[0016] [First embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.
[0017] 1, a data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).
[0019] The smart device 14 includes a computer 36, a reception device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication I / F 44.

[0023] FIG. 2 shows an example of main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.
[0024] As shown in Fig. 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific process program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific process program 56 is an example of a "program" according to the technology of the present disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific process program 56 from the storage 32, and executes the read specific process program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific process is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific process program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0025] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the emotion of the user using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0027] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains a processing result (prediction result, etc.) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (e.g., a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user. Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) A health management system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system in which a user undergoes a human genetic test and uploads the results to a generating AI. This system allows the user to grasp the situation regarding at least a portion of the approximately 21,000 gene sets, and further inputs a simple questionnaire regarding the user's current health condition and lifestyle habits, thereby determining the risk of developing a disease according to the user's life stage, and delivering countermeasures at an appropriate time. For example, a user undergoes a genetic test and uploads the results to the system. Next, questionnaire information regarding the user's health condition and lifestyle habits is collected. Based on this information, the system uses a generating AI to determine the risk of developing a disease in the user's life stage. For example, if it is determined that the user is at high risk of a specific disease based on the genetic information, the system notifies the user of countermeasures for that disease. The notification is performed at a timing according to the user's life stage. For example, if the user is at high risk of lifestyle-related diseases in their youth, the system notifies the user of countermeasures for that disease, and if the user is at high risk of cancer in their middle age, the system notifies the user of countermeasures for that disease. This allows the user to take appropriate countermeasures according to their health condition. This system enables the user to manage their health individually based on their genetic information and health condition, which is expected to prevent and detect diseases early. This allows the health management system to provide individualized health management based on the user's genetic information and health condition.
[0029] The health management system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, a collection unit, a determination unit, and a notification unit. The reception unit receives genetic information indicating a human genetic test of a user. The genetic information of the user includes, for example, a specific gene mutation and a gene expression level, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit provides, for example, an interface for the user to upload the genetic information. The reception unit also safely stores the genetic information and makes it accessible as needed. The collection unit collects questionnaire information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. The health condition includes, for example, blood pressure, blood sugar level, weight, etc., but is not limited to such examples. The lifestyle habits include, for example, diet, exercise, sleep, etc., but is not limited to such examples. The collection unit collects information, for example, through an online questionnaire or a telephone interview. The determination unit uses a generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease in the user's life stage based on the genetic information received by the reception unit and the questionnaire information collected by the collection unit. The life stages include, for example, childhood, adolescence, middle age, old age, etc., but are not limited to such examples. The determination unit, for example, uses a generation AI to analyze genetic information and questionnaire information to evaluate the risk of a specific disease. The notification unit notifies the user of the disease onset risk and disease countermeasures determined by the determination unit at a timing according to the user's life stage. Notification timing includes, for example, periodic notification and notification at the time of a specific event, but is not limited to such examples. The notification unit provides information to the user, for example, through email or app notification. As a result, the health management system according to the embodiment can provide individual health management based on the user's genetic information and health condition.
[0030] The reception unit receives the genetic information of the user. The genetic information of the user includes, for example, specific gene mutations and gene expression levels, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit provides, for example, an interface for the user to upload the genetic information. Specifically, the user can upload a file of genetic information through a dedicated web portal or mobile app. This interface is designed to be easy for the user to operate, and has functions such as automatic recognition of file formats and display of upload progress. In addition, the reception unit securely stores the genetic information and makes it accessible as needed. This includes data encryption and access control, and strict security measures are taken to protect the privacy of the user. In addition, the reception unit also has a function of automatically classifying the genetic information uploaded by the user and extracting information required for analysis. For example, data related to specific gene mutations and expression levels can be extracted and used for a subsequent analysis process. In this way, the reception unit can efficiently and safely manage the genetic information of the user, and improve the reliability and convenience of the entire system.
[0031] The collection unit collects questionnaire information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. Examples of health conditions include, but are not limited to, blood pressure, blood sugar level, and weight. Specifically, the user periodically answers online questionnaires to provide data on his or her health condition. The questionnaires are designed to be easily answered by the user, and include questions in various formats, such as multiple choice format and numerical input format. Examples of lifestyle habits include, but are not limited to, diet, exercise, and sleep. The collection unit collects information, for example, through online questionnaires and telephone interviews. Online questionnaires are highly convenient because the user can answer at his or her own pace. In addition, telephone interviews are effective for obtaining detailed answers to specific questions, and deeper information can be collected by the person in charge of the collection unit directly interacting with the user. Furthermore, the collection unit has a function of automatically organizing data provided by the user and converting it into a format required for analysis. For example, the collected data is converted into a unified format and stored in a database to make the subsequent analysis process more efficient. This allows the collection unit to efficiently collect a wide range of data on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits, and improve the data quality of the entire system.
[0032] The determination unit uses the generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease in the user's life stage based on the genetic information accepted by the acceptance unit and the questionnaire information collected by the collection unit. The life stages include, but are not limited to, childhood, adolescence, middle age, and old age. In the determination unit, for example, the generation AI analyzes the genetic information and the questionnaire information to evaluate the risk of a specific disease. Specifically, the generation AI extracts specific gene mutations and expression levels from the genetic information and combines them with the questionnaire information for analysis. The generation AI predicts the risk of developing a disease in each life stage using a model based on past data and medical knowledge. For example, if a user with a specific genetic mutation is at risk of high blood pressure, the generation AI evaluates the risk and provides the user with appropriate advice. In addition, the generation AI analyzes the user's lifestyle data and identifies factors that affect the health condition. For example, if lack of exercise or an unhealthy diet increases the risk of a specific disease, the generation AI evaluates the risk and provides the user with specific advice for improvement. As a result, the determination unit can perform an individual risk assessment based on the user's genetic information and health condition, and provide the user with useful information for managing his or her own health.
[0033] The notification unit notifies the user of the disease onset risk and disease countermeasures determined by the determination unit at a timing according to the user's life stage. The timing of the notification includes, for example, periodic notification and notification at the time of a specific event, but is not limited to such examples. Specifically, the notification unit provides notification at an optimal timing according to the user's life stage and health condition. For example, the notification can be made in accordance with the results of a periodic health check or a specific event (for example, before or after a birthday or a health check). The notification unit provides information to the user through, for example, email or app notification. Email notification is sent to an email address that the user uses on a daily basis, so that the information is surely delivered. In addition, app notification can provide information to the user in real time using the push notification function of the smartphone. Furthermore, the notification unit can use visual graphs and diagrams to provide the notification content in a format that is easy for the user to understand. For example, the disease risk assessment result is displayed in a graph so that the user can intuitively understand. In addition, specific countermeasures and advice are shown in bullet points, and are devised to be easy for the user to put into practice. In this way, the notification unit can provide useful information to the user at an appropriate timing and support the user to effectively manage his or her health.
[0034] The reception unit can analyze the user's past genetic testing history and select an appropriate reception method. The reception unit can, for example, suggest an optimal reception method based on the reception method used by the user in the past. The reception unit can also select the most efficient reception method from the user's past genetic testing history. Furthermore, the reception unit can analyze the user's past genetic testing history and suggest a reception method that suits the user. This makes it possible to provide an optimal reception method based on the user's past history. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed, for example, using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input past genetic testing history data to the generation AI and cause the generation AI to select the optimal reception method.
[0035] The reception unit can perform filtering based on the user's current health condition and lifestyle habits when receiving the genetic information. The reception unit preferentially receives important genetic information based on the user's current health condition, for example. The reception unit can also filter highly relevant genetic information based on the user's lifestyle habits. Furthermore, the reception unit can also exclude unnecessary genetic information based on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. This makes it possible to preferentially receive important genetic information based on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input health condition and lifestyle habit data to the generation AI and cause the generation AI to perform filtering.

[0056] The process flow of the first embodiment will be briefly described below.
[0057] Step 1: The reception unit receives the user's genetic information. The user's genetic information includes specific gene mutations and gene expression levels. The reception unit provides an interface for the user to upload the genetic information, safely stores the genetic information, and enables it to be accessed as needed. Step 2: The collection unit collects questionnaire information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. The health condition includes blood pressure, blood sugar level, weight, etc., and the lifestyle habits include diet, exercise, sleep, etc. The collection unit collects information through online questionnaires and telephone interviews. Step 3: The determination unit uses the generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease at the user's life stage based on the genetic information accepted by the acceptance unit and the questionnaire information collected by the collection unit. Life stages include childhood, adolescence, middle age, old age, etc. In the determination unit, the generation AI analyzes the genetic information and the questionnaire information to evaluate the risk of a specific disease. Step 4: The notification unit notifies the user of the disease onset risk and disease countermeasures determined by the determination unit at a timing appropriate to the user's life stage. Notification timing includes periodic notifications and notifications at the time of specific events. The notification unit provides information to the user through emails and app notifications.
[0058] (Example 2) A health management system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system in which a user undergoes a human genetic test and uploads the results to a generating AI. This system allows the user to grasp the situation regarding at least a portion of the approximately 21,000 gene sets, and further inputs a simple questionnaire regarding the user's current health condition and lifestyle habits, thereby determining the risk of developing a disease according to the user's life stage, and delivering countermeasures at an appropriate time. For example, a user undergoes a genetic test and uploads the results to the system. Next, questionnaire information regarding the user's health condition and lifestyle habits is collected. Based on this information, the system uses a generating AI to determine the risk of developing a disease in the user's life stage. For example, if it is determined that the user is at high risk of a specific disease based on the genetic information, the system notifies the user of countermeasures for that disease. The notification is performed at a timing according to the user's life stage. For example, if the user is at high risk of lifestyle-related diseases in their youth, the system notifies the user of countermeasures for that disease, and if the user is at high risk of cancer in their middle age, the system notifies the user of countermeasures for that disease. This allows the user to take appropriate countermeasures according to their health condition. This system enables the user to manage their health individually based on their genetic information and health condition, which is expected to prevent and detect diseases early. This allows the health management system to provide individualized health management based on the user's genetic information and health condition.
[0059] The health management system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, a collection unit, a determination unit, and a notification unit. The reception unit receives genetic information indicating a human genetic test of a user. The genetic information of the user includes, for example, a specific gene mutation and a gene expression level, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit provides, for example, an interface for the user to upload the genetic information. The reception unit also safely stores the genetic information and makes it accessible as needed. The collection unit collects questionnaire information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. The health condition includes, for example, blood pressure, blood sugar level, weight, etc., but is not limited to such examples. The lifestyle habits include, for example, diet, exercise, sleep, etc., but is not limited to such examples. The collection unit collects information, for example, through an online questionnaire or a telephone interview. The determination unit uses a generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease in the user's life stage based on the genetic information received by the reception unit and the questionnaire information collected by the collection unit. The life stages include, for example, childhood, adolescence, middle age, old age, etc., but are not limited to such examples. The determination unit, for example, uses a generation AI to analyze genetic information and questionnaire information to evaluate the risk of a specific disease. The notification unit notifies the user of the disease onset risk and disease countermeasures determined by the determination unit at a timing according to the user's life stage. Notification timing includes, for example, periodic notification and notification at the time of a specific event, but is not limited to such examples. The notification unit provides information to the user, for example, through email or app notification. As a result, the health management system according to the embodiment can provide individual health management based on the user's genetic information and health condition.
[0060] The reception unit receives the genetic information of the user. The genetic information of the user includes, for example, specific gene mutations and gene expression levels, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit provides, for example, an interface for the user to upload the genetic information. Specifically, the user can upload a file of genetic information through a dedicated web portal or mobile app. This interface is designed to be easy for the user to operate, and has functions such as automatic recognition of file formats and display of upload progress. In addition, the reception unit securely stores the genetic information and makes it accessible as needed. This includes data encryption and access control, and strict security measures are taken to protect the privacy of the user. In addition, the reception unit also has a function of automatically classifying the genetic information uploaded by the user and extracting information required for analysis. For example, data related to specific gene mutations and expression levels can be extracted and used for a subsequent analysis process. In this way, the reception unit can efficiently and safely manage the genetic information of the user, and improve the reliability and convenience of the entire system.
[0061] The collection unit collects questionnaire information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits. Examples of health conditions include, but are not limited to, blood pressure, blood sugar level, and weight. Specifically, the user periodically answers online questionnaires to provide data on his or her health condition. The questionnaires are designed to be easily answered by the user, and include questions in various formats, such as multiple choice format and numerical input format. Examples of lifestyle habits include, but are not limited to, diet, exercise, and sleep. The collection unit collects information, for example, through online questionnaires and telephone interviews. Online questionnaires are highly convenient because the user can answer at his or her own pace. In addition, telephone interviews are effective for obtaining detailed answers to specific questions, and deeper information can be collected by the person in charge of the collection unit directly interacting with the user. Furthermore, the collection unit has a function of automatically organizing data provided by the user and converting it into a format required for analysis. For example, the collected data is converted into a unified format and stored in a database to make the subsequent analysis process more efficient. This allows the collection unit to efficiently collect a wide range of data on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits, and improve the data quality of the entire system.
[0062] The determination unit uses the generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease in the user's life stage based on the genetic information accepted by the acceptance unit and the questionnaire information collected by the collection unit. The life stages include, but are not limited to, childhood, adolescence, middle age, and old age. In the determination unit, for example, the generation AI analyzes the genetic information and the questionnaire information to evaluate the risk of a specific disease. Specifically, the generation AI extracts specific gene mutations and expression levels from the genetic information and combines them with the questionnaire information for analysis. The generation AI predicts the risk of developing a disease in each life stage using a model based on past data and medical knowledge. For example, if a user with a specific genetic mutation is at risk of high blood pressure, the generation AI evaluates the risk and provides the user with appropriate advice. In addition, the generation AI analyzes the user's lifestyle data and identifies factors that affect the health condition. For example, if lack of exercise or an unhealthy diet increases the risk of a specific disease, the generation AI evaluates the risk and provides the user with specific advice for improvement. As a result, the determination unit can perform an individual risk assessment based on the user's genetic information and health condition, and provide the user with useful information for managing his or her own health.
[0063] The notification unit notifies the user of the disease onset risk and disease countermeasures determined by the determination unit at a timing according to the user's life stage. The timing of the notification includes, for example, periodic notification and notification at the time of a specific event, but is not limited to such examples. Specifically, the notification unit provides notification at an optimal timing according to the user's life stage and health condition. For example, the notification can be made in accordance with the results of a periodic health check or a specific event (for example, before or after a birthday or a health check). The notification unit provides information to the user through, for example, email or app notification. Email notification is sent to an email address that the user uses on a daily basis, so that the information is surely delivered. In addition, app notification can provide information to the user in real time using the push notification function of the smartphone. Furthermore, the notification unit can use visual graphs and diagrams to provide the notification content in a format that is easy for the user to understand. For example, the disease risk assessment result is displayed in a graph so that the user can intuitively understand. In addition, specific countermeasures and advice are shown in bullet points, and are devised to be easy for the user to put into practice. In this way, the notification unit can provide useful information to the user at an appropriate timing and support the user to effectively manage his or her health.
[0064] The reception unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the timing of receiving the genetic information based on the estimated emotion of the user. For example, when the user is stressed, the reception unit receives the genetic information during a time period when the user can relax. Also, when the user is relaxed, the reception unit can immediately receive the genetic information. Furthermore, when the user is busy, the reception unit can receive the genetic information according to the schedule. This makes it possible to receive the genetic information at an appropriate timing according to the emotion of the user. The estimation of the emotion is realized using an emotion estimation function using, for example, an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI is, for example, a text generation AI (for example, LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to such examples. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed using, for example, an AI, or may be performed without using an AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's facial expression data to the generation AI and cause the generation AI to execute the emotion estimation.
[0065] The reception unit can analyze the user's past genetic testing history and select an appropriate reception method.

For example, the collection unit can collect information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits using the camera 42 and microphone 238 of the headset type terminal 314. The determination unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, for example, and analyzes genetic information and questionnaire information using a generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease. The notification unit can notify the user of measures through the display 343 of the headset type terminal 314, for example. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.
[0137] [Fourth embodiment] FIG. 7 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0138] 7, a data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0139] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN and / or a LAN.
[0140] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication I / F 44, and a control target 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, a RAM 48, and a storage 50. The processor 46, the RAM 48, and the storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, the speaker 240, the camera 42, and the control target 443 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0141] The microphone 238 receives instructions and the like from the user by receiving voice uttered by the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice uttered by the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs the voice according to instructions from the processor 46.
[0142] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, an aperture, and a shutter, and an imaging element such as a CMOS image sensor or a CCD image sensor, and captures images of the user's surroundings (e.g., an imaging range defined by an angle of view equivalent to the width of the field of vision of a typical healthy person).
[0143] The communication I / F 44 is connected to a network 54. The communication I / Fs 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 via the network 54. The exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 using the communication I / Fs 44 and 26 is performed in a secure state.
[0144] The control object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors for driving the arms, hands, and legs. The posture and behavior of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and legs. Some of the emotions of the robot 414 can be expressed by controlling these motors. In addition, the facial expressions of the robot 414 can also be expressed by controlling the light emission state of the LEDs in the eyes of the robot 414.
[0145] Fig. 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Fig. 8, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific process program 56 is stored in the storage 32.
[0146] The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32, and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0147] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the emotion of the user using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion. In the emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59, various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotion, including estimation and prediction of the user's emotion, are performed, but are not limited to such examples. In addition, the estimation and prediction of the emotion also include, for example, analysis of the emotion.
[0148] In the robot 414, the specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific program 60. The processor 46 reads out the specific program 60 from the storage 50, and executes the specific program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as the control unit 46A in accordance with the specific program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The robot 414 has a data generation model and an emotion identification model similar to the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59, and can also perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0149] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. In addition, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (such as a mobile phone, a robot, or a home appliance) owned by a user.
[0150] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires a voice indicating a user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits voice data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.
[0151] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of the data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating a voice, text data indicating a text, and image data indicating an image (e.g., still image data or video data) is input. The data generation model 58 infers the input inference data according to the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats of voice data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, a text generation AI, an image generation AI, and a multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned specification processing while using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model so as to output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction, and in this case, the data generation model 58 can output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. In the data processing device 12 and the like, the data generation model 58 includes a plurality of types, and the data generation model 58 includes an AI other than the generation AI. The AI other than the generation AI is, for example, a linear regression, a logistic regression, a decision tree, a random forest, a support vector machine (SVM), a k-means clustering, a convolutional neural network (CNN), a recurrent neural network (RNN), a generative adversarial network (GAN), or a naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to such examples. The AI may be an AI agent. In addition, when the processes of each part described above are performed by an AI, the processes are performed in part or in whole by the AI, but are not limited to such examples. In addition, the processes performed by the AI including the generation AI may be replaced with rule-based processes, and the rule-based processes may be replaced with processes performed by the AI including the generation AI.
[0152] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but may be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information required for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, etc., and the robot 414 acquires or collects information required for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device, etc.
[0153] For example, the reception unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 or the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12. For example, the collection unit can collect information on the user's health condition and lifestyle habits using the camera 42 and microphone 238 of the robot 414. The determination unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, for example, and analyzes genetic information and questionnaire information using a generation AI to determine the risk of developing a disease. The notification unit can notify the user of measures through the speaker 240 of the robot 414, for example. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.
[0154] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the emotion of the user according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the emotion of the user according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the emotion of the robot, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the emotion of the robot.
[0155] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive emotions are arranged. The more outside the concentric circles, the more emotions that represent states and actions that arise from a state of mind are arranged. Emotions are a concept that includes emotions and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions that occur in the brain are arranged. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are arranged. On the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions that occur in the brain and are induced by situational judgment are arranged. In addition, on the upper side of the concentric circles, emotions of "pleasure" are arranged, and on the lower side, emotions of "discomfort" are arranged. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[0156] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction of emotion map 400 and usually fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.
[0157] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on inside one's mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further out you go on emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[0158] Here, human emotions are based on various balances such as posture and blood sugar level, and when these balances are far from the ideal, it indicates an unpleasant state, and when they are close to the ideal, it indicates a pleasant state. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, motorcycles, etc., based on various balances such as posture and battery level, so that when these balances are far from the ideal, it indicates an unpleasant state, and when they are close to the ideal, it indicates a pleasant state. The emotion map may be generated, for example, based on the emotion map of Dr. Mitsuyoshi (Research on speech emotion recognition and emotion brain physiological signal analysis system, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). On the left half of the emotion map, emotions belonging to an area called "reaction" where sensation is dominant are lined up. On the right half of the emotion map, emotions belonging to an area called "situation" where situation recognition is dominant are lined up.
[0159] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. The first is the negative emotion around the middle of "repentance" or "remorse" on the situation side. In other words, this is when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is the positive emotion around "desire" on the response side. In other words, this is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0160] The emotion identification model 59 inputs the user input to a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the emotion of the user. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple learning data that are combinations of the user input and emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in Fig. 10. Fig. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relief," "calm," and "encouraging," have similar emotion values.
[0161] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by one computer 22, but the technology disclosed herein is not limited to this, and distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers, including computer 22.
[0162] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32 has been described, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable computer-readable non-transitory storage medium such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-transitory storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes the specific processing in accordance with the specific processing program 56.
[0163] In addition, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 upon request from the data processing device 12.
[0164] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.
[0165] As the hardware resource for executing the specific process, various processors as shown below can be used. An example of the processor is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing the specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. Another example of the processor is a dedicated electric circuit, which is a processor having a circuit configuration designed exclusively for executing a specific process, such as a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), a Programmable Logic Device (PLD), or an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). Each processor has a built-in or connected memory, and each processor executes the specific process by using the memory.
[0166] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be one of these various processors, or may be a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific process may be a single processor.
[0167] As an example of a configuration using one processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process. Second, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.
[0168] Furthermore, more specifically, the hardware structure of these various processors can be an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor elements. The specific processes described above are merely examples. It goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the order of processes may be changed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[0169] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments are described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, the smart glasses 214, the headset terminal 314, and the robot 414 are only examples, and they may be combined with each other, or may be other devices. In the above example, the first and second embodiments are described separately, but they may be combined.

For example, the above description of the configuration, function, action, and effect is an example of the configuration, function, action, and effect of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replaced with respect to the description and illustrations shown above, within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. In addition, in order to avoid confusion and to facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the description and illustrations shown above omit explanations of technical common sense that do not require particular explanation in enabling the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
