[0095] The notification unit works in conjunction with the user's calendar app to suggest optimal exercise times based on the user's schedule. For example, it can schedule short exercise sessions between meetings or appointments. The notification unit also analyzes data from the calendar app to identify the times when it is easiest for the user to exercise. For example, it can suggest exercising before commuting in the morning or during lunch breaks. The notification unit also adjusts the type and intensity of exercise to suit the user's schedule. For example, it can suggest light exercise on busy days and high-intensity exercise on days when the user has more time. This allows the device to provide optimal exercise times based on the user's schedule.

[0096] The data collection unit can collect the user's sleep patterns. The analysis unit can analyze the data collected by the data collection unit and suggest optimal exercise times. For example, the user's sleep patterns can be collected using a sleep tracker or self-reporting. The analysis unit, for example, suggests exercise during times when the user is most energetic. The analysis unit also adjusts the timing of exercise based on the sleep data. For example, it suggests light exercise the morning after staying up late, and high-intensity exercise on days when the user has had enough sleep. The analysis unit also selects the type of exercise based on the user's sleep patterns. For example, it suggests relaxing yoga or stretching on days when the user has not had enough sleep. This makes it possible to suggest optimal exercise times based on the user's sleep patterns.

[0097] The plan generation unit can use the emotion estimation function to suggest exercises and meals that the user will enjoy most. For example, it identifies exercises that the user finds enjoyable and creates a plan centered around those exercises. The plan generation unit also suggests a meal plan that the user will enjoy most based on the user's emotion data. For example, it provides recipes that incorporate the user's favorite ingredients and dishes. The plan generation unit also uses the emotion estimation function to suggest exercises during times of the day that the user finds enjoyable. For example, it suggests yoga or stretching in the evening when the user is relaxed. This makes it possible to provide the user with exercises and meals that they will enjoy most.

[0098] The notification unit can use the emotion estimation function to send an encouraging message when the user's motivation drops. For example, when the emotion score is low, it can send a message such as "Keep up the good work! You're almost there!" The notification unit can also customize the encouraging message based on the user's emotion data when motivation drops. For example, it can send a personalized message that includes the user's name. The notification unit can also use the emotion estimation function to suggest specific actions the user can take to regain motivation. For example, it can send advice such as "Try taking a short break and then resume." This makes it possible to send an encouraging message when the user's motivation drops.

[0099] The plan generation unit can analyze the user's feedback using the emotion estimation function and propose a plan that will increase emotional satisfaction. For example, the plan can be adjusted based on feedback that contains strong positive emotions. The plan generation unit can also use the emotion estimation function to analyze the emotional aspects of the feedback and provide a plan that will satisfy the user. For example, it can suggest exercises and meals that the user finds enjoyable. The plan generation unit can also analyze the feedback based on the user's emotion data and propose specific actions to increase emotional satisfaction. For example, it can provide exercises and meals that will relax the user. In this way, a plan that will increase emotional satisfaction can be provided based on the user's feedback.

[0100] The data collection unit can use the emotion estimation function to provide health advice according to the user's emotional state. For example, if stress is high, it can suggest exercise or meals that have a relaxing effect. The data collection unit also provides health advice according to the user's emotional state based on the user's emotional data. For example, if positive emotions are strong, it can suggest a challenging exercise plan. The data collection unit also uses the emotion estimation function to provide health advice according to the user's emotional state in real time. For example, if emotions are unstable, it can suggest music or meditation that has a relaxing effect. This makes it possible to provide health advice according to the user's emotional state.

[0101] The data collection unit analyzes the user's health data using the emotion estimation function, allowing for early detection of signs of stress and fatigue. For example, it evaluates stress levels based on heart rate and sleep data. The data collection unit also uses the emotion estimation function to analyze the user's health data and, if signs of stress or fatigue are detected, suggests exercise or meals that have a relaxing effect. For example, if stress is high, it suggests yoga or herbal tea. The data collection unit also monitors the user's health data in real time, and issues an alert using the emotion estimation function if it detects signs of stress or fatigue. For example, it notifies the user to take a rest if fatigue is accumulating. This allows the user's health data to be analyzed using the emotion estimation function, allowing for early detection of signs of stress and fatigue.

[0102] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.

[0103] Step 1: The data collection unit collects information about the user's lifestyle and health status. For example, the data collection unit collects information such as the user's diet, exercise history, and sleep patterns. The data collection unit can also collect data in real time using wearable devices or smartphone apps. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the information collected by the data collection unit. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the user's health condition and lifestyle habits using statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms. The analysis unit can also analyze the user's psychological state using an emotion estimation function. Step 3: The plan generation unit generates an optimal diet plan based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the plan generation unit generates a meal plan that takes into account calorie restriction and nutritional balance. The plan generation unit can also generate an exercise plan that takes into account the user's hobbies and interests and is linked to those hobbies. Step 4: The notification unit notifies the user of the plan generated by the plan generation unit. For example, the notification unit notifies the user of the plan using a push notification on a smartphone or an email notification. The notification unit can also work with the user's calendar app to suggest optimal exercise times based on the user's schedule.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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).

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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."

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.

[0168] 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. In the above example, the first and second embodiments have been described separately, but they may be combined.
