The specific process is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 in accordance with the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0025] The storage 32 stores a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate a user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example 1) The learning support system according to an embodiment of the present invention uses a generation AI to generate questions from a wide range of subjects. This learning support system allows learners to select and answer questions tailored to their learning needs. Specifically, it consists of the following steps: First, the learner inputs the subject and level they wish to study. Next, the generation AI analyzes the input information and generates appropriate questions. The generated questions are provided to the learner, who answers them. Once the answer is complete, the generation AI analyzes the answers and provides feedback. Furthermore, the generation AI accumulates the learner's answer data and manages their learning progress. This allows learners to progress at their own pace and constantly challenge themselves with new questions. The system also takes learners' privacy into consideration. For example, when learners input the subject and level they wish to study, the system anonymizes their personal information to protect their privacy. Furthermore, the generation AI securely stores the learner's answer data and implements security measures to prevent it from being leaked to third parties. This allows learners to proceed with their studies with peace of mind. The learning support system allows learners to progress at their own pace and constantly challenge themselves with new questions.
[0029] A learning support system according to an embodiment includes a receiving unit, a generating unit, a providing unit, an analyzing unit, and a managing unit. The receiving unit receives input of a field or level that a learner wishes to study. Examples of the field or level that a learner wishes to study include, but are not limited to, mathematics, science, beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The receiving unit, for example, analyzes the information input by the learner and transmits it to the generating unit in an appropriate format. The generating unit generates questions based on the information received by the receiving unit using a generation AI. The generating unit, for example, automatically creates questions according to the learner's level and learning content. The generating unit can also adjust the difficulty and format of the questions using the generation AI. For example, if a learner is feeling stressed, the generating unit may prioritize generating easy questions. Alternatively, if a learner is relaxed, the generating unit may generate more difficult questions. The providing unit provides the questions generated by the generating unit to the learner. The providing unit can provide the questions through an online platform, for example. Alternatively, the providing unit can provide the questions through printed materials or an application. The providing unit can also select the optimal presentation format taking into account the learner's device information. For example, if the learner is using a smartphone, the providing unit selects a presentation format that matches the screen size. The analysis unit analyzes the learner's answers to the questions provided by the providing unit and provides feedback. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the learner's answers and determines whether they are correct or incorrect. The analysis unit can also provide explanations for the answers and additional learning materials. The management unit accumulates the answer data analyzed by the analysis unit and manages the learner's progress. For example, the management unit accumulates the learner's answer data and evaluates the learner's progress. If the learner's understanding in a particular area is lacking, the management unit can also focus on providing questions in that area. This allows the learning support system according to the embodiment to allow learners to progress through their studies at their own pace and constantly challenge themselves with new questions.
[0030] The generation unit can automatically create questions according to the learner's level or learning content. For example, the generation unit automatically creates questions according to the learner's level or learning content. For example, if a learner wants to learn beginner-level mathematics, the generation unit can generate basic calculation questions. If a learner wants to learn intermediate-level science, the generation unit can also generate questions about chemical reactions. Furthermore, if a learner wants to learn advanced-level history, the generation unit can generate questions about historical events. This allows the generation unit to provide optimal questions for the learner. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the generation unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, the generation unit inputs prompts for generating questions to the generation AI based on the learner's level or learning content, and the generation AI generates the questions. The generation AI can be, for example, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to these examples.
[0031] The providing unit can provide the generated questions to the learner. The providing unit can provide the questions through, for example, an online platform.

For example, the providing unit allows the learner to access the generated questions by receiving printed materials. The providing unit can also select the optimal presentation format taking into account the learner's device information. For example, if the learner is using a smartphone, the providing unit can select a presentation format that matches the screen size. Also, if the learner is using a tablet, the providing unit can select a presentation format optimized for a large screen. In this way, the providing unit allows the learner to access the generated questions. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the providing unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, the providing unit inputs prompts for providing the generated questions to the generation AI, and the generation AI selects the optimal presentation format.

For example, the management unit saves data on questions answered by the learner in a database. The management unit can also set criteria for evaluating the learner's progress. Furthermore, if the learner's understanding in a particular area is lacking, the management unit can focus on questions in that area. This allows the management unit to effectively manage the learner's learning progress. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the management unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, the management unit accumulates the learner's answer data and inputs prompts for progress management to the generation AI, which then accumulates the data and manages the progress. The generation AI can be, for example, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to these examples.
[0035] If a learner lacks understanding in a particular field, the management unit can prioritize questions in that field. For example, the management unit analyzes the learner's answer data, and if a learner lacks understanding in a particular field, the management unit prioritizes questions in that field. For example, if a learner lacks understanding in mathematics, the management unit can prioritize questions in mathematics. Furthermore, if a learner lacks understanding in science, the management unit can prioritize questions in science. Furthermore, if a learner lacks understanding in history, the management unit can prioritize questions in history. This allows the management unit to strengthen the learner's weak points. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the management unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, if a learner lacks understanding in a particular field, the management unit inputs prompts to the generation AI to prioritize questions in that field, and the generation AI generates the questions. The generation AI can be, for example, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to these examples.
[0036] The reception unit can analyze the learner's past learning history and suggest the optimal input method. The reception unit, for example, analyzes the learner's past learning history and suggests the optimal input method. For example, the reception unit automatically displays as candidates learning fields and levels that the learner has frequently selected in the past. The reception unit can also preferentially suggest input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the learner has used in the past. Furthermore, the reception unit can predict and suggest the learning field and level to be used in a specific time period based on the learner's past learning history. This allows the reception unit to provide the optimal input method based on the learner's past learning history. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the reception unit is performed using a generation AI. For example, the reception unit inputs a prompt to the generation AI to analyze the learner's past learning history, and the generation AI analyzes the history. The generation AI can be, for example, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to these examples.

[0038] The reception unit can prioritize input of highly relevant learning fields taking into account the learner's geographical location information. For example, the reception unit prioritizes input of highly relevant learning fields taking into account the learner's geographical location information. For example, if the learner is in a specific region, the reception unit can prioritize suggesting learning fields related to that region. The reception unit can also automatically display learning fields specific to the region based on the learner's geographical location information.

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.
[0168] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0169] 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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).
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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."
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] All publications, patent applications, and technical standards mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent application, or technical standard was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference.
