[0020] The reception device 38 includes a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and receives user input. The touch panel 38A detects contact with a pointer (e.g., a pen or a finger) to receive user input by the touch of the pointer. The microphone 38B detects the user's voice to receive user input by voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and the microphone 38B to the data processing device 12.

[0022] The communication I / F 44 is connected to a network 54. The communication I / Fs 44 and 26 are responsible for transmitting and receiving various types of information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 via the network 54.
[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. 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.
[0026] In the smart device 14, the specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The specific processing program 60 is used together with the specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10.

The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as the control unit 46A in accordance with the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. Note that the smart device 14 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.
[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) The system according to the embodiment of the present invention is a system that uses a smartphone to diagnose when receiving and responding to malfunctions at a call center, thereby shortening the counter work and the user's response time. This system starts when a user reads a two-dimensional code attached to a network device with a smartphone. Next, a questionnaire corresponding to the network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code is displayed, and the user fills it out. The questionnaire includes questions about the details of the malfunction experienced by the user and the condition of the device. Next, the user takes a picture of the lamp of the network device with a smartphone and uploads the image to the system. The system inputs the questionnaire and the lamp image into the AI learning model to obtain the malfunction response and the countermeasure. The obtained malfunction response and the countermeasure are presented to the user. For example, if the lamp of the network device is lit red, the AI analyzes the state and presents countermeasures such as restarting the power supply and checking the cable connection. This allows the user to perform simple countermeasures by himself, and reduces inquiries to the call center. This system makes the counter work of the call center more efficient and shortens the user's response time. Furthermore, since the user can solve the problem by himself, the satisfaction level is also improved. This allows the system to use smartphones to diagnose problems when they are received at the call center, shortening counter operations and user response times.
[0029] The system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, an entry unit, an acquisition unit, and a presentation unit. The reception unit reads a two-dimensional code attached to a network device. The two-dimensional code includes, for example, a QR code (registered trademark) and a Data Matrix code, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit can read the two-dimensional code using, for example, a smartphone camera. The reception unit can also improve the reading accuracy of the two-dimensional code using AI. The entry unit fills in a questionnaire according to a network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The questionnaire includes, for example, details of a malfunction experienced by a user and questions regarding the state of the device, but is not limited to such examples. The entry unit allows, for example, a user to fill in the questionnaire on a smartphone screen. The entry unit can also analyze the contents of the questionnaire using AI and present appropriate questions. The acquisition unit acquires a lamp image obtained by photographing a lamp of a network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The lamp image includes, for example, a shooting angle and a resolution, but is not limited to such examples. The acquisition unit can photograph the lamp image using, for example, a smartphone camera. The acquisition unit can also improve the acquisition accuracy of the lamp image by using AI. The presentation unit acquires the fault response or countermeasure method of the network device by inputting the questionnaire and the lamp image into a learning model, and presents the acquired fault response or countermeasure method. The learning model includes, for example, a deep learning model and a support vector machine, but is not limited to such examples. The presentation unit can acquire the fault response or countermeasure method by using, for example, a generation AI. As a result, the system according to the embodiment can efficiently present the fault response or countermeasure method of the network device.
[0030] The reception unit reads the two-dimensional code attached to the network device. Examples of the two-dimensional code include, but are not limited to, QR codes and DataMatrix codes. The reception unit can read the two-dimensional code using, for example, a smartphone camera. Specifically, the smartphone camera app is started and the two-dimensional code is placed within the camera frame, so that the content of the code is automatically analyzed and the necessary information is obtained. The reception unit can also improve the reading accuracy of the two-dimensional code using AI. For example, AI can accurately read blurred images and partially missing codes using image recognition technology. Furthermore, AI can analyze codes photographed under different lighting conditions and from different angles with high accuracy. This allows the reception unit to allow the user to easily and quickly read the two-dimensional code and efficiently obtain information about the network device. Furthermore, the reception unit can automatically register the information of the read two-dimensional code in a database and link with other departments and systems. For example, the read information can be sent to a cloud server so that other systems can access it, thereby improving the overall business efficiency.
[0031] The entry unit fills in a questionnaire corresponding to the network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The questionnaire includes, for example, details of the malfunction experienced by the user and questions regarding the state of the device, but is not limited to such examples. The entry unit allows, for example, the user to fill in the questionnaire on the screen of a smartphone. Specifically, the user accesses the questionnaire through a smartphone app and answers the questions using a touch screen. The entry unit can also analyze the contents of the questionnaire by using AI and present appropriate questions. For example, the AI can analyze the contents of the user's answers in real time and dynamically change the questions to be presented next, thereby collecting more detailed and relevant information. Furthermore, the AI can automatically add important questions that the user is likely to overlook based on past data and similar cases. This allows the entry unit to allow the user to fill in the questionnaire efficiently and accurately, and to collect detailed information regarding malfunctions of the network device. Furthermore, the entry unit can reduce the burden on the user by automatically saving the contents entered by the user and making them available for later reference. For example, even if the user interrupts input midway, the previous input contents are retained when the user accesses the device again, so the user can smoothly continue input.
[0032] The acquisition unit acquires a lamp image of a lamp of a network device corresponding to a two-dimensional code. The lamp image includes, for example, a shooting angle and a resolution, but is not limited to such examples. The acquisition unit can, for example, shoot a lamp image using a smartphone camera. Specifically, a user aims the smartphone camera at a lamp of a network device and shoots it, and the acquisition unit automatically analyzes the image. The acquisition unit can also improve the acquisition accuracy of the lamp image using AI. For example, the AI can remove noise from the captured image using image processing technology and accurately recognize the state of the lamp. Furthermore, the AI can analyze the state of the lamp with high accuracy even in images taken under different lighting conditions and from different angles. This allows the acquisition unit to allow a user to easily and quickly acquire a lamp image and accurately grasp the state of the network device. Furthermore, the acquisition unit can automatically register the acquired lamp image in a database and link with other departments and systems. For example, the acquired image can be sent to a cloud server and made accessible to other systems, thereby improving the overall business efficiency.
[0033] The presentation unit obtains the fault response or countermeasure method of the network device by inputting the questionnaire and the lamp image into the learning model, and presents the obtained fault response or countermeasure method. The learning model includes, for example, a deep learning model and a support vector machine, but is not limited to such examples. The presentation unit can obtain the fault response or countermeasure method, for example, by using a generation AI. Specifically, the generation AI analyzes the contents of the questionnaire and the lamp image, and generates an optimal fault response method based on past data and similar cases. For example, a deep learning model can learn based on a huge data set and predict the fault pattern of the network device with high accuracy. In addition, a support vector machine can combine the answers to the questionnaire and the features of the lamp image to classify the optimal countermeasure method. This allows the presentation unit to provide the user with a quick and accurate fault response method. Furthermore, the presentation unit can use the generation AI to explain the countermeasure method to the user in an easy-to-understand manner. For example, by showing specific steps using not only text format but also images and videos, the user can easily understand and execute them. In addition, the presentation unit can collect user feedback and continuously improve the accuracy of the learning model. This allows the presentation unit to always provide highly accurate fault handling methods based on the latest information, thereby improving user satisfaction.
[0034] The entry unit can enter a questionnaire including details of the malfunction experienced by the user and questions regarding the state of the device. For example, the entry unit provides a questionnaire including questions such as error messages and occurrence frequency in order to efficiently collect details of the malfunction experienced by the user. The entry unit can also provide a questionnaire including questions regarding the state of the device. For example, the entry unit provides a questionnaire including questions such as operation status and connection status. This makes it possible to efficiently collect details of the malfunction experienced by the user. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the entry unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the entry unit can input the contents of the questionnaire filled in by the user to AI, and the AI can analyze the details of the malfunction.
[0035] The presentation unit can obtain the fault response or the countermeasure method by using the generation AI. The presentation unit can obtain the fault response or the countermeasure method by using, for example, the generation AI. The generation AI includes, for example, GPT and Gemini, but is not limited to such examples. The presentation unit can input a questionnaire and a lamp image to the generation AI and obtain the fault response or the countermeasure method. For example, the presentation unit inputs a prompt to the generation AI, "Please tell me what to do when the lamp of the network device is lit red," and the generation AI outputs a countermeasure method such as restarting the power supply or checking the cable connection. As a result, the accuracy of the fault response or the countermeasure method is improved by using the generation AI. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the presentation unit may be performed, for example, by using an AI, or may be performed without using an AI. For example, the presentation unit can input a questionnaire and a lamp image to the generation AI and obtain the fault response or the countermeasure method.
[0036] The reception unit can analyze the user's past reading history and select an appropriate reading method. The reception unit, for example, analyzes the user's past reading history and selects the optimal reading method. The reading history includes, for example, past success rates and frequency of use, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the reception unit proposes an optimal method based on the reading methods (camera angle, distance, etc.) used by the user in the past. The reception unit can also preferentially propose reading methods that the user has been successful in the past. Furthermore, the reception unit can also propose an optimal reading method for a specific time period from the user's past reading history. As a result, the success rate of reading is improved by proposing the optimal method based on the user's past reading 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 the user's past reading history into AI and cause AI to select the optimal reading method.
[0037] The reception unit can perform filtering based on the user's current network environment when reading the two-dimensional code. The reception unit performs filtering based on the user's current network environment when reading the two-dimensional code, for example. The network environment includes, but is not limited to, for example, connection speed and signal strength. For example, when the user's network environment is unstable, the reception unit suspends reading and waits until it stabilizes. In addition, when the user's network environment is high-speed, the reception unit can also perform reading quickly. Furthermore, the reception unit can automatically adjust optimal reading settings based on the user's network environment. This improves the accuracy of reading by adjusting the reading according to the user's network environment. 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 the user's network environment data to AI and have the AI perform filtering.
[0038] The reception unit can preferentially read highly relevant codes in consideration of the geographical location information of the user when reading the two-dimensional code. For example, the reception unit preferentially reads highly relevant codes in consideration of the geographical location information of the user when reading the two-dimensional code. The geographical location information includes, for example, GPS data and location information services, but is not limited to such examples. For example, when the user is in a specific area, the reception unit preferentially reads codes related to the area. In addition, when the user is moving, the reception unit can also preferentially read codes closest to the current location. Furthermore, when the user is in a specific facility, the reception unit can also preferentially read codes related to the facility. This enables efficient response by preferentially reading highly relevant codes based on the geographical location information of the user. 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 the geographical location information of the user to AI and cause the AI to select highly relevant codes.
[0039] The reception unit can analyze the social media activity of the user and read the related code when reading the two-dimensional code. For example, the reception unit analyzes the social media activity of the user and reads the related code when reading the two-dimensional code. The social media activity includes, for example, the content of posts and the number of followers, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the reception unit preferentially reads the related code based on the information shared by the user on social media. The reception unit can also preferentially read the code related to the account that the user follows on social media. Furthermore, the reception unit can also preferentially read the code related to the topic in which the user showed interest on social media. As a result, it is possible to respond according to the needs of the user by preferentially reading the related code based on the user's social media activity. 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 the user's social media activity data into AI and cause the AI to select the related code.

For example, the entry unit selects the optimal question by referring to the user's past malfunction history when entering. The malfunction history includes, for example, past error logs and repair history, but is not limited to such examples.

[0059] The process flow of the first embodiment will be briefly described below.
[0060] Step 1: The reception unit reads a two-dimensional code attached to a network device. Examples of two-dimensional codes include, but are not limited to, QR codes and Data Matrix codes. The reception unit can read the two-dimensional code using, for example, a smartphone camera. The reception unit can also improve the reading accuracy of the two-dimensional code using AI. Step 2: The entry unit fills in a questionnaire corresponding to the network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The questionnaire includes, for example, details of the malfunction experienced by the user and questions regarding the state of the device, but is not limited to such examples. The entry unit allows the user to fill in the questionnaire on the screen of a smartphone, for example. The entry unit can also use AI to analyze the contents of the questionnaire and present appropriate questions. Step 3: The acquisition unit acquires a lamp image obtained by capturing an image of a lamp of a network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The lamp image includes, for example, a capture angle and a resolution, but is not limited to such examples. The acquisition unit can capture the lamp image using, for example, a smartphone camera.

The learning model includes, but is not limited to, a deep learning model or a support vector machine. The presentation unit can obtain the fault response or countermeasure method by using, for example, a generation AI.
[0061] (Example 2) The system according to the embodiment of the present invention is a system that uses a smartphone to diagnose when receiving and responding to malfunctions at a call center, thereby shortening the counter work and the user's response time. This system starts when a user reads a two-dimensional code attached to a network device with a smartphone. Next, a questionnaire corresponding to the network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code is displayed, and the user fills it out. The questionnaire includes questions about the details of the malfunction experienced by the user and the condition of the device. Next, the user takes a picture of the lamp of the network device with a smartphone and uploads the image to the system. The system inputs the questionnaire and the lamp image into the AI learning model to obtain the malfunction response and the countermeasure. The obtained malfunction response and the countermeasure are presented to the user. For example, if the lamp of the network device is lit red, the AI analyzes the state and presents countermeasures such as restarting the power supply and checking the cable connection. This allows the user to perform simple countermeasures by himself, and reduces inquiries to the call center. This system makes the counter work of the call center more efficient and shortens the user's response time. Furthermore, since the user can solve the problem by himself, the satisfaction level is also improved. This allows the system to use smartphones to diagnose problems when they are received at the call center, shortening counter operations and user response times.
[0062] The system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, an entry unit, an acquisition unit, and a presentation unit. The reception unit reads a two-dimensional code attached to a network device. The two-dimensional code includes, for example, a QR code and a Data Matrix code, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit can read the two-dimensional code using, for example, a smartphone camera. The reception unit can also improve the reading accuracy of the two-dimensional code using AI. The entry unit fills in a questionnaire according to a network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The questionnaire includes, for example, details of a malfunction experienced by a user and questions regarding the state of the device, but is not limited to such examples. The entry unit allows, for example, a user to fill in the questionnaire on a smartphone screen.

[0063] The reception unit reads the two-dimensional code attached to the network device. Examples of the two-dimensional code include, but are not limited to, QR codes and DataMatrix codes. The reception unit can read the two-dimensional code using, for example, a smartphone camera. Specifically, the smartphone camera app is started and the two-dimensional code is placed within the camera frame, so that the content of the code is automatically analyzed and the necessary information is obtained. The reception unit can also improve the reading accuracy of the two-dimensional code using AI. For example, AI can accurately read blurred images and partially missing codes using image recognition technology. Furthermore, AI can analyze codes photographed under different lighting conditions and from different angles with high accuracy. This allows the reception unit to allow the user to easily and quickly read the two-dimensional code and efficiently obtain information about the network device. Furthermore, the reception unit can automatically register the information of the read two-dimensional code in a database and link with other departments and systems. For example, the read information can be sent to a cloud server so that other systems can access it, thereby improving the overall business efficiency.
[0064] The entry unit fills in a questionnaire corresponding to the network device corresponding to the two-dimensional code. The questionnaire includes, for example, details of the malfunction experienced by the user and questions regarding the state of the device, but is not limited to such examples. The entry unit allows, for example, the user to fill in the questionnaire on the screen of a smartphone. Specifically, the user accesses the questionnaire through a smartphone app and answers the questions using a touch screen. The entry unit can also analyze the contents of the questionnaire by using AI and present appropriate questions. For example, the AI can analyze the contents of the user's answers in real time and dynamically change the questions to be presented next, thereby collecting more detailed and relevant information. Furthermore, the AI can automatically add important questions that the user is likely to overlook based on past data and similar cases. This allows the entry unit to allow the user to fill in the questionnaire efficiently and accurately, and to collect detailed information regarding malfunctions of the network device. Furthermore, the entry unit can reduce the burden on the user by automatically saving the contents entered by the user and making them available for later reference. For example, even if the user interrupts input midway, the previous input contents are retained when the user accesses the device again, so the user can smoothly continue input.
[0065] The acquisition unit acquires a lamp image of a lamp of a network device corresponding to a two-dimensional code. The lamp image includes, for example, a shooting angle and a resolution, but is not limited to such examples. The acquisition unit can, for example, shoot a lamp image using a smartphone camera. Specifically, a user aims the smartphone camera at a lamp of a network device and shoots it, and the acquisition unit automatically analyzes the image. The acquisition unit can also improve the acquisition accuracy of the lamp image using AI. For example, the AI can remove noise from the captured image using image processing technology and accurately recognize the state of the lamp. Furthermore, the AI can analyze the state of the lamp with high accuracy even in images taken under different lighting conditions and from different angles. This allows the acquisition unit to allow a user to easily and quickly acquire a lamp image and accurately grasp the state of the network device. Furthermore, the acquisition unit can automatically register the acquired lamp image in a database and link with other departments and systems. For example, the acquired image can be sent to a cloud server and made accessible to other systems, thereby improving the overall business efficiency.
[0066] The presentation unit obtains the fault response or countermeasure method of the network device by inputting the questionnaire and the lamp image into the learning model, and presents the obtained fault response or countermeasure method. The learning model includes, for example, a deep learning model and a support vector machine, but is not limited to such examples. The presentation unit can obtain the fault response or countermeasure method, for example, by using a generation AI. Specifically, the generation AI analyzes the contents of the questionnaire and the lamp image, and generates an optimal fault response method based on past data and similar cases. For example, a deep learning model can learn based on a huge data set and predict the fault pattern of the network device with high accuracy. In addition, a support vector machine can combine the answers to the questionnaire and the features of the lamp image to classify the optimal countermeasure method. This allows the presentation unit to provide the user with a quick and accurate fault response method. Furthermore, the presentation unit can use the generation AI to explain the countermeasure method to the user in an easy-to-understand manner. For example, by showing specific steps using not only text format but also images and videos, the user can easily understand and execute them. In addition, the presentation unit can collect user feedback and continuously improve the accuracy of the learning model. This allows the presentation unit to always provide highly accurate fault handling methods based on the latest information, thereby improving user satisfaction.

For example, the presentation unit inputs a prompt to the generation AI, "Please tell me what to do when the lamp of the network device is lit red," and the generation AI outputs a countermeasure method such as restarting the power supply or checking the cable connection. As a result, the accuracy of the fault response or the countermeasure method is improved by using the generation AI.

For example, the presentation unit can input a questionnaire and a lamp image to the generation AI and obtain the fault response or the countermeasure method.
[0069] The reception unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the timing of reading the two-dimensional code based on the estimated user's emotion. The reception unit, for example, estimates the user's emotion and adjusts the timing of reading the two-dimensional code based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, a technology such as facial expression recognition or voice analysis is used to estimate the user's emotion, but is not limited to such examples. For example, when the user is feeling stressed, the reception unit delays the timing of reading to provide the user with time to relax. In addition, when the user is in a hurry, the reception unit can also advance the timing of reading to quickly respond. Furthermore, when the user is feeling anxious, the reception unit can adjust the timing of reading to give the user a sense of security. In this way, the user's stress can be reduced by adjusting the timing of reading the two-dimensional code according to the user's emotion. 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.

The reading history includes, for example, past success rates and frequency of use, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the reception unit proposes an optimal method based on the reading methods (camera angle, distance, etc.) used by the user in the past. The reception unit can also preferentially propose reading methods that the user has been successful in the past. Furthermore, the reception unit can also propose an optimal reading method for a specific time period from the user's past reading history. As a result, the success rate of reading is improved by proposing the optimal method based on the user's past reading history.

The reception unit performs filtering based on the user's current network environment when reading the two-dimensional code, for example. The network environment includes, but is not limited to, for example, connection speed and signal strength. For example, when the user's network environment is unstable, the reception unit suspends reading and waits until it stabilizes. In addition, when the user's network environment is high-speed, the reception unit can also perform reading quickly. Furthermore, the reception unit can automatically adjust optimal reading settings based on the user's network environment. This improves the accuracy of reading by adjusting the reading according to the user's network environment. 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 the user's network environment data to AI and have the AI perform filtering.
[0072] The reception unit can estimate the user's emotion and determine the priority order of the two-dimensional code to be read based on the estimated user's emotion. The reception unit, for example, estimates the user's emotion and determines the priority order of the two-dimensional code to be read based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, a technology such as facial expression recognition or voice analysis is used to estimate the user's emotion, but the present invention is not limited to such an example. For example, when the user is stressed, the reception unit postpones the code of low importance. In addition, when the user is relaxed, the reception unit can also preferentially read the code of high importance. Furthermore, when the user is in a hurry, the reception unit can also read the most important code first. In this way, the priority order of the two-dimensional code is determined according to the user's emotion, thereby reducing the user's stress. 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 the present invention is not limited to such an example.

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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] For example, the reception unit can read a two-dimensional code using the camera 42 of the robot 414. For example, the entry unit can enter a medical questionnaire by voice input using the microphone 238 of the robot 414. For example, the acquisition unit can take a lamp image using the camera 42 of the robot 414. For example, the presentation unit can acquire a fault response or a countermeasure method by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and present it by voice using the speaker 240 of the robot 414. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.
[0159] 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.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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).
[0163] 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.
[0164] 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."
[0165] 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.
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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.
[0168] 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.
[0169] 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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.
