[0016] [First embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.

[0017] 1, a data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0018] 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. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0019] The smart device 14 includes a computer 36, a reception device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication I / F 44.

[0020] The reception device 38 includes a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and receives user input. The touch panel 38A detects contact with a pointer (for example, a pen or a finger) to receive user input by the touch of the pointer. The microphone 38B detects the user's voice to receive user input by voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and the microphone 38B to the data processing device 12.

[0023] FIG. 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.

[0024] 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" according to the technology of the present disclosure. 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 process 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.

[0025] 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.

Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0028] (Example 1) SmartOps Insight, an embodiment of the present invention, is a system that monitors operations on employees' PC monitors, automatically identifies repetitive routine tasks, and suggests automating them. This enables SmartOps Insight to improve business efficiency and support organizational productivity.

[0029] SmartOps Insight according to an embodiment includes an operation monitoring unit, a task identification unit, an automation suggestion unit, a generative AI learning unit, and a privacy protection unit. The operation monitoring unit monitors operations performed on employees' PC monitors. For example, it monitors keyboard input, mouse operations, and application usage. The operation monitoring unit also records and saves operation logs. For example, the operation logs are saved as log files for later analysis. The task identification unit identifies repetitive routine tasks from the operation logs acquired by the operation monitoring unit. For example, it identifies data entry tasks performed at the same time every day and file organization tasks performed periodically. The task identification unit also analyzes patterns in the operation logs to identify routine tasks. For example, it identifies routine tasks based on the frequency and timing of specific operations. The automation suggestion unit proposes automation for the routine tasks identified by the task identification unit. For example, it generates a script for automating data entry tasks. The automation suggestion unit also proposes tools for automating file organization tasks. For example, it proposes a tool for automatically moving files to a specific folder. The generative AI learning unit trains the generative AI based on the operation logs, resulting in a generative AI that is knowledgeable about that business. For example, the generative AI analyzes the operation logs to accumulate knowledge about a specific business. The generative AI can also answer questions about that business and provide advice. The privacy protection unit protects the operation logs and the generative AI's learning data based on strict privacy and security measures. For example, the operation logs are encrypted so that only authorized personnel can view them. The generative AI's learning data is also similarly protected to prevent unauthorized access and data leaks. This enables SmartOps Insight to improve business efficiency and organizational productivity. For example, automating repetitive routine tasks allows employees to focus on more creative work. Furthermore, with the support of the generative AI, which is knowledgeable about the business, employees can perform their work quickly and accurately. Furthermore, strict privacy and security measures allow users to use the platform with peace of mind.

[0030] In addition to operation logs, the operation monitoring unit can also monitor voice input and gesture operations, allowing it to identify a wider variety of routine tasks. For example, the operation monitoring unit may introduce a system that monitors voice input and gesture operations in addition to operations performed by employees on their PCs. For example, it may capture voice instructions and hand movements and analyze the data to identify routine tasks. The operation monitoring unit may also use voice recognition technology to analyze voice instructions given by employees and identify repetitive voice commands as routine tasks. For example, it may identify voice instructions given at the same time every day. The operation monitoring unit may also use gesture recognition technology to analyze hand movements made by employees and identify repetitive gesture operations as routine tasks. For example, it may identify hand movements used to open a specific file. This allows it to identify a wider variety of routine tasks by monitoring a wider variety of input methods.

[0031] When analyzing operation logs, the task identification unit also takes into account the context before and after the appearance of a specific operation pattern, allowing for more accurate task identification. For example, when analyzing operation logs, the task identification unit develops an algorithm that takes into account the operations before and after the appearance of a specific operation pattern. For example, it analyzes a series of operations performed before opening a specific file. The task identification unit also performs context analysis of the operation log to identify routine tasks by considering the time period and operation content before and after a specific operation. For example, it identifies operation patterns performed in specific time periods. The task identification unit also analyzes the context of the operation log to build a system that identifies routine tasks based on operation patterns before and after a specific operation. For example, it identifies operations that are always performed before a specific operation. In this way, the accuracy of task identification is improved by taking into account the context of the operation pattern.

[0032] The operation monitoring unit can monitor not only PC monitors but also other devices such as smartphones and tablets to identify routine tasks. For example, the operation monitoring unit builds a system that expands the scope of operation monitoring to include not only PC monitors but also other devices such as smartphones and tablets. For example, it collects smartphone operation logs. The operation monitoring unit also analyzes smartphone and tablet operation logs to develop an algorithm to identify repetitive routine tasks. For example, it identifies regular operations performed on smartphones. The operation monitoring unit also integrates operation logs from other devices and builds a system to identify routine tasks in the same way as PC monitors. For example, it integrates and analyzes operations performed on tablets with operations on PC monitors. This makes it possible to identify more routine tasks by monitoring multiple devices.

[0033] The task identification unit can use task identification algorithms customized for different business departments to make automation suggestions tailored to the characteristics of each department.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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.

[0146] 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.

[0147] 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).

[0148] 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.

[0149] 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."

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] All publications, patent applications, and technical standards mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent application, or technical standard was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference.
