[0015] In the following embodiments, "A and / or B" is synonymous with "at least one of A and B". That is, "A and / or B" means that it may be only A, only B, or a combination of A and B. Also, in this specification, when expressing three or more matters connected by "and / or", the same concept as "A and / or B" is applied.

[0016] [First Embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. Also, the database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0019] The smart device 14 comprises a computer 36, a receiving device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. The computer 36 comprises a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The receiving device 38, output device 40, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0020] The reception device 38 is equipped with a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and accepts user input. The touch panel 38A accepts user input via touch by detecting contact with an object (e.g., a pen or finger). The microphone 38B accepts user input via voice by detecting the user's voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and microphone 38B to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 (see Figure 2) acquires the data indicating the user input.

[0021] The output device 40 includes a display 40A and a speaker 40B, and presents data to the user by outputting the data in a form perceptible to the user (e.g., audio and / or text). The display 40A displays visible information such as text and images according to instructions from the processor 46. The speaker 40B outputs audio according to instructions from the processor 46. The camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system such as a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor.

[0022] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various types of information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54.

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

[0024] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing 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" related to the technology of this 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 processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0025] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the 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 the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0026] In the smart device 14, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The specific processing program 60 is used in conjunction with the specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The smart device 14 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0027] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. The data processing device 12 may also be a server device or a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0046] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0047] The reception desk can predict security risks in real time based on user input. For example, it can instantly assess current security risks based on network configuration information entered by the user and highlight high-risk areas. The reception desk can also generate a list of security measures that can be implemented within the budget based on budget information entered by the user, in real time. Furthermore, the reception desk can compare the security measures entered by the user with past data and suggest areas for improvement. This allows users to receive immediate feedback based on their input, enabling efficient information entry.

[0048] The reception desk can provide an automatic input completion function based on the user's past input history. For example, it can automatically complete network configuration information previously entered by the user, saving input effort. It can also automatically display recommended security measures based on security measures information previously used by the user. Furthermore, it can automatically generate a list of security measures that can be implemented within the budget based on budget information previously entered by the user. This streamlines the user's input process and enables quick information entry.

[0049] The reception system can dynamically adjust the priority of input based on the user's current work situation. For example, if a user is working on an important project, it can prompt them to prioritize entering security information related to that project. If the user is performing routine tasks, it can also prioritize entering general security information. Furthermore, if the user is handling an emergency, it can prompt them to prioritize entering only the most critical information. This enables optimal information entry tailored to the user's work situation.

[0050] The analysis unit can simulate security risks based on user input. For example, it can simulate hypothetical attack scenarios based on network configuration information entered by the user and identify high-risk areas. It can also simulate the effectiveness of security measures based on security measures information entered by the user and propose optimal countermeasures. Furthermore, it can simulate combinations of countermeasures that can be implemented within a budget based on budget information entered by the user. This allows users to understand specific risk scenarios and take effective countermeasures.

[0051] The analytics unit can analyze users' social media activity and predict security risk trends. For example, it can identify current security risk trends from information users share on social media. It can also analyze the activities of users' followers and friends to predict related risks. Furthermore, it can predict future risks based on security topics that users are interested in. This allows users to stay informed about the latest risks and take appropriate measures.

[0052] The analysis unit can dynamically adjust the display order of analysis results based on the importance of the information. For example, it can display important information first so that users can quickly check it. It can also display less important information later. Furthermore, it can adjust the display order of analysis results in real time according to the importance of the information. This allows users to prioritize checking important information, enabling efficient information management.

[0053] The analysis unit can apply different analysis methods depending on the category of information. For example, for network configuration information, it can perform topology analysis to identify network vulnerabilities. For security countermeasure information, it can perform benchmark analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of the countermeasures. Furthermore, for budget information, it can perform cost-benefit analysis to propose the optimal budget allocation. By applying the most appropriate analysis method for each category of information, the accuracy of the analysis is improved.

[0054] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.

[0055] Step 1: The reception desk receives information from the user regarding the current network configuration, security measures, and budget. For example, the user enters information such as the presence or absence of a firewall, VPN usage, the status of antivirus software installation as a security measure, and the annual security measures budget. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes and evaluates the information received by the reception unit. For example, the generating AI evaluates the current security measures based on the network configuration, security measures, and budget information entered by the user. Step 3: The proposal department proposes security solutions based on the evaluation results obtained by the analysis department. For example, the generation AI proposes the optimal security solution, such as strengthening the firewall, installing new antivirus software, or changing VPN settings. Step 4: The supply department provides the user with the solution proposed by the proposal department. For example, the generation AI can provide the user with the proposed security solution and implement the most effective security measures within the budget.

[0056] (Example of form 2) The security solution provision system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that provides optimal security solutions to individual small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by inputting information such as the current network configuration, security measures, and budget into a generating AI. In this system, the user inputs information such as the current network configuration, security measures, and budget, and the generating AI analyzes the input information and performs a third-party evaluation. Based on this evaluation, the generating AI proposes the optimal security solution. The proposed solution is provided to the user, enabling them to implement the most effective security measures within their budget. For example, the user inputs information such as the presence or absence of a firewall, VPN usage, the status of antivirus software implementation as a security measure, and the annual security measures budget. The generating AI analyzes this information and evaluates the current security measures. Based on the evaluation results, the generating AI proposes the optimal security solution, such as strengthening the firewall, installing new antivirus software, or changing VPN settings. This tool allows SMEs to implement the most effective security measures within their limited budget, minimizing security risks. Thus, the security solution provision system can provide the optimal security solution based on user information.

[0057] The security solution provision system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, an analysis unit, a proposal unit, and a provision unit. The reception unit receives information from the user regarding the current network configuration, security measures, and budget. For example, the user inputs information such as the presence or absence of a firewall, VPN usage, the status of antivirus software installation as a security measure, and the annual security measures cost as a budget. The analysis unit analyzes and evaluates the information received by the reception unit. For example, the generating AI evaluates the current security measures based on the network configuration, security measures, and budget information entered by the user. The proposal unit proposes security solutions based on the evaluation results obtained by the analysis unit.

The provision unit provides the solution proposed by the proposal unit to the user. For example, the generating AI provides the proposed security solution to the user, enabling the most effective security measures to be implemented within the budget. Thus, the security solution provision system according to this embodiment can provide the optimal security solution based on the user's information.

[0058] The reception desk can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of information input based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the reception desk can temporarily suspend input and display a relaxing interface. If the user is relaxed, the reception desk can also encourage them to continue inputting information. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the reception desk can provide a simplified input form to allow for quick completion. This reduces user stress by adjusting the timing of information input according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, for example, using an emotion engine or generative AI.

[0131] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0132] As shown in Figure 7, the data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0139] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0140] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30.

[0146] 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 performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0147] The correspondence between each part and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0148] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting 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 a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[0149] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.

[0150] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.

[0151] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.

[0152] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0153] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is 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 the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has 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 ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.

[0155] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.

[0156] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to 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] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety 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 the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.

[0159] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.

[0160] The hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of one of these various processors, or it may consist of 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). Alternatively, the hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of a single processor.

[0161] Examples of configurations using a single processor include, firstly, a configuration in which one or more CPUs and software are combined to form a single processor, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that performs a specific process. Secondly, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system, including multiple hardware resources that perform a specific process, on a single IC chip, as exemplified by SoCs (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above types of processors as hardware resources.

[0162] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can more specifically utilize electrical circuits that combine circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. Also, the specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps can be deleted, new steps added, or the processing order rearranged, as long as it does not deviate from the main purpose.

[0163] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined. Also, the smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are just examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. Also, although the above-described examples were divided into two embodiments, Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, these may be combined.

For example, the above descriptions of the structure, function, operation, and effect are examples of the structure, function, operation, and effect of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that you may delete unnecessary parts, add new elements, or replace elements in the descriptions and illustrations presented above, as long as you do not deviate from the essence of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of this disclosure, explanations of common technical knowledge and other things that do not require special explanation to enable the implementation of the technical aspects of this disclosure have been omitted from the descriptions and illustrations presented above.
