[0002] With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, digital human technology has gradually been applied to scenarios such as smart reception and online customer service. This type of technology provides services to users through multimodal interaction of voice, text and images. However, existing technologies still have some shortcomings in data fusion, real-time response and situational adaptability, which affects user experience and application effects.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN117828065B discloses a digital human customer service method, system, device and storage medium, which realizes intelligent customer service function by processing user input (voice, text, image) and generating personalized answers. Although the patent provides customized service capabilities, it only processes single-modal data in terms of data fusion and lacks dynamic optimization strategies for complex multi-modal interaction scenarios. In addition, the technology relies on cloud computing, which has response delays and user privacy and security risks.

[0004] Chinese invention patent CN118485447B discloses a customer service processing method for a heating digital human, which improves user satisfaction with problem solving through question-answer matching accuracy and emotion recognition. Although the patent effectively combines emotion recognition and problem handling processes, its functions are limited to specific heating scenarios and it is difficult to meet the needs of other complex interactive scenarios. In addition, emotion recognition mainly relies on voice signals and lacks comprehensive analysis of multimodal data, which may lead to inaccurate emotion judgments.

[0005] The above design realizes the basic functions of digital human customer service through single-mode or simple multi-modal analysis, but it still has the following limitations: Insufficient data fusion capability: The existing technology lacks comprehensive fusion and dynamic weight adjustment of multi-modal data (voice, image, action, body temperature, etc.), and it is difficult to cope with complex environments and the diversity of user behaviors. Weak real-time and privacy protection: Reliance on cloud computing to process data leads to response delays, and there is a risk of user privacy leakage during data transmission. Insufficient adaptability and robustness: In environments with low light, high noise or dynamic occlusion, the system performance may drop significantly, affecting the interaction effect. Application scenario limitations: Existing technologies mostly focus on a single scenario (such as heating customer service), lack versatility and scalability, and are difficult to meet diverse smart reception needs. Summary of the invention

[0080] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0081] 1. The system integrates high-resolution cameras, microphone arrays, and infrared sensors, which can simultaneously collect information such as the user's voice, image, and body temperature trajectory, realize comprehensive perception of multimodal data, and locally process data through the edge computing module to reduce the latency and resource consumption of cloud computing, ensuring the real-time and reliability of interaction. The Test Time Training (TTT) mechanism can adjust the parameters of the data fusion model according to the real-time environment, improve the system's adaptability in complex scenarios (such as low light and high noise), use the Transformer architecture to integrate multimodal data, and use the multi-head attention mechanism to weigh the importance of voice, vision, and thermal imaging data to ensure efficient and accurate interaction decisions.

[0082] 2. The system determines the interaction intention based on the user's facial expressions, voice commands and motion trajectories, dynamically adjusts the trigger judgment threshold, reduces false triggering or missed triggering, and ensures natural and smooth interaction. After activation, the system confirms the user's intention through voice or visual signals to further improve the accuracy of the interaction. Through the multimodal fusion of vision, voice, thermal imaging and motion trajectories, the system can accurately judge the user's emotional state (such as tension, happiness, confusion). The system predicts the user's potential needs based on historical records and real-time data, and actively triggers personalized services, such as recommended information or voice inquiries, to avoid users from explicitly expressing their needs.

[0083] 3. In complex environments with weak light, background noise or motion occlusion, the system dynamically adjusts the fusion weight of multimodal data to ensure the accuracy of emotion recognition and behavior prediction. The combination of edge computing and multimodal fusion enables the system to operate stably under network fluctuations. By using multimodal perception data (such as thermal imaging to replace visual information in low light conditions and infrared sensing to supplement dynamic motion perception), the system can avoid recognition errors caused by the failure of single-modal data.

[0084] 4. The behavior prediction module combines real-time data and historical behavior patterns to provide users with proactive services, such as providing help suggestions when users are confused. The system supports personalized recommendations based on user historical preferences to improve user satisfaction and service quality. The system supports multimodal interaction methods such as voice, vision, and action, and dynamically adjusts the interaction strategy based on emotional state to provide service feedback that meets the user's current needs.

[0085] 5. The edge computing module completes the processing and fusion of voice, image and infrared data locally, reducing dependence on the cloud and effectively protecting user privacy. The data processing process does not need to transmit user sensitive information to external servers, thereby reducing the risk of data leakage. The system dynamically adjusts the judgment threshold for triggering activation to avoid non-target users triggering the system, further improving user privacy and security.

[0086] 6. After each interaction, the system updates the behavior prediction model by recording user behavior data, so that the system can continuously optimize the interaction strategy. The combination of TTT mechanism and Transformer architecture makes the system scalable and adaptable to different application scenarios. It can integrate other sensing devices (such as heart rate detectors or augmented reality cameras) according to actual needs to further enhance the richness of interaction and application scope.

[0105] Optimize the adaptability of data fusion models to environmental changes (e.g., poor lighting, background noise).

[0106] Transformer architecture: divides multimodal data into token sequences of multiple time periods, and applies a multi-head attention mechanism to process data of different modalities:

[0107] The first attention head: analyzes the semantics and voiceprint of speech; the second attention head: analyzes facial expressions and movement trajectories; the third attention head: analyzes the temperature distribution of thermal imaging data.

[0108] Position encoding is used to add time dimension information to Token, and multimodal data is integrated through the self-attention network to generate a comprehensive decision vector.

[0109] Trigger activation module:

[0110] Based on the multimodal trigger mechanism, it determines whether the user has the intention to interact, dynamically adjusts the trigger judgment threshold (such as the facial direction detected by the camera, gesture movements within the infrared sensing range, etc.) to reduce false triggers. After activation, it confirms whether the user needs to start the service through voice or visual signals.

[0111] Emotion recognition module: Comprehensively analyzes the user's facial expression features, voice features, movement trajectory and thermal imaging data to determine the emotional state (such as tension, relaxation), and uses the analysis results to assist trigger judgment and personalized interaction.

[0112] Interactive response module: Generates speech synthesis, visual display or mechanical action response based on the comprehensive decision vector.

[0113] Behavior prediction module: Utilizes historical interaction data and real-time input to analyze user behavior patterns, predict potential needs, and proactively trigger personalized interaction actions (such as recommending information or initiating inquiries).

[0114] Working process

[0115] Data collection stage: The high-resolution camera captures the user's facial image and environmental information in real time; the microphone array collects voice signals and separates voice content from background noise; the infrared sensor monitors the user's distance, gestures and body temperature changes, and generates corresponding signals.

[0116] Data processing stage: The edge computing module performs local processing on the collected data and extracts key features, including: semantic features and voiceprint features of speech signals; facial expressions, movement trajectories and environmental background; body temperature and gesture trajectories of infrared signals.

The system analyzes user behavior patterns (such as standing for a long time) through the behavior prediction module and actively provides recommended content or initiates inquiries.

[0120] By utilizing the TTT mechanism and Transformer architecture, the feature extraction and fusion strategies of multimodal data can be dynamically adjusted to adapt to complex and changing environments.

[0121] Local data processing is achieved through edge computing modules, reducing dependence on cloud computing and improving real-time performance and privacy security.

Users can start interactions through voice, gestures, or facial expressions. The system provides personalized services based on emotions and behaviors. The localized processing of edge computing reduces dependence on the cloud, ensuring that the system can still run stably when the network fluctuates. The dynamic trigger threshold adjustment rules, combined with multimodal fusion results, effectively reduce the false trigger and missed trigger rates.

[0184] S6 behavior prediction:

[0185] Behavior pattern establishment: Based on the fused token sequence and combined with the user's historical interaction records (such as voice commands and gesture trajectories), a behavior pattern database is constructed using the long-term memory network (LSTM).

[0186] Potential demand prediction: When a user's repetitive actions are detected (such as waving multiple times or standing for a long time), the contextual information of the action is analyzed, combined with historical behavior patterns, and the user's possible needs (such as needing help or paying attention to an object) are predicted with high confidence.

[0187] Personalized interactive behavior triggering: The system actively triggers interactive behaviors based on prediction results, including:

[0188] 1) Voice feedback: Generate a voice to ask if you need help, 2) Information recommendation: Display relevant information or recommended content based on the user's historical preferences, 3) Action feedback: Physically interact with the user through light prompts, direction guidance or screen display.

[0189] Working process

[0190] Emotion recognition stage: After the system is started, it captures the user's facial expressions, voice signals, body temperature data and movement trajectories in real time. The edge computing module localizes the above data and extracts emotional features. The data is processed through the Transformer architecture to generate emotional judgment results, such as whether the user is nervous, happy or confused.

[0191] Behavior prediction stage: The system uses real-time data and historical records to analyze user behavior patterns. When it detects that the user may have needs (such as standing for a long time), the behavior prediction module generates a high-confidence potential demand prediction.

[0192] Personalized interactive feedback: Based on the emotion and behavior prediction results, the system selects the optimal interaction method:

[0193] If the user shows confusion, the system generates a gentle voice inquiry. If it detects that the user is paying attention to an object, the system displays relevant information or recommended content.

[0194] Result feedback and model update: The system records interaction data, updates the behavior pattern database, and provides optimization support for subsequent predictions.

[0195] Vision, voice, thermal imaging and motion data are used to judge emotions, avoiding the shortcomings of single-modal data due to environmental limitations. The dynamic weight adjustment mechanism further improves the robustness and accuracy of emotion recognition.

[0196] The system comprehensively analyzes user behavior through historical records and real-time data, predicts potential needs, and proactively triggers personalized services, thereby improving the intelligence level of user experience.

[0197] The results of emotion recognition are closely integrated with behavior predictions, enabling the system to understand user intentions more accurately and provide interactive feedback that fits the context. Users do not need to explicitly express their needs, and the system can proactively provide services, enhancing the naturalness and fluency of the interaction.

[0198] In low light, noisy or complex motion backgrounds, the system can dynamically adjust weights based on multimodal data to ensure the stability of emotional judgment and behavior prediction.

[0199] After each interaction, the system updates the behavior pattern database, allowing the prediction model to be continuously optimized and gradually improve service quality.

[0200] This embodiment demonstrates the intelligence and efficiency of the digital employee reception system in emotion perception and behavior prediction by refining S5 emotion recognition and S6 behavior prediction and combining them with the collection and analysis of multimodal data, laying a solid foundation for providing personalized services.

[0201] In view of current practical needs, the above-mentioned implementation mode adopted in this application is not limited to the scope of protection. Various changes made within the knowledge scope of technical personnel in this field without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
