[0202] When a user logs in, the device displays an image, hashtags, and text input field. The user then enters their desired image, hashtag, or text. The server analyzes this input data and interprets it in combination with the user's profile information. The analysis uses natural language processing technology, particularly the ChatGPT API, a generative AI model, to make abstract images concrete.
[0203] 3. Selection of recommended items
[0204] Based on the analysis results, the server selects fashion items that suit the user. Specifically, it also generates personalized reasons for the recommendation. The device then displays a recommendation list to the user. The recommendation list includes the selected items, such as a pastel pink blouse, white denim, and a camera bag.
[0205] 4. Visual display using smart glasses
[0206] The recommended fashion items are displayed visually to the user using the smart glasses, allowing the user to view product details and facilitate purchasing decisions.
[0207] Specific examples
[0208] Example 1: Recommendation function
[0209] A user enters "casual" and "likes pastel colors" in their profile. They then enter "a perfect outfit for a spring picnic" in the text field and add the hashtag "spring casual." The server analyzes this input data and retrieves suitable items via the ChatGPT API of the generative AI model. As a result, "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" are displayed in the recommendation list.
[0210] Example 2: Boost function
[0211] The user selects a "pastel pink blouse" from the recommendations presented. The server generates a reason for recommending this item, explaining that "this pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for spring casual occasions." Furthermore, other items that go well with the blouse, such as "white denim" and "light blue sneakers," are also suggested. The user can visually check these coordination suggestions through the smart glasses, receiving support for overall styling.

[0320] Example 2
[0321] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0322] Conventional online fashion recommendation systems do not fully consider users' subjective preferences and emotions when making recommendations, making it difficult to provide products that truly satisfy users. Furthermore, conventional systems cannot respond to changes in users' emotions, and therefore do not sufficiently motivate users to purchase additional products that they are temporarily interested in.
[0323] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for collecting user information; means for inputting a user's favorite images, hashtags, and text; means for analyzing the user information and the images, hashtags, and text; means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items based on the analysis results; means for generating specific recommendation reasons for the recommended fashion items; means for suggesting other items and cosmetics that are easily combined with the fashion items; means for displaying the recommended fashion items and the suggested other items and cosmetics to the user; means for analyzing the user's input information and behavior and recognizing emotions; means for dynamically adjusting the recommendation content based on the recognized user emotions; and means for analyzing the user's reaction to the recommended items in real time and dynamically adjusting the recommendation reasons in accordance with the analysis results. This enables personalized recommendations of fashion items based on the user's preferences and emotions, and dynamic adjustment of recommendations in accordance with the user's emotions.
[0324] "Means for collecting user information" refers to the interface and data collection process for collecting information such as the user's preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends.

[0333] "Means for analyzing user reactions to the recommended item in real time and dynamically adjusting the reason for recommendation based on the analysis results" refers to a system that collects and analyzes user reaction data in real time and dynamically changes the reason for recommendation based on the results.
[0334] A "generative AI model" is an artificial intelligence model that generates natural language and recognizes data patterns based on user information and behavioral data.
[0335] A "prompt" is an instruction or question that is input to a generative AI model to output recommendations.
[0336] System Overview
[0337] This invention is a system that recommends personalized fashion items based on a user's preferences and emotional state. The system is realized by combining four main functions: user information collection, recommendation function, boost function, and emotion engine.
[0338] Hardware and software used
[0339] Server: Used to analyze data and select recommended items. The main software includes Python natural language processing libraries (NLTK and spaCy), sentiment analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER), and generative AI models (ChatGPT API).
[0340] Device: This serves as the interface where users can input information and view recommended items and descriptions. This is typically a web browser or a mobile app.
[0341] Database: Used to store user information. Popular databases include AWS RDS (Relational Database Service) and MySQL.
[0342] Processing Details
[0343] 1. Collection of User Information
[0344] When a user logs in to an e-commerce site, the device displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page. The user enters information such as their preferred fashion style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends. This information is sent to the server and stored in a database such as AWS RDS or MySQL.
[0345] 2. Recommendation function
[0346] The device displays an image, hashtags, and a text input field to the user. The user uploads an image of their choice and enters text and hashtags. The server analyzes the received data using Python's natural language processing library (NLTK or spaCy) and generates a prompt for the ChatGPT API based on the analysis results. Based on the response from the ChatGPT API, the server selects appropriate fashion items and displays them on the device.
[0347] 3. Boost function
[0348] When a user selects a product from the recommendation list, the server generates specific reasons for recommending that product. For example, a reason might be provided such as, "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly." Other related items (such as "white denim" or "light blue sneakers") are also suggested. This information is displayed on the device, allowing the user to visually understand the recommendation.
[0349] 4. Utilizing the Emotion Engine
[0350] The server analyzes the user's input information and behavior using emotion analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER) to recognize the user's emotions. If the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server dynamically adjusts the emphasis of the recommended items. For example, it adds information about limited-time sales or special offers. The user's reactions are analyzed in real time, and if the user shows anxiety, for example, it changes the reason statement to emphasize positive feedback.
[0351] Specific examples
[0352] Combining recommendation functionality with an emotion engine
[0353] A user enters "casual" and "I like pastel colors" in their profile. They then write "A perfect outfit for a spring picnic" in the text field and add the hashtag "spring casual." The server analyzes the input data and selects "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" as recommendations, which are displayed on the device. The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time, and if the user is interested in a recommended item but has concerns, it dynamically adjusts the reason for the recommendation to something like, "This pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for spring casual occasions."
[0354] Prompt Sentence Examples
[0355] "Suggest a casual outfit perfect for a spring picnic. Your user likes pastel pink and prefers casual styles."

[0438] (Application example 2)
[0439] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0440] While conventional fashion recommendation systems suggest personalized items to users when shopping online, they do not address the in-store shopping experience. Furthermore, they do not provide recommendations that take into account the user's real-time movements and emotions, which prevents them from fully enhancing user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need for a system that effectively utilizes devices such as eye-tracking technology, smart glasses, and head-mounted displays to enable users to obtain the information they want in-store in real time.
[0441] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[0442] In this invention, the server includes an eye tracking unit that identifies a specific product when the user moves around the store and directs their gaze at the product, a unit that dynamically adjusts recommendations for the identified product according to the user's emotional state, and a unit that displays the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on smart glasses or a head-mounted display, thereby improving the shopping experience in a physical store and making it possible to provide appropriate information and recommendations in real time for products that interest the user.
[0443] "Means for collecting user information" refers to a function for inputting and recording user preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, the latest trends, and the like.
[0444] The "means for users to input their favorite images, hashtags, and text" refers to an interface that allows users to input images, hashtags, text, etc. that specifically indicate their own fashion style and preferences.
[0445] "Means for analyzing user information and the images, hashtags, and text" refers to a function for analyzing collected user information and input images, hashtags, and text to understand user preferences and trends.
[0446] "Means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items" refers to a system that selects and suggests the most suitable fashion items for users based on the analysis results.
[0447] The "means for generating specific reasons for recommendation" is a function for automatically generating detailed explanations and reasons why recommended fashion items are preferred.
[0448] The "means for suggesting other items and cosmetics" is a function for automatically suggesting other fashion items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the recommended fashion items.
[0449] The "means for displaying to the user" is an interface for visually presenting information about the recommended fashion items and other suggested items and cosmetics to the user.
[0450] The "eye tracking means" is a technology for identifying and tracking a particular product when the user directs their gaze at the product.
[0451] "Dynamic adjustment means" is a function that allows recommendations to be changed and adjusted in real time according to the user's emotions and behavior.
[0452] "Means for displaying on smart glasses or a head-mounted display" refers to a function for displaying the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on a smart device in real time.
[0453] Specific configurations and methods for implementing the present invention are described below.
[0454] 1. Collection of User Information
[0455] The terminal uses smart glasses and mobile devices to collect user information. Users use these devices to input their preferred style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trend information. This information is sent to a server and stored in a database.
[0456] 2. Eye tracking and product identification
[0457] The smart glasses use built-in eye-tracking technology (e.g., Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) to identify the products the user is looking at in the store, recognize the products the user is looking at, and send the related information to a server.
[0458] 3. Recommendation Generation and Sentiment Analysis
[0459] The server generates personalized recommendations based on the aforementioned user information and eye-tracking information. This includes suggesting fashion items based on the user's input and profile using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI API). It also uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state from their facial expressions and behavior and dynamically adjust the recommendations.
[0460] 4. Displaying recommendation reasons and dynamic adjustment
[0461] The device displays the recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time on smart glasses or a head-mounted display. Based on the results of the sentiment analysis engine, the device adjusts the recommendation reasons and the display of recommended items. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, it will emphasize positive feedback.
[0462] Specific examples
[0463] For example, if a user wears smart glasses and enters a store and looks at a particular product, fashion items related to that product will be automatically recommended. The recommendation will be displayed on the visual device along with the reason for the recommendation generated by the server based on the user's information. This allows users to enjoy shopping while receiving detailed information and personalized recommendations.
[0464] Prompt Sentence Examples
[0465] An example of a prompt generated by the server is:

[0495] Input: Identified product information, user profile information, prompt information
[0496] Output: Specific reasons for recommendation
[0497] Step 5:
[0498] The server uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state based on their facial expressions and behavior. Based on the user's emotions, the recommendation content is dynamically adjusted. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the server emphasizes positive feedback.
[0499] Input: gaze data, facial expression data, behavior data
[0500] Output: Adjusted recommendation content
[0501] Step 6:
[0502] The device (smart glasses or head-mounted display) displays the generated recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time. The user can consider products based on this information and obtain additional information as needed.
[0503] Input: Adjusted recommendation content, specific reasons for recommendation
[0504] Output: Present information to the user
[0505] Step 7:
[0506] The user selects recommended fashion items or other suggested items through their device. Detailed information about the selected item and related items are displayed. The device then sends the information back to the server, which generates additional recommendations as needed.
[0507] Input: User selection information
[0508] Output: Show detailed information and related items
[0509] Through these steps, users can enjoy a personalized shopping experience in a physical store.

[0737] Input: Data ready to be displayed
[0738] Output: Visual product display via smart glasses
[0739] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.
[0740] Natural language description of the program
[0741] The system is programmed using the following process:
[0742] 1. Collection of User Information
[0743] A session begins when a user logs in to an EC site.
[0744] The device displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page to the user, and the user enters information such as their preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends.
[0745] The server stores this information in a database.
[0746] 2. Recommendation function
[0747] The device displays an image, hashtag, and text input field to the user, and the user can enter their favorite image, hashtag, or text.
[0748] The server analyzes these inputs, which involves applying natural language processing based on the user's profile information and sending requests to the ChatGPT API to turn the abstract image into a concrete image.
[0749] Based on the analysis results, the server selects fashion items suitable for the user.
[0750] The device displays a list of recommendations to the user, including a selection of items such as a pastel pink blouse, white denim, and a camera bag.
[0751] 3. Boost function
[0752] The user selects the product of interest from the recommendation list.
[0753] The server generates specific reasons for recommending selected products, such as "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly and goes well with a casual spring look."
[0754] The server will suggest other items or cosmetics that go well with the product (such as "white denim" or "light blue sneakers").
[0755] The device displays this information to the user, making it visually convincing.
[0756] 4. Utilizing the Emotion Engine
[0757] The server analyzes the user's input information and selection behavior, and recognizes the user's emotions using an emotion engine.
[0758] The server dynamically adjusts the recommendation content based on the user's emotions. For example, if the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server may change the emphasis on the recommended item or suggest additional similar products.
[0759] The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time and adjusts the reason for the recommendation accordingly. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the reason will be changed to emphasize positive feedback.
[0760] Specific examples
[0761] Example 1: Combining recommendation features with an emotion engine
[0762] A user enters "casual" and "likes pastel colors" in their profile.
[0763] A user writes "Perfect outfit for a spring picnic" in the text field and adds the hashtag "spring casual."
[0764] The server analyzes the input data and retrieves the appropriate items via the ChatGPT API.
[0765] The server selects "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" as recommendations and displays them on the device.
[0766] The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time and recognizes that the user is interested in the recommended item but is also feeling anxious.
[0767] The server adjusts the recommendation statement to read, "This pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for casual spring occasions. Many users also rate this item highly."
[0768] Example 2: Combining boosting and emotion engines
[0769] The user selects "Pastel Pink Blouse" from the presented recommendation list.
[0770] The server generates reasons for recommending this item, explaining, for example, "This pastel pink is a perfect match for your personal color and also goes well with a casual spring vibe."
[0771] The server will also suggest items that go well with the blouse, such as white denim and light blue sneakers.
[0772] The server analyzes user responses and checks to see which ones are more positive.
[0773] The server displays the original reasons for the recommendation and adds suggestions to encourage additional purchases (e.g., "This outfit is eligible for a 30% off campaign!").
[0774] The device displays this information to the user and supports overall styling.
[0775] As a result, the present invention not only provides users with personalized fashion suggestions and a sense of security when shopping online, but also uses an emotion engine to achieve even more accurate recommendations and support.
[0776] The processing flow will be explained below.
[0777] Step 1:
[0778] A user logs in to an e-commerce site and a session begins.
[0779] Step 2:
[0780] The terminal displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page to the user, and the user enters their preferences, body type information, personal color, past purchase history, the latest trend information, etc.
[0781] Step 3:
[0782] The server receives the user's input and stores it in a database.
[0783] Step 4:
[0784] The device displays an image, hashtag, and text input field to the user, and the user can enter their favorite image, hashtag, or text.
[0785] Step 5:
[0786] The server analyzes the user's input data, which involves applying natural language processing based on the user's profile information and sending a request to the ChatGPT API to materialize the abstract image.
[0787] Step 6:
[0788] The server analyzes the response from the ChatGPT API and selects the appropriate fashion items for the user.
[0789] Step 7:
[0790] The server generates a list of selected fashion items and stores it in a database.
[0791] Step 8:
[0792] The device displays the recommendation list to the user.
[0793] Step 9:
[0794] The user selects the product of interest from the recommendation list.
[0795] Step 10:
[0796] The server generates specific reasons for recommending selected products, such as "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly and goes well with a casual spring look."
[0797] Step 11:
[0798] The server will suggest other items (e.g., "white denim" or "light blue sneakers") and cosmetics that go well with the selected product.
[0799] Step 12:
[0800] The terminal displays this information to the user, allowing them to understand it visually.
[0801] Step 13:
[0802] The server analyzes the user's input information and selection behavior, and recognizes the user's emotions using an emotion engine.
[0803] Step 14:
[0804] The server dynamically adjusts the recommendation content based on the user's emotions. For example, if the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server may change the emphasis on the recommended item or suggest additional similar products.
[0805] Step 15:
[0806] The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time and adjusts the reason for the recommendation accordingly. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the reason will be changed to emphasize positive feedback.
[0807] Through the above steps, users can confidently choose fashion items that suit them, and by using the emotion engine, even more accurate recommendations and support can be achieved.
[0808] Example 2
[0809] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0810] Conventional online fashion recommendation systems do not fully consider users' subjective preferences and emotions when making recommendations, making it difficult to provide products that truly satisfy users. Furthermore, conventional systems cannot respond to changes in users' emotions, and therefore do not sufficiently motivate users to purchase additional products that they are temporarily interested in.
[0811] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for collecting user information; means for inputting a user's favorite images, hashtags, and text; means for analyzing the user information and the images, hashtags, and text; means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items based on the analysis results; means for generating specific recommendation reasons for the recommended fashion items; means for suggesting other items and cosmetics that are easily combined with the fashion items; means for displaying the recommended fashion items and the suggested other items and cosmetics to the user; means for analyzing the user's input information and behavior and recognizing emotions; means for dynamically adjusting the recommendation content based on the recognized user emotions; and means for analyzing the user's reaction to the recommended items in real time and dynamically adjusting the recommendation reasons in accordance with the analysis results. This enables personalized recommendations of fashion items based on the user's preferences and emotions, and dynamic adjustment of recommendations in accordance with the user's emotions.
[0812] "Means for collecting user information" refers to the interface and data collection process for collecting information such as the user's preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends.
[0813] A "means for users to input their favorite images, hashtags, and text" is an interface that provides forms or input fields for users to enter information about their preferences and style in visual or textual form.
[0814] The "means for analyzing the user information and the images, hashtags, and text" refers to a system that analyzes collected user information and input data using natural language processing and image analysis algorithms.
[0815] The "means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items based on analysis results" is a system that selects fashion items suitable for the user from the analysis results and provides recommendation information on them.
[0816] The "means for generating a specific reason for recommendation for the recommended fashion item" is a system that generates a specific reason for recommendation related to the selected fashion item and provides it to the user.
[0817] The "means for suggesting other items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the fashion item" is a system that suggests to the user other related items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the recommended fashion item.
[0818] The "means for displaying the recommended fashion items and other suggested items and cosmetics to the user" is an interface for visually displaying the selected fashion items and other suggested related items and cosmetics to the user.
[0819] The "means for analyzing the user's input information and behavior and recognizing emotions" is an emotion analysis system that analyzes the user's input data and behavior history and estimates the user's emotional state.
[0820] The "means for dynamically adjusting recommendation content based on recognized user emotions" is a system that adjusts recommendation content in real time based on analyzed emotional information.
[0821] "Means for analyzing user reactions to the recommended item in real time and dynamically adjusting the reason for recommendation based on the analysis results" refers to a system that collects and analyzes user reaction data in real time and dynamically changes the reason for recommendation based on the results.
[0822] A "generative AI model" is an artificial intelligence model that generates natural language and recognizes data patterns based on user information and behavioral data.
[0823] A "prompt" is an instruction or question that is input to a generative AI model to output recommendations.
[0824] System Overview
[0825] This invention is a system that recommends personalized fashion items based on a user's preferences and emotional state. The system is realized by combining four main functions: user information collection, recommendation function, boost function, and emotion engine.
[0826] Hardware and software used
[0827] Server: Used to analyze data and select recommended items. The main software includes Python natural language processing libraries (NLTK and spaCy), sentiment analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER), and generative AI models (ChatGPT API).
[0828] Device: This serves as the interface where users can input information and view recommended items and descriptions. This is typically a web browser or a mobile app.
[0829] Database: Used to store user information. Popular databases include AWS RDS (Relational Database Service) and MySQL.
[0830] Processing Details
[0831] 1. Collection of User Information
[0832] When a user logs in to an e-commerce site, the device displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page. The user enters information such as their preferred fashion style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends. This information is sent to the server and stored in a database such as AWS RDS or MySQL.
[0833] 2. Recommendation function
[0834] The device displays an image, hashtags, and a text input field to the user. The user uploads an image of their choice and enters text and hashtags. The server analyzes the received data using Python's natural language processing library (NLTK or spaCy) and generates a prompt for the ChatGPT API based on the analysis results. Based on the response from the ChatGPT API, the server selects appropriate fashion items and displays them on the device.
[0835] 3. Boost function
[0836] When a user selects a product from the recommendation list, the server generates specific reasons for recommending that product. For example, a reason might be provided such as, "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly." Other related items (such as "white denim" or "light blue sneakers") are also suggested. This information is displayed on the device, allowing the user to visually understand the recommendation.
[0837] 4. Utilizing the Emotion Engine
[0838] The server analyzes the user's input information and behavior using emotion analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER) to recognize the user's emotions. If the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server dynamically adjusts the emphasis of the recommended items. For example, it adds information about limited-time sales or special offers. The user's reactions are analyzed in real time, and if the user shows anxiety, for example, it changes the reason statement to emphasize positive feedback.
[0839] Specific examples
[0840] Combining recommendation functionality with an emotion engine
[0841] A user enters "casual" and "I like pastel colors" in their profile. They then write "A perfect outfit for a spring picnic" in the text field and add the hashtag "spring casual." The server analyzes the input data and selects "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" as recommendations, which are displayed on the device. The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time, and if the user is interested in a recommended item but has concerns, it dynamically adjusts the reason for the recommendation to something like, "This pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for spring casual occasions."
[0842] Prompt Sentence Examples
[0843] "Suggest a casual outfit perfect for a spring picnic. Your user likes pastel pink and prefers casual styles."

[0926] (Application example 2)
[0927] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[0928] While conventional fashion recommendation systems suggest personalized items to users when shopping online, they do not address the in-store shopping experience. Furthermore, they do not provide recommendations that take into account the user's real-time movements and emotions, which prevents them from fully enhancing user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need for a system that effectively utilizes devices such as eye-tracking technology, smart glasses, and head-mounted displays to enable users to obtain the information they want in-store in real time.
[0929] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[0930] In this invention, the server includes an eye tracking unit that identifies a specific product when the user moves around the store and directs their gaze at the product, a unit that dynamically adjusts recommendations for the identified product according to the user's emotional state, and a unit that displays the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on smart glasses or a head-mounted display, thereby improving the shopping experience in a physical store and making it possible to provide appropriate information and recommendations in real time for products that interest the user.
[0931] "Means for collecting user information" refers to a function for inputting and recording user preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, the latest trends, and the like.
[0932] The "means for users to input their favorite images, hashtags, and text" refers to an interface that allows users to input images, hashtags, text, etc. that specifically indicate their own fashion style and preferences.
[0933] "Means for analyzing user information and the images, hashtags, and text" refers to a function for analyzing collected user information and input images, hashtags, and text to understand user preferences and trends.
[0934] "Means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items" refers to a system that selects and suggests the most suitable fashion items for users based on the analysis results.
[0935] The "means for generating specific reasons for recommendation" is a function for automatically generating detailed explanations and reasons why recommended fashion items are preferred.
[0936] The "means for suggesting other items and cosmetics" is a function for automatically suggesting other fashion items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the recommended fashion items.
[0937] The "means for displaying to the user" is an interface for visually presenting information about the recommended fashion items and other suggested items and cosmetics to the user.
[0938] The "eye tracking means" is a technology for identifying and tracking a particular product when the user directs their gaze at the product.
[0939] "Dynamic adjustment means" is a function that allows recommendations to be changed and adjusted in real time according to the user's emotions and behavior.
[0940] "Means for displaying on smart glasses or a head-mounted display" refers to a function for displaying the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on a smart device in real time.
[0941] Specific configurations and methods for implementing the present invention are described below.
[0942] 1. Collection of User Information
[0943] The terminal uses smart glasses and mobile devices to collect user information. Users use these devices to input their preferred style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trend information. This information is sent to a server and stored in a database.
[0944] 2. Eye tracking and product identification
[0945] The smart glasses use built-in eye-tracking technology (e.g., Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) to identify the products the user is looking at in the store, recognize the products the user is looking at, and send the related information to a server.
[0946] 3. Recommendation Generation and Sentiment Analysis
[0947] The server generates personalized recommendations based on the aforementioned user information and eye-tracking information. This includes suggesting fashion items based on the user's input and profile using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI API). It also uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state from their facial expressions and behavior and dynamically adjust the recommendations.
[0948] 4. Displaying recommendation reasons and dynamic adjustment
[0949] The device displays the recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time on smart glasses or a head-mounted display. Based on the results of the sentiment analysis engine, the device adjusts the recommendation reasons and the display of recommended items. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, it will emphasize positive feedback.
[0950] Specific examples
[0951] For example, if a user wears smart glasses and enters a store and looks at a particular product, fashion items related to that product will be automatically recommended. The recommendation will be displayed on the visual device along with the reason for the recommendation generated by the server based on the user's information. This allows users to enjoy shopping while receiving detailed information and personalized recommendations.
[0952] Prompt Sentence Examples
[0953] An example of a prompt generated by the server is:

[0968] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0969] Step 1:
[0970] The user logs in using smart glasses or a mobile device. After logging in, the user enters their preferred style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, latest trend information, etc. This information is sent to the server and stored in a database.
[0971] Input: User profile information (style, body type, color, purchase history, trend information)
[0972] Output: User information stored in the database
[0973] Step 2:
[0974] As a user moves around the store, the smart glasses' eye-tracking technology (Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) is used to identify the products they are looking at. The glasses then transmit the user's gaze data to a server.
[0975] Input: User gaze data
[0976] Output: Identified product information
[0977] Step 3:
[0978] The server analyzes the user's gaze data and saved profile information to generate personalized recommendations for the user. A generative AI model (OpenAI API) is used to suggest fashion items based on the user's prompts.
[0979] Input: Identified product information, user profile information
[0980] Output: A list of recommended fashion items
[0981] Step 4:
[0982] The server inputs the user's prompt information into the generative AI model to generate specific recommendation reasons, including specific reasons and explanations for the new recommendation.
[0983] Input: Identified product information, user profile information, prompt information
[0984] Output: Specific reasons for recommendation
[0985] Step 5:
[0986] The server uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state based on their facial expressions and behavior. Based on the user's emotions, the recommendation content is dynamically adjusted. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the server emphasizes positive feedback.
[0987] Input: gaze data, facial expression data, behavior data
[0988] Output: Adjusted recommendation content
[0989] Step 6:
[0990] The device (smart glasses or head-mounted display) displays the generated recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time. The user can consider products based on this information and obtain additional information as needed.
[0991] Input: Adjusted recommendation content, specific reasons for recommendation
[0992] Output: Present information to the user
[0993] Step 7:
[0994] The user selects recommended fashion items or other suggested items through their device. Detailed information about the selected item and related items are displayed. The device then sends the information back to the server, which generates additional recommendations as needed.
[0995] Input: User selection information
[0996] Output: Show detailed information and related items
[0997] Through these steps, users can enjoy a personalized shopping experience in a physical store.
[0998] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio 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 audio data.
[0999] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. 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 voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.
[1000] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12 has been given, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the smart glasses 214.

[1253] The server selects "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" as recommendations and displays them on the device.
[1254] The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time and recognizes that the user is interested in the recommended item but is also feeling anxious.
[1255] The server adjusts the recommendation statement to read, "This pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for casual spring occasions. Many users also rate this item highly."
[1256] Example 2: Combining boosting and emotion engines
[1257] The user selects "Pastel Pink Blouse" from the presented recommendation list.
[1258] The server generates reasons for recommending this item, explaining, for example, "This pastel pink is a perfect match for your personal color and also goes well with a casual spring vibe."
[1259] The server will also suggest items that go well with the blouse, such as white denim and light blue sneakers.
[1260] The server analyzes user responses and checks to see which ones are more positive.
[1261] The server displays the original reasons for the recommendation and adds suggestions to encourage additional purchases (e.g., "This outfit is eligible for a 30% off campaign!").
[1262] The device displays this information to the user and supports overall styling.
[1263] As a result, the present invention not only provides users with personalized fashion suggestions and a sense of security when shopping online, but also uses an emotion engine to achieve even more accurate recommendations and support.
[1264] The processing flow will be explained below.
[1265] Step 1:
[1266] A user logs in to an e-commerce site and a session begins.
[1267] Step 2:
[1268] The terminal displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page to the user, and the user enters their preferences, body type information, personal color, past purchase history, the latest trend information, etc.
[1269] Step 3:
[1270] The server receives the user's input and stores it in a database.
[1271] Step 4:
[1272] The device displays an image, hashtag, and text input field to the user, and the user can enter their favorite image, hashtag, or text.
[1273] Step 5:
[1274] The server analyzes the user's input data, which involves applying natural language processing based on the user's profile information and sending a request to the ChatGPT API to materialize the abstract image.
[1275] Step 6:
[1276] The server analyzes the response from the ChatGPT API and selects the appropriate fashion items for the user.
[1277] Step 7:
[1278] The server generates a list of selected fashion items and stores it in a database.
[1279] Step 8:
[1280] The device displays the recommendation list to the user.
[1281] Step 9:
[1282] The user selects the product of interest from the recommendation list.
[1283] Step 10:
[1284] The server generates specific reasons for recommending selected products, such as "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly and goes well with a casual spring look."
[1285] Step 11:
[1286] The server will suggest other items (e.g., "white denim" or "light blue sneakers") and cosmetics that go well with the selected product.
[1287] Step 12:
[1288] The terminal displays this information to the user, allowing them to understand it visually.
[1289] Step 13:
[1290] The server analyzes the user's input information and selection behavior, and recognizes the user's emotions using an emotion engine.
[1291] Step 14:
[1292] The server dynamically adjusts the recommendation content based on the user's emotions. For example, if the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server may change the emphasis on the recommended item or suggest additional similar products.
[1293] Step 15:
[1294] The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time and adjusts the reason for the recommendation accordingly. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the reason will be changed to emphasize positive feedback.
[1295] Through the above steps, users can confidently choose fashion items that suit them, and by using the emotion engine, even more accurate recommendations and support can be achieved.
[1296] Example 2
[1297] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1298] Conventional online fashion recommendation systems do not fully consider users' subjective preferences and emotions when making recommendations, making it difficult to provide products that truly satisfy users. Furthermore, conventional systems cannot respond to changes in users' emotions, and therefore do not sufficiently motivate users to purchase additional products that they are temporarily interested in.
[1299] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for collecting user information; means for inputting a user's favorite images, hashtags, and text; means for analyzing the user information and the images, hashtags, and text; means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items based on the analysis results; means for generating specific recommendation reasons for the recommended fashion items; means for suggesting other items and cosmetics that are easily combined with the fashion items; means for displaying the recommended fashion items and the suggested other items and cosmetics to the user; means for analyzing the user's input information and behavior and recognizing emotions; means for dynamically adjusting the recommendation content based on the recognized user emotions; and means for analyzing the user's reaction to the recommended items in real time and dynamically adjusting the recommendation reasons in accordance with the analysis results. This enables personalized recommendations of fashion items based on the user's preferences and emotions, and dynamic adjustment of recommendations in accordance with the user's emotions.

[1309] "Means for analyzing user reactions to the recommended item in real time and dynamically adjusting the reason for recommendation based on the analysis results" refers to a system that collects and analyzes user reaction data in real time and dynamically changes the reason for recommendation based on the results.
[1310] A "generative AI model" is an artificial intelligence model that generates natural language and recognizes data patterns based on user information and behavioral data.
[1311] A "prompt" is an instruction or question that is input to a generative AI model to output recommendations.
[1312] System Overview
[1313] This invention is a system that recommends personalized fashion items based on a user's preferences and emotional state. The system is realized by combining four main functions: user information collection, recommendation function, boost function, and emotion engine.
[1314] Hardware and software used
[1315] Server: Used to analyze data and select recommended items. The main software includes Python natural language processing libraries (NLTK and spaCy), sentiment analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER), and generative AI models (ChatGPT API).
[1316] Device: This serves as the interface where users can input information and view recommended items and descriptions. This is typically a web browser or a mobile app.
[1317] Database: Used to store user information. Popular databases include AWS RDS (Relational Database Service) and MySQL.
[1318] Processing Details
[1319] 1. Collection of User Information
[1320] When a user logs in to an e-commerce site, the device displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page. The user enters information such as their preferred fashion style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends. This information is sent to the server and stored in a database such as AWS RDS or MySQL.
[1321] 2. Recommendation function
[1322] The device displays an image, hashtags, and a text input field to the user. The user uploads an image of their choice and enters text and hashtags. The server analyzes the received data using Python's natural language processing library (NLTK or spaCy) and generates a prompt for the ChatGPT API based on the analysis results. Based on the response from the ChatGPT API, the server selects appropriate fashion items and displays them on the device.
[1323] 3. Boost function
[1324] When a user selects a product from the recommendation list, the server generates specific reasons for recommending that product. For example, a reason might be provided such as, "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly." Other related items (such as "white denim" or "light blue sneakers") are also suggested. This information is displayed on the device, allowing the user to visually understand the recommendation.
[1325] 4. Utilizing the Emotion Engine
[1326] The server analyzes the user's input information and behavior using emotion analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER) to recognize the user's emotions. If the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server dynamically adjusts the emphasis of the recommended items. For example, it adds information about limited-time sales or special offers. The user's reactions are analyzed in real time, and if the user shows anxiety, for example, it changes the reason statement to emphasize positive feedback.
[1327] Specific examples
[1328] Combining recommendation functionality with an emotion engine
[1329] A user enters "casual" and "I like pastel colors" in their profile. They then write "A perfect outfit for a spring picnic" in the text field and add the hashtag "spring casual." The server analyzes the input data and selects "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" as recommendations, which are displayed on the device. The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time, and if the user is interested in a recommended item but has concerns, it dynamically adjusts the reason for the recommendation to something like, "This pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for spring casual occasions."
[1330] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1331] "Suggest a casual outfit perfect for a spring picnic. Your user likes pastel pink and prefers casual styles."

[1414] (Application example 2)
[1415] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1416] While conventional fashion recommendation systems suggest personalized items to users when shopping online, they do not address the in-store shopping experience. Furthermore, they do not provide recommendations that take into account the user's real-time movements and emotions, which prevents them from fully enhancing user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need for a system that effectively utilizes devices such as eye-tracking technology, smart glasses, and head-mounted displays to enable users to obtain the information they want in-store in real time.
[1417] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[1418] In this invention, the server includes an eye tracking unit that identifies a specific product when the user moves around the store and directs their gaze at the product, a unit that dynamically adjusts recommendations for the identified product according to the user's emotional state, and a unit that displays the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on smart glasses or a head-mounted display, thereby improving the shopping experience in a physical store and making it possible to provide appropriate information and recommendations in real time for products that interest the user.
[1419] "Means for collecting user information" refers to a function for inputting and recording user preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, the latest trends, and the like.
[1420] The "means for users to input their favorite images, hashtags, and text" refers to an interface that allows users to input images, hashtags, text, etc. that specifically indicate their own fashion style and preferences.
[1421] "Means for analyzing user information and the images, hashtags, and text" refers to a function for analyzing collected user information and input images, hashtags, and text to understand user preferences and trends.
[1422] "Means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items" refers to a system that selects and suggests the most suitable fashion items for users based on the analysis results.
[1423] The "means for generating specific reasons for recommendation" is a function for automatically generating detailed explanations and reasons why recommended fashion items are preferred.
[1424] The "means for suggesting other items and cosmetics" is a function for automatically suggesting other fashion items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the recommended fashion items.
[1425] The "means for displaying to the user" is an interface for visually presenting information about the recommended fashion items and other suggested items and cosmetics to the user.
[1426] The "eye tracking means" is a technology for identifying and tracking a particular product when the user directs their gaze at the product.
[1427] "Dynamic adjustment means" is a function that allows recommendations to be changed and adjusted in real time according to the user's emotions and behavior.
[1428] "Means for displaying on smart glasses or a head-mounted display" refers to a function for displaying the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on a smart device in real time.
[1429] Specific configurations and methods for implementing the present invention are described below.
[1430] 1. Collection of User Information
[1431] The terminal uses smart glasses and mobile devices to collect user information. Users use these devices to input their preferred style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trend information. This information is sent to a server and stored in a database.
[1432] 2. Eye tracking and product identification
[1433] The smart glasses use built-in eye-tracking technology (e.g., Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) to identify the products the user is looking at in the store, recognize the products the user is looking at, and send the related information to a server.
[1434] 3. Recommendation Generation and Sentiment Analysis
[1435] The server generates personalized recommendations based on the aforementioned user information and eye-tracking information. This includes suggesting fashion items based on the user's input and profile using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI API). It also uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state from their facial expressions and behavior and dynamically adjust the recommendations.
[1436] 4. Displaying recommendation reasons and dynamic adjustment
[1437] The device displays the recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time on smart glasses or a head-mounted display. Based on the results of the sentiment analysis engine, the device adjusts the recommendation reasons and the display of recommended items. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, it will emphasize positive feedback.
[1438] Specific examples
[1439] For example, if a user wears smart glasses and enters a store and looks at a particular product, fashion items related to that product will be automatically recommended. The recommendation will be displayed on the visual device along with the reason for the recommendation generated by the server based on the user's information. This allows users to enjoy shopping while receiving detailed information and personalized recommendations.

[1460] Output: User information stored in the database
[1461] Step 2:
[1462] As a user moves around the store, the smart glasses' eye-tracking technology (Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) is used to identify the products they are looking at. The glasses then transmit the user's gaze data to a server.
[1463] Input: User gaze data
[1464] Output: Identified product information
[1465] Step 3:
[1466] The server analyzes the user's gaze data and saved profile information to generate personalized recommendations for the user. A generative AI model (OpenAI API) is used to suggest fashion items based on the user's prompts.
[1467] Input: Identified product information, user profile information
[1468] Output: A list of recommended fashion items
[1469] Step 4:
[1470] The server inputs the user's prompt information into the generative AI model to generate specific recommendation reasons, including specific reasons and explanations for the new recommendation.
[1471] Input: Identified product information, user profile information, prompt information
[1472] Output: Specific reasons for recommendation
[1473] Step 5:
[1474] The server uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state based on their facial expressions and behavior. Based on the user's emotions, the recommendation content is dynamically adjusted. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the server emphasizes positive feedback.
[1475] Input: gaze data, facial expression data, behavior data
[1476] Output: Adjusted recommendation content
[1477] Step 6:
[1478] The device (smart glasses or head-mounted display) displays the generated recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time. The user can consider products based on this information and obtain additional information as needed.
[1479] Input: Adjusted recommendation content, specific reasons for recommendation
[1480] Output: Present information to the user
[1481] Step 7:
[1482] The user selects recommended fashion items or other suggested items through their device. Detailed information about the selected item and related items are displayed. The device then sends the information back to the server, which generates additional recommendations as needed.
[1483] Input: User selection information
[1484] Output: Show detailed information and related items
[1485] Through these steps, users can enjoy a personalized shopping experience in a physical store.
[1486] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset type terminal 314. In the headset type terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the display 343 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio 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 audio data.
[1487] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. 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 voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.
[1488] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the headset type terminal 314.

[1779] The server analyzes the user's input information and selection behavior, and recognizes the user's emotions using an emotion engine.
[1780] Step 14:
[1781] The server dynamically adjusts the recommendation content based on the user's emotions. For example, if the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server may change the emphasis on the recommended item or suggest additional similar products.
[1782] Step 15:
[1783] The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time and adjusts the reason for the recommendation accordingly. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the reason will be changed to emphasize positive feedback.
[1784] Through the above steps, users can confidently choose fashion items that suit them, and by using the emotion engine, even more accurate recommendations and support can be achieved.
[1785] Example 2
[1786] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1787] Conventional online fashion recommendation systems do not fully consider users' subjective preferences and emotions when making recommendations, making it difficult to provide products that truly satisfy users. Furthermore, conventional systems cannot respond to changes in users' emotions, and therefore do not sufficiently motivate users to purchase additional products that they are temporarily interested in.
[1788] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes: means for collecting user information; means for inputting a user's favorite images, hashtags, and text; means for analyzing the user information and the images, hashtags, and text; means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items based on the analysis results; means for generating specific recommendation reasons for the recommended fashion items; means for suggesting other items and cosmetics that are easily combined with the fashion items; means for displaying the recommended fashion items and the suggested other items and cosmetics to the user; means for analyzing the user's input information and behavior and recognizing emotions; means for dynamically adjusting the recommendation content based on the recognized user emotions; and means for analyzing the user's reaction to the recommended items in real time and dynamically adjusting the recommendation reasons in accordance with the analysis results. This enables personalized recommendations of fashion items based on the user's preferences and emotions, and dynamic adjustment of recommendations in accordance with the user's emotions.
[1789] "Means for collecting user information" refers to the interface and data collection process for collecting information such as the user's preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends.

[1791] The "means for analyzing the user information and the images, hashtags, and text" refers to a system that analyzes collected user information and input data using natural language processing and image analysis algorithms.
[1792] The "means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items based on analysis results" is a system that selects fashion items suitable for the user from the analysis results and provides recommendation information on them.
[1793] The "means for generating a specific reason for recommendation for the recommended fashion item" is a system that generates a specific reason for recommendation related to the selected fashion item and provides it to the user.
[1794] The "means for suggesting other items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the fashion item" is a system that suggests to the user other related items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the recommended fashion item.
[1795] The "means for displaying the recommended fashion items and other suggested items and cosmetics to the user" is an interface for visually displaying the selected fashion items and other suggested related items and cosmetics to the user.
[1796] The "means for analyzing the user's input information and behavior and recognizing emotions" is an emotion analysis system that analyzes the user's input data and behavior history and estimates the user's emotional state.
[1797] The "means for dynamically adjusting recommendation content based on recognized user emotions" is a system that adjusts recommendation content in real time based on analyzed emotional information.
[1798] "Means for analyzing user reactions to the recommended item in real time and dynamically adjusting the reason for recommendation based on the analysis results" refers to a system that collects and analyzes user reaction data in real time and dynamically changes the reason for recommendation based on the results.
[1799] A "generative AI model" is an artificial intelligence model that generates natural language and recognizes data patterns based on user information and behavioral data.
[1800] A "prompt" is an instruction or question that is input to a generative AI model to output recommendations.
[1801] System Overview
[1802] This invention is a system that recommends personalized fashion items based on a user's preferences and emotional state. The system is realized by combining four main functions: user information collection, recommendation function, boost function, and emotion engine.
[1803] Hardware and software used
[1804] Server: Used to analyze data and select recommended items. The main software includes Python natural language processing libraries (NLTK and spaCy), sentiment analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER), and generative AI models (ChatGPT API).
[1805] Device: This serves as the interface where users can input information and view recommended items and descriptions. This is typically a web browser or a mobile app.
[1806] Database: Used to store user information. Popular databases include AWS RDS (Relational Database Service) and MySQL.
[1807] Processing Details
[1808] 1. Collection of User Information
[1809] When a user logs in to an e-commerce site, the device displays a questionnaire form and a profile entry page. The user enters information such as their preferred fashion style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trends. This information is sent to the server and stored in a database such as AWS RDS or MySQL.
[1810] 2. Recommendation function
[1811] The device displays an image, hashtags, and a text input field to the user. The user uploads an image of their choice and enters text and hashtags. The server analyzes the received data using Python's natural language processing library (NLTK or spaCy) and generates a prompt for the ChatGPT API based on the analysis results. Based on the response from the ChatGPT API, the server selects appropriate fashion items and displays them on the device.
[1812] 3. Boost function
[1813] When a user selects a product from the recommendation list, the server generates specific reasons for recommending that product. For example, a reason might be provided such as, "This pastel pink blouse matches your personal color perfectly." Other related items (such as "white denim" or "light blue sneakers") are also suggested. This information is displayed on the device, allowing the user to visually understand the recommendation.
[1814] 4. Utilizing the Emotion Engine
[1815] The server analyzes the user's input information and behavior using emotion analysis libraries (TextBlob and VADER) to recognize the user's emotions. If the user is unsure about which product to choose, the server dynamically adjusts the emphasis of the recommended items. For example, it adds information about limited-time sales or special offers. The user's reactions are analyzed in real time, and if the user shows anxiety, for example, it changes the reason statement to emphasize positive feedback.
[1816] Specific examples
[1817] Combining recommendation functionality with an emotion engine
[1818] A user enters "casual" and "I like pastel colors" in their profile. They then write "A perfect outfit for a spring picnic" in the text field and add the hashtag "spring casual." The server analyzes the input data and selects "pastel pink blouse," "white denim," and "camera bag" as recommendations, which are displayed on the device. The server analyzes the user's reactions in real time, and if the user is interested in a recommended item but has concerns, it dynamically adjusts the reason for the recommendation to something like, "This pastel pink suits your personal color and is perfect for spring casual occasions."
[1819] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1820] "Suggest a casual outfit perfect for a spring picnic. Your user likes pastel pink and prefers casual styles."
[1821] This invention makes it possible to provide personalized fashion suggestions based on a user's preferences and emotions, improving the online shopping experience.

[1903] (Application example 2)
[1904] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."
[1905] While conventional fashion recommendation systems suggest personalized items to users when shopping online, they do not address the in-store shopping experience. Furthermore, they do not provide recommendations that take into account the user's real-time movements and emotions, which prevents them from fully enhancing user satisfaction. Furthermore, there is a need for a system that effectively utilizes devices such as eye-tracking technology, smart glasses, and head-mounted displays to enable users to obtain the information they want in-store in real time.
[1906] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.
[1907] In this invention, the server includes an eye tracking unit that identifies a specific product when the user moves around the store and directs their gaze at the product, a unit that dynamically adjusts recommendations for the identified product according to the user's emotional state, and a unit that displays the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on smart glasses or a head-mounted display, thereby improving the shopping experience in a physical store and making it possible to provide appropriate information and recommendations in real time for products that interest the user.
[1908] "Means for collecting user information" refers to a function for inputting and recording user preferences, body type, personal color, past purchase history, the latest trends, and the like.
[1909] The "means for users to input their favorite images, hashtags, and text" refers to an interface that allows users to input images, hashtags, text, etc. that specifically indicate their own fashion style and preferences.
[1910] "Means for analyzing user information and the images, hashtags, and text" refers to a function for analyzing collected user information and input images, hashtags, and text to understand user preferences and trends.
[1911] "Means for selecting and recommending personalized fashion items" refers to a system that selects and suggests the most suitable fashion items for users based on the analysis results.
[1912] The "means for generating specific reasons for recommendation" is a function for automatically generating detailed explanations and reasons why recommended fashion items are preferred.
[1913] The "means for suggesting other items and cosmetics" is a function for automatically suggesting other fashion items and cosmetics that can be easily combined with the recommended fashion items.
[1914] The "means for displaying to the user" is an interface for visually presenting information about the recommended fashion items and other suggested items and cosmetics to the user.
[1915] The "eye tracking means" is a technology for identifying and tracking a particular product when the user directs their gaze at the product.
[1916] "Dynamic adjustment means" is a function that allows recommendations to be changed and adjusted in real time according to the user's emotions and behavior.
[1917] "Means for displaying on smart glasses or a head-mounted display" refers to a function for displaying the generated recommendation reasons and recommendation content on a smart device in real time.
[1918] Specific configurations and methods for implementing the present invention are described below.
[1919] 1. Collection of User Information
[1920] The terminal uses smart glasses and mobile devices to collect user information. Users use these devices to input their preferred style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, and the latest trend information. This information is sent to a server and stored in a database.
[1921] 2. Eye tracking and product identification
[1922] The smart glasses use built-in eye-tracking technology (e.g., Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) to identify the products the user is looking at in the store, recognize the products the user is looking at, and send the related information to a server.
[1923] 3. Recommendation Generation and Sentiment Analysis
[1924] The server generates personalized recommendations based on the aforementioned user information and eye-tracking information. This includes suggesting fashion items based on the user's input and profile using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI API). It also uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state from their facial expressions and behavior and dynamically adjust the recommendations.
[1925] 4. Displaying recommendation reasons and dynamic adjustment
[1926] The device displays the recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time on smart glasses or a head-mounted display. Based on the results of the sentiment analysis engine, the device adjusts the recommendation reasons and the display of recommended items. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, it will emphasize positive feedback.
[1927] Specific examples
[1928] For example, if a user wears smart glasses and enters a store and looks at a particular product, fashion items related to that product will be automatically recommended. The recommendation will be displayed on the visual device along with the reason for the recommendation generated by the server based on the user's information. This allows users to enjoy shopping while receiving detailed information and personalized recommendations.
[1929] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1930] An example of a prompt generated by the server is:
[1931] markdown
[1932] User Profile:
[1933] Favorite style: Casual, pastel colors
[1934] Body type: Medium build
[1935] Past purchases: Jeans, blouses, casual shoes
[1936] User input:
[1937] Tags: Spring Casual
[1938] Keywords: Spring Picnic
[1939] Recommended Items:
[1940] pastel pink blouse
[1941] White denim
[1942] camera bag
[1943] Recommended reasons include:
[1944] This pastel pink blouse is perfect for your personal color and is perfect for casual spring occasions!
[1945] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[1946] Step 1:
[1947] The user logs in using smart glasses or a mobile device. After logging in, the user enters their preferred style, body type, personal color, past purchase history, latest trend information, etc. This information is sent to the server and stored in a database.
[1948] Input: User profile information (style, body type, color, purchase history, trend information)
[1949] Output: User information stored in the database
[1950] Step 2:
[1951] As a user moves around the store, the smart glasses' eye-tracking technology (Tobii Eye Tracker SDK) is used to identify the products they are looking at. The glasses then transmit the user's gaze data to a server.
[1952] Input: User gaze data
[1953] Output: Identified product information
[1954] Step 3:
[1955] The server analyzes the user's gaze data and saved profile information to generate personalized recommendations for the user. A generative AI model (OpenAI API) is used to suggest fashion items based on the user's prompts.
[1956] Input: Identified product information, user profile information
[1957] Output: A list of recommended fashion items
[1958] Step 4:
[1959] The server inputs the user's prompt information into the generative AI model to generate specific recommendation reasons, including specific reasons and explanations for the new recommendation.
[1960] Input: Identified product information, user profile information, prompt information
[1961] Output: Specific reasons for recommendation
[1962] Step 5:
[1963] The server uses an emotion analysis engine to analyze the user's emotional state based on their facial expressions and behavior. Based on the user's emotions, the recommendation content is dynamically adjusted. For example, if the user is interested but anxious, the server emphasizes positive feedback.
[1964] Input: gaze data, facial expression data, behavior data
[1965] Output: Adjusted recommendation content
[1966] Step 6:
[1967] The device (smart glasses or head-mounted display) displays the generated recommendation content and specific reasons for the recommendation in real time. The user can consider products based on this information and obtain additional information as needed.
[1968] Input: Adjusted recommendation content, specific reasons for recommendation
[1969] Output: Present information to the user
[1970] Step 7:
[1971] The user selects recommended fashion items or other suggested items through their device. Detailed information about the selected item and related items are displayed. The device then sends the information back to the server, which generates additional recommendations as needed.
[1972] Input: User selection information
[1973] Output: Show detailed information and related items
[1974] Through these steps, users can enjoy a personalized shopping experience in a physical store.
[1975] 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 voice indicating a user input regarding 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.
[1976] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. 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 voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.
[1977] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the robot 414.
[1978] 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.
[1979] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating 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 actions arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion includes both affect 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.
[1980] 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.
[1981] 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).
[1982] 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. Emotions can also be created for robots, automobiles, 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on Voice Emotion Recognition and Emotional Brain Physiological Signal Analysis Systems, Tokushima University, Doctoral Dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "reaction" domain, where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "situation" domain, where situational awareness is dominant.
[1983] 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."
[1984] 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.
[1985] The system according to the present disclosure has been described above mainly with respect to the functions of the data processing device 12, but the system according to the present disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system according to the present disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system. The present disclosure may be implemented, for example, as a software program running on a personal computer or an application running on a smartphone, etc. The method according to the present disclosure may be provided to users in the form of SaaS (Software as a Service).
[1986] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by one computer 22, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be distributed and performed by a plurality of computers including the computer 22. For example, the data generation model 58 may be provided in an external device of the data processing device 12, and data may be generated in the external device in accordance with input data.
[1987] 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.
[1988] 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.
[1989] 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.
[1990] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following processors: An example of a processor is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. Another example of a processor is a dedicated electrical circuit, such as an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), a PLD (Programmable Logic Device), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which is a processor with a circuit configuration designed specifically for executing a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.
[1991] The hardware resource that executes the specific processing 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 processing may be a single processor.
[1992] 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).
