[0028] (Example of form 1) The auto arranger system according to an embodiment of the present invention allows users to arrange and generate sheet music without specialized knowledge, simply by uploading music data. This auto arranger system solves the problem of people wanting to perform music for club activities, circles, and events, but sheet music is not available commercially. Specifically, users upload music data, and a generation AI analyzes the uploaded music data and arranges the sheet music. The generation AI analyzes elements such as melody, harmony, and rhythm of the music and generates sheet music based on the user's specifications. For example, it can generate sheet music for various arrangements, such as piano scores and band scores. Furthermore, the system also provides permission requests for arrangements from copyright holders. When using sheet music generated by users, the system automatically processes the procedures to obtain permission from the copyright holder. This ensures that arrangement rights are not infringed. This system is in demand among a wide range of users, including music enthusiasts, students, and musical organizations. For example, it can be used when sheet music is needed for performances in school club activities or for club concerts. This allows the auto arranger system to arrange and generate sheet music without specialized knowledge, simply by uploading music data. It can also automatically request permission from the copyright holder for the arrangement, preventing infringement of arrangement rights.
[0029] The auto arranger system according to the embodiment includes a reception unit, an analysis unit, a generation unit, and an application unit. The reception unit allows a user to upload music data. For example, the reception unit provides an interface for users to drag and drop music data and a file selection dialog.

For example, the analysis unit uses acoustic analysis technology to extract the melody line of a song and analyze the chord structure. The analysis unit also analyzes rhythm patterns and determines the tempo and beat of the song. The generation unit generates sheet music based on the data analyzed by the analysis unit. The generation unit uses a generation AI to generate sheet music based on user specifications. For example, the generation unit generates sheet music for various arrangements, such as piano sheet music and band sheet music. The generation unit also adjusts the layout and format of the sheet music to provide an easy-to-read sheet music. The application unit is a component that applies for permission to the copyright holder based on the musical score generated by the generation unit. When a user uses the musical score generated by the generation unit, the application unit automatically performs the procedure for obtaining permission from the copyright holder. For example, the application unit inputs necessary information through an online application system and applies for permission. This allows the auto arranger system according to the embodiment to arrange and generate musical scores without specialized knowledge, simply by uploading music data. Furthermore, the system can automatically apply for permission to arrange music from the copyright holder, thereby preventing infringement of arrangement rights.
[0030] The analysis unit can analyze the melody, harmony, and rhythm elements of the music data.

The generation AI may be a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI, but is not limited to such examples. Some or all of the above-described processing in the generation unit may be performed using the generation AI, or may be performed without using the generation AI.

[0079] When generating musical scores, the generation unit can determine the priority of generation based on the time when the music was created. For example, the generation unit prioritizes generating musical scores for the latest music. For example, the generation unit prioritizes generating musical scores for the latest hit music or newly released music. The generation unit can also postpone generating musical scores for older music. For example, the generation unit postpones generating musical scores for past hit music or classical music. The generation unit can also generate musical scores for music created during a specific period, taking into account trends of that period. For example, the generation unit generates musical scores for music related to a specific decade or season, taking into account trends of that period. This allows the generation unit to determine the priority of generation based on the time when the music was created. Some or all of the above-described processing in the generation unit may be performed using, for example, a generation AI, or may be performed without using a generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input data on the time when the music was created into the generation AI, and the generation AI can determine the priority of generation.

The analysis unit can also perform a simplified analysis on music with low commercial value and generate a score quickly. Furthermore, the analysis unit can perform a balanced analysis on music with medium commercial value and generate a score with moderate accuracy. This allows the analysis unit to adjust the level of detail of the analysis based on the commercial value of the music. Some or all of the above-mentioned processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, or without, a generation AI. For example, the analysis unit can input the commercial value data of the music into the generation AI, which can adjust the level of detail of the analysis.
[0098] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0099] Step 1: The reception unit is a component through which users upload music data. The reception unit provides, for example, an interface that allows users to drag and drop music data, or a file selection dialog. The reception unit also checks the format of the uploaded music data and verifies that it is a supported format. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the uploaded music data. Using the generation AI, the analysis unit analyzes elements of the music data, such as melody, harmony, and rhythm. For example, the analysis unit uses acoustic analysis technology to extract the melody line of the music and analyze the chord structure. The analysis unit also analyzes the rhythm pattern and identifies the tempo and beat of the music. Step 3: The generation unit generates the score based on the data analyzed by the analysis unit. The generation unit uses a generation AI to generate the score based on the user's specifications. For example, the generation unit generates scores for various arrangements, such as scores for piano or band. The generation unit also adjusts the layout and format of the score to provide an easy-to-read score. Step 4: The application unit is a part that applies for permission to the author based on the musical score generated by the generation unit.

[0148] Note that a device other than the data processing device 12 may have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 communicates with the server device having the data generation model 58 to obtain a processing result (such as a prediction result) using the data generation model 58. Furthermore, the data processing device 12 may be a server device, or may be a terminal device (for example, a mobile phone, a robot, a home appliance, etc.) owned by a user.
[0149] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing.

The 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).

[0151] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but may also be executed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. Furthermore, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information required for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, etc., and the robot 414 acquires or collects information required for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device, etc.
[0152] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0153] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.
[0154] FIG. 9 illustrates an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and behaviors arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion encompasses both emotions and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.
[0155] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction on emotion map 400, and typically fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.
[0156] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on in the mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further you go outside emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).
[0157] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. Emotions can also be created for robots, cars, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is expressed, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is expressed. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on speech emotion recognition and brain physiological signal analysis systems for emotions, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "reaction," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the area called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.
[0158] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is a negative emotion on the situation side, around the middle of "repentance" or "reflection." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is a positive emotion on the response side, around "desire." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0159] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple pieces of training data that are combinations of user input and emotion values indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relieved," "calm," and "reassuring," have similar emotion values.
[0160] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by one computer 22, but the technology disclosed herein is not limited to this, and distributed processing of the specific process may be performed by multiple computers including computer 22.
[0161] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32 has been described, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-transitory storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-transitory storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes the specific processing in accordance with the specific processing program 56.
[0162] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.
[0163] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.
[0164] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following types of processors: A processor, for example, is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. A processor also includes a dedicated electrical circuit, such as an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), a PLD (Programmable Logic Device), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which is a processor with a circuit configuration designed specifically for executing a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.
[0165] The hardware resource that executes the specific process may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific process may be a single processor.
[0166] As an example of a system configured with a single processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process. Second, there is a system that uses a processor that realizes the functions of an entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.
[0167] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[0168] In the above example, the first to fourth embodiments have been described separately, but some or all of these embodiments may be combined. The smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are merely examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. In the above example, the first and second embodiments have been described separately, but they may be combined.
[0169] The above-described description and illustrations are a detailed explanation of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure and are merely an example of the technology of the present disclosure. For example, the above description of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects is an explanation of an example of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replacements may be made to the above-described description and illustrations within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the above-described description and illustrations omit explanations of common technical knowledge that do not require particular explanation to enable the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
