[0028] (Example 1) The personal information management system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that converts personal information scattered across multiple domains into a format that can be understood by AI, and develops "AI that understands individuals" with high accuracy. As a result, the personal information management system can extract, collect, accumulate, and utilize features that do not include personal information, thereby understanding the behavior and preferences of individual users with high accuracy.
[0029] A personal information management system according to an embodiment includes a feature extraction unit, a collection unit, a storage unit, and an utilization unit. The feature extraction unit extracts features from personal information scattered across multiple domains. For example, it extracts features indicating a user's behavioral patterns and preferences from website browsing history, purchase history, app usage logs, etc. The feature extraction unit is performed by a generation AI, and input to the generation AI is log data and behavioral data that do not contain personal information. The generation AI analyzes this data and extracts features. The collection unit collects the features extracted by the feature extraction unit. For example, it integrates features collected from different corporations and services to build a comprehensive dataset for individual users. The collection unit saves the features in a format that is easy for the generation AI to analyze. The storage unit accumulates the features collected by the collection unit. For example, it accumulates them in a database so that they can be used for later analysis. The storage unit saves the data in a format that is easy for the generation AI to analyze. The utilization unit utilizes the features accumulated by the storage unit. For example, an AI can be built that provides personalized services and content based on a user's behavioral patterns and preferences. The generation AI analyzes accumulated features and makes suggestions based on the user's needs and preferences. This allows the personal information management system according to the embodiment to efficiently collect, store, and utilize personal information scattered across multiple domains, enabling the development of highly accurate "AI that understands individuals." For example, by building an AI that provides personalized services and content based on a user's behavioral patterns and preferences, the user experience can be improved. Furthermore, while prioritizing privacy protection, the introduction of data anonymization technology can reduce the risk of personal information leaks.
[0030] The feature extraction unit can extract features by combining environmental data with behavioral data. For example, the feature extraction unit combines weather data with a user's website browsing history to extract the impact of weather fluctuations on behavior as features. For example, the feature extraction unit analyzes the frequency of visiting a specific website on rainy days. The feature extraction unit also combines time-of-day data with a user's app usage log to extract changes in behavioral patterns depending on the time of use as features. For example, the feature extraction unit analyzes the types of apps used late at night. The feature extraction unit also combines seasonal data with a user's purchase history to extract seasonal purchasing patterns as features. For example, the feature extraction unit analyzes trends in products purchased in the summer. In this way, by combining environmental data, more detailed behavioral patterns can be identified.
[0031] The feature extraction unit can analyze social media activity and extract features from comments and reactions. For example, the feature extraction unit analyzes the content of a user's social media posts and extracts the frequency of use of specific keywords and hashtags as features. For example, it analyzes the number of posts related to a specific topic. The feature extraction unit also analyzes the user's social media reactions (likes, shares, comments) and extracts the type and frequency of reactions as features. For example, it analyzes the characteristics of posts with a large number of positive reactions. The feature extraction unit also analyzes the number of followers and followings of a user on social media and extracts the breadth of the network as a feature. For example, it analyzes the behavioral patterns of influential users. In this way, analyzing social media activity can identify online behavioral patterns.
[0032] The feature extraction unit can analyze audio data and video data and extract features from audio tone and facial expressions. The feature extraction unit, for example, analyzes the user's audio data and extracts changes in audio tone as features. For example, it analyzes the difference in audio tone between excited and calm users. The feature extraction unit also analyzes the user's video data and extracts changes in facial expressions as features. For example, it analyzes the frequency of smiling and angry facial expressions. The feature extraction unit also analyzes the audio and video data in combination and extracts the degree of agreement between audio tone and facial expressions as features. For example, it analyzes the degree of agreement between positive audio tone and smiling. In this way, the user's emotional state can be grasped by extracting features from audio tone and facial expressions.
[0033] The feature extraction unit can integrate data from different devices and extract multi-device behavioral patterns. For example, the feature extraction unit integrates data from a smartphone and a smartwatch to extract a user's daily behavioral patterns as features. For example, it analyzes fluctuations in the number of steps taken and heart rate. The feature extraction unit also combines app usage logs from the smartphone with health data from the smartwatch to extract the relationship between health status and app usage as features. For example, it analyzes app usage trends after exercise. The feature extraction unit also integrates notification data from different devices and extracts notification reception frequency and reaction time as features.

In this way, by integrating data from different devices, multi-device behavioral patterns can be understood.
[0034] The collection unit can evaluate the reliability of data at the time of collection and store only highly reliable data. The collection unit, for example, performs a reliability evaluation on collected features and builds a system that stores only highly reliable data. For example, the reliability is evaluated based on the origin and consistency of the data. The collection unit also develops an algorithm that automatically evaluates the reliability of data and excludes low-reliability data. For example, outliers and missing values are detected and excluded. The collection unit also determines the priority of features based on the results of the reliability evaluation and builds a system that efficiently stores highly reliable data. For example, data with a high reliability score is preferentially saved. This improves data quality by storing only highly reliable data.
[0035] The collection unit can introduce an algorithm that automatically detects and removes duplicate data and noise in the collection process. The collection unit, for example, applies a duplicate data detection algorithm to the collected features to automatically remove duplicate data. For example, duplicate data from the same user is detected and deleted. The collection unit also introduces a noise data detection algorithm to automatically remove noise data during the collection process. For example, abnormal values and outliers are detected and removed. The collection unit also builds a system that simultaneously detects duplicate data and noise data and efficiently removes them. For example, a data cleansing algorithm is applied to improve data quality. This improves data quality by automatically removing duplicate data and noise.
[0036] The collection unit can compare feature quantities collected from different regions and cultural spheres and accumulate region-specific behavioral patterns. The collection unit, for example, compares feature quantities collected from different regions and builds a system that accumulates region-specific behavioral patterns. For example, it analyzes purchasing patterns for each region. The collection unit also compares feature quantities for each cultural sphere and accumulates culture-specific behavioral patterns. For example, it analyzes social media usage trends in a specific cultural sphere. The collection unit also integrates feature quantities for each region and cultural sphere and develops a system that efficiently accumulates region-specific behavioral patterns. For example, it clusters and stores data for each region. By accumulating region-specific behavioral patterns, data analysis that takes into account the characteristics of each region becomes possible.
[0037] The collection unit can build a system that analyzes data in real time as features are collected and stores the data immediately. For example, the collection unit introduces a real-time analysis function into the feature collection process and builds a system that stores data immediately. For example, the collected data is analyzed and saved in real time. The collection unit also develops a real-time analysis algorithm and immediately analyzes and saves the collected features. For example, streaming data is analyzed in real time. The collection unit also builds a system that analyzes data in real time and stores the data immediately, thereby always maintaining the latest features. For example, the data is saved using a real-time database. In this way, the data can be analyzed in real time and stored immediately, allowing the latest features to always be maintained.
[0038] The application unit can analyze the features and develop an algorithm to predict the user's future behavior. For example, the application unit analyzes the collected features and develops an algorithm to predict the user's future behavior. For example, it predicts the next purchasing behavior based on past behavior patterns. The application unit also uses the feature data to build a model to predict the user's future behavior. For example, it predicts app usage during a specific time period. The application unit also develops a future behavior prediction algorithm to estimate the user's next behavior based on the user's behavior patterns. For example, it predicts the next website to visit. This makes it possible to provide more personalized services by predicting the user's future behavior.
[0039] The utilization unit can estimate the user's health condition and stress level based on the features and provide health management services. The utilization unit, for example, analyzes the collected features and develops an algorithm to estimate the user's health condition. For example, the utilization unit evaluates the health condition based on heart rate and step count data. The utilization unit also uses the feature data to build a model to estimate the user's stress level. For example, the utilization unit evaluates the stress level based on sleep data and activity data. The utilization unit also develops a system that estimates the health condition and stress level and provides the user with appropriate health management services. For example, the utilization unit provides advice on stress reduction. In this way, appropriate health management services can be provided by estimating the user's health condition and stress level.
[0040] The utilization unit can estimate the user's hobbies and interests based on the features and suggest related events and communities. The utilization unit, for example, analyzes the collected features and develops an algorithm to estimate the user's hobbies and interests. For example, it estimates hobbies based on browsing history and purchase history. The utilization unit also uses the feature data to build a system that estimates the user's interests and suggests related events. For example, it recommends events in a specific genre. The utilization unit also develops a system that estimates hobbies and interests and suggests communities suitable for the user. For example, it recommends online communities where users with the same hobbies gather. In this way, it can suggest related events and communities by estimating the user's hobbies and interests.
[0041] The utilization unit can utilize the features to automatically generate marketing campaigns to increase users' purchasing motivation. The utilization unit, for example, analyzes the collected features and builds a system that automatically generates marketing campaigns to increase users' purchasing motivation. For example, it creates a campaign based on interest in a specific product. The utilization unit also uses the feature data to predict users' purchasing behavior and automatically generate optimal marketing campaigns.

[0148] 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.

[0149] 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.
[0150] 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.
[0151] 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.
[0152] 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).
[0153] 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.
[0154] 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."
[0155] 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.

[0159] 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.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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.
[0164] 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.
[0165] 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.
