[0161] Details: A company has been hit by a ransomware attack and their files have been encrypted. Recovery and countermeasures are urgently needed. We need expert advice on whether to comply with the attacker's demands and how to recover the data.

[0162] Run the program that generates a list of suitable experts from the system's database.

[0163] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0164] Step 1:

[0165] The server collects data on the masters. It uses web scraping technologies such as Beautiful Soup and Scrapy to retrieve the masters' biographies, papers, books, interviews, etc. from the Internet. It uses a list of URLs from multiple websites as input, and stores the masters' information as structured data in a database as output.

[0166] Step 2:

[0167] The server categorizes the collected data by area of ​​expertise. The server uses natural language processing (NLP) techniques such as Spacy or NLTK to categorize the collected data into categories such as firewalls, encryption technologies, and endpoint protection. It uses the collected data as input and obtains data organized by category as output.

[0168] Step 3:

[0169] The user inputs a theme into a dedicated terminal. The user inputs a specific theme using the terminal's input interface. For example, the user might input "responding to ransomware attacks." The theme keyword is used as input, and the keyword is sent to the server as output.

[0170] Step 4:

[0171] The server searches for relevant experts based on a topic. The server uses NLP techniques to search for experts related to a topic from a database. It uses the topic entered by the user as input and generates a list of relevant experts as output.

[0172] Step 5:

[0173] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the terminal. The user checks the list and presses the select button to select. The list of experts is used as input, and the information of the selected expert is sent to the server as output.

[0174] Step 6:

[0175] The server sends an online meeting invitation to the selected expert. The server sends the invitation using Zoom or a dedicated secure conferencing platform. The server uses the contact information of the selected expert as input and confirms that the invitation has been sent as output.

[0176] Step 7:

[0177] During the meeting, the server uses speech recognition technology to convert the experts' speech into text. The server uses speech recognition services such as Google Cloud Speech-to-Text and IBM Watson. The server uses the speech data from the meeting as input and obtains the text of the speech as output.

[0178] Step 8:

[0179] The server shares the textual utterances with other participants in real time. The server displays the textual utterances on the other participants' devices in real time. The server uses the textual utterance data as input and provides feedback to the participants' devices as output.

[0180] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be 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.

[0181] This invention provides a system that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the progress of a meeting based on them by combining an emotion engine with a system that collects and classifies expert data, invites experts to online meetings, and provides real-time feedback. This system is realized by the server, terminals, users, and the emotion engine each playing a specific role.

[0182] System program processing

[0183] Master data collection

[0184] The server runs a program that collects data on the masters from the Internet, specifically using web scraping technology to obtain data such as their career histories, papers, books, and interview articles, and stores it in a database.

[0185] Data classification

[0186] The server uses natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to categorize the collected data by subject area, such as business, technology, medicine, energy, and other categories.

[0187] Enter a topic and search for experts

[0188] The user inputs a topic into a dedicated terminal. For example, the topic is "improving the manufacturing process of new materials." Based on this input, the server searches the database for relevant experts.

[0189] Selection and invitation of experts

[0190] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the device, for example by clicking on "famous scientists in new materials." The server then sends an invitation to the selected expert via an online conference platform such as Zoom.

[0191] Real-time feedback and sentiment analysis

[0192] The device converts the expert's speech into text using speech recognition technology in real time during the meeting and provides feedback to other participants. In addition, the emotion engine analyzes the emotional state of each user in real time during the meeting and sends the results to the server.

[0193] Specific examples

[0194] For example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[0195] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[0196] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[0197] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[0198] 4. The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected scientists.

[0199] 5. After the meeting starts, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and sends that information to the server.

[0200] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[0201] This system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, invite the most suitable experts to the meeting, and analyze and provide feedback on the user's emotional state in real time, which will help meetings proceed smoothly and enable more effective decision-making.

[0202] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0203] Step 1:

[0204] The server runs a web scraping program to collect data on the masters. Specifically, it automatically retrieves data about the masters, such as their biographies, papers, books, and interview articles, from specific URLs and stores them in a structured format in a database.

[0205] Step 2:

[0206] The server stores the collected data in a database. Specifically, it inserts the acquired text data into the database using SQL queries and organizes and stores it by expert.

[0207] Step 3:

[0208] The server uses natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to categorize the stored data by subject area, specifically by using topic modeling and clustering techniques to categorize the data into categories such as business, technology, medicine, and energy.

[0209] Step 4:

[0210] The user inputs the topic of the meeting through the interface of the dedicated terminal, for example, "improving the manufacturing process of new materials," and clicks the search button.

[0211] Step 5:

[0212] The server searches the database based on the topic entered by the user and lists relevant experts. Specifically, it queries the database with keywords related to the topic and extracts relevant experts.

[0213] Step 6:

[0214] The server sends a list of experts found in the search to the device, and specifically makes a call to display the names and areas of expertise of the listed experts on the user's device via the API.

[0215] Step 7:

[0216] The user selects the most appropriate expert from the displayed list of experts, for example, by clicking on "famous scientists on new materials."

[0217] Step 8:

[0218] The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected expert. Specifically, it uses Zoom's API to send an invitation email containing the date and time of the meeting and a link to the selected expert.

[0219] Step 9:

[0220] Once the meeting has started, the device will convert the speech of the expert into text in real time using speech recognition technology and provide feedback to other participants. Specifically, the device converts the speech data into text and automatically highlights and displays important points.

[0221] Step 10:

[0222] The emotion engine analyzes users' emotions in real time during meetings, using facial recognition technology and voice analysis to extract emotional data from users' facial expressions, tone of voice, and choice of words.

[0223] Step 11:

[0224] The server receives the emotion data from the emotion engine and provides feedback according to the user's emotional state. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the server sends a notification to the terminal to adjust the progress of the meeting.

[0225] Step 12:

[0226] The terminal receives notifications from the server and adjusts the progress of the meeting. Specifically, it displays a summary of questions to the expert and provides support to help the user understand the content.

[0227] Example 2

[0228] 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."

[0229] Conventional online conference systems make it difficult to efficiently search for and invite experts with specialized knowledge and provide real-time feedback during the meeting. Furthermore, there are no systems that recognize participants' emotional states during the meeting and optimize the progress of the meeting. As a result, the meeting may not proceed smoothly and decision-making may be delayed.

[0230] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for collecting expert data, means for classifying the collected data by field of expertise, means for searching for the most suitable expert for the theme based on the classified data, means for inviting the expert selected based on the search results to an online conference, means for providing feedback of the expert's opinion during the conference in real time, and means for analyzing the emotional state of participants during the conference in real time and optimizing the progress of the conference based on the results. This makes it possible to efficiently search for and invite experts and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the conference.

[0231] "Master data" refers to all information about individuals with specialized knowledge and experience, including their career history, papers, books, interviews, etc.

[0232] "Collection methods" refers to the methods used to obtain data from the internet or other sources and store it in a database.

[0233] "Means of classification by field of expertise" refers to a method of dividing collected data into specific fields of expertise or categories using natural language processing algorithms, etc.

[0234] "Means for searching for the most suitable expert for a topic" refers to a method for extracting relevant experts from a database based on an input topic.

[0235] "Means for inviting selected experts to an online conference" refers to a method of sending an invitation to an online conference to selected experts and requesting their participation.

[0236] "Means of providing real-time feedback of expert opinions during a meeting" refers to a method in which what an expert says during a meeting is converted into text using voice recognition technology and provided as feedback to other participants.

[0237] "Means for analyzing participants' emotional states in real time during a meeting" refers to a method using technology, such as an emotion recognition algorithm, to analyze participants' facial expressions and voices during a meeting and determine their emotional states.

[0238] "Means for optimizing meeting progress" refers to methods for adjusting the schedule and content of meetings based on the results of sentiment analysis to help participants understand the content.

[0239] This invention provides a system that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the progress of a meeting based on them by combining an emotion engine with a system that collects and classifies expert data, invites experts to online meetings, and provides real-time feedback. This system is realized by the server, terminals, users, and the emotion engine each playing a specific role.

[0240] First, the server collects data about the masters from the Internet. Specifically, it uses web scraping technology. For example, it uses Python's BeautifulSoup or Scrapy to collect data such as the master's biography, papers, books, and interview articles, and temporarily stores that data in a cache such as Redis. This collected data is finally stored in a MySQL database.

[0241] The server then categorizes the collected data using natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, using services such as Google Cloud Natural Language API to organize the data into specialties such as business, technology, medicine, and energy. This results in the database containing data already categorized by speciality.

[0242] The user inputs a topic using a dedicated terminal. For example, they input the topic "improving the manufacturing process for new materials." Based on this input, the server searches the Elasticsearch database for relevant experts. As a result of the search, a list of relevant experts is displayed on the user's terminal.

[0243] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list. For example, they can select "famous scientists in new materials." Once the selection is complete, the server will invite the expert to an online meeting using the Zoom API or Google Calendar API. This will send a meeting invitation to the selected expert.

[0244] During the meeting, the device converts the expert's speech into text in real time using speech recognition technology (e.g., Google Speech-to-Text API) and provides it as feedback to other participants. In addition, the emotion engine analyzes the emotional state of each user in the meeting in real time. This emotion analysis is performed using the Microsoft Azure Emotion API. The analysis results are sent to the server, which then sends notifications to adjust the progress of the meeting based on the emotion data.

[0245] As a concrete example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[0246] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[0247] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[0248] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[0249] 4. The server sends an invitation to the selected scientists to attend the online meeting.

[0250] 5. Once the meeting begins, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and sends that information to the server.

[0251] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[0252] Examples of prompt sentences include:

[0253] "Find experts on manufacturing process improvements for new materials."

[0254] "Use the real-time feedback feature to analyze what experts say during meetings and provide feedback to users."

[0255] In this way, the system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, identify and invite the most suitable experts, and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the meeting.

[0584] The emotion engine analyzes users' emotions in real time during meetings, using facial recognition technology and voice analysis to extract emotional data from users' facial expressions, tone of voice, and choice of words.

[0585] Step 11:

[0586] The server receives the emotion data from the emotion engine and provides feedback according to the user's emotional state. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the server sends a notification to the terminal to adjust the progress of the meeting.

[0587] Step 12:

[0588] The terminal receives notifications from the server and adjusts the progress of the meeting. Specifically, it displays a summary of questions to the expert and provides support to help the user understand the content.

[0589] Example 2

[0590] 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."

[0591] Conventional online conference systems make it difficult to efficiently search for and invite experts with specialized knowledge and provide real-time feedback during the meeting. Furthermore, there are no systems that recognize participants' emotional states during the meeting and optimize the progress of the meeting. As a result, the meeting may not proceed smoothly and decision-making may be delayed.

[0592] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for collecting expert data, means for classifying the collected data by field of expertise, means for searching for the most suitable expert for the theme based on the classified data, means for inviting the expert selected based on the search results to an online conference, means for providing feedback of the expert's opinion during the conference in real time, and means for analyzing the emotional state of participants during the conference in real time and optimizing the progress of the conference based on the results. This makes it possible to efficiently search for and invite experts and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the conference.

[0593] "Master data" refers to all information about individuals with specialized knowledge and experience, including their career history, papers, books, interviews, etc.

[0594] "Collection methods" refers to the methods used to obtain data from the internet or other sources and store it in a database.

[0595] "Means of classification by field of expertise" refers to a method of dividing collected data into specific fields of expertise or categories using natural language processing algorithms, etc.

[0596] "Means for searching for the most suitable expert for a topic" refers to a method for extracting relevant experts from a database based on an input topic.

[0597] "Means for inviting selected experts to an online conference" refers to a method of sending an invitation to an online conference to selected experts and requesting their participation.

[0598] "Means of providing real-time feedback of expert opinions during a meeting" refers to a method in which what an expert says during a meeting is converted into text using voice recognition technology and provided as feedback to other participants.

[0599] "Means for analyzing participants' emotional states in real time during a meeting" refers to a method using technology, such as an emotion recognition algorithm, to analyze participants' facial expressions and voices during a meeting and determine their emotional states.

[0600] "Means for optimizing meeting progress" refers to methods for adjusting the schedule and content of meetings based on the results of sentiment analysis to help participants understand the content.

[0601] This invention provides a system that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the progress of a meeting based on them by combining an emotion engine with a system that collects and classifies expert data, invites experts to online meetings, and provides real-time feedback. This system is realized by the server, terminals, users, and the emotion engine each playing a specific role.

[0602] First, the server collects data about the masters from the Internet. Specifically, it uses web scraping technology. For example, it uses Python's BeautifulSoup or Scrapy to collect data such as the master's biography, papers, books, and interview articles, and temporarily stores that data in a cache such as Redis. This collected data is finally stored in a MySQL database.

[0603] The server then categorizes the collected data using natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, using services such as Google Cloud Natural Language API to organize the data into specialties such as business, technology, medicine, and energy. This results in the database containing data already categorized by speciality.

[0604] The user inputs a topic using a dedicated terminal. For example, they input the topic "improving the manufacturing process for new materials." Based on this input, the server searches the Elasticsearch database for relevant experts. As a result of the search, a list of relevant experts is displayed on the user's terminal.

[0605] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list. For example, they can select "famous scientists in new materials." Once the selection is complete, the server will invite the expert to an online meeting using the Zoom API or Google Calendar API. This will send a meeting invitation to the selected expert.

[0606] During the meeting, the device converts the expert's speech into text in real time using speech recognition technology (e.g., Google Speech-to-Text API) and provides it as feedback to other participants. In addition, the emotion engine analyzes the emotional state of each user in the meeting in real time. This emotion analysis is performed using the Microsoft Azure Emotion API. The analysis results are sent to the server, which then sends notifications to adjust the progress of the meeting based on the emotion data.

[0607] As a concrete example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[0608] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[0609] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[0610] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[0611] 4. The server sends an invitation to the selected scientists to attend the online meeting.

[0612] 5. Once the meeting begins, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and sends that information to the server.

[0613] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[0614] Examples of prompt sentences include:

[0615] "Find experts on manufacturing process improvements for new materials."

[0616] "Use the real-time feedback feature to analyze what experts say during meetings and provide feedback to users."

[0617] In this way, the system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, identify and invite the most suitable experts, and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the meeting.

The server analyzes the topic entered by the user and searches for relevant experts in the database. This search uses a full-text search engine (e.g., Elasticsearch).

[0818] Selection and invitation of experts

[0819] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the device. For example, they click on a prominent scientist related to "new materials." The server then sends an invitation to the selected expert using an online conferencing platform such as Zoom. Specifically, a Python library (e.g., zoomus) is used to call the Zoom API and automatically generate and send a meeting invitation. The invitation includes the meeting title, date and time, and a Zoom link.

[0820] Real-time feedback

[0821] The device uses speech recognition technology to convert experts' speech into text in real time during the meeting. Specifically, it uses APIs such as Google Speech-to-Text and IBM Watson Speech to Text to convert speech into text. The converted speech is then shared with other participants in real time.

[0822] Specific examples

[0823] For example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[0824] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[0825] 2. The server uses Elasticsearch to search the database for relevant experts (e.g., a particular scientist or engineer).

[0826] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[0827] 4. The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected scientists using the zoomus library.

[0828] 5. During the meeting, the device uses the Google Speech-to-Text API to transcribe the scientists' speech in real time and provide real-time feedback to other participants.

[0917] Specific examples

[0918] For example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[0919] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[0920] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[0921] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[0922] 4. The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected scientists.

[0923] 5. After the meeting starts, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and send that information to the server.

[0924] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[0925] This system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, invite the most suitable experts to the meeting, and analyze and provide feedback on the user's emotional state in real time, which will help meetings proceed more smoothly and enable more effective decision-making.

[0926] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0927] Step 1:

[0928] The server runs a web scraping program to collect data on the masters. Specifically, it automatically retrieves data about the masters, such as their biographies, papers, books, and interview articles, from specific URLs and stores them in a structured format in a database.

[0929] Step 2:

[0930] The server stores the collected data in a database. Specifically, it inserts the acquired text data into the database using SQL queries and organizes and stores it by expert.

[0931] Step 3:

[0932] The server uses natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to categorize the stored data by subject area, specifically by using topic modeling and clustering techniques to categorize the data into categories such as business, technology, medicine, and energy.

[0933] Step 4:

[0934] The user inputs the topic of the meeting through the interface of the dedicated terminal, for example, "improving the manufacturing process of new materials," and clicks the search button.

[0935] Step 5:

[0936] The server searches the database based on the topic entered by the user and lists relevant experts. Specifically, it queries the database with keywords related to the topic and extracts relevant experts.

[0937] Step 6:

[0938] The server sends a list of experts found in the search to the device, and specifically makes a call to display the names and areas of expertise of the listed experts on the user's device via the API.

[0939] Step 7:

[0940] The user selects the most appropriate expert from the displayed list of experts, for example, by clicking on "famous scientists on new materials."

[0941] Step 8:

[0942] The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected experts. Specifically, it uses Zoom's API to send an invitation email containing the date and time of the meeting and a link to the selected experts.

[0943] Step 9:

[0944] Once the meeting has started, the device will convert the speech of the expert into text in real time using speech recognition technology and provide feedback to other participants. Specifically, the device converts the speech data into text and automatically highlights and displays important points.

[0945] Step 10:

[0946] The emotion engine analyzes users' emotions in real time during meetings, using facial recognition technology and voice analysis to extract emotional data from users' facial expressions, tone of voice, and choice of words.

[0947] Step 11:

[0948] The server receives the emotion data from the emotion engine and provides feedback according to the user's emotional state. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the server sends a notification to the terminal to adjust the progress of the meeting.

[0949] Step 12:

[0950] The terminal receives notifications from the server and adjusts the progress of the meeting. Specifically, it displays a summary of questions to the expert and provides support to help the user understand the content.

[0951] Example 2

[0952] 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."

[0953] Conventional online conference systems make it difficult to efficiently search for and invite experts with specialized knowledge and provide real-time feedback during the meeting. Furthermore, there are no systems that recognize participants' emotional states during the meeting and optimize the progress of the meeting. As a result, the meeting may not proceed smoothly and decision-making may be delayed.

[0954] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for collecting expert data, means for classifying the collected data by field of expertise, means for searching for the most suitable expert for the theme based on the classified data, means for inviting the expert selected based on the search results to an online conference, means for providing feedback of the expert's opinion during the conference in real time, and means for analyzing the emotional state of participants during the conference in real time and optimizing the progress of the conference based on the results. This makes it possible to efficiently search for and invite experts and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the conference.

[0955] "Master data" refers to all information about individuals with specialized knowledge and experience, including their career history, papers, books, interviews, etc.

[0956] "Collection methods" refers to the methods used to obtain data from the internet or other sources and store it in a database.

[0957] "Means of classification by field of expertise" refers to a method of dividing collected data into specific fields of expertise or categories using natural language processing algorithms, etc.

[0958] "Means for searching for the most suitable expert for a topic" refers to a method for extracting relevant experts from a database based on an input topic.

[0959] "Means of inviting selected experts to an online conference" refers to a method of sending an invitation to an online conference to selected experts and requesting their participation.

[0960] "Means of providing real-time feedback of expert opinions during a meeting" refers to a method in which what an expert says during a meeting is converted into text using voice recognition technology and provided as feedback to other participants.

[0961] "Means for analyzing participants' emotional states in real time during a meeting" refers to a method using technology, such as an emotion recognition algorithm, to analyze participants' facial expressions and voices during a meeting and determine their emotional states.

[0962] "Means for optimizing meeting progress" refers to methods for adjusting the schedule and content of meetings based on the results of sentiment analysis to help participants understand the content.

[0963] This invention provides a system that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the progress of a meeting based on them by combining an emotion engine with a system that collects and classifies expert data, invites experts to online meetings, and provides real-time feedback. This system is realized by the server, terminals, users, and the emotion engine each playing a specific role.

[0964] First, the server collects data about the masters from the Internet. Specifically, it uses web scraping technology. For example, it uses Python's BeautifulSoup or Scrapy to collect data such as the master's biography, papers, books, and interview articles, and temporarily stores that data in a cache such as Redis. This collected data is finally stored in a MySQL database.

[0965] The server then categorizes the collected data using natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, using services such as Google Cloud Natural Language API to organize the data into specialties such as business, technology, medicine, and energy. This results in the database containing data already categorized by speciality.

[0966] The user inputs a topic using a dedicated terminal. For example, they input the topic "improving the manufacturing process for new materials." Based on this input, the server searches the Elasticsearch database for relevant experts. As a result of the search, a list of relevant experts is displayed on the user's terminal.

[0967] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list. For example, they can select "famous scientists in new materials." Once the selection is complete, the server invites the expert to an online meeting using the Zoom API or Google Calendar API. This sends a meeting invitation to the selected expert.

[0968] During the meeting, the device converts the expert's speech into text in real time using speech recognition technology (e.g., Google Speech-to-Text API) and provides it as feedback to other participants. In addition, the emotion engine analyzes the emotional state of each user in the meeting in real time. This emotion analysis is performed using the Microsoft Azure Emotion API. The analysis results are sent to the server, which then sends notifications to adjust the progress of the meeting based on the emotion data.

[0969] As a concrete example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[0970] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[0971] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[0972] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[0973] 4. The server sends an invitation to the selected scientists to attend the online meeting.

[0974] 5. Once the meeting begins, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and sends that information to the server.

[0975] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[0976] Examples of prompt sentences include:

[0977] "Find experts on manufacturing process improvements for new materials."

[0978] "Use the real-time feedback feature to analyze what experts say during meetings and provide feedback to users."

[0979] In this way, the system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, identify and invite the most suitable experts, and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the meeting.

[0980] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[0981] Step 1: Collecting data on experts

[1207] Step 5:

[1208] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the terminal. For example, by clicking "famous scientists related to new materials." The information of the expert selected from the expert list is used as input, and the selected expert is notified to the server as output. Specifically, when the user selects the most suitable expert from the list and clicks the selection button, the terminal sends the selection information to the server.

[1209] Step 6:

[1210] The server sends invitations to the selected experts using an online conferencing platform such as Zoom. Specifically, it calls the Zoom API using the Python library zoomus. The information of the expert selected by the user and the details of the meeting are used as input, and an invitation is generated as output and sent to the expert. Specifically, the server connects to the Zoom API and automatically generates and sends a meeting invitation for the specified date and time.

[1211] Step 7:

[1212] The device converts the expert's speech during the meeting into text in real time using speech recognition technology. Specifically, it uses the Google Speech-to-Text and IBM Watson Speech to Text APIs. It uses the audio data from the meeting as input and generates the text of the speech as output. Specifically, the device establishes a connection to the speech recognition API and sends the audio data via streaming. The recognized text is displayed in real time on the front end using WebSocket.

[1213] The above are the specific processing steps of the program of this system.

[1214] (Application example 1)

[1215] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 1. 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."

[1216] In today's cybersecurity environment, it is extremely important for companies to take prompt and appropriate security measures. However, there are limited ways to utilize the knowledge and experience of security experts in real time, making it difficult to respond quickly to specific threats. There is also a lack of ways to quickly share expert opinions during meetings in a way that all participants can understand immediately. This can lead to delays in decision-making and discrepancies in information.

[1217] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 1 is realized by the following means.

[1218] In this invention, the server includes means for collecting expert data, means for classifying the collected data by field of expertise, means for searching for the most suitable expert for the topic based on the classified data, means for inviting the expert selected based on the search results to an online conference, means for providing feedback of the expert's opinion in real time during the conference, means for classifying the collected data into categories such as firewall, encryption technology, and endpoint protection, means for converting the expert's remarks during the conference into text using voice recognition technology, and means for sharing the converted text with other participants in real time, thereby enabling prompt and appropriate security measures.

This process uses speech recognition technologies such as Google Cloud Speech-to-Text and IBM Watson. The converted speech is immediately fed back to other participants in real time.

[1243] Examples:

[1244] A user inputs a topic such as, "A specific company has been attacked by ransomware and its files have been encrypted. Recovery and countermeasures are urgently needed. We need expert opinions on whether we should comply with the attacker's demands and how to recover the data." Based on this input, the server searches for relevant experts and suggests well-known experts who are experts in ransomware countermeasures. A meeting is then held, and the experts' comments are converted into text in real time using voice recognition technology and instantly shared with other participants.

[1245] Example prompt sentence:

[1246] “Please provide a list of security experts for the following incident.

[1247] Incident details: Ransomware attack

[1248] Details: A company has been hit by a ransomware attack and their files have been encrypted. Recovery and countermeasures are urgently needed. We need expert advice on whether to comply with the attacker's demands and how to recover the data.

[1249] Run the program that generates a list of suitable experts from the system's database.

[1250] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1251] Step 1:

[1252] The server collects data on the masters. It uses web scraping technologies such as Beautiful Soup and Scrapy to retrieve the masters' biographies, papers, books, interviews, etc. from the Internet. It uses a list of URLs from multiple websites as input, and stores the masters' information as structured data in a database as output.

[1253] Step 2:

[1254] The server categorizes the collected data by area of ​​expertise. The server uses natural language processing (NLP) techniques such as Spacy or NLTK to categorize the collected data into categories such as firewalls, encryption technologies, and endpoint protection. It uses the collected data as input and obtains data organized by category as output.

[1255] Step 3:

[1256] The user inputs a theme into a dedicated terminal. The user inputs a specific theme using the terminal's input interface. For example, the user might input "responding to ransomware attacks." The theme keyword is used as input, and the keyword is sent to the server as output.

[1257] Step 4:

[1258] The server searches for relevant experts based on a topic. The server uses NLP techniques to search for experts related to a topic from a database. It uses the topic entered by the user as input and generates a list of relevant experts as output.

[1259] Step 5:

[1260] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the terminal. The user checks the list and presses the select button to select. The list of experts is used as input, and the information of the selected expert is sent to the server as output.

[1261] Step 6:

[1262] The server sends an online meeting invitation to the selected expert. The server sends the invitation using Zoom or a dedicated secure conferencing platform. The server uses the selected expert's contact information as input and confirms that the invitation has been sent as output.

[1263] Step 7:

[1264] During the meeting, the server uses speech recognition technology to convert the experts' speech into text. The server uses speech recognition services such as Google Cloud Speech-to-Text and IBM Watson. The server uses the speech data from the meeting as input and obtains the text of the speech as output.

[1265] Step 8:

[1266] The server shares the textual utterances with other participants in real time. The server displays the textual utterances on the other participants' devices in real time. The server uses the textual utterance data as input and provides feedback to the participants' devices as output.

[1267] 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.

[1268] This invention provides a system that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the progress of a meeting based on them by combining an emotion engine with a system that collects and classifies expert data, invites experts to online meetings, and provides real-time feedback. This system is realized by the server, terminals, users, and the emotion engine each playing a specific role.

[1269] System program processing

[1270] Master data collection

[1271] The server runs a program that collects data on the masters from the Internet, specifically using web scraping technology to obtain data such as their career histories, papers, books, and interview articles, and stores it in a database.

[1272] Data classification

[1273] The server uses natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to categorize the collected data by subject area, such as business, technology, medicine, energy, and other categories.

[1274] Enter a topic and search for experts

[1275] The user inputs a topic into a dedicated terminal. For example, the topic is "improving the manufacturing process of new materials." Based on this input, the server searches the database for relevant experts.

[1276] Selection and invitation of experts

[1277] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the device. For example, by clicking on "famous scientists in new materials," the server then sends an invitation to the selected expert via an online conference platform such as Zoom.

[1278] Real-time feedback and sentiment analysis

[1279] The device uses speech recognition technology to convert experts' comments into text in real time during the meeting and provide feedback to other participants. In addition, the emotion engine analyzes the emotional state of each user in real time during the meeting and sends the results to the server.

[1280] Specific examples

[1281] For example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[1282] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[1283] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[1284] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[1285] 4. The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected scientists.

[1286] 5. After the meeting starts, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and send that information to the server.

[1287] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[1288] This system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, invite the most suitable experts to the meeting, and analyze and provide feedback on the user's emotional state in real time, which will help meetings proceed more smoothly and enable more effective decision-making.

[1289] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1290] Step 1:

[1291] The server runs a web scraping program to collect data on the masters. Specifically, it automatically retrieves data about the masters, such as their biographies, papers, books, and interview articles, from specific URLs and stores them in a structured format in a database.

[1292] Step 2:

[1293] The server stores the collected data in a database. Specifically, it inserts the acquired text data into the database using SQL queries and organizes and stores it by expert.

[1294] Step 3:

[1295] The server uses natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to categorize the stored data by subject area, specifically by using topic modeling and clustering techniques to categorize the data into categories such as business, technology, medicine, and energy.

[1296] Step 4:

[1297] The user inputs the topic of the meeting through the interface of the dedicated terminal, for example, "improving the manufacturing process of new materials," and clicks the search button.

[1298] Step 5:

[1299] The server searches the database based on the topic entered by the user and lists relevant experts. Specifically, it queries the database with keywords related to the topic and extracts relevant experts.

[1300] Step 6:

[1301] The server sends a list of experts found in the search to the device, and specifically makes a call to display the names and areas of expertise of the listed experts on the user's device via the API.

[1302] Step 7:

[1303] The user selects the most appropriate expert from the displayed list of experts, for example, by clicking on "famous scientists on new materials."

[1304] Step 8:

[1305] The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected experts. Specifically, it uses Zoom's API to send an invitation email containing the date and time of the meeting and a link to the selected experts.

[1306] Step 9:

[1307] Once the meeting has started, the device will convert the speech of the expert into text in real time using speech recognition technology and provide feedback to other participants. Specifically, the device converts the speech data into text and automatically highlights and displays important points.

[1308] Step 10:

[1309] The emotion engine analyzes users' emotions in real time during meetings, using facial recognition technology and voice analysis to extract emotional data from users' facial expressions, tone of voice, and choice of words.

[1310] Step 11:

[1311] The server receives the emotion data from the emotion engine and provides feedback according to the user's emotional state. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the server sends a notification to the terminal to adjust the progress of the meeting.

[1312] Step 12:

[1313] The terminal receives notifications from the server and adjusts the progress of the meeting. Specifically, it displays a summary of questions to the expert and provides support to help the user understand the content.

[1314] Example 2

[1315] 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."

[1316] Conventional online conference systems make it difficult to efficiently search for and invite experts with specialized knowledge and provide real-time feedback during the meeting. Furthermore, there are no systems that recognize participants' emotional states during the meeting and optimize the progress of the meeting. As a result, the meeting may not proceed smoothly and decision-making may be delayed.

[1317] The identification process by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for collecting expert data, means for classifying the collected data by field of expertise, means for searching for the most suitable expert for the theme based on the classified data, means for inviting the expert selected based on the search results to an online conference, means for providing feedback of the expert's opinion during the conference in real time, and means for analyzing the emotional state of participants during the conference in real time and optimizing the progress of the conference based on the results. This makes it possible to efficiently search for and invite experts and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the conference.

[1318] "Master data" refers to all information about individuals with specialized knowledge and experience, including their career history, papers, books, interviews, etc.

[1319] "Collection methods" refers to the methods used to obtain data from the internet or other sources and store it in a database.

[1325] "Means for optimizing meeting progress" refers to methods for adjusting the schedule and content of meetings based on the results of sentiment analysis to help participants understand the content.

[1326] This invention provides a system that recognizes the user's emotions and optimizes the progress of a meeting based on them by combining an emotion engine with a system that collects and classifies expert data, invites experts to online meetings, and provides real-time feedback. This system is realized by the server, terminals, users, and the emotion engine each playing a specific role.

[1327] First, the server collects data about the masters from the Internet. Specifically, it uses web scraping technology. For example, it uses Python's BeautifulSoup or Scrapy to collect data such as the master's biography, papers, books, and interview articles, and temporarily stores that data in a cache such as Redis. This collected data is finally stored in a MySQL database.

[1328] The server then categorizes the collected data using natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, using services such as Google Cloud Natural Language API to organize the data into specialties such as business, technology, medicine, and energy. This results in the database containing data already categorized by speciality.

[1329] The user inputs a topic using a dedicated terminal. For example, they input the topic "improving the manufacturing process for new materials." Based on this input, the server searches the Elasticsearch database for relevant experts. As a result of the search, a list of relevant experts is displayed on the user's terminal.

[1330] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list. For example, they can select "famous scientists in new materials." Once the selection is complete, the server invites the expert to an online meeting using the Zoom API or Google Calendar API. This sends a meeting invitation to the selected expert.

[1331] During the meeting, the device converts the expert's speech into text in real time using speech recognition technology (e.g., Google Speech-to-Text API) and provides it as feedback to other participants. In addition, the emotion engine analyzes the emotional state of each user in the meeting in real time. This emotion analysis is performed using the Microsoft Azure Emotion API. The analysis results are sent to the server, which then sends notifications to adjust the progress of the meeting based on the emotion data.

[1332] As a concrete example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[1333] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[1334] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[1335] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on new materials.

[1336] 4. The server sends an invitation to the selected scientists to attend the online meeting.

[1337] 5. Once the meeting begins, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and sends that information to the server.

[1338] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[1339] Examples of prompt sentences include:

[1340] "Find experts on manufacturing process improvements for new materials."

[1341] "Use the real-time feedback feature to analyze what experts say during meetings and provide feedback to users."

[1342] In this way, the system can efficiently collect and classify expert data, identify and invite the most suitable experts, and optimize the progress based on feedback and emotions during the meeting.

[1434] User Roles

[1435] The user inputs the topic of the meeting into a dedicated terminal. For example, by entering a topic such as "processing methods for new materials," the process of searching for the most suitable expert related to that topic begins. The user then selects the most suitable expert from a list of experts displayed on the terminal. During the meeting, the user receives feedback provided in real time and adjusts the progress based on the results of sentiment analysis.

[1436] Examples of specific examples and prompts

[1437] As a concrete example, when planning a meeting to improve manufacturing methods for industrial products by making the most of the properties of new materials, the following steps are taken:

[1438] 1. The user types "improvement of manufacturing process for new material" into the terminal.

[1439] 2. The server searches the database for relevant experts, for example, a particular scientist or engineer.

[1440] 3. The user selects and selects the most suitable expert from the list, for example, a renowned scientist on a new material.

[1441] 4. The server sends a Zoom meeting invitation to the selected expert.

[1442] 5. After the meeting starts, the device records the expert's remarks in real time and provides feedback. In addition, the emotion engine uses facial recognition technology and voice analysis to recognize the user's emotional state and sends that information to the server.

[1443] 6. Based on the information from the emotion engine, the server sends a notification to adjust the progress of the meeting if the user's emotional stress is increasing. For example, it displays a summary of the expert's remarks and takes actions to help the user understand.

[1444] An example of a prompt is as follows:

[1445] "Collect and store expert data. Use web scraping technology to retrieve expert profiles, careers, papers, and interviews, and store them in a database."

[1446] This system makes it possible to efficiently collect and classify expert data, invite the most suitable experts to meetings, and analyze and provide feedback on the user's emotional state in real time, resulting in smoother meetings and more effective decision-making.

[1447] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1448] Step 1:

[1449] The server collects data on the masters. Based on the website URL list specified as input, it uses web scraping technology to obtain information such as the masters' careers, achievements, papers, and interview articles. The obtained data is stored in a database.

[1450] Step 2:

[1451] The server categorizes the collected data using natural language processing (NLP) algorithms. It takes as input the unclassified data in the database and categorizes each data into a specialized field, such as business, technology, medicine, or energy. The output is a classified dataset.

[1452] Step 3:

[1453] The user inputs the topic of the meeting into a dedicated terminal. The input is text information (e.g., "Processing method for new materials") that the user types into the terminal. The terminal then sends this input to the server.

[1454] Step 4:

[1455] The server searches the database for relevant experts based on the input topic. The input is the topic text submitted by the user, and the output is a list of relevant experts. The server searches the classification data in the database and selects the most suitable expert.

[1456] Step 5:

[1457] The user selects the most suitable expert from the list of experts displayed on the terminal. The input is the list of experts, and the expert information selected by the user is output. The selected expert is sent to the server.

[1458] Step 6:

[1459] The server sends online meeting invitations to the selected experts. The input is the experts' contact information and meeting details, and the output is the sent invitation. This uses the Zoom API or Microsoft Teams API.

[1460] Step 7:

[1461] After the conference begins, the device uses speech recognition technology to convert the expert's speech into text in real time. The input is the expert's speech data during the conference, and the output is the converted speech data. This data is immediately fed back to the other participants.

[1462] Step 8:

[1463] The device's sentiment analysis engine monitors the emotional state of participants in real time during a meeting. The input is the participants' video feeds and audio data, and the output is data representing their emotional state. This sentiment analysis is performed using libraries such as DeepFace.

[1464] Step 9:

[1465] The server optimizes the progress of the meeting based on the results of the sentiment analysis. The input is emotional state data, and the output is progress adjustments or notifications. For example, it may summarize and display the expert's comments or take actions to adjust the pace of the meeting. As a result, users can efficiently manage the progress of the meeting.

[1466] 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.

[1467] 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.

[1468] 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.

[1469] 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.

[1470] 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.

[1471] 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.

[1472] 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).

[1473] 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.

[1474] 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."

[1475] 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.

[1476] 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).

[1477] 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.

[1478] 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.

[1479] 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.

[1480] 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.

[1481] 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.

[1482] 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.

[1483] 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.

[1484] 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.
