[0028] (Example 1) The music generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention analyzes the structure of classical music and generates new music that blends it with modern pop culture. This allows the music generation system to generate new music that blends classical music with modern music culture, reconstruct the value of classical music, and pass on its greatness to the next generation.
[0029] A music generation system according to an embodiment includes a classical music structure analysis unit, a contemporary music feature analysis unit, and a music generation unit. The classical music structure analysis unit analyzes the structure of classical music. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit analyzes music such as Beethoven's symphonies and Mozart's sonatas to extract elements such as melody, harmony, rhythm, and instrumentation. The classical music structure analysis unit also analyzes the structure of music in detail using a fine-tuned AI model. The contemporary music feature analysis unit analyzes the features of contemporary music. For example, the contemporary music feature analysis unit analyzes music in genres such as pop, rock, and hip-hop to understand contemporary music trends and styles. The contemporary music feature analysis unit also uses AI to receive contemporary music data as input and analyze its features. The music generation unit generates new music by combining the classical music structure analyzed by the classical music structure analysis unit with the features of contemporary music analyzed by the contemporary music feature analysis unit. For example, the music generation unit may combine classical melodies with pop rhythms or orchestral arrangements with electronic sounds. Furthermore, the music generation unit creates fusion music based on prompts, including instructions from the user. This allows the music generation system according to the embodiment to generate new music that combines classical music with modern music culture.
[0030] The classical music structure analysis unit can extract elements by taking into account the historical background of a piece of music and the composer's intentions. For example, when analyzing Beethoven's symphonies, the classical music structure analysis unit takes into account Beethoven's life and historical background to understand the intentions behind the melody and harmony of the piece. For example, it analyzes the "Fate" motive in Symphony No. 5. When analyzing Mozart's sonatas, the classical music structure analysis unit takes into account Mozart's compositional style and the music theory of the time to perform a detailed analysis of the piece's structure. For example, it extracts characteristics of the development section in sonata form. When analyzing Chopin's nocturnes, the classical music structure analysis unit takes into account Chopin's emotional expression and piano technique to understand the intentions behind the rhythm and dynamics of the piece. For example, it analyzes the ornaments in Nocturne No. 2. This allows the AI to extract elements by taking into account the historical background of the piece and the composer's intentions.
[0031] The classical music structure analysis unit can compare performance data of the same piece by different performers and analyze differences in performance style. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit compares performance data of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 by multiple conductors and analyzes differences in tempo and dynamics. For example, comparing performances by Karajan and Bernstein. The classical music structure analysis unit also compares performance data of Bach's Goldberg Variations by different pianists and analyzes differences in ornamentation and phrasing. For example, comparing performances by Gould and Perahia. The classical music structure analysis unit also compares performance data of Mozart's Piano Concerto by multiple orchestras and analyzes differences in orchestral arrangement and articulation. For example, comparing performances by the Vienna Philharmonic and the Berlin Philharmonic. This makes it possible to analyze differences in performance style of the same piece by different performers.
[0032] The classical music structure analysis section can be combined with structural analysis of other art forms to identify commonalities between different art forms. For example, the classical music structure analysis section compares the structure of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 with contemporary paintings (such as Turner's landscapes) to identify common themes and expressive techniques. For example, it analyzes the repetition of motifs and color contrasts. The classical music structure analysis section also compares the structure of Chopin's nocturnes with contemporary literary works (such as Balzac's novels) to identify common emotional expressions and elements. For example, it analyzes emotional ups and downs and narrative development. The classical music structure analysis section also compares the structure of Mozart's operas with contemporary plays (such as Shakespeare's plays) to identify common dramatic elements and character portrayals. For example, it compares arias and monologues. This allows for the identification of commonalities between different art forms.
[0033] The classical music structure analysis unit can be used as interactive educational materials to help students visually understand the structure of a piece of music. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit could visualize the structure of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 and develop teaching materials that allow students to interactively learn each part of the piece. For example, the themes and motives of each movement could be displayed color-coded. The classical music structure analysis unit could also visualize Mozart's sonata form and develop teaching materials that allow students to interactively learn the development and recapitulation sections of a piece of music. For example, the role and characteristics of each part could be shown using animation. The classical music structure analysis unit could also visualize the structure of Chopin's etudes and develop teaching materials that allow students to interactively learn technical elements and emotional expression. For example, fingering and dynamic changes could be displayed in graphs. This allows students to visually understand the structure of a piece of music.
[0034] The contemporary music feature analysis unit can incorporate social media trends or user feedback in real time. For example, when the AI analyzes pop music trends, it collects hashtag data from Twitter and Instagram in real time to reflect the latest trends. For example, it identifies popular artists and songs. When the AI analyzes hip-hop trends, it collects YouTube comments and play count data in real time to reflect user feedback. For example, it identifies lyrical themes and beat characteristics. When the AI analyzes rock music trends, it collects Spotify playlist data in real time to reflect user preferences and play counts. For example, it identifies characteristics of guitar riffs and vocal styles. This allows it to incorporate social media trends and user feedback in real time.
[0035] The contemporary music feature analysis unit can integrate visual and musical elements, including data from music videos and live performances. For example, when the AI analyzes the characteristics of pop music, it analyzes the visual elements of music videos (e.g., dance and visual effects) and integrates them with musical elements. For example, it analyzes the consistency of video cuts and rhythms. When the AI analyzes the characteristics of rock music, it analyzes live performance data (e.g., staging and audience reactions) and integrates them with musical elements. For example, it analyzes guitar solos and vocal performances. When the AI analyzes the characteristics of hip-hop music, it analyzes the visual elements of music videos (e.g., graffiti and street dance) and integrates them with musical elements. For example, it analyzes the consistency of lyric themes and visuals. This allows for the integration of visual and musical elements.
[0036] The contemporary music feature analysis unit can integrate visual and musical elements, including data from music videos and live performances. For example, when the AI analyzes the characteristics of pop music, it analyzes the visual elements of music videos (e.g., dance and visual effects) and integrates them with musical elements. For example, it analyzes the consistency of video cuts and rhythms. When the AI analyzes the characteristics of rock music, it analyzes live performance data (e.g., staging and audience reactions) and integrates them with musical elements. For example, it analyzes guitar solos and vocal performances. When the AI analyzes the characteristics of hip-hop music, it analyzes the visual elements of music videos (e.g., graffiti and street dance) and integrates them with musical elements. For example, it analyzes the consistency of lyric themes and visuals. This allows for the integration of visual and musical elements.
[0037] The contemporary music feature analysis unit can also be applied to music from other entertainment fields, providing a cross-platform music experience. For example, the contemporary music feature analysis unit uses AI to analyze film music data to generate soundtracks incorporating elements of contemporary pop culture. For example, electronic music can be created to match scenes from action movies. The contemporary music feature analysis unit also uses AI to analyze game music data to generate background music incorporating elements of contemporary pop culture. For example, hip-hop beats can be created to match exploration scenes in open-world games. The contemporary music feature analysis unit also uses AI to analyze anime music data to generate opening themes incorporating elements of contemporary pop culture. For example, rock music can be created to match the opening theme of a battle anime. This allows the unit to be applied to music from other entertainment fields, providing a cross-platform music experience.
[0038] The contemporary music feature analysis unit can adapt to regional musical styles and incorporate diverse musical cultures from a global perspective. For example, AI can analyze African music data to generate new music incorporating elements of modern pop culture, such as fusing African beats with electronic music. Similarly, AI can analyze Asian music data to generate new music incorporating elements of modern pop culture, such as fusing K-POP rhythms with classical melodies. Similarly, AI can analyze Latin American music data to generate new music incorporating elements of modern pop culture, such as fusing salsa rhythms with hip-hop beats. This allows for adaptation to regional musical styles and the incorporation of diverse musical cultures from a global perspective.
[0039] The music generation unit can increase the diversity of music by trying different combinations of instruments or introducing new instruments. For example, when the AI creates new music, it can combine classical string instruments with electronic synthesizers to generate diverse music. For example, it can combine a violin with a synth bass. When the AI creates new music, it can also combine traditional folk instruments with modern pop instruments to generate diverse music. For example, it can combine a shakuhachi with an electric guitar. When the AI creates new music, it can also introduce new instruments to generate diverse music. For example, it can combine digital instruments with acoustic instruments. This allows it to try different combinations of instruments or introduce new instruments to increase the diversity of music.
[0040] The music generation unit can link the creation of new music with other media and present it as a multimedia work. For example, the music generation unit can use AI to create new music and link it with a video work to present it as a multimedia work. For example, it can be used as a movie soundtrack. The music generation unit can also use AI to create new music and link it with an art installation to present it as a multimedia work. For example, it can be used for an exhibition in a gallery. The music generation unit can also use AI to create new music and link it with a game to present it as a multimedia work. For example, it can be used as background music for a game. In this way, the creation of new music can be linked with other media and presented as a multimedia work.
[0041] The music generation unit can customize the creation of new music to suit a specific event or theme, thereby providing a personalized music experience. For example, the music generation unit uses AI to create new music and customize it to suit a specific event (e.g., a wedding or a party). For example, the music generation unit generates romantic music to suit a wedding theme. The music generation unit can also use AI to create new music and customize it to suit a specific theme (e.g., a season or holiday). For example, the music generation unit can generate music to suit a Christmas theme. The music generation unit can also use AI to create new music and customize it to suit a specific user's preferences. For example, the music generation unit can generate music based on the user's favorite genre or artist. This allows the creation of new music to be customized to suit a specific event or theme, thereby providing a personalized music experience.
[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 music generation system may further include an environmental sound acquisition unit that acquires environmental sounds. The environmental sound acquisition unit may, for example, collect background sounds from the user's location in real time and adjust the music generation process based on the collected sounds. For example, if the user is in nature, the music generation unit may generate music incorporating the sounds of birds chirping and wind. Alternatively, if the user is in a city, the music generation unit may generate music incorporating the sounds of traffic and the hustle and bustle of people. This allows for a musical experience tailored to the user's environment.
[0044] The music generation system may further include an activity data acquisition unit that acquires user activity data. The activity data acquisition unit may, for example, monitor the user's exercise volume and travel distance in real time and adjust the music generation process based on that data. For example, if the user is running, the music generation unit may generate music with a fast tempo. On the other hand, if the user is relaxing, the music generation unit may generate music with a slower tempo. This allows for a musical experience tailored to the user's activity.
[0045] The music generation system may further include a history analysis unit that analyzes the user's past music history. The history analysis unit may, for example, collect data on songs the user has listened to in the past and adjust the music generation process based on that data. For example, it may generate music that incorporates the characteristics of genres and artists that the user has listened to in the past. It may also analyze the trends in songs the user listened to during a specific time period and generate music that is appropriate for that time period. This may provide a personalized music experience based on the user's past music history.
[0046] The music generation system may further include a learning unit that learns the user's preferences. The learning unit may, for example, learn the characteristics of the music the user likes and adjust the music generation process based on those characteristics. For example, the learning unit may learn the user's preferred tempo and melody patterns and generate music incorporating those characteristics. The system may also learn the user's preferred instrument combinations and generate music incorporating those combinations. This allows the system to provide a musical experience tailored to the user's preferences.

Step 3: The music generation unit generates new music by combining the classical music structure analyzed by the classical music structure analysis unit with the contemporary music characteristics analyzed by the contemporary music characteristics analysis unit. For example, classical melodies can be combined with pop rhythms, or orchestral arrangements can be combined with electronic sounds. The AI also creates the combined music based on prompts, including instructions from the user.
[0051] (Example 2) The music generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention analyzes the structure of classical music and generates new music that blends it with modern pop culture. This allows the music generation system to generate new music that blends classical music with modern music culture, reconstruct the value of classical music, and pass on its greatness to the next generation.
[0052] A music generation system according to an embodiment includes a classical music structure analysis unit, a contemporary music feature analysis unit, and a music generation unit. The classical music structure analysis unit analyzes the structure of classical music. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit analyzes music such as Beethoven's symphonies and Mozart's sonatas to extract elements such as melody, harmony, rhythm, and instrumentation.

For example, it analyzes the ornaments in Nocturne No. 2. This allows the AI to extract elements by taking into account the historical background of the piece and the composer's intentions.
[0054] The classical music structure analysis unit can compare performance data of the same piece by different performers and analyze differences in performance style. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit compares performance data of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 by multiple conductors and analyzes differences in tempo and dynamics. For example, comparing performances by Karajan and Bernstein. The classical music structure analysis unit also compares performance data of Bach's Goldberg Variations by different pianists and analyzes differences in ornamentation and phrasing.

For example, comparing performances by the Vienna Philharmonic and the Berlin Philharmonic. This makes it possible to analyze differences in performance style of the same piece by different performers.
[0055] The classical music structure analysis unit uses the emotion estimation function to analyze the emotional impact each part of a classical piece has on the audience, and can reevaluate the structure of the piece based on the emotional data. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit analyzes Beethoven's Symphony No. 6, "Pastoral," and estimates the emotional impact each movement has on the audience. For example, it compares the calm emotion of the first movement with the stormy emotion of the fourth movement. The classical music structure analysis unit also analyzes Chopin's Ballade No. 1 and estimates the emotional impact each part has on the audience. For example, it compares the sense of anxiety in the introduction with the sense of elation in the climax. The classical music structure analysis unit also analyzes Mozart's Requiem and estimates the emotional impact each part has on the audience. For example, it compares the sense of fear in "Die Irae" with the sadness in "Die Tears." This allows the emotional impact each part of a classical piece has on the audience to be analyzed, and the structure of the piece to be reevaluated based on the emotional data.
[0056] The classical music structure analysis section can be combined with structural analysis of other art forms to identify commonalities between different art forms. For example, the classical music structure analysis section compares the structure of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 with contemporary paintings (such as Turner's landscapes) to identify common themes and expressive techniques. For example, it analyzes the repetition of motifs and color contrasts. The classical music structure analysis section also compares the structure of Chopin's nocturnes with contemporary literary works (such as Balzac's novels) to identify common emotional expressions and elements. For example, it analyzes emotional ups and downs and narrative development. The classical music structure analysis section also compares the structure of Mozart's operas with contemporary plays (such as Shakespeare's plays) to identify common dramatic elements and character portrayals. For example, it compares arias and monologues. This allows for the identification of commonalities between different art forms.
[0057] The classical music structure analysis unit can be used as interactive educational materials to help students visually understand the structure of a piece of music. For example, the classical music structure analysis unit could visualize the structure of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 and develop teaching materials that allow students to interactively learn each part of the piece. For example, the themes and motives of each movement could be displayed color-coded. The classical music structure analysis unit could also visualize Mozart's sonata form and develop teaching materials that allow students to interactively learn the development and recapitulation sections of a piece of music. For example, the role and characteristics of each part could be shown using animation.

[0111] The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0112] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate a user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotion, including estimation and prediction of the user's emotion, but is not limited to these examples. Furthermore, the estimation and prediction of emotion also includes, for example, emotion analysis.
[0113] In the headset type terminal 314, the specific processing is performed by the processor 46. A specific processing program 60 is stored in the storage 50. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as the control unit 46A in accordance with the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. Note that the headset type terminal 314 has a data generation model and an emotion identification model similar to the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59, and can also perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0114] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 communicates with the server device having the data generation model 58 to obtain a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (for example, a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user.
[0115] 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.
[0116] 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.

[0130] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 communicates with the server device having the data generation model 58 to obtain a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (for example, a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user.
[0131] 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 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.

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.

[0133] 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.
[0134] 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.
[0135] 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.
[0136] 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.
[0137] 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).
[0138] 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.
[0139] 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."
[0140] 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.
[0141] 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.
[0142] 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.
[0143] 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.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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.
[0146] 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.
[0147] 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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments have been described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are merely examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used.
