The detection unit also links the detection results of risky interactions with other security systems to achieve comprehensive risk management. For example, it links with an intrusion detection system to identify risks. In this way, by linking with other security systems, comprehensive risk management can be achieved.

[0037] The warning unit can automatically generate the content of the warning and provide the optimal warning message depending on the situation. For example, the generation AI of the warning unit automatically generates the content of the warning and provides the optimal warning message depending on the situation. For example, if there is a high risk of fraud, the warning unit issues a warning saying, "There is a possibility of fraud. Please be careful." The warning unit also automatically generates the content of the warning and provides the optimal warning message depending on the situation. For example, if there is a high risk of harassment, the warning unit issues a warning saying, "There is a possibility of harassment. Please be careful." The warning unit also automatically generates the content of the warning and provides the optimal warning message depending on the situation. For example, if there is a high risk of an emergency, the warning unit issues a warning saying, "There is a possibility of an emergency. Please be careful." This allows the user to take appropriate action by providing the optimal warning message depending on the situation.

[0038] The warning unit can optimize the timing of the warning and issue a warning before the risk increases. For example, the generation AI optimizes the timing of the warning and issues a warning before the risk increases. For example, the generation AI issues a warning, "There is a possibility of fraud. Please be careful," before the risk of fraud increases. The warning unit also optimizes the timing of the warning and issues a warning before the risk increases. For example, the generation AI issues a warning, "There is a possibility of harassment. Please be careful," before the risk of harassment increases. The warning unit also optimizes the timing of the warning and issues a warning before the risk increases. For example, the generation AI issues a warning, "There is a possibility of an emergency. Please be careful," before the risk of an emergency increases. This allows the user to take early action by issuing a warning before the risk increases.

[0039] The warning unit can link different devices together to provide a warning through multiple channels. For example, the warning unit links different devices together to issue a warning and provides a warning through multiple channels. For example, a smart watch and a smart speaker are linked together to issue a warning. The warning unit also links different devices together to provide a warning through multiple channels. For example, a smartphone and a PC are linked together to issue a warning. The warning unit also links different devices together to issue a warning and provides a warning through multiple channels. For example, a tablet and a smart speaker are linked together to issue a warning. By providing a warning through multiple channels, the user can take prompt action.

[0040] The warning unit can link the result of issuing a warning with the user's behavior history and evaluate the effectiveness of the warning. The warning unit, for example, links the result of issuing a warning with the user's behavior history and evaluates the effectiveness of the warning. For example, it analyzes the user's behavior after the warning and measures the effectiveness of the warning. The warning unit also links with the user's behavior history and evaluates the result of issuing a warning. For example, it analyzes the user's behavior pattern after the warning and measures the effectiveness of the warning. The warning unit also links the result of issuing a warning with the user's behavior history and evaluates the effectiveness of the warning. For example, it analyzes changes in the user's behavior after the warning and measures the effectiveness of the warning. In this way, the accuracy of the warning can be improved by evaluating the effectiveness of the warning.

[0041] The recording unit can automatically summarize the recorded data and extract only the important parts. For example, the generation AI in the recording unit automatically summarizes the recorded data and extracts only the important parts. For example, it summarizes and extracts parts that are suspected of fraud. The recording unit can also automatically summarize the recorded data and extract only the important parts. For example, it can summarize and extract parts that are suspected of harassment. The recording unit can also automatically summarize the recorded data and extract only the important parts.

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.

[0139] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414.

The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network.

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.

[0141] 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.

[0142] 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.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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).

[0146] 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 "reaction" domain, where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "situation" domain, where situational awareness is dominant.

[0147] 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."

[0148] 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.

[0149] 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.

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

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.
