[0028] (Example 1) The advertisement delivery system according to the embodiment of the present invention is a system that analyzes a large amount of data and delivers optimal advertisements based on the preferences and behavioral patterns of individual customers. This advertisement delivery system collects data on the behavioral history and preferences of customers, and the AI ​​analyzes the data to grasp the preferences of the customers in real time. Based on this, the AI ​​determines the optimal promotion and generates content such as videos, images, and comics. Furthermore, the AI ​​analyzes the behavioral history of the customers, determines the delivery method (email, website, in-app, etc.) and time period with the highest probability of viewing, and implements the promotion. For example, the advertisement delivery system collects detailed data such as what products the customers viewed, which pages they visited, and which links they clicked. This makes it possible to grasp the preferences and behavioral patterns of the customers. Next, the AI ​​analyzes the collected data and grasps the preferences and behavioral patterns of the customers. For example, it is possible to identify customers who are highly interested in a specific product and propose an appropriate promotion to the customer. This makes it possible to provide personalized promotions tailored to the needs of the customers. Furthermore, the AI ​​determines the optimal promotion and generates content such as videos, images, and comics. For example, it is possible to generate content such as videos, images, and comics related to a specific product for customers who are highly interested in the product. This can attract customer interest and increase the effectiveness of promotions. Finally, AI analyzes the customer's behavioral history, determines the delivery method and time period with the highest probability of viewing, and then implements the promotion. For example, if a customer tends to check email at a specific time of day, promotional emails can be sent at that time. Also, if a customer frequently uses a specific website or app, promotions can be implemented on that platform. This maximizes the effectiveness of promotions. This allows the ad delivery system to provide optimal promotions based on the customer's behavioral history and preferences.

[0029] The advertisement delivery system according to the embodiment includes a collection unit, an analysis unit, a generation unit, and a delivery unit. The collection unit collects data on the behavioral history and preferences of the customer. The data on the behavioral history and preferences of the customer includes, but is not limited to, purchase history, browsing history, click history, and the like. The collection unit collects, for example, data on products viewed by the customer, pages visited, and links clicked. For example, on an e-commerce site, data is collected on which products the customer viewed and which products the customer added to a cart. This makes it possible to grasp the customer's preferences and behavioral patterns. The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit and grasps the customer's preferences and behavioral patterns. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the collected data and grasps the customer's preferences and behavioral patterns. For example, it is possible to identify a customer who is highly interested in a specific product and propose an appropriate promotion to the customer. This makes it possible to provide personalized promotions tailored to the needs of the customer. The generation unit determines an optimal promotion based on the analysis results obtained by the analysis unit and generates content. The generating unit generates content such as videos, images, and cartoons related to a specific product for a customer who is highly interested in the product. For example, the generating unit can generate content such as videos, images, and cartoons related to a specific product for a customer who is highly interested in the product. This can attract the customer's interest and increase the effectiveness of the promotion. The distribution unit distributes the content generated by the generating unit. For example, the distribution unit analyzes the customer's behavior history, determines the distribution method and time period with the highest probability of viewing, and implements the promotion. For example, if a customer tends to check email during a specific time period, a promotion email can be sent during that time period. Also, if a customer frequently uses a specific website or app, a promotion can be implemented on that platform. This can maximize the effectiveness of the promotion. This allows the advertisement distribution system according to the embodiment to provide optimal promotion based on the customer's behavior history and preferences.

[0030] The collection unit collects data on the behavioral history and preferences of customers. Specifically, the collection unit collects data such as the purchase history, browsing history, and click history of the customers' online purchases. For example, on an e-commerce site, detailed data such as which products the customers viewed, which products they added to their cart, and even which products they purchased are collected. This allows the customer's preferences and behavioral patterns to be understood in detail. The collection unit uses website tracking tools and cookies to monitor the customer's behavior in real time and collect data. In addition, the collection unit can collect information on the device and browser used by the customer to obtain more accurate data. In addition, the collection unit can collect data from other sources such as social media activity and survey results. This allows the collection unit to understand not only the customer's online behavior but also their offline preferences and behavioral patterns. The collected data is stored in a secure database and used for subsequent analysis and promotion. The collection unit can flexibly adjust the frequency and scope of data collection, and can optimally collect data in accordance with a specific campaign or promotion. This allows the collection unit to efficiently and effectively collect data on the customer's behavioral history and preferences, and improve the performance of the entire system.

[0031] The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit to grasp the customer's preferences and behavioral patterns. Specifically, the analysis unit analyzes the collected data to identify what products the customer is interested in and what behavioral patterns the customer has. For example, the analysis unit can identify customers who are highly interested in a specific product and propose appropriate promotions to the customers. The analysis unit uses machine learning algorithms and data mining technology to extract useful information from a huge amount of data. For example, the analysis unit uses a clustering algorithm to group customers based on their preferences and behavioral patterns and develops optimal promotion strategies for each group. In addition, the analysis unit can predict future customer behavior based on past data and optimize the timing and content of promotions. Furthermore, the analysis unit can use an anomaly detection algorithm to identify customers who have behavioral patterns that are different from normal and provide special support. This allows the analysis unit to provide a foundation for grasping customer preferences and behavioral patterns in detail and realizing personalized promotions.

[0032] The generation unit determines the optimal promotion and generates the content based on the analysis results obtained by the analysis unit. Specifically, for customers who are highly interested in a particular product, the generation unit generates content such as videos, images, and comics related to the product. The generation unit can automatically generate content that attracts the interest of customers using the generation AI. For example, the generation AI generates optimal promotional messages based on the customer's preferences and behavior patterns, and provides them in the form of videos, images, comics, and the like. The generation AI can generate effective messages for customers and create visually appealing content using natural language processing technology. Furthermore, the generation unit can evaluate the effectiveness of the generated content and modify the content as necessary. For example, if the generated content does not elicit a response from customers, the generation unit can change the content or format of the content and generate it again. In this way, the generation unit can provide optimal content to attract customers' interests and maximize the effectiveness of the promotion.

[0033] The distribution unit distributes the content generated by the generation unit. Specifically, the distribution unit analyzes the behavioral history of the customer, determines the distribution method and time period with the highest probability of viewing, and implements the promotion. For example, if a customer tends to check emails at a specific time period, promotional emails can be sent at that time period. Also, if a customer frequently uses a specific website or app, promotions can be implemented on that platform. The distribution unit can utilize multiple distribution channels to deliver content to customers at the optimal timing. For example, promotions are implemented by combining various channels such as email, SMS, push notifications, and social media ads. Furthermore, the distribution unit can monitor the distribution results in real time and evaluate the effectiveness. For example, the opening rate and click rate of the distributed content are analyzed to measure the effectiveness of the promotion. This allows the distribution unit to plan and implement an optimal distribution strategy to maximize the effectiveness of the promotion. Furthermore, the distribution unit can collect customer feedback and continuously improve the content and distribution method of the promotion. This allows the distribution unit to provide effective promotions to customers and improve customer satisfaction.

As a result, by adjusting the display method of the analysis result according to the user's emotion, it is possible to provide a result with higher visibility.

[0085] The analysis unit can determine the priority of the analysis based on the time of submission of the customer's behavior history during data analysis. The analysis unit, for example, prioritizes the analysis of recent behavior history and proposes the latest promotion. The analysis unit can also refer to past behavior history to grasp long-term trends. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze the history of actions concentrated in a specific period and propose a promotion specialized for that period. As a result, the latest promotion can be proposed by determining the priority of the analysis based on the time of submission of the customer's behavior history. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI.

[0099] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0100] The advertisement delivery system further includes a feedback collection unit. The feedback collection unit can collect responses to the promotion received by the customer. For example, it can record whether the customer opened a promotional email, watched a video, or clicked a link. This allows the collected feedback data to be provided to the analysis unit to improve the accuracy of the next promotion. Furthermore, the feedback collection unit can also estimate how the customer felt about the promotion and provide the emotion data to the analysis unit. This enables a more personalized promotion based on the customer's emotions.

[0101] The collection unit can analyze the social media activities of customers and collect related data.

This allows for a more detailed understanding of customers' interests and concerns, enabling more precise promotions. Furthermore, the collection unit can also collect related data based on posts that customers have "liked" on social media. This allows for more personalized promotions by collecting related data based on customers' social media activities.

[0102] The analysis unit can analyze the customer's purchasing history and make future purchasing predictions. For example, it can predict the next product that the customer is likely to purchase based on past purchasing patterns. This makes it possible to suggest appropriate promotions to the customer. Furthermore, the analysis unit can also suggest new products that the customer is likely to be interested in based on the customer's purchasing history. This makes it possible to increase the customer's purchasing motivation. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze whether the customer has a tendency to purchase products related to a particular season or event based on the customer's purchasing history. This makes it possible to suggest promotions that match the season or event.

[0103] The generation unit can generate optimal content based on the customer's past promotion response data.

Also, image content can be generated for a customer who has responded well to image content in the past. Furthermore, the generation unit can adjust the format and style of the content based on the customer's past promotion response data. This can increase the effectiveness of promotions by generating content that matches the customer's preferences.

[0104] The distribution unit can select the optimal distribution method in consideration of the geographical location information of the customer. For example, information about specific stores and services in the area where the customer is currently located can be preferentially distributed. Information about nearby events and promotions can also be distributed based on the customer's location information. Furthermore, if the customer is traveling, tourist information and information about services at the travel destination can be preferentially distributed. This allows for more effective promotion by selecting the optimal distribution method based on the geographical location information of the customer.

[0105] The collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of data collection based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, when the user is stressed, the frequency of data collection can be reduced to reduce the burden on the user. When the user is relaxed, the frequency of data collection can be increased to collect detailed data. Furthermore, when the user is excited, data can be collected in real time to obtain instant feedback. This allows the burden on the user to be reduced by adjusting the timing of data collection according to the user's emotions.

[0106] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the method of data analysis based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, a simple analysis method can be applied to provide results quickly. If the user is relaxed, a detailed analysis method can be applied to provide deep insights. Furthermore, if the user is excited, data can be analyzed in real time and instant feedback can be provided. This makes it possible to provide more appropriate analysis results by adjusting the method of data analysis according to the user's emotions.

[0107] The generation unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the content generation method based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, if the user is relaxed, a video that progresses at a leisurely pace can be generated. If the user is in a hurry, a video that emphasizes the shortest route can be generated. Furthermore, if the user is excited, a video that adds a visually stimulating effect can be generated. In this way, more appropriate content can be provided by adjusting the content generation method according to the user's emotion.

[0108] The delivery unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the delivery method based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, if the user is stressed, a simple delivery method can be selected. If the user is relaxed, a delivery method including detailed information can be selected. If the user is excited, a visually stimulating delivery method can be selected. This allows for more appropriate delivery by adjusting the delivery method according to the user's emotion.

[0109] The delivery unit can estimate the user's emotions and determine the priority of delivery based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, when the user is stressed, information of high importance can be delivered with priority. When the user is relaxed, detailed information can be delivered with priority. When the user is excited, visually stimulating information can be delivered with priority. Thus, important information can be delivered with priority by determining the priority of delivery according to the user's emotions.

[0110] The process flow of the second embodiment will be briefly described below.

[0111] Step 1: The collection unit collects data on the customer's behavioral history and preferences. For example, this includes purchase history, browsing history, and click history. The collection unit collects data on the products the customer viewed, the pages they visited, and the links they clicked. This allows the collection unit to understand the customer's preferences and behavioral patterns. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit to understand customer preferences and behavioral patterns. For example, it can identify customers who are highly interested in a particular product and propose appropriate promotions to those customers. Step 3: The generation unit determines the optimal promotion and generates content based on the analysis results obtained by the analysis unit. For example, for customers who are highly interested in a particular product, it generates content such as videos, images, and comics related to that product. Step 4: The distribution unit distributes the content generated by the generation unit. For example, the distribution unit analyzes the behavioral history of customers, determines the distribution method and time period that will maximize the probability of viewing, and then implements promotions.

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.

[0160] 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.

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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] Each of the multiple elements including the above-mentioned collection unit, analysis unit, generation unit, and distribution unit is realized, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing device 12. For example, the collection unit collects data on the behavior history and preferences of customers using the camera 42 and microphone 238 of the robot 414. The analysis unit is realized, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and analyzes the collected data to grasp the preferences and behavior patterns of customers. The generation unit is realized, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and determines the optimal promotion based on the analysis result and generates content. The distribution unit is realized, for example, by the control unit 46A of the robot 414, and distributes the generated content to customers. The collection unit can, for example, estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of data collection based on the estimated user's emotions. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.

[0168] 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).

[0169] 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.

[0170] 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."

[0171] 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.

[0172] 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.

[0173] 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.

[0174] 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.

[0175] 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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.

[0178] 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] 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.
