The analysis unit is realized, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12, and provides data analysis and advice after training.

[0087] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0088] The suggestion unit can refer to the user's past training data and learn the user's training patterns. For example, the suggestion unit can analyze the frequency and intensity of the user's past training and suggest an optimal training plan. The suggestion unit can also evaluate the user's training progress based on the user's past training data and adjust the training plan as needed. Furthermore, the suggestion unit can use the user's past training data to predict the effectiveness of training and provide feedback to the user. This maximizes the effectiveness of training through suggestions based on the user's past training data.

[0089] The suggestion unit can optimize the training plan by referring to the user's dietary data. For example, the suggestion unit can analyze the calories and nutrients ingested by the user and adjust the intensity and content of the training. The suggestion unit can also provide advice on meals before and after training based on the user's dietary data. Furthermore, the suggestion unit can also use the user's dietary data to suggest a meal plan to maximize the effectiveness of the training. This improves the effectiveness of the training by optimizing the training plan based on the user's dietary data.

[0090] The notification unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of notifications based on the estimated user emotions. For example, the notification unit can delay the timing of notifications when the user is feeling stressed. The notification unit can also advance the timing of notifications when the user is relaxed. Furthermore, the notification unit can prioritize important notifications when the user is in a hurry. This makes notifications more effective by adjusting the timing of notifications according to the user's emotions.

[0091] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the feedback method of the analysis results based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, the analysis unit can emphasize positive feedback when the user is nervous. The analysis unit can also provide detailed feedback when the user is relaxed. Furthermore, the analysis unit can provide concise feedback when the user is in a hurry. This allows the analysis results to be communicated more effectively by adjusting the feedback method according to the user's emotions.

[0092] The input unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the order of input contents based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the input unit can display the most important input item first. Also, if the user is relaxed, the input unit can postpone detailed input options. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the input unit can display the most important input item first, allowing the user to input quickly. This allows efficient input by adjusting the order of input contents according to the user's emotion.

[0093] The suggestion unit can evaluate the safety of a training course by taking into account the user's geographical location information. For example, the suggestion unit can suggest a course with low traffic volume based on the user's current location. The suggestion unit can also prioritize suggesting areas with low crime rates based on the user's geographical location information. Furthermore, the suggestion unit can also suggest a safe course by taking into account weather and terrain information based on the user's geographical location information. In this way, the optimal training course can be provided to the user by evaluating safety based on the geographical location information.

[0094] The notification unit can refer to the user's past training data and adjust the notification content according to the user's training progress. For example, if the user is approaching a goal, the notification unit can notify the user with an encouraging message. Alternatively, if the user is moving away from the goal, the notification unit can notify the user of areas for improvement. Furthermore, the notification unit can provide advice according to the user's training progress based on the user's past training data. This allows the user's training to be more efficient by adjusting the notification content based on the user's past training data.

[0095] The analysis unit can evaluate the effectiveness of training by referring to the user's dietary data. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the effectiveness of training based on the calories and nutrients ingested by the user. The analysis unit can also provide advice to maximize the effectiveness of training based on the user's dietary data. Furthermore, the analysis unit can use the user's dietary data to predict the effectiveness of training and provide feedback to the user. This improves the effectiveness of training by evaluating the training effect based on the user's dietary data.

[0096] The input unit can analyze the user's social media activity and automatically input related training information. For example, the input unit can automatically generate a training plan based on training data shared by the user on social media. The input unit can also automatically set training goals based on the user's social media activity. Furthermore, the input unit can analyze the user's social media activity and automatically input related training information. This makes input work more efficient through automatic input based on social media activity.

[0097] The suggestion unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the level of detail of the suggestions based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the suggestion unit can provide concise suggestions. If the user is feeling relaxed, the suggestion unit can also provide detailed suggestions. Furthermore, if the user is in a hurry, the suggestion unit can prioritize displaying the most important suggestions. This makes the suggestions more effective by adjusting the level of detail of the suggestions according to the user's emotions.

[0098] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.

[0099] Step 1: In the input section, the runner inputs the type of training, target time, distance, and location. For example, the runner can select the type of training, such as jogging or interval training, and input the target time, running distance, and training location. Step 2: The suggestion unit uses AI to suggest the optimal course based on the information input by the input unit. For example, the suggestion unit may allocate a pace to match the target time or set a course according to the distance traveled. The suggestion unit can use an AI algorithm to analyze the runner's input information and suggest the optimal course. Step 3: The notification unit provides audio notifications during training based on the course proposed by the suggestion unit. For example, the notification unit measures the runner's running distance and pace in real time and provides audio notifications. For example, the notification unit provides audio notifications such as, "Your current running distance is 5 kilometers. Your pace is 5 minutes 30 seconds per kilometer." Step 4: The analysis unit analyzes the data and provides advice after the training based on the information notified by the notification unit. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the runner's running data and provides advice for the next training session. For example, the analysis unit provides specific advice such as, "Try to increase your pace a little next time."

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 one or more data formats of voice data, text data, image data, etc. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specification processing unit 290 performs the above-mentioned specification 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 may perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. The AI ​​may also be an AI agent. When the processing of each of the above-mentioned parts is performed by an AI, the processing may be performed in part or entirely by the AI, but is not limited to these examples. The processing performed by an AI including the generative AI may be replaced with rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced with processing performed by an AI including the generative AI.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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.

[0146] 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.

[0147] In the robot 414, the processor 46 performs the identification process. The storage 50 stores the identification program 60. The processor 46 reads the identification program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read identification program 60 on the RAM 48. The identification process is realized by the processor 46 operating as the control unit 46A in accordance with the identification program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The robot 414 also has a data generation model and an emotion identification model similar to the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59, and can perform the same process as the identification processing unit 290 using these models.

[0148] 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.

[0149] 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.

[0150] 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 including an instruction, as well as inference data such as audio data indicating speech, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image (e.g., still image data or video data). 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 one or more data formats, such as audio data, text data, and image 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 models 58 include AIs other than the generation AI. Examples of AIs other than the generation AI include, but are not limited to, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVMs), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), and naive Bayes. These AIs can perform various types of processing, but are not limited to these examples. The AI ​​may also be an AI agent. When the processing of each of the above-described parts is performed by an AI, the processing may be performed in part or entirely by the AI, but is not limited to these examples. Processing performed by an AI, including the generation AI, may be replaced with rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced with processing performed by an AI, including the generation AI.

[0151] 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.

[0152] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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).

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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."

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.

[0168] 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.

[0169] 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.
