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 hotel-specific smart building. This smart building is a system that grasps the requests and schedules of customers, and grasps the congestion situation and the number of times of use by sensors installed at each location. For example, a customer inputs information such as "going out at XX o'clock," "want dinner around XX o'clock," "reservation for hot spring," and "whether or not cleaning is desired." This information is accepted by the reception unit. Next, the customer information accepted by the reception unit is managed by the information management unit. The information management unit centrally manages the requests and schedules of customers and provides necessary information to other departments. Furthermore, based on the customer information managed by the information management unit, the determination unit determines the timing and route of cleaning for the hotel. For example, a schedule is created so that cleaning is performed according to the timing when customers go out. In addition, the optimal route is determined so that the cleaning staff can move efficiently. Based on the result of the determination by the determination unit, the cleaning arrangement unit arranges cleaning. The cleaning arrangement unit issues specific instructions to the cleaning staff to smoothly proceed with the cleaning work. In addition, the reception unit also accepts sensor information output from sensor devices installed at each location in the hotel. The sensor information indicates the congestion situation and the number of times of use, and is managed by the information management unit. The determination unit further optimizes the cleaning timing and route based on the customer information and sensor information. Furthermore, the reservation arrangement unit makes reservations for facilities within the hotel based on the customer information and sensor information. For example, reservations for hot springs and restaurants can be automatically arranged. This mechanism makes it possible to arrange cleaning and make facility reservations according to customer needs, making hotel operations more efficient. It also improves customer satisfaction. As a result, the smart building system can optimize the cleaning timing and route based on customer requests and schedules, enabling efficient cleaning arrangements.

[0029] The smart building system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, an information management unit, a determination unit, and a cleaning arrangement unit. The reception unit receives customer information indicating the customer's requests and schedule. The customer information includes, for example, a name, contact information, requests, schedule, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit can input information such as, for example, a customer's "going out at XX o'clock", "want dinner around XX o'clock", "reservation for hot spring", and "whether or not cleaning is requested". The information management unit manages the customer information received by the reception unit. The information management unit centrally manages the customer's requests and schedules and provides necessary information to other departments. For example, the information management unit stores the customer's requests and schedules in a database so that other departments can access them. The determination unit determines the timing and route of cleaning the hotel based on the customer information managed by the information management unit. For example, the determination unit creates a schedule so that cleaning is performed according to the timing when the customer goes out. In addition, the determination unit determines the optimal route so that the cleaning staff can move efficiently. For example, the determination unit optimizes the movement of the cleaning staff by taking into account the customer's schedule and the arrangement of rooms in the hotel. The cleaning arrangement unit arranges cleaning based on the determination result by the determination unit. The cleaning arrangement unit issues specific instructions to the cleaning staff to smoothly proceed with the cleaning work. For example, the cleaning arrangement unit instructs the cleaning staff as to which rooms to clean and when. In this way, the smart building system according to the embodiment can optimize the timing and route of cleaning based on the customer's requests and schedule, enabling efficient cleaning arrangements.

[0030] The reception unit accepts customer information indicating the customer's requests and schedule. The customer information includes, but is not limited to, for example, a name, contact information, requests, schedule, and the like. The reception unit allows the customer to input information such as "going out at XX o'clock," "wanting dinner around XX o'clock," "reserving a hot spring," and "whether or not cleaning is required." Specifically, the reception unit accepts customer information through an interface such as a tablet terminal, a smartphone app, or a web portal. This allows the customer to easily input their schedule and requests. Furthermore, the reception unit allows the customer to convey requests by voice using voice recognition technology. For example, when a customer gives a voice instruction such as "I want my room cleaned at 10 a.m. tomorrow," the content is automatically converted into text and registered in the system. The reception unit also has a function of learning the customer's past usage history and preferences and automatically making suggestions the next time the customer uses the service. For example, for a customer who has frequently made hot spring reservations in the past, the option of hot spring reservations is automatically presented at the next check-in. This allows the reception unit to improve the convenience of the customer and increase customer satisfaction.

[0031] The information management department manages the customer information received by the reception department. The information management department centrally manages customer requests and schedules and provides necessary information to other departments. Specifically, the information management department stores customer information in a database and ensures that it is updated in real time. The database is secured and uses encryption technology to prevent leakage of customer information. The information management department also analyzes customer information and understands trends and patterns to help manage the hotel. For example, if there is a tendency for cleaning requests to be concentrated during a specific time period, measures such as increasing the number of cleaning staff during that time period can be taken. Furthermore, the information management department shares data through APIs to strengthen cooperation with other departments. This allows the cleaning arrangement department and decision department to quickly access the information they need. For example, the cleaning arrangement department can check the latest schedule of the customer and adjust the timing of cleaning. This allows the information management department to centrally manage customer information and efficiently share information, thereby improving the operational efficiency of the entire hotel.

[0032] The determination unit determines the timing and route of cleaning in the hotel based on the customer information managed by the information management unit. For example, the determination unit creates a schedule to perform cleaning according to the timing when the customer goes out. In addition, the determination unit determines the optimal route so that the cleaning staff can move efficiently. Specifically, the determination unit uses AI to analyze the customer's schedule and the layout of the rooms in the hotel and calculates the optimal cleaning route. The AI ​​simulates the movement of the cleaning staff based on past data and the current situation and proposes the most efficient route. For example, the AI ​​optimizes the route so that the cleaning staff can move efficiently, taking into account the time of day when the customer goes out and the relative positions of the rooms. In addition, the determination unit also takes into account the schedule and working hours of the cleaning staff and makes adjustments to prevent overwork. As a result, the determination unit can provide a flexible cleaning schedule according to the customer's requests and balance the efficiency and ease of work of the cleaning staff.

[0033] The cleaning arrangement department arranges cleaning based on the result of the decision by the decision department. The cleaning arrangement department issues specific instructions to the cleaning staff to smoothly proceed with the cleaning work. Specifically, the cleaning arrangement department instructs the cleaning staff which rooms to clean and when. The instructions are given in real time through a smartphone or tablet terminal, so that the cleaning staff can always keep up to date with the latest information. In addition, the cleaning arrangement department monitors the progress of the cleaning staff and provides support as needed. For example, if cleaning is delayed or additional cleaning is required, the cleaning arrangement department responds promptly and issues additional instructions to the cleaning staff. In addition, the cleaning arrangement department performs regular checks and feedback to ensure the quality of cleaning. For example, it randomly checks rooms that have been cleaned to confirm that the quality meets the standards. In addition, it collects feedback from customers and provides feedback to the cleaning staff to continuously improve the quality of cleaning. In this way, the cleaning arrangement department can achieve efficient and high-quality cleaning work and increase customer satisfaction.

[0034] The determination unit can determine the placement of cleaning staff in the hotel based on the customer information managed by the information management unit. The determination unit optimizes the placement of cleaning staff based on, for example, the customer's requests and schedules. For example, the determination unit places cleaning staff according to the timing when the customer goes out. The determination unit can also determine the optimal placement taking into consideration the skills of the cleaning staff and the difficulty of cleaning the room. For example, the determination unit assigns the cleaning staff to rooms with high difficulty levels according to their skills. The determination unit can also determine an efficient placement taking into consideration the working hours of the cleaning staff. For example, the determination unit adjusts the timing of cleaning according to the working hours of the cleaning staff. This optimizes the placement of cleaning staff based on customer information, enabling efficient cleaning work. Part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the determination unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the determination unit can determine the placement of cleaning staff using an AI model that inputs customer information and outputs the placement of cleaning staff.

[0035] The reception unit can receive sensor information output from a sensor device installed at each location in the hotel. The sensor information includes, for example, temperature, humidity, motion detection, and sound, but is not limited to such examples. The reception unit receives, for example, sensor information output from a sensor device installed at each location in the hotel. The information management unit manages the sensor information received by the reception unit. The information management unit stores the sensor information in a database so that other departments can access it. The determination unit determines the timing and route of cleaning the hotel based on the customer information and the sensor information. The determination unit optimizes the timing and route of cleaning, for example, based on the sensor information, taking into account the congestion situation and the number of times of use. For example, the determination unit creates a schedule to avoid crowded places and perform cleaning. The determination unit can also determine a route to give priority to cleaning places that are frequently used. This makes it possible to further optimize the timing and route of cleaning by utilizing the sensor information, and to make efficient cleaning arrangements. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the determination unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the determination unit can determine the timing and route of cleaning using an AI model that inputs sensor information and outputs the timing and route of cleaning.

[0036] The reservation arrangement unit can make reservations for facilities in the hotel based on customer information and sensor information. The reservation arrangement unit automatically arranges reservations for hot springs and restaurants based on customer information and sensor information, for example. For example, the reservation arrangement unit can input information such as "I would like to have dinner around XX o'clock" and "Hot spring reservation". The reservation arrangement unit makes reservations for the most suitable facility according to the customer's request. For example, the reservation arrangement unit makes reservations for hot springs and restaurants according to the customer's schedule. The reservation arrangement unit can also make reservations for the most suitable facility based on the sensor information, taking into account the congestion situation and number of times of use. For example, the reservation arrangement unit makes reservations by avoiding busy time periods. The reservation arrangement unit can also give priority to reservations for facilities that are used frequently. This makes it possible to automatically arrange reservations for facilities using customer information and sensor information, and provide services according to the needs of customers. Part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reservation arrangement unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reservation arrangement unit can make reservations for facilities using an AI model that inputs customer information and sensor information and outputs reservations for the facilities.

[0037] The sensor device can output the congestion status and number of uses of the place where it is installed. For example, the sensor device outputs the number of people, the duration of stay, the congestion level of the flow line, etc., in order to evaluate the congestion status. The sensor device can also output the number of triggers of the sensor and the records of check-in and check-out in order to count the number of uses. For example, the sensor device is installed at each location in a hotel and outputs the congestion status and the number of uses in real time. As a result, the sensor device outputs the congestion status and the number of uses, making it easier to grasp the usage status of the facility. Part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the sensor device may be performed, for example, using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the sensor device can output the congestion status and the number of uses using an AI model that inputs the congestion status and the number of uses and outputs the congestion level and the frequency of use.

[0038] The reception unit can receive customer information by an AI installed in the guest room of the customer. The reception unit, for example, receives customer information using an AI installed in the guest room of the customer. The AI ​​includes, for example, a voice recognition AI, a natural language processing AI, an image recognition AI, and the like, but is not limited to such examples. For example, the reception unit can allow the customer to input information such as "going out at XX o'clock", "want dinner around XX o'clock", "make a reservation for a hot spring", and "whether or not cleaning is desired" to the AI ​​in the guest room. The AI ​​recognizes the customer's requests and schedule, and provides the information to the reception unit. As a result, the convenience of the customer is improved by receiving customer information using the AI ​​installed in the guest room. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed, for example, using an AI, or may be performed without using an AI. For example, the reception unit can receive customer information using an AI model that manages customer information, with customer information acquired from the AI ​​in the guest room as input.

[0039] The reception unit can analyze the customer's past request history and select the optimal reception method. For example, the reception unit automatically displays requests that the customer frequently input in the past as candidates. The reception unit can also preferentially suggest reception methods (such as voice and text) that the customer has used in the past. Furthermore, the reception unit can predict and suggest requests to be used in a specific time period from the customer's past request history. This improves customer convenience by selecting the optimal reception method using the customer's past request history.

[0120] The reservation arrangement unit can estimate the customer's emotions and adjust the reservation arrangement method based on the estimated customer's emotions. For example, if the customer is stressed, a simple interface is provided to minimize the reservation procedure. In addition, if the customer is relaxed, the reservation arrangement unit can provide detailed reservation options and propose customizable reservation arrangements. Furthermore, if the customer is in a hurry, the reservation arrangement unit can prioritize voice input and quickly arrange reservations. This allows for more appropriate reservation arrangements by adjusting the reservation arrangement method according to the customer's emotions. The estimation of emotions is realized using an emotion estimation function using, for example, an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI is, for example, a text generation AI (for example, LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to such examples. A part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reservation arrangement unit may be performed using, for example, an AI, or may be performed without using an AI. For example, the reservation arrangement unit can input customer emotion data into the generation AI and adjust the reservation arrangement method.

[0121] The reception unit can perform filtering based on the customer's current stay status and areas of interest when receiving a request. For example, if the customer is currently staying in a hotel, the reception unit preferentially displays services available during the customer's stay. The reception unit can also suggest related services and activities based on the customer's areas of interest. Furthermore, the reception unit can filter and display available time slots and locations according to the customer's stay status.

For example, the reception unit can perform filtering using an AI model that inputs the customer's stay status and areas of interest and outputs the filtering results.

[0122] The information management unit can select the optimal management method by referring to the customer's past behavior history when managing information. For example, the information management unit preferentially displays services that the customer has frequently used in the past. The information management unit can also predict and suggest services to be used in a specific time period from the customer's past behavior history. Furthermore, the information management unit can analyze the customer's past behavior patterns and select the optimal information display method. As a result, more appropriate information management is possible by managing information by referring to the customer's past behavior history.

For example, the information management unit can manage information using an AI model that inputs the customer's past behavior history and outputs the optimal management method.

[0123] When determining the timing and route of cleaning, the determination unit can select the optimal determination method by referring to the customer's past behavior history. For example, the determination unit can suggest the optimal timing based on the cleaning timing used by the customer in the past. The determination unit can also suggest a cleaning route that avoids congestion from the customer's past behavior history. Furthermore, the determination unit can analyze the customer's past behavior history and suggest the most efficient cleaning route. As a result, more efficient cleaning is possible by determining the timing and route of cleaning by referring to the customer's past behavior history. Part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the determination unit may be performed, for example, using AI or may be performed without using AI. For example, the determination unit can determine the timing and route of cleaning using an AI model that inputs the customer's past behavior history and outputs the timing and route of cleaning.

[0124] The cleaning arrangement unit can adjust the arrangement method based on the customer's current stay status when arranging cleaning. For example, if the customer is staying in the hotel, it arranges not to clean during the customer's stay. The cleaning arrangement unit can also select the optimal cleaning arrangement method according to the customer's stay status. Furthermore, the cleaning arrangement unit can also optimize the movement of the cleaning staff based on the customer's stay status. This makes it possible to make more appropriate cleaning arrangements by making cleaning arrangements based on the customer's stay status. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the cleaning arrangement unit may be performed, for example, using AI or may be performed without using AI. For example, the cleaning arrangement unit can make cleaning arrangements using an AI model that inputs the customer's stay status and outputs the arrangement method.

[0125] The reservation arrangement unit can select the optimal arrangement method in consideration of the geographical location information of the customer when making a reservation. For example, when the customer is in a specific area in the hotel, the reservation arrangement unit can preferentially reserve facilities available in that area. In addition, when the customer is outside the hotel, the reservation arrangement unit can also preferentially provide information on nearby tourist attractions and restaurants. Furthermore, the reservation arrangement unit can select the optimal reservation arrangement method based on the customer's location information. This allows for more efficient reservation arrangement by making reservation arrangements in consideration of the customer's geographical location information. Part or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reservation arrangement unit may be performed, for example, using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reservation arrangement unit can make reservation arrangements using an AI model that inputs the customer's geographical location information and outputs the optimal arrangement method.

[0126] The process flow of the second embodiment will be briefly described below.

[0127] Step 1: The reception department accepts customer information indicating the customer's requests and schedule. Customer information includes name, contact information, requests, schedule, etc. For example, a customer can enter information such as "going out at x o'clock," "preferring dinner around x o'clock," "reserving a hot spring bath," and "whether or not cleaning is required." Step 2: The information management department manages the customer information received by the reception department. The information management department centrally manages customer requests and schedules and provides necessary information to other departments. For example, the information management department stores customer requests and schedules in a database so that other departments can access them. Step 3: The decision unit determines the timing and route for cleaning the hotel based on the customer information managed by the information management unit. For example, the decision unit creates a schedule to match cleaning with when customers will be leaving the hotel. It also determines the optimal route for cleaning staff to move efficiently. The movement of cleaning staff is optimized taking into account customer schedules and the layout of rooms in the hotel. Step 4: The cleaning arrangement unit arranges cleaning based on the result of the decision made by the decision unit. The cleaning arrangement unit issues specific instructions to the cleaning staff to ensure smooth cleaning work. For example, the cleaning staff is instructed on which rooms to clean and when to clean them.

The communication I / Fs 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 via the network 54. The exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 using the communication I / Fs 44 and 26 is performed in a secure state.

[0171] The control object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors for driving the arms, hands, and legs. The posture and behavior of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and legs. Some of the emotions of the robot 414 can be expressed by controlling these motors. In addition, the facial expressions of the robot 414 can also be expressed by controlling the light emission state of the LEDs in the eyes of the robot 414.

[0172] Fig. 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Fig. 8, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific process program 56 is stored in the storage 32.

[0173] The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32, and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0174] 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.

[0175] 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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.

[0178] 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] For example, the reception unit receives customer information via the microphone 238 of the robot 414 and the communication I / F 26 of the data processing device 12. The information management unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and manages customer information in a centralized manner and provides necessary information to other departments. The determination unit is realized by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and determines the timing and route of cleaning based on the customer information. The cleaning arrangement unit is realized by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and issues specific instructions to cleaning staff. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and various changes are possible.

[0181] 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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.

[0184] 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).

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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."

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.

[0191] 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.

[0192] 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.

[0193] 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.

[0194] 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.

[0195] 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.

[0196] 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.

[0197] The above description and illustrations are detailed descriptions of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, and are merely an example of the technology of the present disclosure. For example, the above description of the configuration, function, action, and effect is an example of the configuration, function, action, and effect of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replaced with respect to the description and illustrations shown above, within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. In addition, in order to avoid confusion and to facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the description and illustrations shown above omit explanations of technical common sense that do not require particular explanation in enabling the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
