[0028] (Example 1) A natural disaster warning system according to an embodiment of the present invention utilizes AI-based machine learning algorithms to identify patterns associated with natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and typhoons and issue early warnings. The system collects data related to natural disasters from sensors and databases, analyzes the data using AI, identifies patterns, and issues early warnings. For example, the system collects data from seismometers, weather observation devices, satellite data, and drones. The system then analyzes the collected data using AI and identifies natural disaster patterns using deep learning and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). Examples of patterns include minute vibrations that signal an earthquake or a sudden increase in rainfall that signals a flood. The system then issues early warnings using AI based on the identified patterns. For example, if an earthquake signal is detected, the AI immediately issues an alert and urges residents to evacuate via voice or text message. This allows residents to evacuate early and minimizes damage. The system also analyzes damage after a natural disaster occurs and prioritizes rescue efforts. For example, when an earthquake occurs, AI analyzes the damage situation and determines the priority of rescue efforts, enabling rapid and efficient rescue efforts. This enables natural disaster warning systems to provide early warnings and rapid responses to natural disasters, ensuring the safety of residents. For example, when precursors to an earthquake are detected, residents can evacuate with a few minutes to a few tens of minutes to spare. Similarly, when precursors to a flood are detected, residents can evacuate with a few hours to spare. This makes it possible to minimize damage.

Examples of seismometers include short-period seismometers and long-period seismometers. Examples of meteorological observation devices include anemometers and rain gauges. Examples of satellite data include meteorological satellite data and remote sensing data. Examples of drones include fixed-wing drones and multi-rotor drones. The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit and identifies patterns related to natural disasters. The analysis unit uses deep learning or recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to identify patterns related to natural disasters from the data. Deep learning can use algorithms such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and generative adversarial networks (GANs). The recurrent neural network (RNN) may use algorithms such as a long short-term memory (LSTM) or a gated recurrent unit (GRU).

The system collects data related to natural disasters from sensors and databases, analyzes the data using AI, identifies patterns, and issues early warnings. For example, the system collects data from seismometers, weather observation devices, satellite data, and drones. The system then analyzes the collected data using AI and identifies natural disaster patterns using deep learning and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). Examples of patterns include minute vibrations that signal an earthquake or a sudden increase in rainfall that signals a flood.

[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 analysis unit can also use an anomaly detection algorithm when identifying patterns of natural disasters. For example, the analysis unit can apply an anomaly detection algorithm to earthquake data to detect abnormal vibrations that deviate from normal vibration patterns. The analysis unit can also apply an anomaly detection algorithm to flood data to detect abnormal rainfall that deviates from normal rainfall patterns. The analysis unit can also apply an anomaly detection algorithm to typhoon data to detect abnormal wind speeds that deviate from normal wind speed patterns. Thus, by using an anomaly detection algorithm, it is possible to detect precursors to natural disasters at an earlier stage.
[0109] During data collection, the collection unit may also use environmental sensors to collect air quality data. For example, the collection unit may use environmental sensors to detect changes in atmospheric gas concentrations during an earthquake. The collection unit may also use environmental sensors to collect water quality data during a flood. Furthermore, the collection unit may use environmental sensors to measure atmospheric particulate concentrations during a typhoon. Thus, the use of environmental sensors allows for the collection of additional data related to natural disasters and allows for more accurate analysis.
[0110] When identifying patterns of natural disasters, the analysis unit can also distribute the analysis process by using cloud computing. For example, the analysis unit can improve the analysis speed by distributing the analysis of earthquake data across multiple cloud servers. In addition, the analysis unit can efficiently process large amounts of data by analyzing flood data on the cloud. Furthermore, the analysis unit can achieve real-time analysis by using cloud computing to analyze typhoon data. As a result, the efficiency of the analysis process can be significantly improved by using cloud computing.
[0111] The warning unit may also customize the content of the warning by taking into account the user's location information when issuing a voice or text message warning based on the identified pattern. For example, if an earthquake precursor is detected, the warning unit may issue a voice message providing guidance to the nearest evacuation site based on the user's location information. Also, if a flood precursor is detected, the warning unit may issue a text message indicating an evacuation route based on the user's location information. Furthermore, if a typhoon path is predicted, the warning unit may issue a warning including predicted wind speed and rainfall based on the user's location information. By taking the user's location information into account, more specific and useful warnings can be provided.
[0112] When notifying residents of an alert, the notification unit can also use social media to spread the alert. For example, if the notification unit detects signs of an earthquake, it can issue an alert through social media such as Twitter or Facebook. Also, if the notification unit detects signs of a flood, it can widely disseminate evacuation instructions through social media. Furthermore, if the path of a typhoon is predicted, the notification unit can provide the latest information in real time through social media. This makes it possible to disseminate alerts quickly and widely by utilizing social media.
[0113] When analyzing damage caused by natural disasters, the analysis unit can also use drones to collect on-site video data and use it for analysis. For example, the analysis unit can fly a drone after an earthquake to collect video of the affected area and analyze the state of collapsed buildings. The analysis unit can also fly a drone after a flood to collect video of the inundated area and analyze the damage. Furthermore, the analysis unit can fly a drone after a typhoon to check the effects of wind speed and rainfall through video and analyze the damage. In this way, by using drones, detailed on-site video data can be collected and more accurate analysis of the damage can be performed.
[0114] The collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of data collection based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, the collection unit increases the frequency of data collection and provides information in real time. If the user is relaxed, the collection unit maintains the normal frequency of data collection. If the user is facing an emergency, the collection unit immediately starts data collection and quickly provides information. This allows the timing of data collection to be optimized according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, for example, an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI may be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI.

For example, the collection unit can input the user's emotion data into the generation AI and have the generation AI adjust the timing of data collection.
[0115] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the way the analysis is presented based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, the analysis unit provides a simple, highly visible analysis result. If the user is relaxed, the analysis unit provides a detailed analysis result. If the user is facing an emergency, the analysis unit provides a quick, concise analysis result. This allows the way the analysis result is presented to be optimized according to the user's emotions.

For example, the analysis unit can input the user's emotion data into the generation AI and have the generation AI adjust the way the analysis is presented.
[0116] The warning unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the way the warning is expressed based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, the warning unit issues a simple, highly visible warning. If the user is relaxed, the warning unit issues a detailed warning.

For example, the warning unit can input user emotion data into the generation AI and have the generation AI adjust the way the warning is expressed.

The microphone 238, the speaker 240, the camera 42, and the display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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 (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) 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).
[0146] 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.
[0147] Fig. 6 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the headset type terminal 314. As shown in Fig. 6, 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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] 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.
[0150] In the headset type terminal 314, the identification process is performed by the processor 46. A identification program 60 is stored in the storage 50. 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 a control unit 46A in accordance with the identification program 60 executed on the RAM 48. Note that the headset type terminal 314 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 also perform processing similar to that of the identification processing unit 290 using these models.
[0151] 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.
[0152] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset type terminal 314. In the headset type terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the display 343 to output the result of the specific processing.

The control unit 46A transmits audio 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 audio data.
[0153] 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 AIs other than the generative AI. The AI other than the generative AI may be, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural network (CNN), recurrent neural network (RNN), generative adversarial network (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. The AI may also be an AI agent. When the processes of each of the above-mentioned parts are performed by AI, the processes may be performed in part or entirely by AI, but are not limited to these examples. The processes performed by AI, including the generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processes.
[0154] The data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. 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.

[0162] The communication I / F 44 is connected to a network 54.

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.

[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 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 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.
[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.
