[0028] (Example 1) The AI system according to the embodiment of the present invention is a system that recognizes voices during a meeting using natural language processing, and generates minutes and summaries. This system analyzes the contents of statements made during a meeting in real time, and automatically extracts important decisions and homework items. This allows the next action after the meeting to be taken quickly. Furthermore, during the meeting, the AI judges the progress of the meeting and assists in leading the meeting to the goal. This improves the performance of the meeting. For example, the voice during the meeting is recognized in real time and converted into text data. At this time, the contents of the statement are analyzed using natural language processing technology. For example, if a speaker says, "I will prepare materials by the next meeting," the AI analyzes this statement and extracts it as a homework item. Next, minutes are automatically generated based on the extracted decisions and homework items. The minutes include the date and time of the meeting, participants, agenda, statement content, decisions, homework items, etc. This eliminates the need to manually create minutes after the meeting. Furthermore, during the meeting, the AI judges the progress of the meeting and assists in leading the meeting to the goal. For example, if a meeting is about to exceed the scheduled time, the AI will assist by saying, "Time is running out, so let's move on to the next agenda item." This allows the meeting to proceed smoothly and efficiently. This system improves meeting performance and enables next actions to be taken quickly. For example, homework can be started immediately after the meeting, and necessary preparations can be made before the next meeting. In addition, smoother meeting progress allows all participants to proceed with discussions efficiently. This allows the AI system to recognize voices during the meeting in real time and generate minutes and summaries, allowing next actions to be taken quickly after the meeting. In addition, the performance of the meeting is improved by determining the progress of the meeting and assisting in leading it to the goal.
[0029] The AI system according to the embodiment includes a recognition unit, an analysis unit, a generation unit, a judgment unit, and an assistance unit. The recognition unit converts voices during a meeting into text data in real time. The recognition unit instantly converts statements during a meeting into text data, for example, using a voice recognition technology. For example, the recognition unit converts the contents of statements into text data in real time using voice recognition software. The recognition unit can also use voice recognition technology to identify the voice of a speaker and convert the contents of statements into text data individually. For example, the recognition unit can use voice recognition technology to generate different text data for each speaker. Furthermore, the recognition unit can also use voice recognition technology to filter background sounds during a meeting and recognize only the voice of the speaker. For example, the recognition unit uses noise canceling technology to remove noise in the meeting room and clearly recognize only the voice of the speaker. The analysis unit uses natural language processing technology to analyze the text data converted by the recognition unit and extract important decisions and homework items. The analysis unit uses, for example, morphological analysis technology to analyze the contents of statements and extract important keywords. For example, the analysis unit uses a morphological analysis technique to extract important keywords from the utterance content and classifies them according to importance. The analysis unit can also use a grammar analysis technique to analyze the grammatical structure of the utterance content and extract important information. For example, the analysis unit uses a grammar analysis technique to analyze the grammatical structure of the utterance content and extract important information. The analysis unit can also use a semantic analysis technique to analyze the meaning of the utterance content and extract important information. For example, the analysis unit uses a semantic analysis technique to analyze the meaning of the utterance content and extract important information. The generation unit automatically generates minutes based on the information extracted by the analysis unit. The generation unit automatically generates minutes using, for example, a template.

As a result, the AI system according to the embodiment recognizes voices during the meeting in real time and generates minutes and summaries, thereby enabling the next action after the meeting to be taken quickly. Furthermore, the performance of the meeting is improved by determining the progress of the meeting and assisting in leading it to the goal.
[0030] The recognition unit converts the voice during the meeting into text data in real time. The recognition unit, for example, uses a voice recognition technology to instantly convert remarks during the meeting into text data. Specifically, the voice recognition software converts the voice signal into digital data, and analyzes the data to convert it into text. The voice recognition technology includes an acoustic model and a language model, where the acoustic model captures the characteristics of the voice signal, and the language model selects the most appropriate words based on the context. For example, the recognition unit uses the voice recognition software to convert the remarks into text data in real time. The recognition unit can also use the voice recognition technology to identify the voice of the speaker and convert the remarks into text data individually. For example, the recognition unit uses the voice recognition technology to generate different text data for each speaker. This is done by using a speaker identification technology to learn the voice characteristics of each speaker and identify the speaker. Furthermore, the recognition unit can also use the voice recognition technology to filter background sounds during the meeting and recognize only the speaker's voice. For example, the recognition unit can use a noise canceling technology to remove noise in the meeting room and clearly recognize only the speaker's voice. Noise canceling technology detects ambient noise in real time and generates an inverse phase sound to cancel out the noise. This allows the recognition unit to convert the voices in a meeting into text data with high accuracy and clearly record the content of each speaker's speech.
[0031] The analysis unit uses natural language processing technology to analyze the text data converted by the recognition unit and extracts important decisions and homework items. The analysis unit uses, for example, morphological analysis technology to analyze the content of the statement and extract important keywords. The morphological analysis technology divides the text into words and analyzes the parts of speech and meanings of each word. For example, the analysis unit uses morphological analysis technology to extract important keywords from the content of the statement and classifies them according to importance. The analysis unit can also use grammatical analysis technology to analyze the grammatical structure of the content of the statement and extract important information. The grammatical analysis technology analyzes the grammatical structure of the text and clarifies the relationship between the subject, predicate, object, and the like. For example, the analysis unit uses grammatical analysis technology to analyze the grammatical structure of the content of the statement and extract important information. The analysis unit can also use semantic analysis technology to analyze the meaning of the content of the statement and extract important information. The semantic analysis technology understands the meaning of the text and identifies important information based on the context. For example, the analysis unit uses semantic analysis technology to analyze the meaning of what is said and extract important information. This allows the analysis unit to analyze what is said during a meeting from multiple angles and accurately extract important decisions and homework items. Furthermore, the analysis unit can comprehensively evaluate the progress of the meeting and the content of the participants' comments based on the extracted information and propose the next action.
[0032] The generating unit automatically generates the minutes based on the information extracted by the analyzing unit. The generating unit automatically generates the minutes using, for example, a template. The template includes items such as the date and time of the meeting, participants, agenda, remarks, decisions, and homework items, and the minutes are automatically generated by embedding the extracted information in these items. For example, the generating unit automatically generates the minutes including the date and time of the meeting, participants, agenda, remarks, decisions, and homework items using a template. The generating unit can also automatically generate the minutes using a generating algorithm. The generating algorithm generates natural sentences based on the extracted information and creates the minutes. For example, the generating unit automatically generates the minutes based on the extracted information using the generating algorithm. Furthermore, the generating unit can display the remarks of each speaker in different colors when generating the minutes. For example, the generating unit displays the remarks of each speaker in different colors to visually distinguish them. In this way, the generation unit can visually display the contents of the meeting in an easy-to-understand manner, making it easy for participants to understand the minutes. The generation unit can also store the generated minutes on the cloud, making it possible for participants to access them at any time. In this way, the generation unit can accurately and quickly record the contents of the meeting, making it easy for participants to check the minutes later.
[0033] The judgment unit monitors the progress of the conference in real time and judges the progress. For example, the judgment unit monitors the progress in real time and identifies delays in progress and problems. Specifically, the judgment unit monitors the progress of the conference and records the progress time of each agenda and the speaking time of the speaker. For example, the judgment unit monitors the progress in real time and identifies delays in progress and problems. The judgment unit can also analyze the progress and propose the timing of moving to the next agenda. For example, the judgment unit analyzes the progress and proposes the timing of moving to the next agenda. Furthermore, the judgment unit can analyze the progress and visualize the speech frequency and speaking time of the participants. For example, the judgment unit analyzes the progress and visualizes the speech frequency and speaking time of the participants. In this way, the judgment unit can comprehensively evaluate the progress of the conference and move to the next agenda at an appropriate timing. The judgment unit can also adjust the speaking balance of the participants based on the progress of the conference so that everyone can speak equally. For example, if a specific participant speaks for a long time, the judgment unit encourages other participants to provide an opportunity to speak as well. This allows the decision-making unit to ensure that the meeting proceeds smoothly and creates an environment in which everyone can actively participate.
[0034] The assisting unit assists the progress of the conference based on the judgment of the judging unit. The assisting unit, for example, sends a reminder to prompt the transition to the next agenda item. Specifically, the assisting unit monitors the progress of the conference and sends a reminder at the timing of transition to the next agenda item.

[0175] 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.

[0176] Each of the multiple elements including the above-mentioned recognition unit, analysis unit, generation unit, judgment unit, and assist unit is realized, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing device 12. For example, the recognition unit acquires voice during the conference using the microphone 238 of the robot 414, and converts it into text data in real time by the control unit 46A. The analysis unit is realized, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and analyzes the text data using natural language processing technology to extract important decisions and homework items.

The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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).
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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."
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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.
[0190] 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.
[0191] 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.
