[0027] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains a processing result (prediction result, etc.) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. 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) In an embodiment of the present invention, a travel plan proposal system allows a user to input desired destinations, and a generation AI generates an optimal travel plan and provides it to the user. The travel plan proposal system allows a user to input desired destinations, and a generation AI generates an optimal travel plan based on the destinations. This plan includes the order in which tourist attractions are visited, transportation options, accommodations, and dining options. The generated plan is customized according to the user's preferences and constraints. For example, the travel plan proposal system allows a user to input desired destinations. For example, the user may simply input specific tourist attractions and city names. The travel plan proposal system then uses a generation AI to analyze the input information and generate an optimal travel plan. The generation AI refers to a database of tourist attractions and determines the order in which tourist attractions are visited based on the user's preferences. For example, the generation AI suggests an order for efficiently touring famous tourist attractions in Kyoto. Transportation options, accommodations, and dining options are also suggested. For example, the proposed travel plan may include transportation options that take train and bus timetables into account, accommodations that fit the user's budget, and dining options where users can enjoy local specialties. The generated travel plan is customized according to the user's preferences and constraints. For example, if a user wants to visit a specific tourist spot or travel at a specific time, the plan is adjusted according to the user's request. This allows the user to easily obtain the optimal travel plan for themselves. The travel plan suggestion system also reflects real-time information. For example, it has a function to dynamically adjust the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. This prevents travel problems before they occur. Users can always obtain a plan based on the latest information and enjoy their trip with peace of mind. This makes it easy for people who have decided where they want to go but are short on time or knowledge and find it difficult to plan their trip. For example, busy businessmen and first-time travelers can enjoy a fulfilling trip by simply following the plan proposed by the generation AI. The travel plan suggestion system also reflects real-time information. For example, it has a function to dynamically adjust the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions.This will prevent any troubles during the trip, and users will always be able to get plans based on the latest information, allowing them to enjoy their trip with peace of mind.
[0029] The travel plan proposal system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, a generation unit, a provision unit, and a real-time data reflection unit. The reception unit accepts input from a user of a desired destination. For example, the user need only input specific tourist spots or city names. The reception unit can accept information such as, for example, "I want to go to Kyoto." The generation unit uses a generation AI to generate a travel plan based on the information accepted by the reception unit. The generation AI references a database of tourist spots and determines the order in which to visit the tourist spots based on the user's preferences. For example, the generation AI proposes an order for efficiently visiting Kyoto's famous tourist spots. The generation unit also proposes transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options. For example, the generation AI proposes transportation options that take train and bus timetables into account, accommodation options that fit the user's budget, and dining options where users can enjoy local specialties. Some or all of the above-described processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). The provision unit provides the travel plan generated by the generation unit to the user. The providing unit customizes the travel plan according to, for example, the user's wishes and restrictions. For example, the plan is adjusted according to the user's requests, such as when the user wants to visit a specific tourist spot or travel at a specific time. The real-time data reflecting unit reflects real-time data based on the travel plan provided by the providing unit. The real-time data reflecting unit dynamically adjusts the plan, taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. This makes it possible to prevent trouble during travel. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the real-time data reflecting unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). As a result, the travel plan suggestion system according to the embodiment can generate an optimal travel plan based on the user's desired destinations and reflect real-time data to provide the user with an optimal travel plan.
[0030] The reception unit can accept detailed input from the user.

Furthermore, the generation unit can refer to the number of visitors to the tourist attractions and determine the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. This makes it possible to provide an efficient travel plan by referring to the database of tourist attractions and determining the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the database of tourist attractions into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data.
[0033] The generation unit can suggest transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options. Examples of transportation options include, but are not limited to, trains, buses, taxis, and rental cars. Examples of accommodation options include, but are not limited to, hotels, inns, guesthouses, and guesthouses. Examples of dining options include, but are not limited to, restaurants, cafes, and fast food restaurants. The generation unit can suggest transportation options taking into account, for example, train timetables. The generation unit can also suggest accommodation options based on the user's budget. The generation unit can also suggest dining options where local specialties can be enjoyed. In this way, by suggesting transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input data on transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data.
[0034] The providing unit can customize the travel plan according to the user's wishes and constraints. Examples of the user's wishes and constraints include, but are not limited to, a desire to visit a specific tourist spot or a desire to travel during a specific time period. For example, if the user wishes to visit a specific tourist spot, the providing unit customizes the plan to include that tourist spot. Furthermore, if the user wishes to travel during a specific time period, the providing unit can also customize the plan to match that time period. This allows the travel plan to be customized according to the user's wishes and constraints, thereby providing an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-described processing in the providing unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the providing unit can input the user's wishes and constraints into AI, which then analyzes the information.
[0035] The real-time data reflecting unit can dynamically adjust the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. Real-time data includes, but is not limited to, weather information, traffic information, and event information. The real-time data reflecting unit adjusts the plan taking into account, for example, weather information. The real-time data reflecting unit can also adjust the plan taking into account traffic information. The real-time data reflecting unit can also adjust the plan taking into account event information. In this way, by dynamically adjusting the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions, it is possible to prevent trouble during travel. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the real-time data reflecting unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the real-time data reflecting unit can input weather information and traffic information into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and adjust the plan.
[0036] The reception unit can analyze the user's past travel history and suggest the optimal input method. For example, the reception unit can automatically display places that the user has frequently visited in the past as candidates. The reception unit can also prioritize suggesting input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has used in the past. The reception unit can also predict and suggest places that the user will visit during a specific time period based on the user's past travel history. In this way, by analyzing the user's past travel history, the optimal input method for the user can be suggested. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's past travel history data into a generation AI, which can analyze the data and suggest the optimal input method.
[0037] When a user inputs a desired destination, the reception unit can present input candidates based on the user's current interests. For example, the reception unit can present related place candidates based on tourist attractions or events recently searched by the user. The reception unit can also suggest related tourist attractions based on places the user has "liked" on social media. The reception unit can also present places that the user may be interested in based on the content of articles or blogs the user has recently read. This allows the system to provide the user with an optimal travel plan by presenting input candidates based on the user's current interests. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's interest data into a generation AI, which can then analyze the data and present input candidates.
[0038] The reception unit can select the optimal input means according to the user's input method when inputting a desired destination. For example, the reception unit can automatically set the desired destination simply by the user inputting "I want to go to Kyoto" by voice. The reception unit can also display related tourist destination candidates when the user inputs "Kyoto" by text. The reception unit can also present tourist destinations related to the image as candidates when the user uploads an image. This allows the optimal input means to be selected according to the user's input method, thereby providing the user with an optimal input experience. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's input data to a generation AI, which can analyze the data and select the optimal input means.
[0039] When the user inputs a desired destination, the reception unit can prioritize presenting highly relevant locations in consideration of the user's geographical location information. For example, the reception unit can prioritize presenting tourist spots close to the user's current location. The reception unit can also prioritize presenting tourist spots close to places the user has previously visited. The reception unit can also prioritize presenting tourist spots that are easily accessible in consideration of the user's mode of transportation from the user's current location. This allows the user to be provided with an optimal travel plan by prioritizing highly relevant locations in consideration of the user's geographical location information. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's geographical location information to a generation AI, which can analyze the data and present highly relevant locations.

The reception unit can also suggest related tourist spots based on the activity of the user's friends on social media. In this way, by analyzing the user's social media activity, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's social media activity data into a generation AI, which can analyze the data and suggest related places.
[0041] The reception unit can customize the input method by reflecting the user's past feedback when inputting a destination. For example, the reception unit preferentially suggests input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has previously preferred. The reception unit can also avoid input methods that the user has previously dissatisfied with and suggest alternative methods. The reception unit can also customize the optimal input method based on the user's past feedback. In this way, by customizing the input method by reflecting the user's past feedback, it is possible to provide the user with an optimal input experience. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's past feedback data into a generation AI, which can then analyze the data to customize the input method.
[0042] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can improve the accuracy of the plan by referring to the user's past travel history.

The generation unit can also suggest a route that avoids crowds based on the user's past travel history. The generation unit can also analyze the user's past travel history and suggest the most efficient travel plan. In this way, by referring to the user's past travel history, it is possible to provide the user with an optimal travel plan. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the user's past travel history data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data to improve the accuracy of the plan.
[0043] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can analyze the user's profile data in detail and propose an optimal plan. The generation unit can propose optimal tourist spots based on profile data such as the user's age, gender, and hobbies. The generation unit can also propose an optimal travel plan taking into account the user's budget and length of stay. The generation unit can also propose an optimal travel plan based on the user's past travel history and feedback. In this way, by analyzing the user's profile data in detail, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the user's profile data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and propose an optimal plan.
[0044] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can refer to a database of tourist attractions and reflect the latest information. For example, the generation unit can propose an optimal visiting order, taking into account the business hours and regular holidays of tourist attractions. The generation unit can also propose an optimal travel plan based on the latest event information at tourist attractions. The generation unit can also reflect the congestion status of tourist attractions in real time and propose optimal visiting times. In this way, by referring to the database of tourist attractions and reflecting the latest information, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input a database of tourist attractions into the generation AI, which can analyze the data and reflect the latest information.
[0045] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can determine the priority of the plan based on the time of submission by the user. For example, if the user submits the plan early, the generation unit can prioritize generating a detailed travel plan. Furthermore, if the user submits the plan at the last minute, the generation unit can also prioritize a concise travel plan that can be generated quickly. Furthermore, if the user is participating in a specific event, the generation unit can also prioritize generating a travel plan that is tailored to the event. In this way, by determining the priority of plans based on the time of submission by the user, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the user's submission time data into the generation AI, which can analyze the data and determine the priority of the plans.
[0046] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can adjust the order of the plan based on the user's relevance. For example, the generation unit can suggest an order in which to visit tourist spots that the user is interested in, with priority. The generation unit can also suggest an order in which to visit tourist spots that are highly relevant, with priority, based on the user's past travel history. The generation unit can also suggest an order in which to visit tourist spots that are highly relevant, with priority, based on the user's profile data. By adjusting the order of the plan based on the user's relevance, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the user's relevance data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and adjust the order of the plan.
[0047] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can adjust the use of technical terminology in the plan according to the user's level of expertise. For example, if the user is a novice traveler, the generation unit can avoid technical terminology and explain things in simple terms. Furthermore, if the user is an experienced traveler, the generation unit can also provide detailed explanations using technical terminology. The generation unit can also adjust the optimal level of technical terminology use based on the user's profile data. This allows the optimal travel plan for the user to be provided by adjusting the use of technical terminology in the plan according to the user's level of expertise. Some or all of the above-described processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the user's level of expertise data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and adjust the use of technical terminology.
[0048] When providing a travel plan, the providing unit can optimize the delivery method by referring to the user's past feedback. For example, the providing unit prioritizes the use of a delivery method (email, app notification, etc.) that the user has previously preferred. The providing unit can also avoid a delivery method that the user has previously dissatisfied with and use a different method. The providing unit can also customize the optimal delivery method based on the user's past feedback. In this way, the delivery method can be optimized by referring to the user's past feedback, thereby providing the optimal delivery method for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the providing unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the providing unit can input the user's past feedback data into a generation AI, which can analyze the data to optimize the delivery method.

[0060] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0061] The generation unit can collect the user's ratings of past travel plans and reflect them in the next plan generation. For example, tourist spots that the user has previously rated highly can be included preferentially. Tourist spots that the user has previously rated poorly can also be excluded. Furthermore, similar tourist spots can be suggested based on the user's ratings. This makes it possible to provide an optimal travel plan that reflects the user's past ratings.
[0062] The provision unit can collect data on the user's behavior during the trip and adjust the plan in real time. For example, if the user visits a tourist spot earlier than planned, the next tourist spot can be suggested early. Also, if the user is running behind schedule, the plan can be adjusted to make the schedule more reasonable. Furthermore, if the user stays at a particular location for a long time, additional information related to that location can be provided. This makes it possible to provide a flexible travel plan that matches the user's behavior.
[0063] The generation unit can analyze photos and videos taken during the user's trip and reflect them in the next travel plan. For example, tourist spots where the user has taken many photos can be prioritized for inclusion in the next plan. It can also suggest activities for which the user has taken videos in the next plan. Furthermore, if the user has taken photos based on a specific theme, tourist spots related to that theme can be suggested. This makes it possible to provide the user with an optimal travel plan based on their interests.
[0064] The generation unit can analyze the success rate of the user's past travel plans and reflect this in the generation of the next plan. For example, elements of plans that the user has previously succeeded in can be incorporated into the next plan. Elements of plans that the user has previously failed in can also be avoided. Furthermore, similar plans can be suggested based on the user's success rate. This makes it possible to provide an optimal travel plan that reflects the user's past successful experiences.
[0065] The real-time data reflecting unit can provide real-time data taking into account the user's current activity level. For example, if the user is actively moving, the unit can prioritize suggesting the next activity. Also, if the user is taking a break, the unit can suggest places and activities where the user can relax. Furthermore, if the user stays in a particular place for a long time, the unit can provide additional information related to that place. This makes it possible to provide optimal real-time data according to the user's activity level.
[0066] The processing flow of the first embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0067] Step 1: The reception unit accepts input from the user about the place they want to go. The user only needs to input the specific tourist spot or city name. For example, the reception unit accepts information input by the user such as "I want to go to Kyoto." Step 2: The generation unit uses the generation AI to generate a travel plan based on the information received by the reception unit. The generation AI references a database of tourist attractions and determines the order in which to visit the tourist attractions based on the user's preferences. It also suggests transportation methods, accommodations, and places to eat. For example, it suggests transportation methods that take train and bus timetables into account, accommodations that fit the user's budget, and places to eat where you can enjoy local specialties. Step 3: The provider provides the travel plan generated by the generator to the user. The provider customizes the travel plan according to the user's wishes and restrictions. For example, if the user wants to visit a specific tourist spot or travel during a specific time period, the plan is adjusted according to the user's requests. Step 4: The real-time data reflecting unit reflects real-time data based on the travel plan provided by the providing unit. The real-time data reflecting unit dynamically adjusts the plan, taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. This makes it possible to prevent trouble during the trip.
[0068] (Example 2) In an embodiment of the present invention, a travel plan proposal system allows a user to input desired destinations, and a generation AI generates an optimal travel plan and provides it to the user. The travel plan proposal system allows a user to input desired destinations, and a generation AI generates an optimal travel plan based on the destinations. This plan includes the order in which tourist attractions are visited, transportation options, accommodations, and dining options. The generated plan is customized according to the user's preferences and constraints. For example, the travel plan proposal system allows a user to input desired destinations. For example, the user may simply input specific tourist attractions and city names. The travel plan proposal system then uses a generation AI to analyze the input information and generate an optimal travel plan. The generation AI refers to a database of tourist attractions and determines the order in which tourist attractions are visited based on the user's preferences. For example, the generation AI suggests an order for efficiently touring famous tourist attractions in Kyoto. Transportation options, accommodations, and dining options are also suggested. For example, the proposed travel plan may include transportation options that take train and bus timetables into account, accommodations that fit the user's budget, and dining options where users can enjoy local specialties. The generated travel plan is customized according to the user's preferences and constraints. For example, if a user wants to visit a specific tourist spot or travel at a specific time, the plan is adjusted according to the user's request. This allows the user to easily obtain the optimal travel plan for themselves. The travel plan suggestion system also reflects real-time information. For example, it has a function to dynamically adjust the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. This prevents travel problems before they occur. Users can always obtain a plan based on the latest information and enjoy their trip with peace of mind. This makes it easy for people who have decided where they want to go but are short on time or knowledge and find it difficult to plan their trip. For example, busy businessmen and first-time travelers can enjoy a fulfilling trip by simply following the plan proposed by the generation AI. The travel plan suggestion system also reflects real-time information. For example, it has a function to dynamically adjust the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions.This will prevent any troubles during the trip, and users will always be able to get plans based on the latest information, allowing them to enjoy their trip with peace of mind.
[0069] The travel plan proposal system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, a generation unit, a provision unit, and a real-time data reflection unit. The reception unit accepts input from a user of a desired destination. For example, the user need only input specific tourist spots or city names. The reception unit can accept information such as, for example, "I want to go to Kyoto." The generation unit uses a generation AI to generate a travel plan based on the information accepted by the reception unit. The generation AI references a database of tourist spots and determines the order in which to visit the tourist spots based on the user's preferences. For example, the generation AI proposes an order for efficiently visiting Kyoto's famous tourist spots. The generation unit also proposes transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options. For example, the generation AI proposes transportation options that take train and bus timetables into account, accommodation options that fit the user's budget, and dining options where users can enjoy local specialties. Some or all of the above-described processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). The provision unit provides the travel plan generated by the generation unit to the user. The providing unit customizes the travel plan according to, for example, the user's wishes and restrictions. For example, the plan is adjusted according to the user's requests, such as when the user wants to visit a specific tourist spot or travel at a specific time.

For example, the generation unit can input the user's profile data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data.
[0072] The generation unit can refer to a database of tourist attractions and determine the order in which tourist attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. The database of tourist attractions includes, for example, but is not limited to, the names, locations, ratings, and number of visitors of the tourist attractions. For example, the generation unit can refer to the names of the tourist attractions and determine the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. The generation unit can also refer to the locations of the tourist attractions and determine the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. The generation unit can also refer to the ratings of the tourist attractions and determine the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. Furthermore, the generation unit can refer to the number of visitors to the tourist attractions and determine the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. This makes it possible to provide an efficient travel plan by referring to the database of tourist attractions and determining the order in which the attractions should be visited based on the user's preferences. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the database of tourist attractions into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data.
[0073] The generation unit can suggest transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options. Examples of transportation options include, but are not limited to, trains, buses, taxis, and rental cars. Examples of accommodation options include, but are not limited to, hotels, inns, guesthouses, and guesthouses. Examples of dining options include, but are not limited to, restaurants, cafes, and fast food restaurants. The generation unit can suggest transportation options taking into account, for example, train timetables. The generation unit can also suggest accommodation options based on the user's budget. The generation unit can also suggest dining options where local specialties can be enjoyed. In this way, by suggesting transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input data on transportation options, accommodation options, and dining options into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data.
[0074] The providing unit can customize the travel plan according to the user's wishes and constraints. Examples of the user's wishes and constraints include, but are not limited to, a desire to visit a specific tourist spot or a desire to travel during a specific time period. For example, if the user wishes to visit a specific tourist spot, the providing unit customizes the plan to include that tourist spot. Furthermore, if the user wishes to travel during a specific time period, the providing unit can also customize the plan to match that time period. This allows the travel plan to be customized according to the user's wishes and constraints, thereby providing an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-described processing in the providing unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the providing unit can input the user's wishes and constraints into AI, which then analyzes the information.
[0075] The real-time data reflecting unit can dynamically adjust the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. Real-time data includes, but is not limited to, weather information, traffic information, and event information. The real-time data reflecting unit adjusts the plan taking into account, for example, weather information. The real-time data reflecting unit can also adjust the plan taking into account traffic information. The real-time data reflecting unit can also adjust the plan taking into account event information. In this way, by dynamically adjusting the plan taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions, it is possible to prevent trouble during travel. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the real-time data reflecting unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the real-time data reflecting unit can input weather information and traffic information into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and adjust the plan.
[0076] The reception unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the input method for the destination based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the reception unit can provide a simple interface and minimize input steps. Furthermore, if the user is relaxed, the reception unit can provide detailed input options and suggest a customizable input method. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the reception unit can prioritize voice input to enable the user to quickly input the destination. This allows the input method to be adjusted according to the user's emotions, thereby providing an optimal input experience for the user. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, such as an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI can be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's emotion data into a generation AI, which can then analyze the data and adjust the input method.
[0077] The reception unit can analyze the user's past travel history and suggest the optimal input method. For example, the reception unit can automatically display places that the user has frequently visited in the past as candidates. The reception unit can also prioritize suggesting input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has used in the past. The reception unit can also predict and suggest places that the user will visit during a specific time period based on the user's past travel history. In this way, by analyzing the user's past travel history, the optimal input method for the user can be suggested. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's past travel history data into a generation AI, which can analyze the data and suggest the optimal input method.
[0078] When a user inputs a desired destination, the reception unit can present input candidates based on the user's current interests. For example, the reception unit can present related place candidates based on tourist attractions or events recently searched by the user. The reception unit can also suggest related tourist attractions based on places the user has "liked" on social media. The reception unit can also present places that the user may be interested in based on the content of articles or blogs the user has recently read. This allows the system to provide the user with an optimal travel plan by presenting input candidates based on the user's current interests. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's interest data into a generation AI, which can then analyze the data and present input candidates.
[0079] The reception unit can select the optimal input means according to the user's input method when inputting a desired destination. For example, the reception unit can automatically set the desired destination simply by the user inputting "I want to go to Kyoto" by voice. The reception unit can also display related tourist destination candidates when the user inputs "Kyoto" by text. The reception unit can also present tourist destinations related to the image as candidates when the user uploads an image. This allows the optimal input means to be selected according to the user's input method, thereby providing the user with an optimal input experience. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's input data to a generation AI, which can analyze the data and select the optimal input means.
[0080] The reception unit can estimate the user's emotions and prioritize input content based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is nervous, the reception unit can prioritize displaying important input items and postpone displaying other items. Furthermore, if the user is relaxed, the reception unit can display detailed input items in order, allowing the user to freely select. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the reception unit can display only the most important input items, allowing the user to quickly complete input. This allows the user to have an optimal input experience by prioritizing input content according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, such as an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI can be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without AI.

[0081] When the user inputs a desired destination, the reception unit can prioritize presenting highly relevant locations in consideration of the user's geographical location information. For example, the reception unit can prioritize presenting tourist spots close to the user's current location. The reception unit can also prioritize presenting tourist spots close to places the user has previously visited. The reception unit can also prioritize presenting tourist spots that are easily accessible in consideration of the user's mode of transportation from the user's current location. This allows the user to be provided with an optimal travel plan by prioritizing highly relevant locations in consideration of the user's geographical location information. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's geographical location information to a generation AI, which can analyze the data and present highly relevant locations.
[0082] When the user inputs a desired destination, the reception unit can analyze the user's social media activity and suggest related places.

The reception unit can also analyze the content of the user's social media posts and suggest tourist spots that the user may be interested in. The reception unit can also suggest related tourist spots based on the activity of the user's friends on social media. In this way, by analyzing the user's social media activity, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's social media activity data into a generation AI, which can analyze the data and suggest related places.
[0083] The reception unit can customize the input method by reflecting the user's past feedback when inputting a destination. For example, the reception unit preferentially suggests input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has previously preferred. The reception unit can also avoid input methods that the user has previously dissatisfied with and suggest alternative methods. The reception unit can also customize the optimal input method based on the user's past feedback. In this way, by customizing the input method by reflecting the user's past feedback, it is possible to provide the user with an optimal input experience. Some or all of the above-described processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the reception unit can input the user's past feedback data into a generation AI, which can then analyze the data to customize the input method.
[0084] The generation unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the travel plan generation method based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the generation unit can generate a travel plan that proceeds at a leisurely pace. If the user is in a hurry, the generation unit can generate a travel plan that emphasizes the shortest route. If the user is excited, the generation unit can generate a travel plan that adds visually stimulating effects. By adjusting the travel plan generation method according to the user's emotions, it is possible to provide an optimal travel plan for the user. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, for example, an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI can be a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to such examples. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit can be performed using the generation AI, or can be performed without using the generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input the user's emotion data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and adjust the travel plan generation method.
[0085] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can improve the accuracy of the plan by referring to the user's past travel history. For example, the generation unit can suggest an optimal visiting order based on tourist spots that the user has visited in the past. The generation unit can also suggest a route that avoids crowds based on the user's past travel history. The generation unit can also analyze the user's past travel history and suggest the most efficient travel plan. In this way, by referring to the user's past travel history, it is possible to provide the user with an optimal travel plan. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI (e.g., a text generation AI or a multimodal generation AI). For example, the generation unit can input the user's past travel history data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data to improve the accuracy of the plan.
[0086] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can analyze the user's profile data in detail and propose an optimal plan. The generation unit can propose optimal tourist spots based on profile data such as the user's age, gender, and hobbies. The generation unit can also propose an optimal travel plan taking into account the user's budget and length of stay. The generation unit can also propose an optimal travel plan based on the user's past travel history and feedback.

For example, the generation unit can input the user's profile data into the generation AI, which can then analyze the data and propose an optimal plan.
[0087] When generating a travel plan, the generation unit can refer to a database of tourist attractions and reflect the latest information. For example, the generation unit can propose an optimal visiting order, taking into account the business hours and regular holidays of tourist attractions. The generation unit can also propose an optimal travel plan based on the latest event information at tourist attractions. The generation unit can also reflect the congestion status of tourist attractions in real time and propose optimal visiting times.

[0108] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0109] The reception unit can adjust the travel plan taking into account the user's current health condition. For example, if the user is tired, the reception unit can suggest a plan that includes many rest periods. Also, if the user is active, the reception unit can suggest a plan that includes many activities. Furthermore, if the user has specific health constraints, the reception unit can provide a plan that meets those constraints. This makes it possible to provide the optimal travel plan that suits the user's health condition.
[0110] The generation unit can collect the user's ratings of past travel plans and reflect them in the next plan generation. For example, tourist spots that the user has previously rated highly can be included preferentially. Tourist spots that the user has previously rated poorly can also be excluded. Furthermore, similar tourist spots can be suggested based on the user's ratings. This makes it possible to provide an optimal travel plan that reflects the user's past ratings.
[0111] The provision unit can collect data on the user's behavior during the trip and adjust the plan in real time. For example, if the user visits a tourist spot earlier than planned, the next tourist spot can be suggested early. Also, if the user is running behind schedule, the plan can be adjusted to make the schedule more reasonable. Furthermore, if the user stays at a particular location for a long time, additional information related to that location can be provided. This makes it possible to provide a flexible travel plan that matches the user's behavior.
[0112] The real-time data reflection unit can estimate the user's emotions and provide real-time tourist destination information based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is excited, popular tourist destination and event information can be provided preferentially. Also, if the user is relaxed, quiet places and relaxing activities can be suggested. Furthermore, if the user is stressed, information useful for relieving stress can be provided. This makes it possible to provide optimal real-time information according to the user's emotions.
[0113] The generation unit can analyze photos and videos taken during the user's trip and reflect them in the next travel plan. For example, tourist spots where the user has taken many photos can be prioritized for inclusion in the next plan. It can also suggest activities for which the user has taken videos in the next plan. Furthermore, if the user has taken photos based on a specific theme, tourist spots related to that theme can be suggested. This makes it possible to provide the user with an optimal travel plan based on their interests.
[0114] The providing unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of providing the travel plan based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, a detailed plan can be provided slowly. If the user is in a hurry, a concise plan can be provided quickly. Furthermore, if the user is excited, a visually appealing plan can be provided. This makes it possible to provide the travel plan at the optimal timing according to the user's emotions.
[0115] The reception unit can suggest themes for travel plans based on the user's current mood. For example, if the user is in the mood to relax, a plan including hot springs and spas can be suggested. If the user is seeking adventure, a plan including activities and outdoor activities can be suggested. Furthermore, if the user is seeking a cultural experience, a plan including museums and historical sites can be suggested. This makes it possible to provide the user with the optimal travel plan according to their mood.
[0116] The generation unit can analyze the success rate of the user's past travel plans and reflect this in the generation of the next plan. For example, elements of plans that the user has previously succeeded in can be incorporated into the next plan. Elements of plans that the user has previously failed in can also be avoided. Furthermore, similar plans can be suggested based on the user's success rate. This makes it possible to provide an optimal travel plan that reflects the user's past successful experiences.
[0117] The providing unit can estimate the user's emotions and collect feedback on the travel plan based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is satisfied, detailed feedback can be requested. If the user is dissatisfied, brief feedback can be requested. Furthermore, if the user is excited, a visually attractive feedback form can be provided. This makes it possible to collect feedback in an optimal manner according to the user's emotions.
[0118] The real-time data reflecting unit can provide real-time data taking into account the user's current activity level. For example, if the user is actively moving, the unit can prioritize suggesting the next activity. Also, if the user is taking a break, the unit can suggest places and activities where the user can relax. Furthermore, if the user stays in a particular place for a long time, the unit can provide additional information related to that place. This makes it possible to provide optimal real-time data according to the user's activity level.
[0119] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0120] Step 1: The reception unit accepts input from the user about the place they want to go. The user only needs to input the specific tourist spot or city name. For example, the reception unit accepts information input by the user such as "I want to go to Kyoto." Step 2: The generation unit uses the generation AI to generate a travel plan based on the information received by the reception unit. The generation AI references a database of tourist attractions and determines the order in which to visit the tourist attractions based on the user's preferences. It also suggests transportation methods, accommodations, and places to eat. For example, it suggests transportation methods that take train and bus timetables into account, accommodations that fit the user's budget, and places to eat where you can enjoy local specialties. Step 3: The provider provides the travel plan generated by the generator to the user. The provider customizes the travel plan according to the user's wishes and restrictions. For example, if the user wants to visit a specific tourist spot or travel during a specific time period, the plan is adjusted according to the user's requests. Step 4: The real-time data reflecting unit reflects real-time data based on the travel plan provided by the providing unit. The real-time data reflecting unit dynamically adjusts the plan, taking into account real-time data such as weather and traffic conditions. This makes it possible to prevent trouble during the trip.
[0121] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B 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 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.
[0122] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (registered trademark) (Internet search engine).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> Examples of generative AIs include the data generation model 58, such as a neural network model (e.g., a neural network model), and a neural network model (e.g., a neural network model). The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating speech, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input to the data generation model 58. 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 specification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned specification 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.
[0123] Furthermore, the processing by the data processing system 10 described above is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the smart device 14, but may also be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the smart device 14.

[0173] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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).
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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."
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.

[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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.
[0190] 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.
