Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) A system according to an embodiment of the present invention utilizes electric vehicles (EVs) in undisaster-stricken areas to ensure a power supply to home medical equipment during a power outage caused by a disaster. This system collects data such as the registration status of home medical equipment, power outage status, power restoration status, road conditions, and EV vehicle information (standby status and stored power capacity). A generation AI calculates the home medical equipment requiring power supply and its priority, and assigns an appropriate EV. This ensures a power supply to home medical equipment even during a power outage caused by a disaster. For example, the system collects data such as the registration status of home medical equipment, power outage status, power restoration status, road conditions, EV vehicle standby status, and stored power capacity. The collected data is then input into a generation AI to calculate the home medical equipment requiring power supply and its priority. The generation AI analyzes the collected data and determines which households most urgently need power. The generation AI then assigns an appropriate EV based on the calculated priority. This allows for a fast and efficient power supply.
[0029] The power supply system according to the embodiment includes a collection unit, an analysis unit, an allocation unit, and a control unit. The collection unit collects data such as the registration status of home medical devices, power outage status, power recovery status, road conditions, standby status of electric vehicles, and stored power amount. For example, the collection unit can collect this data manually or using sensors. The collection unit can also acquire data via the Internet or cloud services. The analysis unit uses a generation AI to analyze the data collected by the collection unit and calculates the home medical devices requiring power supply and their priorities. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the data using statistical analysis or machine learning algorithms. The analysis unit can also use a generation AI to prioritize homes with patients using life support systems or homes experiencing prolonged power outages. The allocation unit allocates appropriate electric vehicles based on the priorities calculated by the analysis unit. For example, the allocation unit can select the most appropriate electric vehicle taking into account the remaining battery power and standby status of the electric vehicle. The allocation unit can also select an efficient route taking into account road conditions and traffic information. The control unit controls the electric vehicle allocated by the allocation unit to supply power to the home medical devices. For example, the control unit can control the EV using remote control or real-time control. The control unit can also monitor the remaining battery charge and standby status of the EV and supply power at the optimal timing. This allows the power supply system according to the embodiment to ensure a power supply to home medical devices even during a power outage caused by a disaster.
[0030] The collection unit can collect data on the registration status of home medical devices, power outage status, power outage recovery status, road conditions, and the standby status or stored power amount of electric vehicles. For example, the collection unit collects, as the registration status of home medical devices, what kind of medical devices are installed in which homes. The collection unit can also collect, as the power outage status, which areas are experiencing power outages. The collection unit can also collect, as the power outage recovery status, which areas have been restored from power outages. The collection unit can also collect, as the road conditions, which roads are passable. The collection unit can also collect, as the standby status of electric vehicles, which electric vehicles are waiting at which locations. The collection unit can also collect, as the stored power amount of electric vehicles, the remaining battery charge of each electric vehicle. By collecting the necessary data, basic information for appropriate power supply can be obtained.
[0031] The analysis unit can analyze the collected data and calculate the targets of home medical equipment requiring power supply and their priorities. The analysis unit, for example, analyzes the collected data using statistical analysis or machine learning algorithms. For example, the analysis unit determines which household most urgently needs power supply based on the collected data. The analysis unit can also use generative AI to prioritize households with patients on life support machines or households experiencing prolonged power outages. In this way, by analyzing the data, it is possible to determine which household most urgently needs power supply.
[0032] The allocation unit can allocate appropriate EVs based on the priorities calculated by the analysis unit. The allocation unit, for example, selects the most appropriate EV based on the priorities calculated by the analysis unit. For example, the allocation unit can select the most appropriate EV taking into consideration the remaining battery power and standby status of the EVs. The allocation unit can also select an efficient route taking into consideration road conditions and traffic information. As a result, by allocating appropriate EVs based on the priorities, power can be supplied quickly and efficiently.
[0033] The control unit controls the electric vehicle allocated by the allocation unit and supplies power to the home medical equipment. The control unit controls the electric vehicle allocated by the allocation unit, for example, by remote control or real-time control. For example, the control unit can monitor the remaining battery level and standby status of the electric vehicle and supply power at the optimal timing. The control unit can also select the optimal route and supply power based on the location information of the electric vehicle. In this way, by controlling the electric vehicle, power can be reliably supplied to the home medical equipment.
[0034] The analysis unit can determine that a home has a patient using a life support device or that a home has experienced a power outage for a long period of time. The analysis unit, for example, determines that a home has a patient using a life support device. For example, the analysis unit can determine that a home has a patient using a life support device such as a ventilator or dialysis machine. The analysis unit can also determine that a home has experienced a power outage for a long period of time. For example, the analysis unit can determine that a home has experienced a power outage for one hour or more. This allows power to be supplied to homes with a high level of urgency.
[0035] When collecting data, the collection unit can select an appropriate collection method by referring to past disaster data. The collection unit, for example, selects the most effective data collection method based on past disaster data. For example, the collection unit can select the optimal data collection method by referring to past power outage history and response data when a disaster occurs. The collection unit can also determine the priority of data collection in a specific area based on past disaster data. For example, the collection unit can determine the priority of data collection in a specific area based on past disaster data. In this way, the optimal data collection method can be selected by referring to past disaster data.
[0036] When collecting data, the collection unit can filter the data based on the frequency of use and importance of the medical devices in each household. For example, the collection unit prioritizes data collection from households that use medical devices frequently. For example, the collection unit can prioritize data collection from households that use medical devices frequently based on the number of times the devices are used per day and the duration of use. The collection unit can also prioritize data collection from households that use medical devices of high importance. For example, the collection unit can prioritize data collection from households that use medical devices of high importance based on the importance of the devices in relation to life support and the health status of the users. In this way, by collecting data based on the frequency of use and importance of the medical devices, it is possible to prioritize the collection of more important data.
[0037] When collecting data, the collection unit can select the optimal collection means depending on the user's input method. For example, when the user uses voice input, the collection unit prioritizes collection of voice data. For example, the collection unit can collect voice data using voice recognition technology. Furthermore, when the user uses text input, the collection unit can also prioritize collection of text data. For example, the collection unit can collect text data using text input. Furthermore, when the user uses image input, the collection unit can also prioritize collection of image data. For example, the collection unit can collect image data using image recognition technology. This enables efficient data collection by selecting the optimal collection means depending on the user's input method.
[0038] When collecting data, the collection unit can prioritize collecting highly relevant data by taking into account the user's geographical location information. The collection unit, for example, prioritizes collecting relevant data based on the user's current location. For example, the collection unit can select optimal data collection targets based on the user's geographical location information. The collection unit can also determine the priority of data collection for each region by taking into account the user's location information. For example, the collection unit can determine the priority of data collection for each region based on the user's location information. This makes it possible to prioritize collecting highly relevant data by taking into account the user's geographical location information.
[0039] When collecting data, the collection unit can analyze the user's social media activities and collect related data. The collection unit, for example, analyzes the content of the user's social media posts and collects related data. For example, the collection unit can collect related data based on the user's check-in information on social media. The collection unit can also collect related data by referring to the activities of the user's friends on social media. For example, the collection unit can collect related data by referring to the activities of the user's friends on social media. In this way, related data can be efficiently collected by analyzing the user's social media activities.
[0040] The collection unit can customize the collection method by reflecting the user's past feedback when collecting data. The collection unit selects the optimal data collection method, for example, based on the user's past feedback. For example, the collection unit can adjust the timing of data collection by reflecting the user's past feedback. The collection unit can also determine the priority of data collection by taking the user's past feedback into consideration. For example, the collection unit can determine the priority of data collection based on the user's past feedback. In this way, the optimal data collection method can be selected by reflecting the user's past feedback.
[0041] During analysis, the analysis unit can adjust the level of detail of the analysis based on the importance of the data. The analysis unit, for example, performs a detailed analysis on data of high importance. For example, the analysis unit can perform a detailed analysis on data of high importance based on the importance related to life support or the health condition of the user. The analysis unit can also perform a simplified analysis on data of low importance. For example, the analysis unit can perform a simplified summary of data of low importance. This allows for efficient analysis by adjusting the level of detail of the analysis according to the importance of the data.
[0042] During analysis, the analysis unit can apply different analysis algorithms depending on the data category. The analysis unit applies a dedicated analysis algorithm to, for example, medical device data. For example, the analysis unit can apply a dedicated analysis algorithm such as regression analysis or clustering to the medical device data. The analysis unit can also apply a dedicated analysis algorithm to power outage status data. For example, the analysis unit can apply a dedicated analysis algorithm such as deep learning to the power outage status data. The analysis unit can also apply a dedicated analysis algorithm to road condition data. For example, the analysis unit can apply a dedicated analysis algorithm such as clustering to the road condition data. This improves the accuracy of the analysis by applying an appropriate analysis algorithm depending on the data category.
[0043] During analysis, the analysis unit can improve the accuracy of the analysis by referring to the user's past analysis results. The analysis unit, for example, optimizes the analysis algorithm based on the user's past analysis results. For example, the analysis unit can tune the algorithm based on the user's past analysis results. The analysis unit can also improve the accuracy of the analysis by referring to the user's past analysis results. For example, the analysis unit can cleanse the data based on the user's past analysis results. Furthermore, the analysis unit can adjust the analysis parameters by taking the user's past analysis results into consideration. For example, the analysis unit can adjust the analysis parameters based on the user's past analysis results. In this way, the accuracy of the analysis can be improved by referring to the user's past analysis results.
[0044] During analysis, the analysis unit can determine the analysis priority based on the time when the data was collected. The analysis unit, for example, prioritizes the analysis of the most recent data. For example, the analysis unit can prioritize the analysis of the most recent data based on the collection date and time. The analysis unit can also postpone the analysis of older data. For example, the analysis unit can postpone the analysis of older data based on the collection date and time. Furthermore, the analysis unit can dynamically adjust the analysis priority based on the time when the data was collected. For example, the analysis unit can dynamically adjust the analysis priority based on the collection date and time. In this way, by determining the analysis priority based on the time when the data was collected, the most recent data can be analyzed with priority.
[0045] During analysis, the analysis unit can adjust the order of analysis based on the relevance of the data. The analysis unit, for example, prioritizes analysis of highly relevant data. For example, the analysis unit can prioritize analysis of highly relevant data using correlation analysis or a co-occurrence network. The analysis unit can also postpone analysis of less relevant data. For example, the analysis unit can postpone analysis of less relevant data using correlation analysis or a co-occurrence network. Furthermore, the analysis unit can dynamically adjust the order of analysis based on the relevance of the data. For example, the analysis unit can dynamically adjust the order of analysis using correlation analysis or a co-occurrence network. This enables efficient analysis by adjusting the order of analysis based on the relevance of the data.
[0046] During analysis, the analysis unit can adjust the use of technical terms in the analysis according to the user's level of expertise. The analysis unit evaluates the user's level of expertise based on, for example, questionnaire results or past usage history. For example, the analysis unit provides analysis results in simple language to users with little expertise. The analysis unit can also provide analysis results using detailed technical terms to users with extensive expertise. The analysis unit can also dynamically adjust the way in which the analysis results are expressed according to the user's level of expertise. For example, the analysis unit can provide analysis results in simple language to users with little expertise, and provide analysis results using detailed technical terms to users with extensive expertise. In this way, by adjusting the use of technical terms in the analysis according to the user's level of expertise, it is possible to provide analysis results that are easier to understand.

[0107] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0108] The collection unit can monitor the user's health condition and determine the priority of data collection based on the health condition. For example, the collection unit can monitor the user's vital signs, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature, in real time, and immediately start data collection if an abnormality is detected. The collection unit can also reduce the frequency of data collection when the user's health condition is stable, thereby reducing the load on the system. Furthermore, the collection unit can prioritize the collection of specific data based on the user's health condition. This enables flexible data collection according to the user's health condition.
[0109] The analysis unit can automatically generate evacuation plans in the event of a disaster based on the collected data. For example, the analysis unit analyzes data such as power outage conditions, road conditions, and shelter capacity to propose optimal evacuation routes. The analysis unit can also generate individual evacuation plans taking into account the user's place of residence and health condition. Furthermore, the analysis unit can refer to past disaster data and use evacuation plans from similar situations as a reference. This can support quick and appropriate evacuation actions in the event of a disaster.
[0110] The allocation unit can assign the most suitable driver to an EV vehicle, taking into account the driver's skills and experience.

Furthermore, the allocation unit can prioritize the allocation of drivers who are familiar with a particular area, taking into account the driver's geographical knowledge and experience. This enables safe and efficient driving.
[0111] The control unit can dynamically adjust the priority of power supply according to the remaining battery charge of the EV vehicle. For example, when the remaining battery charge is low, the control unit prioritizes power supply to a medical device of high importance. Also, when the remaining battery charge is sufficient, the control unit can simultaneously supply power to multiple medical devices. Furthermore, the control unit can adjust the power supply schedule in real time according to fluctuations in the remaining battery charge. This allows for efficient use of limited power resources.
[0112] The collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and customize the data collection method based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the collection unit can reduce the frequency of data collection to reduce the burden on the user. Also, if the user feels relieved, the collection unit can collect detailed data. Furthermore, if the user is facing an emergency, the collection unit can quickly collect data and provide necessary information immediately. This enables flexible data collection according to the user's emotions.
[0113] The analysis unit can automatically generate a supply supply plan for the event of a disaster based on the collected data. For example, the analysis unit analyzes data such as power outage conditions, road conditions, and supply inventory status to propose the optimal supply route. The analysis unit can also generate an individual supply supply plan taking into account the user's place of residence and health condition. Furthermore, the analysis unit can refer to past disaster data and use supply supply plans from similar situations as a reference. This can support the rapid and appropriate supply of supplies in the event of a disaster.
[0114] The allocation unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of allocation based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user feels anxious, the allocation unit can quickly make allocations to provide a sense of security. If the user feels relaxed, the allocation unit can also follow a normal allocation schedule. Furthermore, if the user is facing an emergency, the allocation unit can make allocations with the highest priority. This enables flexible allocation according to the user's emotions.
[0115] The control unit can estimate the emotions of the EV driver and perform a driver change based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the driver feels tired, the control unit can promptly instruct a driver change. The control unit can also follow the normal driving schedule if the driver is relaxed. Furthermore, if the driver is facing an emergency, the control unit can give top priority to a driver change. This enables flexible driving management according to the driver's emotions.
[0116] When collecting data, the collection unit can select the optimal collection timing taking into account the user's lifestyle rhythm. For example, the collection unit collects data during times when the user is active, thereby matching the data collection to the user's lifestyle rhythm. The collection unit can also refrain from collecting data during times when the user is resting, thereby reducing the burden on the user. Furthermore, the collection unit can dynamically adjust the data collection schedule based on the user's lifestyle rhythm. This enables flexible data collection according to the user's lifestyle rhythm.
[0117] The analysis unit can automatically generate a communication plan for use in the event of a disaster based on the collected data. For example, the analysis unit analyzes data such as power outage status, the status of communication infrastructure, and the user's location, and suggests the optimal means of communication. The analysis unit can also generate an individual communication plan taking into account the user's health condition and emotions. Furthermore, the analysis unit can refer to past disaster data and use communication plans from similar situations as a reference. This can support rapid and appropriate communication in the event of a disaster.

For example, the collection unit can collect this data by manual input or using sensors. The collection unit can also obtain data via the Internet or cloud services. Step 2: The analysis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the data collected by the collection unit and calculate the targets of home medical equipment requiring power supply and their priorities. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the data using statistical analysis or machine learning algorithms. The analysis unit can also use the generation AI to determine the priority of homes with patients on life support machines or homes experiencing prolonged power outages. Step 3: The allocation unit allocates appropriate EVs based on the priorities calculated by the analysis unit. For example, the allocation unit can select the most appropriate EV taking into account the remaining battery power and standby status of the EVs. The allocation unit can also select an efficient route taking into account road conditions and traffic information. Step 4: The control unit controls the EV allocated by the allocation unit and supplies power to the home medical equipment. For example, the control unit can control the EV using remote control or real-time control. The control unit can also monitor the remaining battery level and standby status of the EV and supply power at the optimal timing.

The processing by the data processing system 310 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the headset type terminal 314, but may also be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the headset type terminal 314. Furthermore, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information required for processing from the headset type terminal 314 or an external device, etc., and the headset type terminal 314 acquires or collects information required for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device, etc.
[0155] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0156] [Fourth embodiment] FIG. 7 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0157] 7, a data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0158] 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 and / or a LAN.
[0159] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication I / F 44, and a control target 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, a RAM 48, and a storage 50. The processor 46, the RAM 48, and the storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, the speaker 240, the camera 42, and the control target 443 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0160] The microphone 238 receives instructions and the like from the user by receiving voice uttered by the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice uttered by the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to instructions from the processor 46.
[0161] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an imaging element such as a CMOS image sensor or a CCD image sensor, and captures images of the user's surroundings (for example, an imaging range defined by an angle of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).
[0162] The communication I / F 44 is connected to a network 54. The communication I / Fs 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 via the network 54. The exchange of various information between the processor 46 and the processor 28 using the communication I / Fs 44 and 26 is carried out in a secure state.
[0163] The control object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the emotions of the robot 414 can be expressed by controlling these motors. In addition, the facial expressions of the robot 414 can also be expressed by controlling the light emission state of the LEDs in the eyes of the robot 414.
[0164] Fig. 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Fig. 8, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific process program 56 is stored in the storage 32.
[0165] 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 processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0166] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate a user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotion, including estimation and prediction of the user's emotion, but is not limited to these examples. Furthermore, the estimation and prediction of emotion also includes, for example, emotion analysis.
[0167] In the robot 414, the processor 46 performs the identification process. The storage 50 stores the identification program 60. The processor 46 reads the identification program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read identification program 60 on the RAM 48. The identification process is realized by the processor 46 operating as the control unit 46A in accordance with the identification program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The robot 414 also has a data generation model and an emotion identification model similar to the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59, and can perform the same process as the identification processing unit 290 using these models.
[0168] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 communicates with the server device having the data generation model 58 to obtain a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (for example, a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user.
[0169] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires voice indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits voice data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.
[0170] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of the data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 receives a prompt containing an instruction, as well as inference data such as voice data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing an image. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The identification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned identification processing using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model so as to output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. In this case, the data generation model 58 can output an inference result from a prompt that does not include an instruction. The data processing device 12 and the like include multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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).
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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."
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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.
