Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0028] (Example 1) A restored video generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention uses a generation AI to generate restored videos using past photographs and historical data. In this restored video generation system, a user inputs past photographs and historical data (such as locations, eras, and historical background), and the generation AI analyzes the data to generate videos that recreate events from that time. These videos realistically recreate past events and scenery, allowing the user to reminisce. For example, a user inputs family photos, memorable photos of friends, newspaper articles from that time, and data on historical events. This information is input into the generation AI, which then analyzes the input data. The generation AI then extracts information to recreate the scenery and events from that time based on the photographs and historical data. For example, the generation AI analyzes the locations, people, and events from that time, and generates a video based on that information. The generated videos realistically recreate past events and scenery, allowing the user to reminisce. For example, a video recreating scenes from family life from that time based on family photographs, or a video recreating the location and circumstances of a historical event based on a historical event, can be generated. This system allows users to enjoy videos that realistically recreate their past memories. For example, to reminisce about memories with family and friends, you can generate videos based on past photos and historical data and enjoy them together. You can also generate videos based on data from that time to learn about historical events and use them as part of an educational program. This allows the restored video generation system to use generative AI to generate and provide restored videos based on past photos and historical data.

[0084] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0085] The reception unit can evaluate the reliability of data entered by the user and transmit highly reliable data to the analysis unit with priority. For example, the reception unit can evaluate the reliability of the data source or provider and filter out unreliable data. The reception unit can also check the consistency and integrity of the data and exclude data with inconsistencies. Furthermore, the reception unit can evaluate the freshness and recency of the data and process older data with lower priority. This allows the reception unit to transmit highly reliable data with priority to the analysis unit.

[0086] The analysis unit can learn the user's past input data and automatically identify and analyze similar data. For example, the analysis unit can learn the characteristics of previously input photos and determine whether a newly input photo is similar to the past data. The analysis unit can also learn patterns of past text data and analyze whether newly input text is related to the past data. Furthermore, the analysis unit can learn the characteristics of past voice data and determine whether newly input voice matches the past data. This allows the analysis unit to efficiently perform analysis by utilizing the user's past input data.

[0087] The generation unit can add interactive elements to the video to be generated, allowing the user to make selections and operations within the video. For example, the generation unit can display options within the video, allowing the user to make a selection and change the development of the story. The generation unit can also place interactive objects within the video, allowing the user to operate them and display additional information. Furthermore, the generation unit can incorporate quizzes and surveys into the video, allowing the content of the video to change as the user answers.

Furthermore, the providing unit can analyze the user's feedback and reflect it in the next video generation, thereby providing a video that better meets the user's needs. In this way, the providing unit can utilize the user's feedback to continuously improve the quality of the video.

[0089] The reception unit can anonymize or encrypt data to protect the privacy of data entered by the user. For example, the reception unit anonymizes data including the user's personal information so that a specific individual cannot be identified. The reception unit can also encrypt data when transmitting it to prevent unauthorized access by third parties. Furthermore, the reception unit can also encrypt data when saving it to ensure data security. This allows the reception unit to handle data safely while protecting the user's privacy.

[0090] The reception unit can estimate the user's emotions and customize the method of receiving input data based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is feeling nostalgic, the reception unit can preferentially receive data of old photos and memories. If the user is feeling sad, the reception unit can also suggest a data reception method that will soothe the user's emotions. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the reception unit can also provide a data reception method that will enhance the user's emotions. In this way, the reception unit can provide the optimal data reception method according to the user's emotions.

[0091] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the presentation method of the analysis results based on the estimated user's emotions.

Also, if the user is feeling sad, the analysis unit can present the analysis results in an expression method that soothes the emotion. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the analysis unit can present the analysis results in an expression method that enhances the emotion. In this way, the analysis unit can adjust the presentation method of the analysis results based on the user's emotions.

[0092] The generation unit can estimate the user's emotion and adjust the music and sound effects of the video to be generated based on the estimated user's emotion. For example, if the user is feeling nostalgic, the generation unit can use nostalgic music that elicits the emotion. If the user is feeling sad, the generation unit can use calm music that soothes the emotion. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the generation unit can use energetic music that enhances the emotion. In this way, the generation unit can adjust the music and sound effects of the video based on the user's emotion.

[0093] The providing unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the viewing environment of the video to be provided based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user feels nostalgic, the providing unit can provide a viewing environment that elicits the emotion. Also, if the user feels sad, the providing unit can provide a viewing environment that soothes the emotion. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the providing unit can provide a viewing environment that enhances the emotion. In this way, the providing unit can provide an optimal viewing environment based on the user's emotions.

[0094] The providing unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the subtitles and narration of the video to be provided based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user feels nostalgic, the providing unit can add narration that elicits the emotion. Also, if the user feels sad, the providing unit can provide subtitles and narration that soothe the emotion. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the providing unit can provide subtitles and narration that enhance the emotion. In this way, the providing unit can provide optimal subtitles and narration based on the user's emotions.

[0095] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.

[0096] Step 1: The reception unit allows the user to input past photos and historical data. The data input by the user can include, for example, family photos, memorable photos with friends, newspaper articles from that time, and data on historical events. The reception unit can accept digital photo data and scanned newspaper articles, and can also convert the data input by the user into a format suitable for the generative AI. Step 2: The analysis unit uses the generation AI to analyze the data received by the reception unit. The analysis unit analyzes the locations, people, and events that appear in the photos, and extracts information to generate a video based on this. The generation AI uses technologies such as deep learning and GAN (generative artificial network) to analyze the input data. Step 3: The generator uses a generation AI to generate a video based on the information extracted by the analysis unit. The generator generates a video that realistically recreates past events and scenery. The generator AI uses technologies such as deep learning and GAN to generate realistic videos. Step 4: The providing unit provides the video generated by the generating unit to the user. The providing unit can provide the generated video in a streaming or download format. The providing unit can also provide a user interface for the user to view the generated video.

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.

The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN and / or a LAN.

[0136] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication I / F 44, and a control target 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, a RAM 48, and a storage 50. The processor 46, the RAM 48, and the storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, the speaker 240, the camera 42, and the control target 443 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0137] 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.

[0138] 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 image sensor or a CCD 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).

[0139] 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.

[0140] The control object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the emotions of the robot 414 can be expressed by controlling these motors. 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.

[0141] 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.

[0142] 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.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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.

[0146] 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.

[0147] 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.

[0148] 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.

[0149] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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).

[0154] 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. 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 indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. 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.

[0155] 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."

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.
