Also, in this specification, when expressing three or more matters connected by "and / or", the same concept as "A and / or B" is applied.
[0016] [First Embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.
[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. Also, the database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).
[0019] The smart device 14 comprises a computer 36, a receiving device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. The computer 36 comprises a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The receiving device 38, output device 40, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0020] The reception device 38 is equipped with a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and accepts user input. The touch panel 38A accepts user input via touch by detecting contact with an object (e.g., a pen or finger). The microphone 38B accepts user input via voice by detecting the user's voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and microphone 38B to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 (see Figure 2) acquires the data indicating the user input.
[0021] The output device 40 includes a display 40A and a speaker 40B, and presents data to the user by outputting the data in a form perceptible to the user (e.g., audio and / or text). The display 40A displays visible information such as text and images according to instructions from the processor 46. The speaker 40B outputs audio according to instructions from the processor 46. The camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system such as a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor.
[0022] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various types of information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54.
[0023] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.
[0024] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" related to the technology of this disclosure. 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 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0025] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the 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 the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0026] In the smart device 14, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The specific processing program 60 is used in conjunction with the specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 operating as a control unit 46A according to the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The smart device 14 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0027] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device having the data generation model 58. The data processing device 12 may also be a server device or a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.). Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.
[0028] (Example of form 1) The interface generation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that generates an interface tailored to the user's (engineer's) level, knowledge, and preferences using natural language. This interface generation system allows the user to input instructions in natural language, and the generating AI analyzes these instructions to generate and execute CUI-level commands. It can also generate a user-specific configuration screen based on information from the equipment. This makes it easy for engineers unfamiliar with CUI to operate the system. For example, if a user instructs, "Create a screen to set the VLAN IDs for all ports and display the current VLAN ID settings," the generating AI analyzes the instruction and generates appropriate commands. The generated commands are executed using a CUI-based system, and the results are output. The output results are recognized by the AI, and a configuration screen is generated. This configuration screen can be customized to suit the user's level and preferences. Furthermore, the same configuration screen can be provided for different models and manufacturers, and it can be used even with low-spec network equipment. Additionally, screens that have been configured can be saved as favorites and reused. This improves the engineer's work efficiency and prevents time loss due to typos and spelling errors. This system aims to improve the current situation where the command-line interface (CUI) is the main interface and eliminate the inconveniences of the graphical user interface (GUI). By utilizing AI-generated interfaces, it provides interfaces tailored to user needs, creating an environment that is easy for all system engineers to use. As a result, the interface generation system can provide interfaces that match the user's level, knowledge, and preferences.
[0029] The interface generation system according to the embodiment comprises a reception unit, a generation unit, an execution unit, and a generation screen unit. The reception unit receives instructions in natural language. These instructions include, but are not limited to, speech instructions and text instructions. The reception unit converts speech instructions to text using, for example, speech recognition technology. The reception unit also provides a text input interface, allowing the user to directly input text instructions. The generation unit analyzes the instructions received by the reception unit and generates CUI-level commands. The generation unit analyzes the instructions using, for example, natural language processing techniques such as morphological analysis, grammatical analysis, and semantic analysis. The generation unit generates complex commands based on user instructions using a generation AI. For example, the generation AI uses a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) to analyze user instructions and generate appropriate commands. The generation unit can also generate commands including conditional branching based on user instructions using the generation AI. The execution unit executes the commands generated by the generation unit. The execution unit provides, for example, an environment for executing shell commands or scripts. The execution unit executes the generated commands and retrieves the results. For example, the execution unit executes commands in a shell environment and obtains their output. The execution unit can also execute scripts and save the results to a log file. The screen generation unit generates a user-specific settings screen based on information from the device. For example, the screen generation unit obtains sensor data and log information from the device and generates a settings screen based on it. The screen generation unit uses a generation AI to customize the settings screen to suit the user's level and preferences. For example, the screen generation unit adjusts the layout and colors of the settings screen based on the user's profile information and past settings history. Furthermore, the screen generation unit can provide the same settings screen for different models and manufacturers. For example, the screen generation unit generates a common settings screen that corresponds to different brands and models of devices. As a result, the interface generation system according to the embodiment can provide an interface tailored to the user's level, knowledge, and preferences. Some or all of the above-described processes in the screen generation unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without using AI.For example, the screen generation unit can input sensor data acquired from the device into the generation AI, and have the generation AI execute the generation of the settings screen.
[0030] The reception unit accepts instructions in natural language. These instructions include, but are not limited to, voice and text instructions. The reception unit converts voice instructions to text using, for example, speech recognition technology. Specifically, deep learning-based speech recognition models are often used as speech recognition technology. These models achieve high-precision speech recognition by learning from large amounts of voice data. When a voice instruction is input, the speech recognition model analyzes the voice data and converts it into corresponding text data. The reception unit also provides a text input interface, allowing users to directly input text instructions. This text input interface is provided, for example, as a form on a web browser or an input field in a mobile app. This allows users to give instructions to the system not only using voice but also using text. Furthermore, the reception unit analyzes the intent of the input text instructions using natural language processing technology. For example, morphological analysis is used to divide the text into words, and grammatical analysis is used to analyze the sentence structure. This allows the reception unit to accurately understand the user's instructions and pass them on to the next processing step.
[0031] The generation unit analyzes the instructions received by the reception unit and generates CUI-level commands. The generation unit analyzes the instructions using natural language processing techniques such as morphological analysis, grammatical analysis, and semantic analysis. Specifically, morphological analysis divides the input text into words and identifies the part of speech of each word. Grammatical analysis analyzes the structure of the sentence and identifies sentence elements such as subject, predicate, and object. Semantic analysis understands the meaning of the sentence and grasps the user's intent. The generation unit uses a generation AI to generate complex commands based on the user's instructions. For example, the generation AI uses a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) to analyze the user's instructions and generate appropriate commands. LLM can understand and generate natural language by learning from large amounts of text data. If the user instructs "Copy files and create a backup," the generation AI analyzes this instruction and generates a specific shell command such as "cp file1 file2." The generation unit can also use the generation AI to generate commands that include conditional branching based on the user's instructions. For example, in response to an instruction such as "If there is little disk space left, delete old files and then create a backup," the generating AI will produce a complex command like "if [ $(df / | grep -v Filesystem | awk '{print $4}') -lt 100000 ]; then rm oldfile; fi; cp file1 file2". This allows the generation unit to analyze the user's natural language instructions and convert them into concrete commands.
[0032] The execution unit executes the commands generated by the generation unit. The execution unit provides an environment for executing, for example, shell commands or scripts. Specifically, the execution unit executes commands using a Linux or Windows shell environment. If the generated command is a shell command, the execution unit executes that command in the shell environment and retrieves its output. For example, if a command like "ls -l" is generated, the execution unit executes this command and retrieves a list of files in a directory. The execution unit can also execute scripts and save the results to a log file. For example, if a Python script is generated, the execution unit executes the script using a Python interpreter and saves the results to a log file. Furthermore, the execution unit can parse the execution results of commands and pass them to the next processing step. For example, if the command execution result is an error, the execution unit parses the error message and performs appropriate error handling. This ensures that the execution unit reliably executes the generated commands and processes the results appropriately.
[0033] The screen generation unit generates a user-specific settings screen based on information from the device. For example, it acquires sensor data and log information from the device and generates a settings screen based on that. Specifically, it acquires data from the device's temperature and humidity sensors and adjusts the layout and content of the settings screen based on that data. For example, if the device temperature is high, the screen generation unit will prioritize displaying the cooling fan settings. Furthermore, the screen generation unit uses generation AI to customize the settings screen to suit the user's level and preferences. For example, it adjusts the layout and colors of the settings screen based on the user's profile information and past setting history. If the user is a beginner, the screen generation unit can display only simple settings items and hide detailed settings items. Also, if the user has frequently changed certain settings in the past, those settings items can be prioritized. In addition, the screen generation unit can provide the same settings screen for different models and manufacturers. For example, it can generate a common settings screen that corresponds to different brands and models of devices. This allows users to have a consistent operating experience even when using different devices. Some or all of the above-described processing in the screen generation section may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the screen generation section can input sensor data acquired from the device into the AI generation system and have the AI generation system perform the generation of the settings screen. The AI generation system analyzes the sensor data and generates the optimal settings screen. This allows the screen generation section to provide the user with the optimal settings screen and improve the ease of operation.
[0034] The screen generation section can customize the settings screen to suit the user's level and preferences. For example, the screen generation section can adjust the layout and colors of the settings screen based on the user's profile information. For instance, it can provide a simple layout for beginners and detailed setting options for advanced users. The screen generation section can also generate a settings screen tailored to the user's preferences based on their past settings history. For example, it can automatically reflect the colors and layouts the user has previously selected. This improves usability by providing a settings screen that matches the user's level and preferences. Some or all of the above-described processes in the screen generation section may be performed using AI, or not. For example, the screen generation section can input user profile information into a generating AI and have the generating AI perform the customization of the settings screen.
[0035] The screen generation unit can provide the same settings screen for different models and manufacturers. For example, the screen generation unit generates a common settings screen that corresponds to different brands and models of equipment. For example, the screen generation unit provides the same settings screen for different models of network equipment. Furthermore, the screen generation unit can provide the same settings screen for equipment from different manufacturers. For example, the screen generation unit generates a common settings screen for routers and switches from different manufacturers. This ensures consistency of operation by providing the same settings screen for different models and manufacturers. Some or all of the above-described processes in the screen generation unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the screen generation unit can input equipment information for different models and manufacturers into a generation AI and have the generation AI execute the generation of a common settings screen.
[0036] The screen generation unit can generate configuration screens that can be used even by low-spec network devices. For example, it provides lightweight configuration screens even for devices with low CPU performance or memory capacity. For instance, it generates simple and lightweight configuration screens for low-spec routers and switches. Furthermore, it can generate configuration screens that provide only the minimum necessary functions even for low-spec devices. For example, it provides a configuration screen that displays only basic settings for low-spec devices. This allows for the generation of configuration screens usable by a wide range of devices. Some or all of the above-described processes in the screen generation unit may be performed using AI, or not. For example, the screen generation unit can input low-spec device information into a generation AI and have the generation AI generate a lightweight configuration screen.
[0037] The screen generation section allows users to save screens they have set as favorites and reuse them. The screen generation section provides a function to save screens set by the user. For example, the screen generation section saves the layout and settings of screens set by the user. The screen generation section can also provide a function to reuse saved settings screens. For example, the screen generation section can retrieve and display settings screens saved by the user. This improves the efficiency of the setting process by allowing users to save screens they have set as favorites and reuse them. Some or all of the above-described processes in the screen generation section may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the screen generation section can input information from saved settings screens into a generation AI and have the generation AI generate settings screens for reuse.
[0038] The generation unit can generate complex commands based on user instructions. For example, the generation unit can generate commands that include multiple steps based on user instructions. For example, the generation unit can generate complex commands related to network settings. The generation unit can also generate commands that include conditional branching based on user instructions. For example, the generation unit can generate commands that include conditional branching related to security settings. This allows for detailed operations by generating complex commands based on user instructions. Some or all of the above-described processes in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, for example, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input user instructions into a generation AI and have the generation AI execute the generation of complex commands.
[0039] The reception unit can analyze the user's past instruction history and select the optimal reception method. For example, the reception unit can automatically display instructions that the user has frequently entered in the past as candidates. For example, the reception unit can prioritize displaying frequently used commands from the past instruction history. The reception unit can also prioritize suggesting input methods (voice, text, etc.) that the user has used in the past. For example, the reception unit can prioritize displaying the voice input interface to a user who has frequently used voice input in the past. The reception unit can also predict and suggest instructions to be used during specific time periods based on the user's past instruction history. For example, the reception unit can suggest commands that are frequently used during specific time periods based on past instruction history. In this way, by analyzing past instruction history, the reception unit can provide the user with the most suitable reception method. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the reception unit can input past instruction history data into a generating AI and have the generating AI select the optimal reception method.
[0040] The reception unit can filter instructions based on the user's current projects and areas of interest. For example, the reception unit prioritizes receiving instructions related to the project the user is currently working on. For example, the reception unit suggests relevant commands based on the project's progress. The reception unit can also filter and display relevant instructions based on the user's areas of interest. For example, the reception unit prioritizes displaying commands related to the user's areas of interest. The reception unit can also suggest relevant instructions based on areas the user has shown interest in in the past. For example, the reception unit suggests relevant commands based on past areas of interest. This allows for the priority reception of highly relevant instructions by filtering based on the current project and areas of interest. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the reception unit can input project information and area of interest data into a generating AI and have the generating AI perform the filtering.
[0041] The reception unit can prioritize receiving instructions that are highly relevant, taking into account the user's geographical location. For example, if the user is in a specific region, the reception unit will prioritize receiving instructions related to that region. For example, the reception unit will prioritize displaying commands related to a specific region. Furthermore, if the user is on the move, the reception unit can suggest the most appropriate instructions based on their current location. For example, the reception unit will suggest commands related to the current location to a user who is on the move. Also, if the user is in a specific location, the reception unit can prioritize receiving instructions related to that location. For example, the reception unit will prioritize displaying commands related to a specific location. This allows for the priority of receiving instructions that are highly relevant by considering geographical location information. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, or not. For example, the reception unit can input geographical location information into a generating AI and have the generating AI select highly relevant instructions.
[0042] The reception unit can analyze the user's social media activity when receiving instructions and receive relevant instructions. For example, the reception unit can suggest relevant instructions based on information shared by the user on social media. For example, the reception unit can suggest relevant commands based on information shared on social media. The reception unit can also prioritize receiving instructions related to the user's areas of interest based on their social media activity. For example, the reception unit can analyze social media activity and prioritize displaying commands related to areas of interest. The reception unit can also suggest relevant instructions based on accounts the user follows on social media. For example, the reception unit can suggest commands related to followed accounts. This allows for the priority of receiving relevant instructions by analyzing social media activity. Some or all of the above processing in the reception unit may be performed using AI, for example, or not using AI. For example, the reception unit can input social media activity data into a generating AI and have the generating AI select relevant instructions.
[0043] The generation unit can adjust the level of detail of the generated commands based on the importance of the instructions. For example, the generation unit generates detailed commands for important instructions. For example, it generates detailed commands for high-priority network settings. The generation unit can also generate commands with standard level of detail for general instructions. For example, it generates commands with standard level of detail for general system administration. The generation unit can also generate concise commands for simple instructions. For example, it generates concise commands for simple tasks. By adjusting the level of detail of the generated commands based on the importance of the instructions, commands with appropriate level of detail can be generated. Some or all of the above processing in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, for example, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input instruction importance data into the generation AI and have the generation AI perform the level of detail adjustment.
[0044] The generation unit can apply different generation algorithms depending on the category of the instruction when generating commands. For example, in the case of instructions related to network settings, the generation unit can generate commands by applying a specific algorithm. For example, the generation unit can generate commands using an algorithm specialized for network settings. The generation unit can also generate commands by applying a different algorithm in the case of instructions related to security settings. For example, the generation unit can generate commands using an algorithm specialized for security settings. Furthermore, the generation unit can generate commands by applying yet another algorithm in the case of instructions related to system administration. For example, the generation unit can generate commands using an algorithm specialized for system administration. In this way, appropriate commands can be generated by applying different generation algorithms depending on the category of the instruction. Some or all of the above processing in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, for example, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input instruction category data into the generation AI and have the generation AI execute the application of the generation algorithm.
[0045] The generation unit can determine the generation priority based on the timing of instruction submission when generating commands. For example, in the case of urgent instructions, the generation unit generates commands with the highest priority. For example, the generation unit generates commands with the highest priority for tasks with high urgency. The generation unit can also generate commands with a standard priority for regular instructions. For example, the generation unit generates commands with a standard priority for regularly scheduled system maintenance. The generation unit can also postpone the generation of commands for long-term instructions. For example, the generation unit postpones the generation of commands for long-term projects. This allows commands to be generated at the appropriate time by determining the generation priority based on the timing of instruction submission. Some or all of the above processing in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, or not. For example, the generation unit can input instruction submission timing data into the generation AI and have the generation AI perform the priority determination.
[0046] The generation unit can adjust the order of command generation based on the relevance of instructions. For example, the generation unit can prioritize the generation of commands related to important instructions. For example, it can prioritize the generation of commands related to high-priority tasks. The generation unit can also generate commands related to general instructions in a standard order. For example, it can generate commands related to general system administration in a standard order. The generation unit can also postpone the generation of commands related to simple instructions. For example, it can postpone the generation of commands related to simple tasks. This allows important instructions to be processed preferentially by adjusting the order of generation based on the relevance of instructions. Some or all of the above processing in the generation unit may be performed using a generation AI, for example, or without a generation AI. For example, the generation unit can input instruction relevance data into a generation AI and have the generation AI perform the adjustment of the generation order.
[0047] The execution unit can select the optimal execution method by referring to past execution history when executing a command. For example, the execution unit can select the optimal execution method based on past successful execution methods. The execution unit can also select an execution method that avoids risks by referring to past failures. The execution unit can also select the most efficient execution method from past execution history. For example, the execution unit can select the most efficient execution method based on past execution history. In this way, the optimal execution method can be selected by referring to past execution history. Some or all of the above processing in the execution unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the execution unit can input past execution history data into a generating AI and have the generating AI select the optimal execution method.
[0048] The execution unit can customize the execution method based on the user's current situation when a command is executed. For example, if the user is in the office, the execution unit can provide the execution method best suited to the office environment. The execution unit can also provide the execution method best suited to the remote environment if the user is working remotely. The execution unit can also provide the execution method best suited to the mobile environment if the user is on the move. This allows the execution unit to provide the optimal execution method by customizing the execution method based on the user's current situation. Some or all of the above processing in the execution unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the execution unit can input the user's current situation data into a generating AI and have the generating AI perform the customization of the execution method.
[0049] The execution unit can select the optimal execution method when executing a command, taking into account the user's geographical location information.

[0063] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.
[0064] Step 1: The reception desk receives instructions in natural language. These instructions include voice and text. The reception desk uses speech recognition technology to convert voice instructions into text. It also provides a text input interface, allowing users to directly input text instructions.

It can also generate a user-specific configuration screen based on information from the equipment. This makes it easy for engineers unfamiliar with CUI to operate the system. For example, if a user instructs, "Create a screen to set the VLAN IDs for all ports and display the current VLAN ID settings," the generating AI analyzes the instruction and generates appropriate commands. The generated commands are executed using a CUI-based system, and the results are output. The output results are recognized by the AI, and a configuration screen is generated. This configuration screen can be customized to suit the user's level and preferences. Furthermore, the same configuration screen can be provided for different models and manufacturers, and it can be used even with low-spec network equipment. Additionally, screens that have been configured can be saved as favorites and reused. This improves the engineer's work efficiency and prevents time loss due to typos and spelling errors.

[0067] The reception unit accepts instructions in natural language. These instructions include, but are not limited to, voice and text instructions. The reception unit converts voice instructions to text using, for example, speech recognition technology. Specifically, deep learning-based speech recognition models are often used as speech recognition technology. These models achieve high-precision speech recognition by learning from large amounts of voice data. When a voice instruction is input, the speech recognition model analyzes the voice data and converts it into corresponding text data. The reception unit also provides a text input interface, allowing users to directly input text instructions. This text input interface is provided, for example, as a form on a web browser or an input field in a mobile app. This allows users to give instructions to the system not only using voice but also using text. Furthermore, the reception unit analyzes the intent of the input text instructions using natural language processing technology. For example, morphological analysis is used to divide the text into words, and grammatical analysis is used to analyze the sentence structure. This allows the reception unit to accurately understand the user's instructions and pass them on to the next processing step.
[0068] The generation unit analyzes the instructions received by the reception unit and generates CUI-level commands. The generation unit analyzes the instructions using natural language processing techniques such as morphological analysis, grammatical analysis, and semantic analysis. Specifically, morphological analysis divides the input text into words and identifies the part of speech of each word. Grammatical analysis analyzes the structure of the sentence and identifies sentence elements such as subject, predicate, and object. Semantic analysis understands the meaning of the sentence and grasps the user's intent. The generation unit uses a generation AI to generate complex commands based on the user's instructions. For example, the generation AI uses a text generation AI (e.g., LLM) to analyze the user's instructions and generate appropriate commands. LLM can understand and generate natural language by learning from large amounts of text data. If the user instructs "Copy files and create a backup," the generation AI analyzes this instruction and generates a specific shell command such as "cp file1 file2." The generation unit can also use the generation AI to generate commands that include conditional branching based on the user's instructions. For example, in response to an instruction such as "If there is little disk space left, delete old files and then create a backup," the generating AI will produce a complex command like "if [ $(df / | grep -v Filesystem | awk '{print $4}') -lt 100000 ]; then rm oldfile; fi; cp file1 file2". This allows the generation unit to analyze the user's natural language instructions and convert them into concrete commands.
[0069] The execution unit executes the commands generated by the generation unit. The execution unit provides an environment for executing, for example, shell commands or scripts. Specifically, the execution unit executes commands using a Linux or Windows shell environment. If the generated command is a shell command, the execution unit executes that command in the shell environment and retrieves its output. For example, if a command like "ls -l" is generated, the execution unit executes this command and retrieves a list of files in a directory. The execution unit can also execute scripts and save the results to a log file. For example, if a Python script is generated, the execution unit executes the script using a Python interpreter and saves the results to a log file. Furthermore, the execution unit can parse the execution results of commands and pass them to the next processing step. For example, if the command execution result is an error, the execution unit parses the error message and performs appropriate error handling. This ensures that the execution unit reliably executes the generated commands and processes the results appropriately.

The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.
[0126] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the 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 the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0127] In the smart glasses 214, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The smart glasses 214 also have a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0128] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58.

The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.
[0130] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a 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 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI.

Also, the AI may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.

[0149] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0150] As shown in Figure 7, the data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0151] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32.

[0153] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user and accepts instructions from the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0156] The controlled 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 robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. The robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.
[0157] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.
[0158] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30.

[0160] In robot 414, specific processing is performed by processor 46. A specific program 60 is stored in storage 50. Processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from storage 50 and executes it on RAM 48.

[0161] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also 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 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).
[0162] 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 controlled object 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.
[0163] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a 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 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data).

[0164] 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 performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.
[0165] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, generation unit, execution unit, and generation screen unit, is implemented in at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit receives natural language instructions using the microphone 238 of the robot 414. The generation unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, which analyzes the instructions using natural language processing technology and generates CUI-level commands. The execution unit executes the commands generated by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and obtains the results. The generation screen unit generates and displays a user-specific settings screen using the display of the robot 414. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0166] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting 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 a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.
[0167] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.
[0168] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.
[0169] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.
[0170] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.
[0171] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is 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 the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."
[0172] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.
[0173] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.
[0174] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to the specific processing program 56.
[0175] 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.
[0176] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety 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 the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.
[0177] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.
[0178] The hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of one of these various processors, or it may consist of 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). Alternatively, the hardware resource that performs a specific process may consist of a single processor.
[0179] Examples of configurations using a single processor include, firstly, a configuration in which one or more CPUs and software are combined to form a single processor, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that performs a specific process. Secondly, there is a configuration using a processor that realizes the functions of the entire system, including multiple hardware resources that perform a specific process, on a single IC chip, as exemplified by SoCs (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above types of processors as hardware resources.
[0180] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can more specifically utilize electrical circuits that combine circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. Also, the specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps can be deleted, new steps added, or the processing order rearranged, as long as it does not deviate from the main purpose.
[0181] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined.
