[0100] Step 19:

[0101] The terminal presents the new response to the user.

[0102] Step 20:

[0103] The server continues to store updated interaction logs to help improve the accuracy of the system.

[0104] ---

[0105] These are the specific steps in programming an interactive AI system optimized for a specific industry.

[0106] Example 1

[0107] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0108] Conventional conversational AI systems have struggled to consistently provide everything from data collection to model training and customization, dialogue log accumulation and analysis, and automatic system updates to meet the specialized requirements of specific industries.

This system is configured so that each element, including the server, terminal, and user, works in cooperation with each other.

[0121] server

[0122] The server provides the following means:

[0123] 1. A means of collecting data related to a specific industry: The server obtains information related to a specific industry from external databases or specialized books. For example, in the medical industry, data is collected from PubMed and other medical databases. During this process, the data is acquired and analyzed using Python's requests library, BeautifulSoup, and Scrapy.

[0124] 2. Means for training an interactive AI model using collected data: The server uses the collected data to train an interactive AI model using Tensorflow (registered trademark) or PyTorch. Specifically, it uses natural language processing (NLP) technology to build a model that can appropriately respond to questions and requests specific to the industry.

[0125] 3. Means for generating a response to the user: The server uses an interactive artificial intelligence model to generate an appropriate response based on the input data from the user. For example, if a doctor inputs "Please tell me about patient X's allergies," the server will query the electronic medical record database and generate an appropriate response from the results.

[0126] 4. Analyzing the dialogue log and retraining the model: The server analyzes the dialogue history with the user and retrains the dialogue AI model to improve its accuracy. It uses Python's pandas and NumPy to analyze the log data and retrains the model based on the analysis results.

[0127] 5. Means for developing and updating new industry-specific dialogue packages: The server creates new dialogue packages tailored to specific industries based on analysis results and feedback, and updates the system to keep it up to date.

[0128] Terminal

[0129] The terminal provides the means to:

[0130] 1. A means to customize a company's business processes and terminology: The terminal provides an interface that reflects a company's specific business procedures and terminology within the system. For example, a customized interface can be built using a front-end framework such as React or Vue.js.

[0131] 2. Means for receiving input data from the user and transmitting it to the server in real time: The terminal uses a communication protocol (e.g., REST API or WebSocket) to transmit data input by the user to the server in real time.

[0132] 3. Means for delivering updated dialogue packages to terminals and automatically updating the system: The terminals receive the latest dialogue packages delivered from the server and automatically update the system, allowing users to always interact with the latest information.

[0133] User

[0134] The user provides the means to:

[0135] 1. Input means: A user uses an interactive AI system to input specific questions or commands into the system. For example, a specific request such as "Please tell me the allergy information of patient X" is input into a terminal.

[0136] 2. Feedback: The user provides feedback on the system's response. They evaluate whether the response is accurate or there is room for improvement, and send the feedback to the server via their device. This feedback is used to retrain the model and improve the system.

[0137] Example: AI system for medical institutions

[0138] As a specific example, an embodiment of an interactive artificial intelligence system for a medical institution will be described below:

[0139] The server collects data on medical terminology and medical procedures from medical databases and uses TensorFlow to train an interactive AI model. For example, it can collect research paper data from PubMed via an API and use it to build a neural network model.

[0140] The device connects to the hospital's electronic medical record system and provides an interface for doctors and nurses to set commonly used terms and medical procedures. This is achieved through a web application written in React.

[0141] Users (doctors and nurses) use conversational artificial intelligence in their daily medical practice. For example, when a doctor inputs "Please tell me about patient X's allergy information," the terminal sends this input data to the server, which retrieves the data from the electronic medical record, generates an appropriate response, and returns it to the terminal.

[0142] The server collects dialogue logs between users and the AI ​​and analyzes them using Python's pandas. The results of this analysis are used to retrain the model and develop a new dialogue package specialized for medical work.

[0143] When new dialogue packages are developed, the terminal receives them and updates the system, allowing users to receive more specialized and precise medical support.

[0144] Examples of prompt statements

[0145] Below are some example prompts from an AI model for healthcare:

[0146] "I'd like to see Patient X's most recent medical records. What procedures were performed?"

[0147] By inputting this prompt into a generative AI model, it is possible to extract appropriate medical information. Furthermore, it can also suggest improvements to the prompt based on the results of analyzing actual dialogue logs.

[0418] Step 1: Data collection

[0419] The server collects data related to a specific industry from external databases and specialized books. The input for this process is a specific keyword or query, and the output is related data. For example, in a system for medical institutions, the server uses the PubMed API to automatically collect literature data based on keywords such as "allergy" and "medical treatment process." The collected data is then used in subsequent model training.

[0420] Step 2: Model training

[0421] The server trains an interactive AI model based on the collected data. The input for this process is the collected data, and the output is a trained interactive AI model. Specifically, it uses machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch to build and train dialogue scenarios based on medical treatment processes using medical data. The trained model is then used to generate responses to questions from users.

[0422] Step 3: User Input

[0423] The user inputs a question or command into the system. The input for this process is text or voice input from the user, and the output is the input data. For example, a doctor might input "Please tell me about patient X's allergy information" into a terminal. This input data is used in the subsequent emotion recognition and response generation steps.

[0424] Step 4: Emotion Recognition

[0425] The device acquires emotion data from the user's facial expressions and tone of voice via a camera and microphone. The input for this process is the user's visual and audio characteristics, and the output is emotion data. Specifically, OpenCV is used to analyze the doctor's facial expressions captured by the camera to determine whether the user is feeling stressed. The emotion data is sent to the server and used in the subsequent response generation step.

[0426] Step 5: Response Generation

[0427] The server generates an appropriate response based on the user's input data and emotional data. The input for this process is the user's question or command, as well as emotional data, and the output is a response based on that. Specifically, using a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-4 (registered trademark)), if a user inputs "Please tell me Patient X's allergy information," the server generates a response based on the emotional data, such as "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, a high stress level has been detected, so special caution is required."

[0428] Step 6: Present the response

[0429] The terminal presents the generated response to the user. The input for this process is the response data received from the server, and the output is the content presented to the user. Specifically, the terminal's display and voice output function are used to notify the doctor, "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, it appears that his current stress level is high, so he requires special attention."

[0430] Step 7: Data analysis and model updating

[0431] The server collects and analyzes user-AI dialogue logs and emotional data. The inputs for this process are dialogue logs and emotional data, and the output is the analysis results and an improved dialogue model. Specifically, the accuracy of the model is improved and new insights are extracted based on the dialogue logs and emotional data, and the model is retrained using TensorFlow. The analysis results are used to develop new industry-specific dialogue packages and update the system.

This system is configured so that each element, including the server, terminal, and user, works in cooperation with each other.

[0595] server

[0596] The server provides the following means:

[0597] 1. A means of collecting data related to a specific industry: The server obtains information related to a specific industry from external databases or specialized books. For example, in the medical industry, data is collected from PubMed and other medical databases. During this process, the data is acquired and analyzed using Python's requests library, BeautifulSoup, and Scrapy.

[0598] 2. Means for training a conversational AI model using the collected data: The server uses the collected data to train a conversational AI model using TensorFlow or PyTorch. Specifically, it uses natural language processing (NLP) techniques to build a model that can appropriately respond to questions and requests specific to the industry.

[0599] 3. Means for generating a response to the user: The server uses an interactive artificial intelligence model to generate an appropriate response based on the input data from the user. For example, if a doctor inputs "Please tell me about patient X's allergies," the server will query the electronic medical record database and generate an appropriate response from the results.

[0600] 4. Analyzing the dialogue log and retraining the model: The server analyzes the dialogue history with the user and retrains the dialogue AI model to improve its accuracy. It uses Python's pandas and NumPy to analyze the log data and retrains the model based on the analysis results.

[0601] 5. Means for developing and updating new industry-specific dialogue packages: The server creates new dialogue packages tailored to specific industries based on analysis results and feedback, and updates the system to keep it up to date.

A means to customize a company's business processes and terminology: The terminal provides an interface that reflects a company's specific business procedures and terminology within the system. For example, a customized interface can be built using a front-end framework such as React or Vue.js.

[0605] 2. Means for receiving input data from the user and transmitting it to the server in real time: The terminal uses a communication protocol (e.g., REST API or WebSocket) to transmit data input by the user to the server in real time.

[0606] 3. Means for delivering updated dialogue packages to terminals and automatically updating the system: The terminals receive the latest dialogue packages delivered from the server and automatically update the system, allowing users to always interact with the latest information.

[0607] User

[0608] The user provides the means to:

[0609] 1. Input means: A user uses an interactive AI system to input specific questions or commands into the system. For example, a specific request such as "Please tell me the allergy information of patient X" is input into a terminal.

[0610] 2. Feedback: The user provides feedback on the system's response. They evaluate whether the response is accurate or there is room for improvement, and send the feedback to the server via their device. This feedback is used to retrain the model and improve the system.

[0611] Example: AI system for medical institutions

[0612] As a specific example, an embodiment of an interactive artificial intelligence system for a medical institution will be described below:

[0613] The server collects data on medical terminology and medical procedures from medical databases and uses TensorFlow to train an interactive AI model. For example, it can collect research paper data from PubMed via an API and use it to build a neural network model.

The input for this process is a specific keyword or query, and the output is related data. For example, in a system for medical institutions, the server uses the PubMed API to automatically collect literature data based on keywords such as "allergy" and "medical treatment process." The collected data is then used in subsequent model training.

[0894] Step 2: Model training

[0895] The server trains an interactive AI model based on the collected data. The input for this process is the collected data, and the output is a trained interactive AI model. Specifically, it uses machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch to build and train dialogue scenarios based on medical treatment processes using medical data. The trained model is then used to generate responses to questions from users.

[0896] Step 3: User Input

[0897] The user inputs a question or command into the system. The input for this process is text or voice input from the user, and the output is the input data. For example, a doctor might input "Please tell me about patient X's allergy information" into a terminal. This input data is used in the subsequent emotion recognition and response generation steps.

[0898] Step 4: Emotion Recognition

[0899] The device acquires emotion data from the user's facial expressions and tone of voice via a camera and microphone. The input for this process is the user's visual and audio characteristics, and the output is emotion data. Specifically, OpenCV is used to analyze the doctor's facial expressions captured by the camera to determine whether the user is feeling stressed. The emotion data is sent to the server and used in the subsequent response generation step.

[0900] Step 5: Response Generation

[0901] The server generates an appropriate response based on the user's input data and emotional data. The input for this process is the user's question or command, as well as emotional data, and the output is a response based on that. Specifically, using a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-4), if a user inputs "Tell me about patient X's allergies," the server generates a response based on the emotional data, such as "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, a high stress level has been detected, so special care is required."

[0902] Step 6: Present the response

[0903] The terminal presents the generated response to the user. The input for this process is the response data received from the server, and the output is the content presented to the user. Specifically, the terminal's display and voice output function are used to notify the doctor, "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, it appears that his current stress level is high, so he requires special attention."

[0904] Step 7: Data analysis and model updating

[0905] The server collects and analyzes user-AI dialogue logs and emotional data. The inputs for this process are dialogue logs and emotional data, and the output is the analysis results and an improved dialogue model. Specifically, the accuracy of the model is improved and new insights are extracted based on the dialogue logs and emotional data, and the model is retrained using TensorFlow. The analysis results are used to develop new industry-specific dialogue packages and update the system.

This system is configured so that each element, including the server, terminal, and user, works in cooperation with each other.

[1069] server

[1070] The server provides the following means:

[1071] 1. A means of collecting data related to a specific industry: The server obtains information related to a specific industry from external databases or specialized books. For example, in the medical industry, data is collected from PubMed and other medical databases. During this process, the data is acquired and analyzed using Python's requests library, BeautifulSoup, and Scrapy.

[1072] 2. Means for training a conversational AI model using the collected data: The server uses the collected data to train a conversational AI model using TensorFlow or PyTorch. Specifically, it uses natural language processing (NLP) techniques to build a model that can appropriately respond to questions and requests specific to the industry.

[1073] 3. Means for generating a response to the user: The server uses an interactive artificial intelligence model to generate an appropriate response based on the input data from the user. For example, if a doctor inputs "Please tell me about patient X's allergies," the server will query the electronic medical record database and generate an appropriate response from the results.

[1074] 4. Analyzing the dialogue log and retraining the model: The server analyzes the dialogue history with the user and retrains the dialogue AI model to improve its accuracy. It uses Python's pandas and NumPy to analyze the log data and retrains the model based on the analysis results.

The input for this process is a specific keyword or query, and the output is related data. For example, in a system for medical institutions, the server uses the PubMed API to automatically collect literature data based on keywords such as "allergy" and "medical treatment process." The collected data is then used in subsequent model training.

[1368] Step 2: Model training

[1369] The server trains an interactive AI model based on the collected data. The input for this process is the collected data, and the output is a trained interactive AI model. Specifically, it uses machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch to build and train dialogue scenarios based on medical treatment processes using medical data. The trained model is then used to generate responses to questions from users.

[1370] Step 3: User Input

[1371] The user inputs a question or command into the system. The input for this process is text or voice input from the user, and the output is the input data. For example, a doctor might input "Please tell me about patient X's allergy information" into a terminal. This input data is used in the subsequent emotion recognition and response generation steps.

[1372] Step 4: Emotion Recognition

[1373] The device acquires emotion data from the user's facial expressions and tone of voice via a camera and microphone. The input for this process is the user's visual and audio characteristics, and the output is emotion data. Specifically, OpenCV is used to analyze the doctor's facial expressions captured by the camera to determine whether the user is feeling stressed. The emotion data is sent to the server and used in the subsequent response generation step.

[1374] Step 5: Response Generation

[1375] The server generates an appropriate response based on the user's input data and emotional data. The input for this process is the user's question or command, as well as emotional data, and the output is a response based on that. Specifically, using a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-4), if a user inputs "Tell me about patient X's allergies," the server generates a response based on the emotional data, such as "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, a high stress level has been detected, so special care is required."

[1376] Step 6: Present the response

[1377] The terminal presents the generated response to the user. The input for this process is the response data received from the server, and the output is the content presented to the user. Specifically, the terminal's display and voice output function are used to notify the doctor, "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, it appears that his current stress level is high, so he requires special attention."

[1378] Step 7: Data analysis and model updating

[1379] The server collects and analyzes user-AI dialogue logs and emotional data. The inputs for this process are dialogue logs and emotional data, and the output is the analysis results and an improved dialogue model. Specifically, the accuracy of the model is improved and new insights are extracted based on the dialogue logs and emotional data, and the model is retrained using TensorFlow. The analysis results are used to develop new industry-specific dialogue packages and update the system.

[1428] Step 3:

[1429] The server analyzes the facial expression data using the DeepFace library to identify the customer's emotional state. The input is the image file sent in step 2. This data is passed to DeepFace for processing and the output is the emotion analysis result.

[1430] Step 4:

[1431] The server generates a prompt to suggest products appropriate for the customer based on their emotional state and sends a request to the external API. The input is the emotion analysis result obtained in step 3. Based on this, the server generates a prompt such as "The customer is feeling ____. Please suggest products based on this emotion," and sends it to the external API.

[1432] Step 5:

[1433] An external API generates product suggestions based on the prompt sent. The input is the prompt sent in step 4. The API parses it and generates a list of relevant products. The output is the data of the recommended products.

[1434] Step 6:

[1435] The server receives the product suggestions obtained from the external API. The input is the product list data generated in step 5. This data is stored in the server and prepared for transmission to the device.

[1436] Step 7:

[1437] The terminal displays the product proposals received from the server to the customer. The input is the product list data received in step 6. This data is displayed on the smartphone screen, providing specific product information to be proposed to the customer.

[1438] Step 8:

This system is configured so that each element, including the server, terminal, and user, works in cooperation with each other.

[1544] server

[1545] The server provides the following means:

[1546] 1. A means of collecting data related to a specific industry: The server obtains information related to a specific industry from external databases or specialized books. For example, in the medical industry, data is collected from PubMed and other medical databases. During this process, the data is acquired and analyzed using Python's requests library, BeautifulSoup, and Scrapy.

[1547] 2. Means for training a conversational AI model using the collected data: The server uses the collected data to train a conversational AI model using TensorFlow or PyTorch. Specifically, it uses natural language processing (NLP) techniques to build a model that can appropriately respond to questions and requests specific to the industry.

[1548] 3. Means for generating a response to the user: The server uses an interactive artificial intelligence model to generate an appropriate response based on the input data from the user. For example, if a doctor inputs "Please tell me about patient X's allergies," the server will query the electronic medical record database and generate an appropriate response from the results.

[1549] 4. Analyzing the dialogue log and retraining the model: The server analyzes the dialogue history with the user and retrains the dialogue AI model to improve its accuracy. It uses Python's pandas and NumPy to analyze the log data and retrains the model based on the analysis results.

[1550] 5. Means for developing and updating new industry-specific dialogue packages: The server creates new dialogue packages tailored to specific industries based on analysis results and feedback, and updates the system to keep it up to date.

[1551] Terminal

[1552] The terminal provides the means to:

[1553] 1. A means to customize a company's business processes and terminology: The terminal provides an interface that reflects a company's specific business procedures and terminology within the system. For example, a customized interface can be built using a front-end framework such as React or Vue.js.

[1554] 2. Means for receiving input data from the user and transmitting it to the server in real time: The terminal uses a communication protocol (e.g., REST API or WebSocket) to transmit data input by the user to the server in real time.

[1555] 3. Means for delivering updated dialogue packages to terminals and automatically updating the system: The terminals receive the latest dialogue packages delivered from the server and automatically update the system, allowing users to always interact with the latest information.

[1556] User

[1557] The user provides the means to:

[1558] 1. Input means: A user uses an interactive AI system to input specific questions or commands into the system. For example, a specific request such as "Please tell me the allergy information of patient X" is input into a terminal.

[1559] 2. Feedback: The user provides feedback on the system's response. They evaluate whether the response is accurate or there is room for improvement, and send the feedback to the server via their device. This feedback is used to retrain the model and improve the system.

[1560] Example: AI system for medical institutions

[1561] As a specific example, an embodiment of an interactive artificial intelligence system for a medical institution will be described below:

[1562] The server collects data on medical terminology and medical procedures from medical databases and uses TensorFlow to train an interactive AI model. For example, it can collect research paper data from PubMed via an API and use it to build a neural network model.

[1563] The device connects to the hospital's electronic medical record system and provides an interface for doctors and nurses to set commonly used terms and medical procedures. This is achieved through a web application written in React.

[1564] Users (doctors and nurses) use conversational artificial intelligence in their daily medical practice. For example, when a doctor inputs "Please tell me about patient X's allergy information," the terminal sends this input data to the server, which retrieves the data from the electronic medical record, generates an appropriate response, and returns it to the terminal.

[1565] The server collects dialogue logs between users and the AI ​​and analyzes them using Python's pandas. The results of this analysis are used to retrain the model and develop a new dialogue package specialized for medical work.

[1566] When new dialogue packages are developed, the terminal receives them and updates the system, allowing users to receive more specialized and precise medical support.

[1567] Examples of prompt statements

[1568] Below are some example prompts from an AI model for healthcare:

[1569] "I'd like to see Patient X's most recent medical records. What procedures were performed?"

[1570] By inputting this prompt into a generative AI model, it is possible to extract appropriate medical information. Furthermore, it can also suggest improvements to the prompt based on the results of analyzing actual dialogue logs.

The input for this process is a specific keyword or query, and the output is related data. For example, in a system for medical institutions, the server uses the PubMed API to automatically collect literature data based on keywords such as "allergy" and "medical treatment process." The collected data is then used in subsequent model training.

[1843] Step 2: Model training

[1844] The server trains an interactive AI model based on the collected data. The input for this process is the collected data, and the output is a trained interactive AI model. Specifically, it uses machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch to build and train dialogue scenarios based on medical treatment processes using medical data. The trained model is then used to generate responses to questions from users.

[1845] Step 3: User Input

[1846] The user inputs a question or command into the system. The input for this process is text or voice input from the user, and the output is the input data. For example, a doctor might input "Please tell me about patient X's allergy information" into a terminal. This input data is used in the subsequent emotion recognition and response generation steps.

[1847] Step 4: Emotion Recognition

[1848] The device acquires emotion data from the user's facial expressions and tone of voice via a camera and microphone. The input for this process is the user's visual and audio characteristics, and the output is emotion data. Specifically, OpenCV is used to analyze the doctor's facial expressions captured by the camera to determine whether the user is feeling stressed. The emotion data is sent to the server and used in the subsequent response generation step.

[1849] Step 5: Response Generation

[1850] The server generates an appropriate response based on the user's input data and emotional data. The input for this process is the user's question or command, as well as emotional data, and the output is a response based on that. Specifically, using a generative AI model (e.g., GPT-4), if a user inputs "Tell me about patient X's allergies," the server generates a response based on the emotional data, such as "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, a high stress level has been detected, so special care is required."

[1851] Step 6: Present the response

[1852] The terminal presents the generated response to the user. The input for this process is the response data received from the server, and the output is the content presented to the user. Specifically, the terminal's display and voice output function are used to notify the doctor, "Patient X's allergy information is ____. Also, it appears that his current stress level is high, so he requires special attention."

[1853] Step 7: Data analysis and model updating

[1854] The server collects and analyzes user-AI dialogue logs and emotional data. The inputs for this process are dialogue logs and emotional data, and the output is the analysis results and an improved dialogue model. Specifically, the accuracy of the model is improved and new insights are extracted based on the dialogue logs and emotional data, and the model is retrained using TensorFlow. The analysis results are used to develop new industry-specific dialogue packages and update the system.

[1898] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1899] Step 1:

[1900] The device captures the customer's facial expressions and tone of voice using a camera and microphone. The input is the customer's facial expression data and voice data. This data is collected in real time and saved as image and audio files.

[1901] Step 2:

[1902] The device sends the collected facial expression data and voice data to the server. The input is the image and voice files collected in step 1. Uploading this to the server enables emotion analysis.

[1903] Step 3:

[1904] The server analyzes the facial expression data using the DeepFace library to identify the customer's emotional state. The input is the image file sent in step 2. This data is passed to DeepFace for processing and the output is the emotion analysis result.

[1905] Step 4:

[1906] The server generates a prompt to suggest products appropriate for the customer based on their emotional state and sends a request to the external API. The input is the emotion analysis result obtained in step 3. Based on this, the server generates a prompt such as "The customer is feeling ____. Please suggest products based on this emotion," and sends it to the external API.

[1907] Step 5:

[1908] An external API generates product suggestions based on the prompt sent. The input is the prompt sent in step 4. The API parses it and generates a list of relevant products. The output is the data of the recommended products.

[1909] Step 6:

[1910] The server receives the product suggestions obtained from the external API. The input is the product list data generated in step 5. This data is stored in the server and prepared for transmission to the device.

[1911] Step 7:

[1912] The terminal displays the product proposals received from the server to the customer. The input is the product list data received in step 6. This data is displayed on the smartphone screen, providing specific product information to be proposed to the customer.

[1913] Step 8:

[1914] The user provides feedback on the proposed product. The input is the product information displayed in step 7. The user enters their satisfaction level and opinions about the product and sends them to the server via their terminal.

[1915] Step 9:

[1916] The server analyzes the collected feedback data and uses it to retrain the AI ​​model. The input is the feedback data obtained in step 8. The output is a new and improved AI model.

[1917] In this way, a system is completed that provides personalized product suggestions based on the user's emotional state.

[1918] 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.

[1919] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. 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 voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. 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.

[1920] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the robot 414.

[1921] 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.

[1922] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating 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 actions arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion includes both affect 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.

[1923] 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.

[1924] 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).

[1925] 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. Emotions can also be created for robots, automobiles, 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on Voice Emotion Recognition and Emotional Brain Physiological Signal Analysis Systems, 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.

[1926] 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."

[1927] 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.

[1928] The system according to the present disclosure has been described above mainly with respect to the functions of the data processing device 12, but the system according to the present disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system according to the present disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system. The present disclosure may be implemented, for example, as a software program running on a personal computer or an application running on a smartphone, etc. The method according to the present disclosure may be provided to users in the form of SaaS (Software as a Service).

[1929] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by one computer 22, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be distributed and performed by a plurality of computers including the computer 22. For example, the data generation model 58 may be provided in an external device of the data processing device 12, and data may be generated in the external device in accordance with input data.

[1930] 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.

[1931] 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.

[1932] 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.

[1933] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following processors: An example of a processor 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. Another example of a processor is 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.

[1934] The hardware resource that executes the specific processing 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 processing may be a single processor.

[1935] 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.

[1936] 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.

[1937] 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.
