compared with the workplace attributes, so that the data about the person are indirectly compared with the data about the workplace.

[0047] The method according to the invention can include determining a number of positive suitability or the number of negative suitability.

[0048] The number of positive suitability traits and/or the number of negative suitability traits can be compared with a target number. If the number of positive suitability traits exceeds the target number, it is determined that the person is suitable for the profession and/or the workplace.

[0049] The method according to the invention can be characterized by the fact that a characteristic attribute, an education attribute, or an activity attribute in a database is linked to an aptitude factor, by which aptitude factor a positive aptitude or a negative aptitude is reduced.

[0050] In this way, the relevance of the individual qualifications can be controlled.

[0051] The method according to the invention can be characterized in that at least two attributes from a property attribute, a training attribute and an activity attribute are linked in a database with a suitability factor by which suitability factor a positive suitability or a negative suitability is reduced.

[0052] A relationship between the aforementioned attributes can be taken into account, and the determined suitability can be increased or decreased. For example, the fact that a person has completed vocational training and practiced a profession can be taken into account.

[0053] The method according to the invention can be characterized in that an input property pattern is described and compared with a plurality of reference property patterns with reference property time values at several property time points, wherein at least one reference property pattern most similar to the property pattern is selected, the property time points being set equal to the reference property time points, so that for a future time point t a temporal progression of a property pattern defined by the reference property pattern is available, or an input development pattern is described and compared with a plurality of reference development patterns with reference property time points at several development time points. where at least one is most similar to the training pattern

A reference training pattern is selected, whereby the training times are set equal to the reference training times, so that for a future time t a future temporal course of a training pattern defined by the reference training pattern exists, or an entered activity pattern describes several activities for several

The activity time is compared with a multitude of reference activity patterns at reference activity time points, whereby at least one reference activity pattern most similar to the activity pattern is selected, whereby the activity time points are equated with the reference activity time points, so that for a future time point there is a future temporal course of an activity pattern defined by the reference activity pattern.

[0054] The method according to the invention can be characterized in that an attribute consisting of a property attribute, an activity attribute, and an education attribute is compared with another attribute consisting of a property attribute, an activity attribute, and an education attribute, wherein a contradiction of an attribute consisting of property attributes is stored in the database.

Activity attributes and training attributes and other attributes are defined from property attributes, activity attributes and training attributes, whereby in the event of a contradiction, no property value and/or activity value and/or training value is compared with a target property value or target activity value or target training value.

[0055] This process step aims to detect inconsistencies in the input about the person by comparing it with a database in which inconsistencies are stored and to stop the process. [0056] The method according to the invention can also include having the comparison of the determined suitability verified by another person.

[0057] The method according to the invention can include the fact that, if a positive suitability of a person is confirmed at time t by another person, the target property value or the target training value or the target activity value remains unchanged.

[0058] Alternatively, the method according to the invention can include changing the target property value, the target training value, or the target activity value if no confirmation of a positive suitability of a person is made by another person at time t.

[0059] The method according to the invention can be characterized in that if an influence of a characteristic, activity or training of a person is confirmed by another person at time t, the suitability factor remains unchanged, or if no influence of a characteristic, activity or training of a person is confirmed by another person at time t, the suitability factor is changed.

[0060] Fig. 1 illustrates a possible embodiment of the method according to the invention,

[0061] Fig. 2 illustrates the comparison of the person's attributes with the reference attributes.

[0062] The embodiments shown in the figures merely illustrate possible embodiments, and it should be noted at this point that the invention is not limited to these specifically illustrated embodiments, but also to combinations of the individual embodiments with each other and a Combinations of an embodiment with the general description above are possible. These further possible combinations do not need to be explicitly mentioned, since these further possible combinations are within the knowledge of a person skilled in this technical field, based on the teaching of the present invention.

[0063] The scope of protection is defined by the claims. However, the description and the drawings are to be used to interpret the claims. Individual features or combinations of features from the different embodiments shown and described can in themselves represent independent inventive solutions. The problem underlying the independent inventive solutions can be found in the description.

[0064] In the figures, the following elements are identified by the preceding reference numerals:

[0065]

14 Time period [0066] Figure 1 illustrates a possible embodiment of the inventive method for matching the characteristics of a person with the requirements of a profession or workplace for a person.

[0067] At least one characteristic of the person is entered. For the sake of simplicity, the discussion of the method according to the invention is limited to the input of a single characteristic. The method discussed with reference to Figure 1 and also Figure 2 is also applicable to education and/or work.

[0068] As mentioned above, inputting and considering several properties is effective.

[0069] Figure 1 includes, for example, the input 1 of the property with the property attribute “exactly” at a property time DD1 .MM1 .YYYY1 .

[0070] Figure 1 further includes the input 2 of the property with the property attribute “on time” at the property times DD2.MM2.YYYY2 and DD3.MM3.YYYY3.

[0071] The mentioned property attributes are given as examples.

[0072] The property time points mentioned and the number thereof are examples. The property time points can be points in time at which a property was confirmed or determined.

[0073] By entering 1 , 2 the properties, a reference to reality, in particular to the person, is established.

[0074] The properties can be compared separately or together with a multitude of reference properties 3, 4. Essentially, a database is searched for a reference person who possesses the one property and/or the properties. The database can include information about which Property attributes can be compared separately or together with reference properties 3 and 4. In the example discussed here, the property attributes "exact" and "punctual" are related to each other, which is why the two properties are compared with reference properties 3 and 4.

[0075] The database includes reference properties 3, 4 with the time course of a reference property value 7, 8 from a reference property time point. The reference property 3, 4 includes in particular the specification of a

Reference property attribute and a numeric reference property value 7, 8 over the time course of fulfilling the reference property attribute.

[0076] In the example shown in Figure 1, the inputs 1, 2 are compared with a plurality of reference characteristics 3, 4 using methods according to established teaching. At least the inputs 1, 2 are the input values for the comparison between the person and the reference person. The comparison can also be based on further characteristics such as age, gender, etc., of the person or the reference person. By including further inputs, the accuracy of the comparison between the person and the reference person can be increased. The embodiment of the method according to the invention discussed with reference to Figure 1 is based on

[0077] By comparing the person with the reference person mentioned above, the reference properties 3, 4 shown in Figure 1 are selected from the multitude of reference properties. The diagrams of the reference properties 3, 4 shown in Figure 1 show the degree of fulfillment of the respective reference property attribute (plotted on the y-axis) over time (x-axis). The reference properties 3, 4, represented as a diagram, comprise a description of the temporal progression of a numerical reference property value 7, 8, which reference property value 7, 8 represents the degree of fulfillment of the

The reference attribute describes the reference person. For example, the diagram above, concerning reference attribute 4 "exactly," illustrates how and to what extent the reference attribute "exactly" describes the reference person. achieved over time. The lower diagram for reference attribute 4 "punctual" shows how the achievement of the reference attribute "punctuality" develops over time by the reference person.

[0078] The reference property time is assigned to the property time, the reference property value 7, 8 to a property value, and the

The reference attribute is equated with the property attribute, so that the diagrams describe the temporal development of the respective property value from the property time point DD1.MM1.YYYY1, DD2.MM2.YYYY2, DD3.MM3.YYYY3. Thus, assuming that the reference person and the person behave similarly, reference attribute 3, 4 of the reference person and the property of the person are equated.

[0079] The characteristic of the person is thus described with sufficient accuracy by the characteristic attribute corresponding to the reference characteristic attribute and a numerical characteristic value corresponding to the numerical reference characteristic value 7, 8, which numerical characteristic value describes the degree to which the characteristic attribute is fulfilled over time. The characteristic value 7, 8 can be read from the diagram, which character value 7, 8 describes how “accurate” and how “punctual” the person is presumably to be at a time t.

[0080] The property values 7, 8 at a time t are compared with target property values 5, 6, which target property values 5, 6 are stored in the database for a workplace or a profession. The method according to the invention distinguishes between the two cases.

[0081] If the property value is greater than or equal to the target property value, the method according to the invention determines a positive suitability of the person with regard to this property for the profession or workplace. [0082] If a characteristic value is less than the target characteristic value, a negative suitability of the person with regard to this characteristic for the profession or workplace is determined.

[0083] In the method shown in Figure 1, a positive suitability is determined for both characteristics of the person.

[0084] Positive or negative suitability can be determined for a general point in time. The method according to the invention thus also allows the determination of when a person has positive or negative suitability. Within the framework of a simulation of the temporal development of a person's characteristic, the method can be supplemented with further inputs and thus determine under which conditions defined by the inputs and the further inputs positive or negative suitability is determined.

[0085] With reference to Figure 1, an application of the method according to the invention to a comparison of the person and a reference person with regard to at least one property or at least one reference property 3, 4 is discussed. A positive suitability or a negative suitability of the person with regard to the input property is determined.

[0086] Instead of a property, a person's level of training can also be entered and compared with a reference level of training. A time-dependent reference training value can be assigned to the person. The reference training value is equated with a similarly time-dependent training value of the person, so that a training value of the person can be determined at a time t. The person's suitability is determined by comparing the training value with a target training value.

[0087] Furthermore, instead of a property, an activity of the person can also be entered and compared with a reference activity. A time-dependent reference activity value can be assigned to the person. The reference job value is equated with a time-dependent job value of the individual, so that a job value of the individual can be determined at a point in time t. The individual's suitability is determined by comparing this job value with a target job value.

[0088] The user can perform these procedures analogously to the procedure described above for determining suitability with regard to a characteristic (now training or activity). The user can also refer to the general description for carrying out these procedures.

[0089] Figure 2 further illustrates the comparison of attributes such as property attributes 10, 11, 12 and/or educational attributes and/or activity attributes of the person with reference attributes such as reference property attributes 7, 13, or educational attributes or activity attributes. The example shown in Figure 2, like the example shown in Figure 1, focuses on the comparison of property attributes and reference property attributes, but is applicable to any attribute mentioned in the disclosure. For this reason, the description of Figure 2 refers generally to attributes and reference attributes.

[0090] Attributes 10, 11, 12 describing the person at a time t are entered. Figure 2 shows the input of three attributes. Any number of attributes can be entered, and the accuracy of the method can be increased by entering multiple attributes 10, 11, 12.

[0091] The attributes 10, 11, 12 available at each point in time are compared with a plurality of reference attributes 7, 13. For the sake of clarity, only two reference attribute curves are shown in Figure 2, describing the course of the reference attributes 7, 13 over the time interval 14. The reference attributes 7, 13 describe reference values over the time interval 14. In Figure 2, the reference attributes 7, 13 are shown as graphs by way of example. [0092] Using prior art mathematical methods, the reference curve 7 is selected from the set of reference curves 7, 13 which is most similar to the attributes 10, 11, 12. Figure 2 shows a possible special case in which the reference curve 7 passes through the points of the attributes 10, 11, 12 or (also conceivably) a region around the points. It is also conceivable that a spline extending through the points of the attributes 10, 11, 12 is determined and this spline is compared with the reference curves 7, 13.

[0093] It is therefore assumed that the selected reference attributes 7 describe the person's characteristics with sufficient accuracy over the time period 14 due to their similarity to the input attributes 10, 11, 12. Advantageously, the reference attributes 7 are available over the entire time period 14 and not—like attributes 10, 11, 12—only at specific points in time. Thus, the person described by the reference attributes 7 can be compared more accurately with the target attribute 5 over the entire time period 14. ```

A computer-implemented method for comparing the characteristics of a person with the requirements of a profession or workplace, or by another person of the profession or at the workplace to the person, characterized in that at least one characteristic of the person entered via a characteristic attribute is compared at at least one characteristic time point with a plurality of reference characteristics defined via reference characteristic attributes, which reference characteristics describe a temporal course of a numerical reference characteristic value (7, 8) over a reference characteristic time span from a reference characteristic time point, wherein at least reference characteristic (3, 4) is selected, which reference characteristic (3, 4) is most similar to the at least one characteristic, and the reference characteristic time point is set equal to the characteristic time point, such that for a time point t there is a temporal course of the characteristic value defined by the temporal course of the reference characteristic (3, 4), which temporal course of the characteristic value at time point t describes the person at time point t, which characteristic value at time point t is compared with a target characteristic value, which The target property value is stored in a database for the workplace and/or defined by a user, whereby a property value greater than or equal to the target property value indicates a positive suitability of the person for the workplace, or a property value less than the target property value indicates a negative suitability of the person for the profession or workplace. 2. A computer-implemented method for matching a person's education with the requirements of an occupation or workplace, or by another person in the occupation or workplace to the person, wherein at least one education of the person entered via an education attribute is compared at at least one education point in time with a plurality of reference educations defined via reference education attributes, which reference educations from a reference education point in time describe a temporal progression of a numerical reference education value over a reference education period, wherein at least one reference education is selected which reference education is most similar to the at least one education, and the reference education point in time is set equal to the education point in time, such that for a future time t there is a temporal progression of the education value defined by the temporal progression of the reference education, which temporal progression of the education value at time t describes the person at time t, which education value which activity value at time t is compared with a target education value, which target education value is stored in a database for the workplace and/or defined by a user, wherein if an education value is greater than or equal to the target education value, a positive suitability of the person for The job is determined, or if the training value is lower than the target training value, a negative suitability of the person for the job is determined. 3. Computer-implemented method for matching a person's activity with the requirements of a profession or workplace, or by another person of the profession or at the workplace to the person, wherein At least one activity entered by the person via an activity attribute is compared at at least one activity point in time with a multitude of reference activities defined via reference activity attributes, which reference activities from an activity point in time describe a temporal progression of a numerical reference activity value over a reference activity period, wherein at least one reference activity is selected which reference activity is most similar to the at least one activity, and the reference activity point in time is set equal to the activity point in time, so that for a future point in time t there is a temporal progression of the activity value defined by the temporal progression of the reference activity, which temporal progression of the activity value at time t describes the person at time t, which activity value at time t is compared with a target activity value, which target characteristic value or target training value is stored in a database for the workplace and/or is defined by a user, wherein if an activity value is greater than or equal to the target activity value, a positive suitability of the person for the workplace is determined, or if an activity value is less than the target activity value, a negative suitability of the person for the workplace is determined. 4. Method according to one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that a number of positive suitability or the number of negative suitability is determined. 5. Method according to one of claims 1 to 4, characterized in that a property attribute and/or a training attribute and/or an activity attribute is linked in a database with a suitability factor, by which suitability factor a positive suitability or a negative suitability is reduced. 6. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 5, characterized in that an input property pattern is described and compared with a plurality of reference property patterns with reference property time values at several property time points, wherein at least one reference property pattern most similar to the property pattern is selected, the property time points being set equal to the reference property time points, so that for a future time point, a temporal progression of a property pattern defined by the reference property pattern exists, or an input training pattern is described and compared with a plurality of reference training patterns with reference property time points at several training time points, wherein at least one reference training pattern most similar to the training pattern is selected, the training time points being set equal to the reference training time points, so that for a future time point, a future temporal progression of a training pattern defined by the reference training pattern exists, or an input activity pattern is described and compared with a plurality of reference activity patterns at reference activity time points, wherein at least one reference training pattern most similar to the activity pattern is selected, the training time points being set equal to the reference training time points, so that for a future time point, a future temporal progression of a training pattern defined by the reference training pattern exists, or an input activity pattern is described and compared with a plurality of reference activity patterns at several activity time points, wherein at least one reference activity pattern is selected that is similar to the activity pattern at the The most similar reference activity pattern is selected where the activity times are equated with the reference activity times, so that for a future time t there is a future temporal progression of an activity pattern defined by the reference activity pattern. 7. Method according to one of claims 1 to 5, characterized in that an attribute consisting of a property attribute, an activity attribute and an education attribute is compared with another attribute consisting of a property attribute, an activity attribute and an education attribute, wherein a contradiction between an attribute consisting of property attributes, activity attributes and education attributes and another attribute consisting of property attributes, activity attributes and education attributes is defined in the database, wherein, in the event of a contradiction, no property value and/or activity value and/or education value is compared with a target property value or target activity value or target education value. 8. Method according to one of claims 1 to 7, characterized in that if a positive suitability of a person is confirmed by another person at time t, the target property value or the target training value or the target activity value remains unchanged, or if a positive suitability of a person is not confirmed by another person at time t, the target property value or the target training value or the target activity value is changed. 9. Method according to one of claims 1 to 8, characterized in that, if an influence of a characteristic, activity, or training of a person is confirmed at time t by another person, the suitability factor remains unchanged or The suitability factor is changed if no further person confirms the influence of a characteristic, activity, or training of a person at time t.
