[0137] The ordering unit can also analyze the user's past order history and adjust the frequency of orders based on the analyzed history. For example, it can periodically suggest ingredients that the user has frequently ordered in the past. It can also suggest ingredients that the user has ordered in the past that have given the user a particularly high level of satisfaction. It can also adjust the order content to avoid ingredients that the user has ordered in the past that have caused an allergic reaction. This makes it possible to make orders that provide a higher level of satisfaction by utilizing the past order history.
[0138] The process flow of the second embodiment will be briefly described below.
[0139] Step 1: The input unit inputs the user's health data. The health data includes, for example, weight, blood pressure, and diet history. The input unit allows the user to input the health data using a smartphone or a computer, and can also automatically obtain the health data from a wearable device. Step 2: The recommendation unit recommends necessary ingredients and menus based on the health data entered by the input unit. The recommendation unit recommends ingredients rich in calcium and vitamin D for growing children and easy-to-digest ingredients for the elderly. The recommendation unit uses AI to analyze the user's health data and suggest optimal ingredients and menus. Step 3: The ordering department orders the ingredients recommended by the recommendation department online. The ordering department can order the necessary ingredients based on the suggested menu at an online shopping site. The ordering department uses AI to analyze the user's order history and suggests the optimal ordering method. Step 4: The delivery department delivers the food ordered by the ordering department to the customer's home using a delivery service. The delivery department can deliver the food to the customer's home using a delivery service such as a courier or drone delivery. The delivery department uses AI to calculate the optimal delivery route and delivers the food quickly and efficiently. Step 5: The generation unit uses the recipes automatically generated by AI to generate recipes based on the proposed menu. The generation unit can generate recipes using machine learning algorithms and natural language processing technology. The generation unit generates recipes that take into account the user's preferences and the characteristics of ingredients. Step 6: The cooking unit uses the cooking robot to cook based on the recipe generated by the generation unit. The cooking unit can use a cooking robot of a specific manufacturer and model to cook. The cooking unit uses AI to optimize the operation of the cooking robot and cook efficiently.

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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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.
[0190] 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.
[0191] 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.
[0192] Each of the multiple elements including the above-mentioned input unit, recommendation unit, order unit, delivery unit, generation unit, cooking unit, and output unit is realized, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing device 12. For example, the input unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and inputs the user's health data. The recommendation unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and recommends necessary ingredients and a menu based on the health data. The order unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and orders the recommended ingredients online. The delivery unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and delivers the ordered ingredients to the home using a delivery service. The generation unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and generates a recipe using a recipe automatically generated by AI. The cooking unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and the cooking robot cooks based on the generated recipe. The output unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and notifies the user of the meal that has been cooked and provides the meal. The input unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, analyzes the user's emotion, and adjusts the timing of inputting the health data based on the analyzed emotion. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above example, and various modifications are possible.
[0193] 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.
[0194] 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.
[0195] 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.
[0196] 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 on emotion map 400 you go, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[0197] 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.
[0198] 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."
[0199] 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.
[0200] 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.
[0201] 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.
[0202] 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.
[0203] 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.
[0204] 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.
[0205] 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.
[0206] 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.
[0207] 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.
[0208] 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.
