For example, the collection unit may use AI to analyze the user's social media activity in real time and collect related data.

[0039] The analysis unit can adjust the accuracy of the analysis based on the purpose of the user's presentation during analysis. For example, if the user is giving a business presentation, the analysis unit performs a detailed analysis. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the purpose of the user's presentation is business, the analysis unit performs a detailed analysis to evaluate the content and structure of the presentation. The analysis unit can also perform a specialized analysis if the user is giving an academic presentation. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the purpose of the user's presentation is academic, the analysis unit performs a specialized analysis to evaluate the logic of the presentation and the accuracy of the data. The analysis unit can also perform a simplified analysis if the user is giving a casual presentation. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the purpose of the user's presentation is casual, the analysis unit performs a simplified analysis to evaluate the flow and atmosphere of the presentation. This allows for more appropriate analysis by adjusting the level of detail of the analysis depending on the purpose of the presentation. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the purpose of the user's presentation in real time and use AI to optimize the level of detail of the analysis.

[0040] During analysis, the analysis unit can apply an appropriate analysis algorithm depending on the category of the user's presentation.

For example, if the analysis unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is business, it applies a business analysis algorithm to evaluate the content and structure of the presentation. Furthermore, in the case of an academic presentation, the analysis unit can also apply an academic analysis algorithm. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is academic, it applies an academic analysis algorithm to evaluate the logic of the presentation and the accuracy of the data. Furthermore, in the case of a casual presentation, the analysis unit can also apply a casual analysis algorithm. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is casual, it applies a casual analysis algorithm to evaluate the flow and atmosphere of the presentation. This enables more appropriate analysis by applying an analysis algorithm depending on the category of the presentation. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit may use AI to analyze the category of the user's presentation in real time and apply an appropriate analysis algorithm.

[0041] During analysis, the analysis unit can determine the analysis priority based on the submission time of the user's presentation. For example, the analysis unit prioritizes analysis of the presentation that the user will submit most recently. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the submission deadline of the user's presentation and prioritizes analysis of the presentation that will be submitted most recently. The analysis unit can also prioritize analysis of presentations that the user has been preparing for a long time. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the submission deadline of the user's presentation and prioritizes analysis of the presentation that has been prepared for a long time. The analysis unit can also prioritize analysis of presentations that the user is urgently preparing. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the submission deadline of the user's presentation and prioritizes analysis of the presentation that is urgently prepared. This enables more effective analysis by determining the analysis priority based on the submission time. Some or all of the above-described processing by the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the submission time of the user's presentation in real time and use AI to optimize the analysis priority.

[0042] During analysis, the analysis unit can determine the order of analysis based on the relevance of the user's presentation. For example, the analysis unit prioritizes analysis of presentations that are highly relevant to the user. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the relevance of the topics and audiences of the user's presentation and prioritizes analysis of the highly relevant presentations. The analysis unit can also postpone presentations that are less relevant to the user. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the relevance of the topics and audiences of the user's presentation and postpones the less relevant presentations. Furthermore, if the user is preparing multiple presentations, the analysis unit can analyze them in order of relevance. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the relevance of the topics and audiences of the user's presentation and analyzes them in order of relevance. This enables more effective analysis by adjusting the order of analysis based on relevance. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the relevance of the user's presentation in real time and use AI to optimize the order of analysis.

[0043] When providing advice, the advice unit can adjust the accuracy of the advice based on the importance of the user's presentation. For example, if the user is giving an important presentation, the advice unit provides detailed advice. For example, the advice unit analyzes the importance of the user's presentation and provides detailed advice if it is determined to be an important presentation. The advice unit can also provide simple advice if the user is giving a casual presentation. For example, the advice unit analyzes the importance of the user's presentation and provides simple advice if it is determined to be a casual presentation. The advice unit can also provide quick advice if the user is giving an urgent presentation. For example, the advice unit analyzes the importance of the user's presentation and provides quick advice if it is determined to be an urgent presentation. This allows for more appropriate advice to be provided by adjusting the level of detail of the advice depending on the importance of the presentation. Some or all of the above-described processing in the advice unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the advice unit may analyze the importance of the user's presentation in real time and use AI to optimize the level of detail of the advice.

[0044] When providing advice, the advice unit can apply an appropriate advice algorithm depending on the category of the user's presentation. For example, in the case of a business presentation, the advice unit applies a business advice algorithm. For example, if the advice unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is business, it applies a business advice algorithm to evaluate the content and structure of the presentation. Furthermore, in the case of an academic presentation, the advice unit can also apply an academic advice algorithm. For example, if the advice unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is academic, it applies an academic advice algorithm to evaluate the logic of the presentation and the accuracy of the data. Furthermore, in the case of a casual presentation, the advice unit can also apply a casual advice algorithm. For example, if the advice unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is casual, it applies a casual advice algorithm to evaluate the flow and atmosphere of the presentation. This enables more appropriate advice to be provided by applying an advice algorithm depending on the category of the presentation. Some or all of the above-described processing in the advice unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the advice unit may use AI to analyze the category of the user's presentation in real time and apply an appropriate advice algorithm.

Some or all of the above-described processing in the advice unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the advice unit can automatically generate optimal advice using AI based on data on the user's voice characteristics and speaking style.

[0066] The collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the timing of collecting audio data or video data based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is nervous, the collection unit waits until the user relaxes before collecting audio data or video data. For example, the collection unit analyzes the user's facial expressions and tone of voice and pauses collection if it determines that the user is nervous. Furthermore, if the user is relaxed, the collection unit can collect data for a short period of time to maintain that state. For example, the collection unit monitors the user's heart rate and breathing rhythm and quickly collects data if it determines that the user is relaxed. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the collection unit can wait until the user's emotions subside before collecting data. For example, the collection unit analyzes the volume of the user's voice and speaking rate and pauses collection if it determines that the user is excited. This allows for more natural data to be collected by adjusting the collection timing according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, such as an emotion engine or a generative AI. The generative AI can be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI.

Furthermore, if the user is relaxed, the analysis unit can select an analysis method to maintain that state. For example, the analysis unit monitors the user's heart rate and breathing rhythm and, if it determines that the user is relaxed, selects an analysis method to maintain that state. Furthermore, if the user is excited, the analysis unit can select an analysis method to suppress the user's emotions. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the volume of the user's voice and speaking rate and, if it determines that the user is excited, selects an analysis method to suppress the user's emotions. This allows for more appropriate analysis by adjusting the analysis method according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, for example, an emotion engine or generative AI. The generation AI may be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the analysis unit may use AI to analyze user emotion data in real time and optimize the analysis method.

[0073] The analysis unit can adjust the accuracy of the analysis based on the purpose of the user's presentation during analysis. For example, if the user is giving a business presentation, the analysis unit performs a detailed analysis. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the purpose of the user's presentation is business, the analysis unit performs a detailed analysis to evaluate the content and structure of the presentation. The analysis unit can also perform a specialized analysis if the user is giving an academic presentation. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the purpose of the user's presentation is academic, the analysis unit performs a specialized analysis to evaluate the logic of the presentation and the accuracy of the data. The analysis unit can also perform a simplified analysis if the user is giving a casual presentation. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the purpose of the user's presentation is casual, the analysis unit performs a simplified analysis to evaluate the flow and atmosphere of the presentation. This allows for more appropriate analysis by adjusting the level of detail of the analysis depending on the purpose of the presentation. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the purpose of the user's presentation in real time and use AI to optimize the level of detail of the analysis.

[0074] During analysis, the analysis unit can apply an appropriate analysis algorithm depending on the category of the user's presentation. For example, in the case of a business presentation, the analysis unit applies a business analysis algorithm. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is business, it applies a business analysis algorithm to evaluate the content and structure of the presentation. Furthermore, in the case of an academic presentation, the analysis unit can also apply an academic analysis algorithm. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is academic, it applies an academic analysis algorithm to evaluate the logic of the presentation and the accuracy of the data. Furthermore, in the case of a casual presentation, the analysis unit can also apply a casual analysis algorithm. For example, if the analysis unit determines that the category of the user's presentation is casual, it applies a casual analysis algorithm to evaluate the flow and atmosphere of the presentation. This enables more appropriate analysis by applying an analysis algorithm depending on the category of the presentation. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit may use AI to analyze the category of the user's presentation in real time and apply an appropriate analysis algorithm.

[0075] The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the display method of the analysis results based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is nervous, the analysis unit provides a simple, highly visible display method. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the user's facial expressions and tone of voice and selects a simple, highly visible display method if it determines that the user is nervous. The analysis unit can also provide a display method that includes detailed information if the user is relaxed. For example, the analysis unit monitors the user's heart rate and breathing rhythm and selects a display method that includes detailed information if it determines that the user is relaxed. Furthermore, the analysis unit can provide a display method that focuses on the main points if the user is in a hurry. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the volume of the user's voice and speaking speed and selects a display method that focuses on the main points if it determines that the user is in a hurry. This allows for a more visible display by adjusting the display method according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, for example, using an emotion engine or a generation AI. The generation AI can be, but is not limited to, a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) or a multimodal generation AI. Some or all of the above-described processing in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or may be performed without using AI. For example, the analysis unit may use AI to analyze user emotion data in real time and optimize the display method of the analysis results.

[0076] During analysis, the analysis unit can determine the analysis priority based on the submission time of the user's presentation. For example, the analysis unit prioritizes analysis of the presentation that the user will submit most recently. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the submission deadline of the user's presentation and prioritizes analysis of the presentation that will be submitted most recently. The analysis unit can also prioritize analysis of presentations that the user has been preparing for a long time.

Furthermore, the collection unit can also perform filtering to reduce background noise when the user gives a presentation in a noisy environment. In this way, by monitoring environmental sounds in real time and performing noise cancellation, clearer audio data can be collected.

[0101] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.

[0102] Step 1: The collection unit collects audio or video data. For example, it collects audio of a user speaking or video of a presentation. The collection unit can use a microphone to record audio and a camera to record video. It can also import existing audio or video files. For example, it can import audio files in MP3 or WAV format, or video files in MP4 or AVI format. Step 2: The analyzer analyzes the audio and video data collected by the collector to identify the user's individual character, voice quality, and volume. For example, the analyzer analyzes the frequency components of the audio data to measure the voice pitch in hertz (Hz), and analyzes the audio data amplitude to measure the voice volume in decibels (dB). It can also analyze frames of video data to identify speaking speed, intonation, rhythm, etc. Step 3: The advice unit provides advice based on the analysis results obtained by the analysis unit. For example, it provides advice on presentation methods, voice usage, pauses, and the order in which materials should be presented that suit the user's personality. It can provide advice on how to speak loudly in a low voice, how to take appropriate pauses, and the order in which materials should be presented based on logical order and importance. Step 4: The practice unit provides tools for the user to practice based on the advice provided by the advice unit. For example, the practice unit provides a tool that allows the user to record their own presentation and then the AI ​​analyzes the recording and provides feedback. The AI ​​analyzes the recorded video, evaluates the pitch and volume of the user's voice, characteristics of their speaking style, etc., and provides feedback on areas for improvement.

[0103] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0104] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (registered trademark) (Internet search engine).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> Examples of the generative AI include a neural network (NN) and a neural network (NN). The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 receives a prompt containing an instruction, as well as inference data such as voice data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing 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 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.

[0151] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] The correspondence between each part and the device or control part is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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).

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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."

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.

[0168] 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.

[0169] 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.

[0170] 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.

[0171] 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.

[0172] 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.

[0173] All publications, patent applications, and technical standards mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent application, or technical standard was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference.
