[0028] (Example 1) A document input support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system in which a generation AI automatically generates information to be entered by a user, thereby streamlining document input work. As a result, the document input support system can streamline document input work that is tedious for users to fill out.
[0029] A document input support system according to an embodiment includes a document analysis unit, an information generation unit, and an input unit. The document analysis unit analyzes the type and content of a document. For example, the document analysis unit analyzes a document template uploaded by a user and identifies necessary information items. The document analysis unit can also analyze the content of a document using text analysis technology. For example, the document analysis unit analyzes a contract template and identifies necessary information items. The information generation unit automatically generates necessary information based on the information items analyzed by the document analysis unit. For example, the information generation unit automatically generates basic information about a user (such as name, address, and contact information). The information generation unit can also automatically generate detailed information (such as income, expenses, and insurance policy details) required for a specific document. For example, the information generation unit references data previously input by the user to generate appropriate information. The input unit automatically inputs the information generated by the information generation unit into a specified document. For example, the input unit inputs appropriate values into the income and expense fields of a tax return. The input unit can also input insurance policy details and claim amounts into an insurance application form. For example, the input unit automatically inputs the generated information into each item. As a result, the document input support system according to the embodiment can streamline the input work of documents that are tedious for users to fill out. For example, the user can complete the document without any hassle. In addition, the generation AI can learn the content corrected by the user and reflect it in subsequent inputs. This improves the accuracy of the generation AI, enabling more efficient document input.
[0030] The document analysis unit can refer to the user's past document creation history and prioritize analysis of frequently used templates. For example, the generation AI retrieves the user's past document creation history from a database and identifies frequently used templates. For example, it prioritizes analysis of templates used most frequently over the past year. The document analysis unit also analyzes the history of documents created by the user in the past and extracts specific patterns and common items. For example, it prioritizes analysis of reports submitted monthly and contracts that are updated regularly. The document analysis unit also allows the generation AI to learn the user's document creation history and automatically list frequently used templates. For example, it prioritizes analysis of document templates related to specific tasks. This enables efficient document creation by prioritizing the analysis of frequently used templates.
[0031] The document analysis unit learns the user's business operations and industry-specific terminology, enabling more accurate analysis.

For example, the document analysis unit introduces a multilingual analysis algorithm so that the generation AI can analyze documents in different languages. For example, it analyzes documents in English, French, Chinese, etc. Furthermore, when a user uploads a document in a different language, the document analysis unit automatically detects the language and performs the appropriate analysis. For example, it uses a language detection function to identify the language of the document. Furthermore, when the generation AI analyzes documents in different languages, the document analysis unit combines the analysis with a translation function. For example, by translating the document first and then analyzing it, accuracy can be improved. This allows the analysis of documents in different languages to support international document creation.
[0033] The document analysis unit can also analyze image and audio data, extracting necessary information from visual and audio information. For example, the generation AI analyzes image data contained in a document and extracts necessary information from the visual information. For example, it analyzes scanned handwritten notes and diagrams. The document analysis unit also analyzes audio data contained in a document and extracts necessary information from audio information. For example, it analyzes audio memos and meeting recordings and converts them into text.

For example, it extracts information from both images and audio. This allows for the extraction of necessary information from visual and audio information, making it possible to create a wider variety of documents.
[0034] The information generation unit can improve accuracy by referencing the user's past input data and learning individual patterns. For example, the information generation unit uses a generation AI to retrieve the user's past input data from a database and learn individual patterns. For example, the information generation unit automatically generates necessary information based on past input history. The information generation unit also analyzes data previously entered by the user and extracts specific patterns and common items. For example, it learns monthly income and expenditure patterns. The information generation unit also uses a generation AI to learn individual patterns based on the user's past input data and improve input accuracy from the next time onwards. For example, it automatically generates information required for a specific document. In this way, the accuracy of information generation is improved by referencing past input data and learning individual patterns.
[0035] The information generation unit can obtain information from external databases and generate more accurate information. For example, the generation AI of the information generation unit obtains information from external databases and automatically generates the necessary information. For example, it obtains the latest tax rates and regulatory information from public government databases. The information generation unit also obtains information from a company's internal database and automatically generates the necessary information. For example, it generates the necessary information based on a company's financial data and customer information. The information generation unit also has the generation AI work with external databases to obtain and automatically generate the necessary information in real time. For example, it generates information based on the latest market data and economic indicators. This allows more accurate information to be generated by obtaining information from external databases.
[0036] The information generation unit generates information suitable for different industries and applications, supporting the creation of a wide range of documents. For example, the information generation unit references industry-specific databases so that the generation AI can generate information suitable for different industries and applications. For example, it uses databases for the medical industry and the legal industry. Furthermore, when a user creates a document suitable for a different industry or application, the information generation unit allows the generation AI to automatically generate appropriate information. For example, it automatically generates information for medical reports and contracts. Furthermore, the information generation unit learns industry-specific terminology and phrases so that the generation AI can generate information suitable for different industries and applications. For example, it learns financial industry terminology and technology industry phrases. This allows the generation AI to generate information suitable for different industries and applications, supporting the creation of a wide range of documents.
[0037] The information generation unit enables a user to provide information by voice input and can utilize voice recognition technology. For example, the generation AI in the information generation unit uses voice recognition technology to enable a user to provide information by voice input. For example, a name or address is input by voice. Furthermore, when a user provides information by voice input, the generation AI converts the voice into text in real time and automatically generates the necessary information. For example, income and expense information is input by voice. Furthermore, the information generation unit enables the generation AI to utilize voice recognition technology to improve the accuracy when a user provides information by voice input. For example, to improve the accuracy of voice recognition, the generation AI learns the user's pronunciation and accent. This allows information to be provided by voice input, thereby improving the efficiency of input work.
[0038] The input unit can learn the user's past revision history and improve input accuracy from the next time onwards. For example, the input unit uses a generation AI to retrieve the user's past revision history from a database and improve input accuracy from the next time onwards. For example, the input unit improves the accuracy of automatic input based on the content of past revisions. The input unit also analyzes the content of revisions made by the user in the past and extracts specific patterns and common items. For example, it identifies items that are frequently revised and improves the input accuracy of those parts. The input unit also uses a generation AI to learn the user's revision history and automatically reflect the revisions when inputting from the next time onwards. For example, it learns revision patterns for a specific document and uses them for the next input. In this way, by learning the past revision history, input accuracy from the next time onwards is improved.
[0039] The input unit can accommodate documents of different formats, enabling flexible input. The input unit, for example, allows the generation AI to analyze documents of different formats and support automatic input. For example, it supports different formats such as PDF, Word, and Excel. Furthermore, when a user uploads a document of a different format, the input unit automatically recognizes the format and performs appropriate input. For example, input is performed by combining a format conversion function. Furthermore, the input unit learns input rules for each format so that the generation AI can accommodate documents of different formats. For example, it learns input patterns for specific formats and achieves flexible input. This allows for flexible input by supporting documents of different formats.
[0040] The input unit can also accommodate input from different devices. For example, the input unit provides an input interface for each device so that the generation AI can accommodate input from different devices. For example, it provides an input screen optimized for smartphones and tablets. Furthermore, when a user uploads a document from a different device, the input unit automatically recognizes the device and performs appropriate input. For example, it provides an input method according to the characteristics of the device. Furthermore, the input unit learns input rules for each device so that the generation AI can accommodate input from different devices. For example, it learns the input patterns of smartphones and tablets to achieve flexible input. This enables flexible input by accommodating input from different devices.
[0041] The input unit can be added with a function to scan and automatically input information handwritten by the user. The input unit provides, for example, a function in which the generation AI scans handwritten information and automatically converts it into text data. For example, handwritten notes and signatures are scanned and automatically input. The input unit also scans information handwritten by the user, and the generation AI automatically analyzes and inputs the information into a document. For example, handwritten income and expense information is scanned and automatically input. The input unit also uses handwriting recognition technology to analyze handwritten information with high accuracy and automatically input it. For example, handwritten letters and numbers are accurately recognized and input. This improves the efficiency of input work by scanning and automatically inputting handwritten information.
[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 document analysis unit can refer to the user's work schedule and suggest the optimal timing for document creation. For example, the document analysis unit can link with the user's calendar app to send reminders to encourage document creation before important meetings or deadlines. The document analysis unit can also identify the most efficient time periods for document creation based on the user's past document creation history and suggest document creation during those times. Furthermore, the document analysis unit can support efficient work execution by analyzing the user's workload and suggesting document creation during times when the workload is light.
[0044] The information generation unit can refer to the user's health data and generate information according to the user's health condition. For example, the information generation unit can obtain data from the user's fitness tracker or health app and generate information based on the user's health condition. The information generation unit can also provide information useful for reducing stress and maintaining health based on the user's health data. Furthermore, the information generation unit can make suggestions to reduce the burden of document creation according to the user's health condition. This makes it possible to generate information that takes the user's health condition into consideration.
[0045] The input unit can analyze the user's input speed and provide an optimal input interface. For example, the input unit can analyze the user's typing speed and frequency of typos to customize the input interface. The input unit can also adjust the size and layout of input fields according to the user's input speed. Furthermore, the input unit can provide an input assistance function based on the user's input speed to support efficient input. This allows the input interface to be optimally tailored to the user's input speed.
[0046] The information generation unit can generate personalized information based on the user's hobbies and interests.

The information generation unit can also generate related information based on topics in which the user has shown interest in the past. Furthermore, the information generation unit can support more personalized document creation by providing information that is useful when creating documents according to the user's hobbies and interests. This makes it possible to generate information based on the user's hobbies and interests.
[0047] The information generation unit can predict future input based on the user's past input data and generate information in advance. For example, the information generation unit can analyze the user's past input patterns and predict the next input content. The information generation unit can also generate information necessary for future input in advance based on the user's past input data. Furthermore, the information generation unit can support efficient document creation by making suggestions for future input based on the user's past input data. This makes it possible to efficiently generate information by predicting future input based on the user's past input data.
[0048] The information generation unit can improve accuracy by learning individual patterns based on the user's past input data. For example, the information generation unit retrieves the user's past input data from a database and learns individual patterns. The information generation unit can also analyze data previously input by the user and extract specific patterns or common items. Furthermore, the information generation unit can perform learning based on the user's past input data to improve input accuracy from the next time onwards. In this way, the accuracy of information generation is improved by referring to the past input data and learning individual patterns.

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.
[0113] 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.
[0114] 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.
[0115] 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.

[0119] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32.

[0121] The microphone 238 receives instructions and the like from the user by receiving voice uttered by the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice uttered by the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to instructions from the processor 46.
[0122] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an imaging element such as a CMOS image sensor or a CCD image sensor, and captures images of the user's surroundings (for example, an imaging range defined by an angle of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).
[0123] The communication I / F 44 is connected to a network 54. The communication I / Fs 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 via the network 54.

[0124] The control object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the emotions of the robot 414 can be expressed by controlling these motors. In addition, the facial expressions of the robot 414 can also be expressed by controlling the light emission state of the LEDs in the eyes of the robot 414.
[0125] Fig. 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Fig. 8, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific process program 56 is stored in the storage 32.

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.
[0127] 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.
[0128] In the robot 414, 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 robot 414 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.
[0129] 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.
[0130] 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.
[0131] 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 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.
[0132] 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.
[0133] 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.
[0134] 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.
[0135] 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.
[0136] 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).
[0137] 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.
[0138] 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."
[0139] 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.
[0140] 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.
[0141] 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.
[0142] 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.
[0143] 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.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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.
[0146] 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.
[0147] 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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] 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.
