[0028] (Example 1) A troubleshooting system according to an embodiment of the present invention uses a generation AI to understand complex error codes and quickly resolve computer problems. In this troubleshooting system, a user inputs an error code encountered by the user into the generation AI, which then analyzes the error code and identifies the cause of the problem. The generation AI then provides easy-to-understand guidance and solutions to help the user resolve the problem themselves. Furthermore, the generation AI utilizes user feedback to learn and improves its ability to provide accurate solutions. This allows users to resolve problems without stress and improves the efficiency of computer troubleshooting. For example, even when a system administrator deals with a large number of error codes, the generation AI can quickly identify the cause and provide appropriate solutions, improving work efficiency. First, a user inputs the error code encountered by the user into the generation AI. Next, the generation AI analyzes the error code and identifies the cause of the problem.

Furthermore, the generation AI provides easy-to-understand guidance and solutions to help the user resolve the problem themselves. For example, the generation AI identifies the cause of the error code "Access Denied" and suggests appropriate solutions. Furthermore, the generative AI uses user feedback to learn and improve its ability to provide accurate solutions. For example, when a user provides feedback such as "This solution solved the problem," the generative AI learns from that information and becomes able to provide faster and more accurate solutions when the same error code occurs in the future. This mechanism allows users to solve problems without stress and makes computer troubleshooting more efficient. For example, when a system administrator deals with a large number of error codes, the generative AI can quickly identify the cause and provide appropriate solutions, improving work efficiency.

[0105] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0106] When analyzing error codes, the analysis unit can take the user's operating environment into consideration. For example, the analysis unit can select the optimal analysis method by referring to the type of device and network environment used by the user. For example, when using a mobile device, the analysis unit can use a lightweight analysis algorithm to provide results quickly. In addition, when the network environment is unstable, the analysis unit can perform offline analysis and synchronize the results later. This allows for flexible analysis that suits the user's operating environment.
[0107] Based on the analysis results of the error code, the cause identification unit can refer to the user's past operation history and identify the most relevant cause. For example, the cause identification unit can analyze the operation sequence performed by the user in the past and identify the cause when a similar error occurs. The cause identification unit can also extract specific patterns from the user's operation history and identify the root cause of the error. Furthermore, the cause identification unit can analyze the frequency of error occurrence based on the user's operation history and identify the most likely cause. This makes it possible to identify the cause with greater accuracy by utilizing the user's operation history.
[0108] The guide providing unit can customize the content of the guide according to the user's skill level. For example, it can provide a guide including basic procedures for beginner users and detailed procedures and additional information for intermediate users. It can also provide a guide including specialized information for advanced users. Furthermore, the guide providing unit can automatically estimate the user's skill level and provide the most appropriate guide. This provides an appropriate guide according to the user's skill level, deepening the user's understanding.
[0109] The solution provider can prioritize solutions according to the severity of the error. For example, solutions are provided with the highest priority for serious errors that affect the entire system, allowing for rapid resolution. Solutions can also be provided at an appropriate time for errors that are important to the user. Furthermore, solutions can be provided for minor errors after solutions for other errors have been provided. This allows for the provision of appropriate solutions according to the severity of the error, improving the stability of the system.
[0110] The feedback collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the feedback collection method based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the feedback collection unit can provide a brief feedback form to reduce the user's burden. Alternatively, if the user is relaxed, the feedback collection unit can provide a form requesting detailed feedback. Furthermore, the feedback collection unit can adjust the timing of feedback collection according to the user's emotions. This enables optimal feedback collection according to the user's emotions, improving collection accuracy.
[0111] When performing learning based on collected feedback, the learning unit can weight the learning data based on the time of submission of the feedback. For example, the weight of learning data can be set high based on recently submitted feedback, and the weight of learning data can be set low based on older feedback. The weight of learning data can also be appropriately adjusted based on the frequency of feedback submission. This allows learning to emphasize the most recent information, improving the accuracy of the system.
[0112] When analyzing error codes, the analysis unit can perform analysis based on the system's operating status and load status. For example, it checks the current system load status and distributes the analysis if the load is high. It can also refer to the system's operating status and perform analysis without affecting running processes. It can also select the optimal timing for analysis based on the system's past operating data. This enables efficient analysis that takes into account the system's operating status and load status.
[0113] The cause identification unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the cause identification method based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the cause identification unit can quickly identify the cause and provide a concise explanation. On the other hand, if the user is relaxed, the cause identification unit can provide an explanation using a detailed cause identification method. This enables optimal cause identification according to the user's emotions, deepening the user's understanding.
[0114] The guidance providing unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the way the guidance is presented based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the guidance providing unit can provide a simple and easy-to-understand guide. On the other hand, if the user is relaxed, the guidance providing unit can provide a guide that includes detailed explanations. This provides the optimal guide according to the user's emotions, deepening the user's understanding.
[0115] The solution providing unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the way in which the solution is expressed based on the estimated user's emotions. For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the solution providing unit can provide a simple and easy-to-understand solution. On the other hand, if the user is relaxed, the solution providing unit can provide a solution that includes detailed explanations. This provides the optimal solution according to the user's emotions, deepening the user's understanding.
[0116] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0117] Step 1: The analysis unit analyzes the error code. The analysis unit performs syntactic and semantic analysis of the error code to identify the type and cause of the error. Step 2: The cause identification unit identifies the cause of the problem based on the error code analyzed by the analysis unit. The cause identification unit identifies the cause using root cause analysis and pattern matching, and identifies the root cause by referring to a database of past similar errors. Step 3: The guide provider provides an easy-to-understand guide based on the cause identified by the cause identifyr. The guide provider provides step-by-step instructions and visual guides to show the user specific steps to resolve the error. Step 4: The solution providing unit provides specific solutions based on the guide provided by the guide providing unit. The solution providing unit provides specific solutions such as reinstalling software or changing settings, and can also provide a patch to fix the cause of the error. Step 5: The feedback collection unit collects feedback from users. The feedback collection unit collects user surveys and log data, and gathers feedback on the occurrence of errors and the effectiveness of countermeasures. Step 6: The learning unit performs learning based on the feedback collected by the feedback collection unit. Using machine learning algorithms and data mining techniques, the learning unit learns the causes of errors and the effectiveness of countermeasures, thereby improving the accuracy of the system.

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.

[0159] 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).
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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.
[0164] 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.
[0165] 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.
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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.
[0168] 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.
[0169] 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.
[0170] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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).
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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."
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
