Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) The generative AI system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that, when it receives music, removes the vocals and any instrumental sounds, such as guitar, piano, or drums, from the music and creates a band sound source for practice. This allows a user who is practicing an instrument alone to feel as if they are practicing with a band.
[0029] A generation AI system according to an embodiment includes a music loading unit, an instrument sound removal unit, and a band sound source generation unit. The music loading unit loads a music file. For example, it receives an MP3 or WAV format music file as input and separates the sounds of each instrument. The instrument sound removal unit removes any instrument sounds from the music file loaded by the music loading unit. For example, if a user instructs the generation AI to "remove the guitar sound," the generation AI detects the guitar sound and removes it. The instrument sound removal unit also outputs a sound source from which the drum sound has been removed, allowing the user to practice drums. The band sound source generation unit generates a practice band sound source from which the instrument sounds have been removed by the instrument sound removal unit. For example, the generation AI outputs the sound source from which the instrument sounds have been removed as a practice band sound source. This allows the generation AI system according to an embodiment to remove the instrument sounds specified by the user and generate a practice band sound source.
[0030] The music import unit can analyze not only the sounds of musical instruments, but also the characteristics of environmental sounds and live recordings. For example, when the generation AI loads a music file, the music import unit analyzes not only the sounds of musical instruments, but also the characteristics of environmental sounds and live recordings. For example, it analyzes the cheers of the audience and the reverberation of the venue that occur during live recordings, and generates a realistic sound source that includes these. This allows for the generation of a more realistic sound source.
[0031] The music reading unit can automatically generate musical score information when analyzing a music file, allowing the user to visually understand the structure of the music. For example, the music reading unit uses a generation AI to analyze a music file and automatically generate musical score information. For example, the unit analyzes notes and rhythm patterns and visually displays them, making it easier for the user to understand the structure of the music. This allows the user to visually understand the structure of the music.
[0032] The instrument sound removal unit can save the removed instrument sound as a separate track so that it can be reused later. For example, when the generation AI removes an instrument sound, the instrument sound removal unit saves the removed instrument sound as a separate track. For example, if a guitar sound is removed, the guitar sound is saved on a separate track so that it can be reused later. This allows the removed instrument sound to be reused later.
[0033] The instrument sound removal unit can customize the timbre of an instrument specified by the user. For example, when the generation AI removes instrument sounds, the instrument sound removal unit adds a function that allows the user to customize the timbre of an instrument specified by the user. For example, the unit allows the user to freely set the timbre of a guitar. This allows the user to customize the timbre of an instrument specified by the user.
[0034] The band sound source generation unit can adjust the difficulty level to match the user's playing skill. For example, when the generation AI creates a practice band sound source, the band sound source generation unit adjusts the difficulty level to match the user's playing skill. For example, the tempo can be slowed down for beginners, or complex parts can be simplified. This makes it possible to provide a practice band sound source that matches the user's playing skill.
[0035] The band sound source generation unit can provide real-time feedback on the user's performance and point out areas for improvement. For example, when the generation AI creates a band sound source for practice, the band sound source generation unit adds a function to provide real-time feedback on the user's performance. For example, it can point out discrepancies in timing or pitch and suggest areas for improvement. This allows the unit to provide real-time feedback on the user's performance and point out areas for improvement.
[0036] The digital amp + effects function can automatically adjust effect settings to suit the user's playing style. For example, when the generation AI provides the digital amp + effects function, it automatically adjusts effect settings to suit the user's playing style. For example, for rock style playing, it might set a stronger distortion. This allows the effect settings to be automatically adjusted to suit the user's playing style.
[0037] The digital amp + effector function can learn the user's past setting history and suggest optimal settings. For example, when the generation AI provides the digital amp + effector function, it learns the user's past setting history and suggests optimal effect settings. For example, it may prioritize suggestions of effects that the user uses frequently. This allows it to learn the user's past setting history and suggest optimal settings.
[0038] The digital amp + effects function can be applied to different instruments and vocals, making it suitable for a wide range of musical genres. For example, when the generative AI provides the digital amp + effects function, it adds the ability to apply it to different instruments and vocals. For example, it can support not only guitars, but also bass and keyboards. This allows it to be applied to different instruments and vocals, making it suitable for a wide range of musical genres.
[0039] The digital amplifier + effector function allows you to share effector settings with other users and collaborate on sound creation. For example, when the generation AI provides the digital amplifier + effector function, the digital amplifier + effector function adds a function to share effector settings with other users. For example, you can save the settings on the cloud and collaborate on sound creation with other users. This allows you to share effector settings with other users and collaborate on sound creation.

[0078] Step 1: The music reader reads the music file, e.g., MP3 or WAV format, and separates the sounds of each instrument. Step 2: The instrument sound removal unit removes any instrument sounds from the music file loaded by the music loading unit. For example, if the user instructs the AI to "remove the guitar sound," the AI will detect the guitar sound and remove it. The AI can also output a sound source with the drum sounds removed, allowing the user to practice drumming. Step 3: The band sound source generator generates the sound source from which the instrument sounds have been removed by the instrument sound removal unit as a band sound source for practice. For example, the generation AI outputs the sound source from which any instrument sounds have been removed as a band sound source for practice.

[0128] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.
[0129] FIG. 9 illustrates 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. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and behaviors arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion encompasses both emotions and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[0130] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction on emotion map 400, and typically 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.
[0131] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on in the mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further you go outside emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[0132] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on speech emotion recognition and brain physiological signal analysis systems for emotions, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "reaction," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.
[0133] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is a negative emotion on the situation side, around the middle of "repentance" or "reflection." In other words, this occurs 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 a positive emotion on the response side, around "desire." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0134] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple pieces of training data that are combinations of 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, "relieved," "calm," and "reassuring," have similar emotion values.
[0135] 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.
[0136] 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 USB (Universal Serial Bus) 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.
[0137] Alternatively, 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 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.
[0138] 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.
[0139] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following processors: A CPU is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. A dedicated electrical circuit, such as a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), a programmable logic device (PLD), or an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), is a processor with a circuit configuration specifically designed to execute a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and uses the memory to execute the specific process.
[0140] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with 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.
[0141] As an example of a system configured with a single 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 system that uses a processor that realizes the functions of an 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.
[0142] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[0143] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments have been described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are merely examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. In the above example, the first and second embodiments have been described separately, but they may be combined.
[0144] The above-described description and illustrations are a detailed explanation 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, functions, actions, and effects is an explanation of an example of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects 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 replacements may be made to the above-described description and illustrations within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the above-described description and illustrations omit explanations of common technical knowledge that do not require particular explanation to enable the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
