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

[0024] 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific process is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" according to the technology of the present disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific process is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0025] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate a user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0028] (Example 1) A learning content generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention identifies a user's cognitive characteristics and generates learning content tailored to those characteristics. The learning content generation system collects a user's learning history, answer patterns, and reaction speed, and uses AI to analyze the user's cognitive characteristics and generate optimal learning content. For example, the learning content generation system collects detailed data, such as a user's learning history, answer patterns, and reaction speed. The learning content generation system then uses AI to analyze the collected data and identify the user's cognitive characteristics. For example, the system determines whether the user prefers visual information, auditory information, or tactile information. Based on the identified cognitive characteristics, the learning content generation system then generates optimal learning content. For example, for a user who prefers visual information, the system generates learning content that makes extensive use of diagrams and graphs, while for a user who prefers auditory information, the system generates learning content that makes extensive use of audio and music. Furthermore, for a user who prefers tactile information, the system generates learning content that includes many interactive elements. This allows the learning content generation system to provide an optimal learning experience for each individual user. This allows the learning content generation system to provide optimal learning content based on the user's cognitive characteristics. For example, users who prefer visual information will find it easier to understand learning content that makes extensive use of diagrams and graphs, while users who prefer auditory information can concentrate better through audio and music, and users who prefer tactile information can learn more hands-on through interactive elements.

[0029] The learning content generation system according to the embodiment includes a collection unit, an analysis unit, and a generation unit. The collection unit collects a user's learning history, answer patterns, and reaction speed.

The collection unit can also collect the user's answer patterns. For example, the collection unit can collect data such as the correct answer rate, answer trends, and answer time. The collection unit can also collect the user's reaction speed. For example, the reaction time for a specific task can be measured in milliseconds. The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit to determine the user's cognitive characteristics. Examples of cognitive characteristics include, but are not limited to, visual cognition, auditory cognition, and memory. The analysis unit can determine, for example, whether the user prefers visual information, auditory information, or tactile information. The analysis unit uses AI to analyze the collected data and identify the user's cognitive characteristics. For example, the AI ​​analyzes the user's learning history, answer patterns, and reaction speed to determine the user's cognitive characteristics. The generation unit generates learning content based on the cognitive characteristics determined by the analysis unit. Learning content includes, but is not limited to, text, video, and interactive quizzes. For example, the generation unit generates learning content that makes extensive use of diagrams and graphs for users who prefer visual information. The generation unit can also generate learning content that makes extensive use of audio and music for users who prefer auditory information. The generation unit can also generate learning content that includes many interactive elements for users who prefer tactile information. For example, the generation unit generates interactive quizzes and simulations to enable users to learn practically. This allows the learning content generation system according to the embodiment to provide optimal learning content based on the user's cognitive characteristics. Some or all of the above-described processing by the generation unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI.For example, the generation unit can generate learning content using an AI model that takes the cognitive characteristics determined by the analysis unit as input and outputs optimal learning content.

[0030] The collection unit can analyze the user's past learning history and select a data collection method. For example, the collection unit can prioritize collection of learning methods that were effective for the user in the past.

For example, the collection unit can input the user's learning history data into a generation AI and have the generation AI select the optimal data collection method.

[0031] When collecting data, the collection unit can filter the data based on the user's current learning situation and areas of interest. For example, the collection unit collects only data related to the area the user is currently learning. The collection unit can also prioritize the collection of highly relevant data based on the user's areas of interest. The collection unit can also filter and collect only necessary data according to the user's learning progress. This makes it possible to collect highly relevant data by filtering data based on the user's current learning situation and areas of interest. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the collection unit may be performed using AI, for example, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the collection unit can input the user's learning situation data to a generation AI and have the generation AI perform filtering.

[0032] When collecting data, the collection unit can select a collection means according to the user's input method. For example, if the user prefers voice input, the collection unit can prioritize collecting voice data. Also, if the user prefers text input, the collection unit can prioritize collecting text data.

For example, the collection unit can input the user's feedback data into a generation AI and cause the generation AI to customize the collection method.

[0036] During analysis, the analysis unit can adjust the level of detail of the analysis based on the importance of the data. For example, the analysis unit performs a detailed analysis on data with high importance. The analysis unit can also perform a concise analysis on data with low importance. The analysis unit can also determine the priority of the analysis according to the importance of the data. This enables efficient analysis by adjusting the level of detail of the analysis based on the importance of the data. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the analysis unit can input the importance of the data to the generation AI and cause the generation AI to adjust the level of detail of the analysis.

For example, the analysis unit can input the relevance of the data to the generation AI and have the generation AI adjust the order of analysis.

[0041] During analysis, the analysis unit can adjust the use of technical terminology in the analysis according to the user's level of expertise. For example, the analysis unit can provide analysis results that use a lot of technical terminology to a user with high levels of expertise. The analysis unit can also provide concise and easy-to-understand analysis results to a user with low levels of expertise. The analysis unit can also adjust the way the analysis results are expressed according to the user's level of expertise. This makes it possible to provide more appropriate analysis results by adjusting the use of technical terminology in the analysis according to the user's level of expertise.

[0048] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0049] The analysis unit can estimate the user's learning style and adjust the analysis method based on the estimated learning style. For example, if the user prefers repeated learning, the analysis unit can analyze the same content multiple times from different angles. If the user prefers to process a lot of information at once, the analysis unit can provide a detailed analysis all at once. Furthermore, if the user prefers to learn in stages, the analysis unit can provide analysis results in stages. In this way, by adjusting the analysis method based on the user's learning style, more effective analysis results can be provided.

[0050] The generation unit can analyze the user's learning history and adjust the difficulty of the content based on the user's past learning results. For example, it can generate content with a high level of difficulty in areas in which the user has achieved good results in the past. It can also generate content that starts with basic content in areas in which the user is weak. It can also generate content that gradually increases in difficulty according to the user's learning progress. This allows the user to provide a more effective learning experience by adjusting the difficulty of the content based on the user's learning history.

[0051] The collection unit can detect the user's learning environment and adjust the data collection method according to the environment. For example, if the user is in a quiet environment, priority can be given to collecting voice data. Also, if the user is on the move, priority can be given to collecting text data. Furthermore, if the user is in a public place, a data collection method that takes privacy into consideration can be selected. This allows for more appropriate data collection by adjusting the data collection method according to the user's learning environment.

[0052] The analysis unit can set the user's learning goals and adjust the direction of analysis based on the goals. For example, if the user's goal is to pass a specific exam, the analysis can focus on content related to the exam. Also, if the user's goal is to acquire a specific skill, the analysis can also analyze content related to that skill. Furthermore, if the user's goal is self-improvement, the analysis can also analyze a wide range of content. In this way, by adjusting the direction of analysis based on the user's learning goals, more effective analysis results can be provided.

[0053] The generation unit can estimate the user's learning style and adjust the format of the content based on the estimated learning style. For example, if the user prefers visual learning, the generation unit can generate content that makes extensive use of diagrams and graphs. If the user prefers auditory learning, the generation unit can generate content that makes extensive use of audio and music. Furthermore, if the user prefers tactile learning, the generation unit can generate content that includes many interactive elements. In this way, by adjusting the format of the content based on the user's learning style, a more effective learning experience can be provided.

[0148] 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.

[0149] 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.

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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).

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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."

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] All publications, patent applications, and technical standards mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent application, or technical standard was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference.
