[0055] Step 1: The collection unit collects lifestyle and medical data of the user. Specifically, it collects data on the user's diet, exercise, sleep, etc. For example, the collection unit collects food records entered by the user using a smartphone app, exercise data recorded using a wearable device, and sleep data recorded using a smartwatch. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit and predicts future health status. The analysis is performed using statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms. For example, the analysis unit performs statistical analysis based on the collected data to predict future health status. It can also analyze the data using machine learning algorithms, compare it with past data to perform risk assessment, and calculate a health score. Step 3: The recommendation unit provides health recommendations to the user based on the analysis results obtained by the analysis unit. These recommendations may include suggestions for dietary improvements, exercise, and lifestyle changes. For example, the recommendation unit provides the user with a specific action plan based on the analysis results to raise awareness of lifestyle-related diseases and encourage health promotion activities.
[0056] (Example 2) A health recommendation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a novel method for raising users' awareness of lifestyle-related diseases. It inputs the user's lifestyle habits and MRI and X-ray images generated during medical examinations into a large-scale language model (LLM) to visualize and recommend the user's future health status. This health recommendation system collects data related to the user's lifestyle habits (e.g., diet, exercise, sleep, etc.) and medical data such as MRI and X-ray images generated during medical examinations, and inputs the collected data into the LLM to predict the user's future health status. The LLM compares the data with past data to analyze how the user's lifestyle habits will affect their future health status. Based on the analysis results, the system provides specific health recommendations to the user. For example, the system indicates the risks of continuing the user's current lifestyle habits and areas for improvement. This allows the user to visualize their health status and raises their awareness of lifestyle-related diseases. This system not only raises the user's awareness of lifestyle-related diseases, but also promotes health promotion activities by suggesting specific improvement measures. For example, it provides specific action plans, such as recommendations for improving diet and exercise. This allows the user to proactively manage their health and prevent lifestyle-related diseases.

For example, if the user is feeling stressed, the collection unit can reduce the frequency of recommendations to avoid placing a burden on the user. The analysis unit can analyze the optimal recommendation frequency based on the user's emotion data. Furthermore, if the user is relaxed, the recommendation unit can increase the frequency of recommendations to promote more proactive health promotion. This allows health recommendations to be made at an optimal frequency depending on the user's emotions.
[0091] The health recommendation system can further collect the user's occupational data and use it for analysis. For example, the collection unit can collect data on the user's occupation, working hours, and workplace stress level. This allows the impact of the user's occupation on health to be understood and more accurate health predictions to be made. The analysis unit can also analyze the interaction between the user's occupation and health status based on the collected occupational data. Furthermore, the recommendation unit can suggest to the user ways to improve the work environment and stress management methods based on the analysis results. This makes it possible to provide comprehensive health recommendations that also take the user's occupation into consideration.
[0092] The processing flow of the second embodiment will be briefly explained below.
[0093] Step 1: The collection unit collects lifestyle and medical data of the user. Specifically, it collects data on the user's diet, exercise, sleep, etc. For example, the collection unit collects food records entered by the user using a smartphone app, exercise data recorded using a wearable device, and sleep data recorded using a smartwatch. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit and predicts future health status. The analysis is performed using statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms. For example, the analysis unit performs statistical analysis based on the collected data to predict future health status. It can also analyze the data using machine learning algorithms, compare it with past data to perform risk assessment, and calculate a health score. Step 3: The recommendation unit provides health recommendations to the user based on the analysis results obtained by the analysis unit. These recommendations may include suggestions for dietary improvements, exercise, and lifestyle changes. For example, the recommendation unit provides the user with a specific action plan based on the analysis results to raise awareness of lifestyle-related diseases and encourage health promotion activities.

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.
[0148] 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.
[0149] 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.
[0150] 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).
[0151] 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.
[0152] 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."
[0153] 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.
[0154] 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.
[0155] 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.
[0156] 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.
[0157] 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.
[0158] 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.
[0159] 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.
[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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.
[0163] 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.
