[0028] (Example 1) In the automatic operation system according to the embodiment of the present invention, a generation AI analyzes screenshot videos, learns user operations, and automatically reproduces those operations as mouse operations and keyboard operations. This allows the automatic operation system to automatically reproduce the user's operations and improve work efficiency.
[0029] An automatic operation system according to an embodiment includes a video analysis unit, a learning unit, and an automatic operation unit. The video analysis unit analyzes a screenshot video. For example, the video analysis unit analyzes each frame to identify the operation the user is performing. The video analysis unit can also recognize objects in the video using image recognition technology. For example, the video analysis unit recognizes objects such as buttons and text fields and tracks their changes. The learning unit learns the user's operations from the screenshot video analyzed by the video analysis unit. For example, the learning unit memorizes the user's operation patterns and procedures and builds a model for reproducing similar operations. The learning unit can also learn the user's operation patterns using a machine learning algorithm. For example, the learning unit learns the user's operations of moving the mouse in a specific order and pressing specific keys. The automatic operation unit automatically performs mouse operations and keyboard operations based on the operations learned by the learning unit. For example, the automatic operation unit moves the mouse and presses keys according to the learned operation procedures. The automatic operation unit can also monitor the success rate and error rate of operations in real time and correct operations as necessary. For example, the automatic operation unit determines whether the operation was successful and corrects any errors that occur. This allows the automatic operation system according to the embodiment to automatically reproduce the user's work, thereby improving work efficiency. For example, the user can leave the work to the generation AI without the intervention of a program. Furthermore, the generation AI can automatically upload an Excel image link to a web page. For example, the generation AI opens an Excel file, copies the image link, opens a web browser, accesses the specified web page, clicks a button to upload the image link, pastes the image link, and clicks a button to complete the upload.
[0030] The video analysis unit can recognize specific objects within a video and track changes in those objects. For example, the generative AI can recognize specific buttons or text fields within a video and track changes in those objects. For example, it can perform detailed analysis of the position of the button the user clicked or the content of the text they entered. This allows for more accurate analysis of user operations.
[0031] The video analysis unit can improve the accuracy of analysis by simultaneously using the user's gaze tracking data when analyzing the video to identify the part the user is focusing on. For example, the video analysis unit collects gaze tracking data at the same time as analyzing the video to identify the part the user is focusing on. For example, it analyzes which part of the screen the user is looking at and focuses on analyzing the operation of that part. This identifies the part the user is focusing on and improves the accuracy of analysis.
[0032] The video analysis unit enables video analysis of screenshots on different devices, achieving multi-device compatibility. For example, the video analysis unit enables video analysis of screenshots on smartphones and tablets. For example, it analyzes smartphone screen operations and identifies user operations. This allows video analysis of screenshots on different devices.
[0033] The video analysis unit can add an interactive guide function that provides feedback on the results of the video analysis to the user in real time and helps optimize operations. The video analysis unit, for example, provides feedback on the results of the video analysis to the user in real time and helps optimize operations. For example, it evaluates the accuracy and efficiency of operations performed by the user in real time. This makes it possible to provide an interactive guide function that helps optimize operations.
[0034] When learning a user's operation patterns, the learning unit can refer to past operation history and analyze the consistency and changes in operations. For example, the generation AI of the learning unit refers to the user's past operation history and analyzes the consistency and changes in operation patterns. For example, it analyzes whether the user is repeating the same operation or performing different operations. This makes it possible to refer to past operation history and analyze the consistency and changes in operations.
[0035] The learning unit can evaluate the user's operation speed and accuracy during the learning process and propose optimal operation procedures. For example, the learning unit uses a generation AI to evaluate the user's operation speed and accuracy and propose optimal operation procedures. For example, it prioritizes learning procedures that allow the user to operate quickly and accurately. This makes it possible to evaluate the user's operation speed and accuracy and propose optimal operation procedures.
[0036] The learning unit can compare operation patterns of different users, extract common operation procedures, and build a general-purpose operation model. The learning unit, for example, compares operation patterns of different users and extracts common operation procedures. For example, when multiple users perform the same operation, the learning unit builds the procedure as a general-purpose operation model. This makes it possible to compare operation patterns of different users, extract common operation procedures, and build a general-purpose operation model.
[0037] The learning unit can generalize the operation model so that the learned operation procedures can be applied to other applications and systems. For example, the learning unit generalizes the operation model so that the learned operation procedures can be applied to other applications and systems. For example, the learning unit applies the operation procedures learned in Excel to other spreadsheet applications. This allows the operation model to be generalized so that the learned operation procedures can be applied to other applications and systems.
[0038] The automatic operation unit monitors the success rate and error rate of the operation in real time when the generation AI executes an automatic operation, and can correct the operation as necessary.The automatic operation unit monitors the success rate and error rate of the operation in real time when the generation AI executes an automatic operation, for example, by determining whether the operation was successful and correcting any errors that occur.This makes it possible to monitor the success rate and error rate of the operation in real time and correct the operation as necessary.
[0039] The automatic operation unit can collect user feedback while the automatic operation is being performed, and continuously improve the accuracy and efficiency of the operation. For example, the automatic operation unit can collect user feedback while the automatic operation is being performed, and continuously improve the accuracy and efficiency of the operation. For example, the automatic operation unit can evaluate whether the user is satisfied with the result of the operation. This allows the automatic operation unit to collect user feedback and continuously improve the accuracy and efficiency of the operation.
[0040] The automatic operation unit can extend the operation model so that the execution of automatic operations can be applied to different applications and systems. The automatic operation unit extends the operation model so that the execution of automatic operations can be applied to different applications and systems, for example. For example, the operation procedures learned in Excel can be applied to other spreadsheet applications. This allows the operation model to be extended so that the execution of automatic operations can be applied to different applications and systems.
[0041] The automatic operation unit can visualize the results of the automatic operation, allowing the user to intuitively understand the progress of the operation. The automatic operation unit, for example, visualizes the results of the automatic operation, allowing the user to intuitively understand the progress of the operation. For example, the progress of the operation is displayed in a graph or chart. This visualizes the results of the automatic operation, allowing the user to intuitively understand the progress of the operation.
[0042] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0043] The automatic operation system may further include a voice recognition unit. The voice recognition unit analyzes a user's voice commands and executes a specific operation. For example, if a user says "open a file," the voice recognition unit analyzes the command and executes the corresponding operation. The voice recognition unit may also learn the user's voice commands to achieve more accurate voice recognition. This allows the user to operate the system more intuitively using voice commands.
[0044] The automatic operation system may further include a gesture recognition unit. The gesture recognition unit analyzes the user's hand movements and executes a specific operation. For example, when the user waves their hand, the gesture recognition unit analyzes the movement and executes the corresponding operation. The gesture recognition unit may also learn the user's gestures and achieve more accurate gesture recognition. This allows the user to operate the system more intuitively using hand movements.
[0045] The automatic operation system may further include an environment recognition unit. The environment recognition unit analyzes the user's surrounding environment and executes specific operations. For example, if the user is in a dark room, the environment recognition unit analyzes the environment and automatically adjusts the screen brightness. The environment recognition unit may also analyze the sounds around the user and provide a noise cancellation function. This allows the user to operate the system in a comfortable environment.
[0046] The automatic operation system may further include an efficiency suggestion unit that analyzes the user's operation history and makes suggestions to improve operation efficiency. The efficiency suggestion unit analyzes the user's operation history and suggests efficient operation procedures. For example, it may suggest automating operations that the user frequently performs. The efficiency suggestion unit may also learn the user's operation patterns and make more appropriate efficiency suggestions. This allows the user to receive suggestions to improve operation efficiency.
[0047] The automatic operation system may further include an error prevention suggestion unit that detects user operation errors and makes suggestions to prevent the errors. The error prevention suggestion unit analyzes the user's operation history and identifies patterns of operation errors. For example, if the user frequently makes errors in a specific operation, it makes suggestions to simplify that operation. The error prevention suggestion unit can also learn the user's operation patterns and make more appropriate error prevention suggestions. This allows the user to receive suggestions to prevent operation errors.
[0048] The automatic operation system can further include a customization suggestion unit that analyzes the user's operation patterns and suggests customization of the operation. The customization suggestion unit analyzes the user's operation patterns and suggests the optimal operation procedure for each individual user. For example, it may preferentially suggest the user's preferred operation method. The customization suggestion unit can also learn the user's operation patterns and make more appropriate customization suggestions. This allows the user to receive suggestions for the optimal operation procedure for themselves.
[0049] The automatic operation system can further include an environment optimization unit that analyzes the user's operation environment and optimizes operation according to the environment. The environment optimization unit analyzes the user's operation environment and proposes appropriate operation procedures. For example, if the user is in a noisy environment, it proposes to avoid voice input. The environment optimization unit can also learn changes in the user's operation environment and propose more appropriate environment optimization. This allows the user to receive proposals for optimal operation procedures according to the operation environment.
[0050] The automatic operation system can further include a prediction unit that predicts operations based on the user's operation history. The prediction unit analyzes the user's operation history and predicts the next operation. For example, it predicts operations that the user will frequently perform after performing a specific operation and prepares those operations in advance. The prediction unit can also learn the user's operation patterns and predict operations with higher accuracy. This allows the user's next operation to be predicted, allowing them to proceed with operations smoothly.
[0051] The processing flow of the first embodiment will be briefly explained below.

[0089] Step 1: The video analyzer analyzes the video of the screenshot. For example, the video analyzer analyzes each frame to identify the operation the user is performing. The video analyzer can also use image recognition technology to recognize objects in the video. For example, the video analyzer recognizes objects such as buttons and text fields and tracks their changes. Step 2: The learning unit learns the user's operations from the screenshot video analyzed by the video analysis unit. For example, the learning unit memorizes the user's operation patterns and procedures and builds a model to reproduce similar operations. The learning unit can also use machine learning algorithms to learn the user's operation patterns. For example, the learning unit learns the user's operations of moving the mouse in a specific order and pressing specific keys. Step 3: The automatic operation unit automatically performs mouse and keyboard operations based on the tasks learned by the learning unit. For example, the automatic operation unit moves the mouse and presses keys according to the learned operating procedure.

In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.
[0137] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of the data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 receives a prompt containing an instruction, as well as inference data such as voice data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing an image. 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. The identification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned identification processing using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model so as to output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. In this case, the data generation model 58 can output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. The data processing device 12 and the like include multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AIs other than the generative AI. The AI other than the generative AI may be, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural network (CNN), recurrent neural network (RNN), generative adversarial network (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. The AI may also be an AI agent. When the processes of each of the above-mentioned parts are performed by AI, the processes may be performed in part or entirely by AI, but are not limited to these examples. The processes performed by AI, including the generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processes.
[0138] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but may also be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. Furthermore, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information required for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, etc., and the robot 414 acquires or collects information required for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device, etc.
[0139] 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.
[0140] FIG. 9 illustrates an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and behaviors arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion encompasses both emotions and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[0141] 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.
[0142] 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).
[0143] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on speech emotion recognition and brain physiological signal analysis systems for emotions, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "reaction," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.
[0144] 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."
[0145] 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.
[0146] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by one computer 22, but the technology disclosed herein is not limited to this, and distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers including computer 22.
[0147] 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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] 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.
[0150] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following types of processors: A processor, for example, 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. A processor also includes 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.
[0151] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific process may be a single processor.
[0152] 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.
