[0103] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the above-described example, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.
[0104] The analysis unit can also estimate the user's emotions and adjust the analysis algorithm based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, a detailed analysis can be performed to provide highly accurate results. Alternatively, if the user is stressed, a simplified analysis can be performed to provide quick results. Furthermore, if the user is excited, analysis results that are easy to understand visually can be provided. In this way, by adjusting the analysis algorithm based on the user's emotions, more appropriate analysis results can be provided.
[0105] The collection unit can also add a function to collect the user's family history and genetic information. For example, it can provide an interface that allows the user to easily input their family history. It can also provide a kit for analyzing genetic information and collect data. It can also provide advice on hair care based on the user's family history and genetic information. In this way, by collecting the user's family history and genetic information, it is possible to provide a more personalized hair care program.
[0106] The providing unit can also add a function for sharing the generated program with other users and forming a community. For example, it can provide a platform for users to share programs they have generated with other users. It can also provide a function for users to receive feedback from other users on programs they have generated. It can also provide a function for users to form a community based on programs they have generated and exchange information. This allows users to share programs and form communities, thereby promoting information exchange between users.
[0107] The collection unit can also estimate the user's emotions and set categories of information to be collected based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, hair care information with a relaxation effect can be collected. If the user is excited, information on the latest hair growth techniques can be collected. Furthermore, if the user is tired, easy-to-follow hair care methods can be collected. In this way, by adjusting the categories of information based on the user's emotions, more appropriate information can be collected.
[0108] The generation unit can also add a function to generate not only a hair generation program but also skin care and whole body health management programs. For example, a skin care program can be provided in addition to hair care. Also, a whole body health management program can be provided in addition to hair care. Furthermore, a stress management program can be provided in addition to hair care. This allows comprehensive health management by providing skin care and whole body health management programs.
[0109] The providing unit can also estimate the user's emotions and set the display method of the program to be provided based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, a detailed program can be displayed. Alternatively, if the user is feeling stressed, a simplified program can be displayed. Furthermore, if the user is excited, a program that is visually easy to understand can be displayed. In this way, by adjusting the program display method based on the user's emotions, more appropriate information can be provided.
[0110] The collection unit can also add a function to evaluate the reliability of the information to be collected and select only highly reliable information. For example, an algorithm can be introduced to evaluate the reliability of information sources, and only highly reliable information can be collected. Highly reliable information can also be selected based on user ratings and reviews. Furthermore, highly reliable information can be selected with reference to expert opinions. This allows only highly reliable information to be collected, improving the quality of the information provided.
[0111] The analysis unit can also add a function to visualize the analysis results and present them to users in an easy-to-understand manner. For example, analysis results can be displayed in graphs or charts to make them easy to understand. Analysis results can also be provided as infographics to make them easier to understand visually. Furthermore, analysis results can be displayed as animations to make it easier for users to understand. In this way, by visualizing the analysis results, information can be provided to users in an easy-to-understand manner.
[0112] The generation unit can also estimate the user's emotions and set the content of the program to be generated based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, a detailed hair generation program can be provided. If the user is stressed, a simplified hair generation program can be provided. Furthermore, if the user is excited, a visually easy-to-understand hair generation program can be provided. In this way, a more appropriate program can be provided by adjusting the content of the program based on the user's emotions.
[0113] The provider can also add a function to monitor the execution status of the provided program and collect feedback. For example, the provider can monitor the progress when the user executes the program and collect feedback. It can also collect feedback after the user executes the program. It can also collect problems that the user encounters when executing the program and improve them. This makes it possible to improve the program by monitoring the execution status of the program and collecting feedback.
[0114] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0115] Step 1: The collection unit collects general-purpose information about hair from the web. For example, it has the function of automatically collecting general knowledge about hair growth, information about hair care, the latest research papers, and patent information. The collection unit also collects personal information from daily life, such as photos posted to social media, health checkup results, and smartphone sensors. This information includes the user's diet, exercise habits, and stress level. Furthermore, the collection unit can also have the function of inferring the user's emotions and prioritizing the information to be collected based on the inferred emotions. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the collected information. For example, it uses data mining technology and statistical analysis methods to analyze correlations in the collected information and generate a more accurate hair generation program. Step 3: The generation unit generates a hair growth program based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the generation unit generates a program that recommends a diet rich in specific nutrients or a program that recommends specific exercise. Furthermore, the generation unit may have a function to estimate the user's emotions and adjust the content of the program to be generated based on the estimated emotions. Step 4: The providing unit provides the program generated by the generating unit to the user. For example, the providing unit provides the program through an application or by email. Furthermore, the providing unit may have a function of monitoring the execution status of the provided program and collecting feedback.

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.
[0165] 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.
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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.
[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.
