[0124] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. 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."
[0125] In modern urban life, residents and visitors need to efficiently obtain a wide range of information to smoothly lead their daily lives. However, many currently available information systems are unable to provide information that fully takes into account the individual needs and circumstances of users, resulting in situations where users are unable to fully utilize the information. Furthermore, there is a lack of systems that efficiently provide real-time traffic and event information, making it difficult to quickly resolve the issues users face.
[0126] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.
[0127] In this invention, the server includes a means for receiving a question entered by a user, a means for analyzing the received question and collecting user profile data and real-time data from the city's infrastructure, and a means for generating optimal information for the user using a generation AI based on the collected data, thereby enabling the provision of optimal information according to the user's individual needs and situation.

[0138] "Event information" refers to data about events and occasions that a user can participate in, generated by the server based on the user's interests and schedule.
[0139] The system of this invention is an information provision system that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to support the daily lives of city residents and visitors. This system consists of a terminal used by the user and a server that collects and analyzes data.
[0140] First, the user accesses the system using a terminal. The terminal can be a smartphone, tablet, PC, or any other device that the user finds easy to use. The user enters their information, questions, current location, and destination into the terminal, and then sends it to the server.
[0141] The server uses the following hardware and software:
[0142] Hardware: High-performance servers, storage systems, network equipment
[0143] Software: Database management systems (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL), generative AI models (e.g., GPT-3, BERT), real-time data collection APIs (e.g., traffic information APIs, weather data APIs)
[0144] The specific system processes are as follows:
[0145] User Registration
[0146] Users use the terminal to enter information such as their name, age, interests, and daily routine.
[0147] The terminal sends this information to the server, which stores it in a database.
[0148] Real-time data collection
[0149] The server collects real-time data from city infrastructure, public services, and commercial facilities, specifically through traffic information APIs and weather data APIs.
[0150] The terminal receives the information required by the user in real time and displays it to the user.
[0151] Personalized information provision
[0152] The server uses a generative AI model based on the user's profile data to generate information that is optimal for the user.
[0153] The terminal displays the generated personalized information to the user.
[0154] Question-answering system
[0155] The user types a question into the terminal and sends it to the server, for example, "What's the weather like today?"
[0156] The server uses generative AI to generate answers in natural language and send them back to the device.
[0157] The device displays this answer to the user, for example, "Today's weather is sunny."
[0158] Commuting optimization
[0159] The user inputs their current location and destination into the terminal and sends them to the server.
[0160] The server analyzes real-time traffic information and generates the optimal commute route, for example, by using the Google Maps API to check traffic conditions.
[0161] The terminal displays the generated route to the user and provides route guidance.
[0162] Automatic event notification
[0163] The server generates optimal event information based on the user's interests and schedule.
[0164] The device will automatically send event notifications to users for quick reference, such as "The following events are recommended for you: XX Festival."
[0165] As a concrete example, if a user asks, "What restaurant do you recommend for lunch today?", the following prompt sentence is input to the generative AI model:
[0166] "Can you recommend a place for me to have lunch? I like Japanese food."
[0167] Or, in the case of commute optimization, the user types, "What is the best route to work?":
[0168] "What is the best route to commute from my current location to work?"
[0169] In this way, the present invention can provide optimal information and suggestions in real time in response to a wide range of user needs, thereby improving the quality of life of users.

[0440] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
[0441] Step 1:
[0442] The user uses the terminal to enter registration information (such as name, age, interests, and daily routine), which then inputs the user's basic information into the terminal.
[0443] The device sends these input data to the server. The input data (e.g., user's name, age, interests, etc.) is sent to the server.
[0444] The server stores the received information in a database and manages it as profile data. Specifically, it stores the information in a database (e.g., MySQL or PostgreSQL) as "User registration: name, age, interests, daily routine."
[0445] Step 2:
[0446] The server collects real-time data from city infrastructure, public services, and commercial facilities via API requests and sensor data acquisition.
[0447] Specifically, real-time data is collected through APIs (e.g., traffic conditions API, weather API) and managed using data aggregation software (e.g., Apache Kafka).
[0448] Based on the user's information request, the terminal receives the necessary real-time data from the server, which processes the data and sends it to the terminal.
[0449] Step 3:
[0450] The server generates optimal information using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI GPT-4) based on the user's profile data and emotion data obtained from the emotion engine.
[0451] Specifically, the profile data and emotion data are combined to generate a prompt sentence, which is then input into the generative AI model. For example, the prompt sentence might be, "What movie would you recommend to relax?"
[0452] The server uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the information obtained from the generative AI model and outputs it in the most optimal form for the user.
[0453] The device receives this information and displays it to the user. Specifically, it displays the message, "The movie recommended for you is 'Healing Forest.'"
[0454] Step 4:
[0455] The user types a question into the terminal and sends it to the server, for example, "What restaurant do you recommend for lunch today?"
[0456] The server analyzes the question and inputs it as a prompt to the generative AI, which uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the response.
[0457] The server generates a tailored response and sends it to the terminal, for example, tone-adjusted information such as "The restaurant we recommend for you is XX Cafe."
[0458] The terminal displays this response to the user.
[0459] Step 5:
[0460] The user inputs their current location and destination into the device and sends them to the server. For example, they input "current location: home, destination: office."
[0461] The server collects real-time traffic information (e.g., Google Maps API or Here API) and obtains current traffic situation data.
[0462] The server uses generative AI to calculate the optimal commute route based on the current location and destination information acquired, as well as the stress level acquired from the emotion engine, such as a "combination of trains and buses to avoid overcrowding."
[0463] The device will display the optimal commute route to the user, specifically, information such as "We recommend combining trains and buses."
[0464] Step 6:
[0465] The server generates event information based on the user's interests and emotional data, and uses the generation AI to input "events suitable for the user" as a prompt.
[0466] The server transmits the generated event information to the terminal.
[0467] The device will automatically display this notification to the user so that the user can see it immediately, such as "How about checking out the film festival this weekend?"

[0474] "Real-time data" means data that is collected immediately, without any particular time delay, and is used to provide up-to-date information.
[0475] "Generative AI" is a type of artificial intelligence, a model and system that uses large amounts of data to make predictions and recommendations.
[0476] "Emotional data" refers to data for identifying and analyzing the user's emotional state, including the user's current mood and stress level.
[0477] "Personalized product suggestions" refers to recommending products and services optimized for a specific user based on the user's profile data and emotional data.
[0478] "In-store navigation information" is information that provides guidance to specific locations or products within a physical store.
[0479] "Traffic information" includes information related to travel, such as road congestion and the operation status of public transportation.
[0480] "Event information" is information about events and activities selected based on the user's interests and schedule.
[0481] "Means for generating navigation information" refers to a system or algorithm that calculates and provides guidance on a route to a destination based on the user's current location and map information within the store.
[0482] The present invention is a support system for enabling users to comfortably carry out activities in urban areas. This system provides personalized product recommendations and navigation information based on the user's profile data and emotional data when the user visits a physical store. The components and processing of this system are outlined in detail below.

[0964] Step 1:
[0965] The user uses the terminal to enter registration information (such as name, age, interests, and daily routine), which then inputs the user's basic information into the terminal.
[0966] The device sends these input data to the server. The input data (e.g., user's name, age, interests, etc.) is sent to the server.
[0967] The server stores the received information in a database and manages it as profile data. Specifically, it stores the information in a database (e.g., MySQL or PostgreSQL) as "User registration: name, age, interests, daily routine."
[0968] Step 2:
[0969] The server collects real-time data from city infrastructure, public services, and commercial facilities via API requests and sensor data acquisition.
[0970] Specifically, real-time data is collected through APIs (e.g., traffic conditions API, weather API) and managed using data aggregation software (e.g., Apache Kafka).
[0971] Based on the user's information request, the terminal receives the necessary real-time data from the server, which processes the data and sends it to the terminal.
[0972] Step 3:
[0973] The server generates optimal information using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI GPT-4) based on the user's profile data and emotion data obtained from the emotion engine.
[0974] Specifically, the profile data and emotion data are combined to generate a prompt sentence, which is then input into the generative AI model. For example, the prompt sentence might be, "What movie would you recommend to relax?"
[0975] The server uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the information obtained from the generative AI model and outputs it in the most optimal form for the user.
[0976] The device receives this information and displays it to the user. Specifically, it displays the message, "The movie recommended for you is 'Healing Forest.'"
[0977] Step 4:
[0978] The user types a question into the terminal and sends it to the server, for example, "What restaurant do you recommend for lunch today?"
[0979] The server analyzes the question and inputs it as a prompt to the generative AI, which uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the response.
[0980] The server generates a tailored response and sends it to the terminal, for example, tone-adjusted information such as "The restaurant we recommend for you is XX Cafe."
[0981] The terminal displays this response to the user.
[0982] Step 5:
[0983] The user inputs their current location and destination into the device and sends them to the server. For example, they input "current location: home, destination: office."
[0984] The server collects real-time traffic information (e.g., Google Maps API or Here API) and obtains current traffic situation data.
[0985] The server uses generative AI to calculate the optimal commute route based on the current location and destination information acquired, as well as the stress level acquired from the emotion engine, such as a "combination of trains and buses to avoid overcrowding."
[0986] The device will display the optimal commute route to the user, specifically, information such as "We recommend combining trains and buses."
[0987] Step 6:
[0988] The server generates event information based on the user's interests and emotional data, and uses the generation AI to input "events suitable for the user" as a prompt.
[0989] The server transmits the generated event information to the terminal.
[0990] The device will automatically display this notification to the user so that the user can see it immediately, such as "How about checking out the film festival this weekend?"
[0991] (Application example 2)
[0992] 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."
[0993] In today's urban lifestyles, users are exposed to a wealth of information in their daily lives. However, it is difficult to obtain the necessary information in real time and utilize it appropriately in specific situations. Furthermore, systems that enable users to receive appropriate support tailored to their circumstances and interests in activities such as shopping, traveling, and participating in events are still rare. In particular, there are limited means of receiving personalized suggestions based on a user's profile and emotions when shopping in physical stores. Therefore, a solution is needed to improve users' shopping experience and enhance their physical store experience.
[0994] The identification processing by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for receiving a question entered by a user, means for analyzing the received question and collecting real-time data from the user's profile data and city infrastructure, means for generating optimal information for the user using a generation AI based on the collected data, means for providing the generated information to the user, means for collecting and analyzing user emotion data, means for generating personalized in-store product proposals using a generation AI based on the user's emotion data and profile data, means for providing the generated product proposals to the user, and means for generating in-store navigation information and providing it to the user.

[1004] "Means for generating navigation information" refers to a system or algorithm that calculates and provides guidance on a route to a destination based on the user's current location and map information within the store.
[1005] The present invention is a support system for enabling users to comfortably carry out activities in urban areas. This system provides personalized product recommendations and navigation information based on the user's profile data and emotional data when the user visits a physical store. The components and processing of this system are outlined in detail below.
[1006] Hardware and Software Configuration
[1007] Hardware
[1008] User terminal: A device that can be carried by the user, such as a smartphone or smart glasses.
[1009] Server: A back-end system for collecting and analyzing data and generating information using generative AI. A high-performance server is recommended.
[1010] software
[1011] User terminal application: Developed using React Native and Unity, it provides the user interface, data input, and display functions.
[1012] Server application: Built in Python (Flask), collects data, and runs the generative AI model. MongoDB is used as the database.
[1013] Generative AI and Emotion Engine: Uses OpenAI GPT-3 and Emotion API (Microsoft Azure) for natural language processing and sentiment analysis.
[1014] Data processing and calculation
[1015] Data collection and analysis
[1016] When a user inputs a question or their current mood through the application, the device sends the information to the server, which then collects the user's profile data and real-time data (such as product information in the store and traffic information), and simultaneously analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.
[1017] Generate personalized suggestions
[1018] Based on the collected data, the server uses a generative AI to generate information optimized for the user. The generative AI receives the user's profile data and emotional data as input and generates product suggestions and navigation information. At this time, the generative AI model is input with a prompt sentence such as the following:
[1019] Specific examples
[1020] For example, if a user is shopping because they want to relax, the app will suggest items such as "relaxing aroma products" or "comfortable loungewear."
[1021] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1022] Below is an example of a prompt sentence to input to the generative AI model.
[1023] The user's current mood is "Relaxation." The user's interests are "Fashion" and "Electronics." Generate the best product list for the user based on the following product data:
[1024] Product data:
[1025] 1. Aroma Diffuser - Price: 3000 yen - Section: Health
[1026] 2. Bluetooth Earphones - Price: 15,000 yen - Section: Electronics
[1027] 3. Sweatpants - Price: 5,000 yen - Category: Fashion
[1028] In this way, the server combines the user's emotions and profile data to make personalized suggestions to improve the shopping experience in the physical store. The generated information is sent to the user's terminal in real time and provided for the user to use effectively.
[1029] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[1030] Step 1:
[1031] Collecting user-entered questions and sentiment information
[1032] The user uses the device to input questions and their current mood into the application. Specifically, they input questions and opinions such as "What products do you recommend today?" or "Please tell me about items that help me relax" through an input form on the device. This input information is then sent by the device to the server.
[1033] Input: Questions and emotional information entered by the user
[1034] Output: Data sent by the device to the server
[1035] Step 2:
[1036] User profile and real-time data collection
[1037] The server retrieves user profile data (such as name, age, interests, and daily routines) from a database, and simultaneously collects real-time data from city infrastructure and physical stores (such as product inventory and promotion information).
[1038] Input: User profile data request, City infrastructure data request
[1039] Output: Profile data, city infrastructure data
[1040] Step 3:
[1041] Emotional Data Analysis
[1042] The server uses the Emotion API to analyze the emotional information entered by the user and determine the user's current emotional state. Specifically, it analyzes the entered text data and classifies it into emotional categories such as "relaxed," "excited," and "sad."
[1043] Input: User's emotional information
[1044] Output: Emotion data (e.g., Relaxed)
[1045] Step 4:
[1046] Generate personalized product recommendations
[1047] The server uses a generative AI model (GPT-3) based on the collected profile data, emotion data, and real-time data to generate optimal product suggestions for the user. At this time, the server inputs the following prompt sentence into the generative AI model to generate product suggestions.
[1048] Input: Profile data, emotion data, real-time data, prompts
[1049] Output: Personalized product recommendations
[1050] Example prompt sentence:

[1487] Step 1:
[1488] The user uses the terminal to enter registration information (such as name, age, interests, and daily routine), which then inputs the user's basic information into the terminal.
[1489] The device sends these input data to the server. The input data (e.g., user's name, age, interests, etc.) is sent to the server.
[1490] The server stores the received information in a database and manages it as profile data. Specifically, it stores the information in a database (e.g., MySQL or PostgreSQL) as "User registration: name, age, interests, daily routine."
[1491] Step 2:
[1492] The server collects real-time data from city infrastructure, public services, and commercial facilities via API requests and sensor data acquisition.
[1493] Specifically, real-time data is collected through APIs (e.g., traffic conditions API, weather API) and managed using data aggregation software (e.g., Apache Kafka).
[1494] Based on the user's information request, the terminal receives the necessary real-time data from the server, which processes the data and sends it to the terminal.
[1495] Step 3:
[1496] The server generates optimal information using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI GPT-4) based on the user's profile data and emotion data obtained from the emotion engine.
[1497] Specifically, the profile data and emotion data are combined to generate a prompt sentence, which is then input into the generative AI model. For example, the prompt sentence might be, "What movie would you recommend to relax?"
[1498] The server uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the information obtained from the generative AI model and outputs it in the most optimal form for the user.
[1499] The device receives this information and displays it to the user. Specifically, it displays the message, "The movie recommended for you is 'Healing Forest.'"
[1500] Step 4:
[1501] The user types a question into the terminal and sends it to the server, for example, "What restaurant do you recommend for lunch today?"
[1502] The server analyzes the question and inputs it as a prompt to the generative AI, which uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the response.
[1503] The server generates a tailored response and sends it to the terminal, for example, tone-adjusted information such as "The restaurant we recommend for you is XX Cafe."

[1537] Data processing and calculation
[1538] Data collection and analysis
[1539] When a user inputs a question or their current mood through the application, the device sends the information to the server, which then collects the user's profile data and real-time data (such as product information in the store and traffic information), and simultaneously analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.
[1540] Generate personalized suggestions
[1541] Based on the collected data, the server uses a generative AI to generate information optimized for the user. The generative AI receives the user's profile data and emotional data as input and generates product suggestions and navigation information. At this time, the generative AI model is input with a prompt sentence such as the following:
[1542] Specific examples
[1543] For example, if a user is shopping because they want to relax, the app will suggest items such as "relaxing aroma products" or "comfortable loungewear."
[1544] Prompt Sentence Examples
[1545] Below is an example of a prompt sentence to input to the generative AI model.
[1546] The user's current mood is "Relaxation." The user's interests are "Fashion" and "Electronics." Generate the best product list for the user based on the following product data:

[1549] 2. Bluetooth Earphones - Price: 15,000 yen - Section: Electronics
[1550] 3. Sweatpants - Price: 5,000 yen - Category: Fashion
[1551] In this way, the server combines the user's emotions and profile data to make personalized suggestions to improve the shopping experience in the physical store. The generated information is sent to the user's terminal in real time and provided for the user to use effectively.
[1552] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[1553] Step 1:
[1554] Collecting user-entered questions and sentiment information
[1555] The user uses the device to input questions and their current mood into the application. Specifically, they input questions and opinions such as "What products do you recommend today?" or "Please tell me about items that help me relax" through an input form on the device. This input information is then sent by the device to the server.
[1556] Input: Questions and emotional information entered by the user
[1557] Output: Data sent by the device to the server
[1558] Step 2:
[1559] User profile and real-time data collection

[1561] Input: User profile data request, City infrastructure data request
[1562] Output: Profile data, city infrastructure data
[1563] Step 3:
[1564] Emotional Data Analysis
[1565] The server uses the Emotion API to analyze the emotional information entered by the user and determine the user's current emotional state. Specifically, it analyzes the entered text data and classifies it into emotional categories such as "relaxed," "excited," and "sad."
[1566] Input: User's emotional information
[1567] Output: Emotion data (e.g., Relaxed)
[1568] Step 4:
[1569] Generate personalized product recommendations
[1570] The server uses a generative AI model (GPT-3) based on the collected profile data, emotion data, and real-time data to generate optimal product suggestions for the user. At this time, the server inputs the following prompt sentence into the generative AI model to generate product suggestions.
[1571] Input: Profile data, emotion data, real-time data, prompts
[1572] Output: Personalized product recommendations
[1573] Example prompt sentence:
[1574] The user's current mood is "Relaxation." The user's interests are "Fashion" and "Electronics." Generate the best product list for the user based on the following product data:
[1575] Product data:
[1576] 1. Aroma Diffuser - Price: 3000 yen - Section: Health
[1577] 2. Bluetooth Earphones - Price: 15,000 yen - Section: Electronics
[1578] 3. Sweatpants - Price: 5,000 yen - Category: Fashion
[1579] Step 5:
[1580] Sending and displaying generated information
[1581] The server generates personalized product suggestions and sends them to the user's device in real time. The device receives this information and displays it in a user-friendly format. Specifically, the device displays a list of product suggestions on the application's user interface.
[1582] Input: Personalized product suggestions
[1583] Output: Suggestion information displayed in the user interface
[1584] Step 6:
[1585] Generate and provide in-store navigation information
[1586] When a user selects a specific product, the server uses the store's map data to generate navigation information to the desired product, which is also sent in real time to the user's device, which then displays the navigation information to the user.
[1587] Input: Selected product information, store map data
[1588] Output: In-store navigation information
[1589] This allows users to receive product suggestions and navigation in real time that are tailored to their interests and emotions.
[1590] 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.
[1591] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence).

[2010] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
[2011] Step 1:
[2012] The user uses the terminal to enter registration information (such as name, age, interests, and daily routine), which then inputs the user's basic information into the terminal.
[2013] The device sends these input data to the server. The input data (e.g., user's name, age, interests, etc.) is sent to the server.
[2014] The server stores the received information in a database and manages it as profile data. Specifically, it stores the information in a database (e.g., MySQL or PostgreSQL) as "User registration: name, age, interests, daily routine."
[2015] Step 2:
[2016] The server collects real-time data from city infrastructure, public services, and commercial facilities via API requests and sensor data acquisition.
[2017] Specifically, real-time data is collected through APIs (e.g., traffic conditions API, weather API) and managed using data aggregation software (e.g., Apache Kafka).
[2018] Based on the user's information request, the terminal receives the necessary real-time data from the server, which processes the data and sends it to the terminal.
[2019] Step 3:
[2020] The server generates optimal information using a generative AI model (e.g., OpenAI GPT-4) based on the user's profile data and emotion data obtained from the emotion engine.
[2021] Specifically, the profile data and emotion data are combined to generate a prompt sentence, which is then input into the generative AI model. For example, the prompt sentence might be, "What movie would you recommend to relax?"
[2022] The server uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the information obtained from the generative AI model and outputs it in the most optimal form for the user.
[2023] The device receives this information and displays it to the user. Specifically, it displays the message, "The movie recommended for you is 'Healing Forest.'"
[2024] Step 4:
[2025] The user types a question into the terminal and sends it to the server, for example, "What restaurant do you recommend for lunch today?"
[2026] The server analyzes the question and inputs it as a prompt to the generative AI, which uses an emotion engine to adjust the tone of the response.
[2027] The server generates a tailored response and sends it to the terminal, for example, tone-adjusted information such as "The restaurant we recommend for you is XX Cafe."
[2028] The terminal displays this response to the user.
[2029] Step 5:
[2030] The user inputs their current location and destination into the device and sends them to the server. For example, they input "current location: home, destination: office."
[2031] The server collects real-time traffic information (e.g., Google Maps API or Here API) and obtains current traffic situation data.
[2032] The server uses generative AI to calculate the optimal commute route based on the current location and destination information acquired, as well as the stress level acquired from the emotion engine, such as a "combination of trains and buses to avoid overcrowding."
[2033] The device will display the optimal commute route to the user, specifically, information such as "We recommend combining trains and buses."
[2034] Step 6:
[2035] The server generates event information based on the user's interests and emotional data, and uses the generation AI to input "events suitable for the user" as a prompt.
[2036] The server transmits the generated event information to the terminal.
[2037] The device will automatically display this notification to the user so that the user can see it immediately, such as "How about checking out the film festival this weekend?"
[2038] (Application example 2)
[2039] 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."
[2040] In today's urban lifestyles, users are exposed to a wealth of information in their daily lives. However, it is difficult to obtain the necessary information in real time and utilize it appropriately in specific situations. Furthermore, systems that enable users to receive appropriate support tailored to their circumstances and interests in activities such as shopping, traveling, and participating in events are still rare. In particular, there are limited means of receiving personalized suggestions based on a user's profile and emotions when shopping in physical stores. Therefore, a solution is needed to improve users' shopping experience and enhance their physical store experience.
[2041] The identification processing by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in Application Example 2 is realized by the following means. In this invention, the server includes means for receiving a question entered by a user, means for analyzing the received question and collecting real-time data from the user's profile data and city infrastructure, means for generating optimal information for the user using a generation AI based on the collected data, means for providing the generated information to the user, means for collecting and analyzing user emotion data, means for generating personalized in-store product proposals using a generation AI based on the user's emotion data and profile data, means for providing the generated product proposals to the user, and means for generating in-store navigation information and providing it to the user. This enables the user to receive product proposals and navigation in real time that match their interests and emotions.
[2042] "User profile data" refers to data that indicates attributes and information about a user, including, for example, name, age, interests, daily routines, and the like.
[2043] "Urban infrastructure" refers to the infrastructure systems within an urban environment, such as transportation networks, public facilities, power supplies, and water supplies.
[2044] "Real-time data" means data that is collected immediately, without any particular time delay, and is used to provide up-to-date information.
[2045] "Generative AI" is a type of artificial intelligence, a model and system that uses large amounts of data to make predictions and recommendations.
[2046] "Emotional data" refers to data for identifying and analyzing the user's emotional state, including the user's current mood and stress level.
[2047] "Personalized product suggestions" refers to recommending products and services optimized for a specific user based on the user's profile data and emotional data.
[2048] "In-store navigation information" is information that provides guidance to specific locations or products within a physical store.
[2049] "Traffic information" includes information related to travel, such as road congestion and the operation status of public transportation.
[2050] "Event information" is information about events and activities selected based on the user's interests and schedule.
[2051] "Means for generating navigation information" refers to a system or algorithm that calculates and provides guidance on a route to a destination based on the user's current location and map information within the store.
[2052] The present invention is a support system for enabling users to comfortably carry out activities in urban areas. This system provides personalized product recommendations and navigation information based on the user's profile data and emotional data when the user visits a physical store. The components and processing of this system are outlined in detail below.
[2053] Hardware and Software Configuration
[2054] Hardware
[2055] User terminal: A device that can be carried by the user, such as a smartphone or smart glasses.
[2056] Server: A back-end system for collecting and analyzing data and generating information using generative AI. A high-performance server is recommended.
[2057] software
[2058] User terminal application: Developed using React Native and Unity, it provides the user interface, data input, and display functions.
[2059] Server application: Built in Python (Flask), collects data, and runs the generative AI model. MongoDB is used as the database.
[2060] Generative AI and Emotion Engine: Uses OpenAI GPT-3 and Emotion API (Microsoft Azure) for natural language processing and sentiment analysis.
[2061] Data processing and calculation
[2062] Data collection and analysis
[2063] When a user inputs a question or their current mood through the application, the device sends the information to the server, which then collects the user's profile data and real-time data (such as product information in the store and traffic information), and simultaneously analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.
[2064] Generate personalized suggestions
[2065] Based on the collected data, the server uses a generative AI to generate information optimized for the user. The generative AI receives the user's profile data and emotional data as input and generates product suggestions and navigation information. At this time, the generative AI model is input with a prompt sentence such as the following:
[2066] Specific examples
[2067] For example, if a user is shopping because they want to relax, the app will suggest items such as "relaxing aroma products" or "comfortable loungewear."
[2068] Prompt Sentence Examples
[2069] Below is an example of a prompt sentence to input to the generative AI model.
[2070] The user's current mood is "Relaxation." The user's interests are "Fashion" and "Electronics." Generate the best product list for the user based on the following product data:
[2071] Product data:
[2072] 1. Aroma Diffuser - Price: 3000 yen - Section: Health
[2073] 2. Bluetooth Earphones - Price: 15,000 yen - Section: Electronics
[2074] 3. Sweatpants - Price: 5,000 yen - Category: Fashion
[2075] In this way, the server combines the user's emotions and profile data to make personalized suggestions to improve the shopping experience in the physical store. The generated information is sent to the user's terminal in real time and provided for the user to use effectively.
[2076] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
[2077] Step 1:
[2078] Collecting user-entered questions and sentiment information
[2079] The user uses the device to input questions and their current mood into the application. Specifically, they input questions and opinions such as "What products do you recommend today?" or "Please tell me about items that help me relax" through an input form on the device. This input information is then sent by the device to the server.
[2080] Input: Questions and emotional information entered by the user
[2081] Output: Data sent by the device to the server
[2082] Step 2:
[2083] User profile and real-time data collection
[2084] The server retrieves user profile data (such as name, age, interests, and daily routines) from a database, and simultaneously collects real-time data from city infrastructure and physical stores (such as product inventory and promotion information).
[2085] Input: User profile data request, City infrastructure data request
[2086] Output: Profile data, city infrastructure data
[2087] Step 3:
[2088] Emotional Data Analysis
[2089] The server uses the Emotion API to analyze the emotional information entered by the user and determine the user's current emotional state. Specifically, it analyzes the entered text data and classifies it into emotional categories such as "relaxed," "excited," and "sad."
[2090] Input: User's emotional information
[2091] Output: Emotion data (e.g., Relaxed)
[2092] Step 4:
[2093] Generate personalized product recommendations
[2094] The server uses a generative AI model (GPT-3) based on the collected profile data, emotion data, and real-time data to generate optimal product suggestions for the user. At this time, the server inputs the following prompt sentence into the generative AI model to generate product suggestions.
[2095] Input: Profile data, emotion data, real-time data, prompts
[2096] Output: Personalized product recommendations
[2097] Example prompt sentence:
[2098] The user's current mood is "Relaxation." The user's interests are "Fashion" and "Electronics." Generate the best product list for the user based on the product data below.
[2099] Product data:
[2100] 1. Aroma Diffuser - Price: 3000 yen - Section: Health
[2101] 2. Bluetooth Earphones - Price: 15,000 yen - Section: Electronics
[2102] 3. Sweatpants - Price: 5,000 yen - Category: Fashion
[2103] Step 5:
[2104] Sending and displaying generated information
[2105] The server generates personalized product suggestions and sends them to the user's device in real time. The device receives this information and displays it in a user-friendly format. Specifically, the device displays a list of product suggestions on the application's user interface.
[2106] Input: Personalized product suggestions
[2107] Output: Suggestion information displayed in the user interface
[2108] Step 6:
[2109] Generate and provide in-store navigation information
[2110] When a user selects a specific product, the server uses the store's map data to generate navigation information to the desired product, which is also sent in real time to the user's device, which then displays the navigation information to the user.
[2111] Input: Selected product information, store map data
[2112] Output: In-store navigation information
[2113] This allows users to receive product suggestions and navigation in real time that are tailored to their interests and emotions.
[2114] 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.
[2115] 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.
[2116] 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.
[2117] 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.
[2118] 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.
[2119] 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.
[2120] 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).
[2121] 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.
[2122] 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."
[2123] 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.
[2124] 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).
[2125] 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.
[2126] 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.
[2127] 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.
[2128] 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.
[2129] 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.
[2130] 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.
[2131] 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.
[2132] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[2133] The above-described description and illustrations are a detailed explanation of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure and are merely an example of the technology of the present disclosure. For example, the above description of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects is an explanation of an example of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replacements may be made to the above-described description and illustrations within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the above-described description and illustrations omit explanations of common technical knowledge that do not require particular explanation to enable the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
