Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) The original tour proposal system according to an embodiment of the present invention proposes an original tour based on the content of a dialogue with the user, even if the specific time and destination are undecided. In this original tour proposal system, the user interactively inputs their travel preferences and interests. The AI analyzes the dialogue, generates an optimal tour plan, and proposes it to the user. The user can then review and modify the proposed tour plan. For example, if the user inputs preferences such as "I love nature," "I want to visit historical sites," or "I want a relaxing place," this information is input to the AI. The AI then understands the user's preferences and interests and generates an optimal tour plan based on them. For example, if the user selects "I love nature," the AI generates a tour plan that includes tourist spots rich in nature. The generated tour plan is then proposed to the user, who can review and modify it as needed. For example, the user can select the tourist spots they want to visit from the proposed tourist spots and exclude the ones they do not want to visit. This system allows users to easily create an original tour that is optimal for them, even if the specific time and destination are undecided. The AI then proposes an optimal tour plan based on the user's preferences and interests, simply by interactively inputting their preferences and interests. This facilitates smooth travel planning. Furthermore, the generated tour plan is based on the user's wishes, resulting in a highly satisfying trip. For example, if a user inputs "I like nature" and "I want to go to historical places," the generation AI will generate a tour plan that combines natural and historical tourist spots. The user can then review the plan, select the places they want to go to, and exclude the places they don't want to go to, to create an original tour that is best suited to them. This allows the original tour suggestion system to propose the optimal tour plan based on the user's wishes and interests, which the user can then review and modify.

[0054] The processing flow of the first embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0055] Step 1: The reception unit interactively inputs the user's travel wishes and interests. The user's travel wishes and interests include, for example, the destination, budget, and purpose of the trip. The reception unit can input the user's wishes and interests using text chat or voice dialogue. Step 2: The generation unit uses the generation AI to analyze the dialogue content input by the reception unit and generate an optimal tour plan. The generation AI uses natural language processing technology and machine learning algorithms to analyze the user's wishes and interests and generate a tour plan based on them. The generation unit generates a tour plan including itinerary, accommodations, tourist spots, etc. based on the user's wishes and interests. Step 3: The confirmation unit proposes the tour plan generated by the generation unit to the user, who then confirms and modifies it. The confirmation unit proposes the tour plan through a user interface, and the user can confirm the tour plan using a preview screen or a confirmation checklist. The user can confirm the proposed tour plan and modify it as necessary. For example, the user can select the places they want to go to and exclude the places they do not want to go to.
[0056] (Example 2) The original tour proposal system according to an embodiment of the present invention proposes an original tour based on the content of a dialogue with the user, even if the specific time and destination are undecided. In this original tour proposal system, the user interactively inputs their travel preferences and interests. The AI analyzes the dialogue, generates an optimal tour plan, and proposes it to the user. The user can then review and modify the proposed tour plan. For example, if the user inputs preferences such as "I love nature," "I want to visit historical sites," or "I want a relaxing place," this information is input to the AI. The AI then understands the user's preferences and interests and generates an optimal tour plan based on them. For example, if the user selects "I love nature," the AI generates a tour plan that includes tourist spots rich in nature. The generated tour plan is then proposed to the user, who can review and modify it as needed. For example, the user can select the tourist spots they want to visit from the proposed tourist spots and exclude the ones they do not want to visit. This system allows users to easily create an original tour that is optimal for them, even if the specific time and destination are undecided. The AI then proposes an optimal tour plan based on the user's preferences and interests, simply by interactively inputting their preferences and interests. This facilitates smooth travel planning. Furthermore, the generated tour plan is based on the user's wishes, resulting in a highly satisfying trip. For example, if a user inputs "I like nature" and "I want to go to historical places," the generation AI will generate a tour plan that combines natural and historical tourist spots. The user can then review the plan, select the places they want to go to, and exclude the places they don't want to go to, to create an original tour that is best suited to them. This allows the original tour suggestion system to propose the optimal tour plan based on the user's wishes and interests, which the user can then review and modify.

[0142] 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.
[0143] 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.

[0145] 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.
[0146] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0147] 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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] 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.
[0150] 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).
[0151] 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.
[0152] 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."
[0153] 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.
[0154] 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.
[0155] 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.
[0156] 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.
[0157] 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.
[0158] 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.
[0159] 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.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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.
