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 appointment scheduling support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that takes client information as input, analyzes voice in real time, and presents an appropriate script. This system is particularly useful for salespeople in new business divisions of large companies and startups looking for new clients. These salespeople need to obtain appointments through cold calls, telemarketing, or client inquiry forms because they do not have leads, but they are often turned away at reception or asked to send materials, and are unable to secure an appointment. This system learns information about the clients to be scheduled in advance and analyzes the voice during telemarketing in real time. It then provides a script that tells the user what to say next and how to respond. This solves the problem of not knowing how to get an appointment, and by accumulating history, it teaches the user the appointment-getting method that suits them. For example, the user inputs information about the client they want to schedule an appointment with into the system. Next, the system analyzes the voice during telemarketing in real time and presents an appropriate script. For example, if the client says, "Please send me some materials," the system will present a script such as, "Before I send you the materials, could I talk to you for a bit?" Furthermore, the system learns the user's habits and past history, and teaches them the most suitable appointment-setting methods. For example, based on the user's past successful appointment-setting methods, it suggests what approach to take next. This mechanism improves the success rate of appointment setting and supports salespeople who have sales skills but are unable to secure appointments. As a result, it eliminates the situation where good products cannot be sold, making Japan and the world a better place. With this, the appointment scheduling support system allows for efficient appointment scheduling by inputting client information, analyzing voice in real time, and presenting appropriate scripts.
[0029] The appointment scheduling support system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, an analysis unit, and a presentation unit. The reception unit inputs client information. Client information includes, but is not limited to, names, contact information, and past transaction history. The reception unit can, for example, manually input client information. The reception unit can also automatically acquire client information. For example, the reception unit can acquire information by scraping it from the client's website. The analysis unit analyzes the audio during the telemarketing call in real time based on the client information input by the reception unit. The analysis unit can, for example, use speech recognition technology to transcribe the client's statements into text and analyze that text. The analysis unit can, for example, use deep learning to analyze the audio. The analysis unit can also use HMM (Hidden Markov Model) to analyze the audio. The presentation unit presents an appropriate script based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. The presentation unit presents a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. The presentation unit, for example, if a client says, "Please send me the materials," will present a script such as, "Before I send you the materials, could I have a brief chat with you?" The presentation unit can also provide a script on what to say next based on the client's statements. For example, if a client says, "I'm busy right now," it will present a script such as, "Could you spare some time later?" In this way, the appointment scheduling support system can efficiently schedule appointments by inputting client information, analyzing voice in real time, and presenting appropriate scripts.
[0030] The reception department inputs client information. This information includes, but is not limited to, names, contact information, and past transaction history. The reception department can, for example, manually input client information. Alternatively, it can automatically retrieve client information. For example, it can scrape information from the client's website. Specifically, in the case of manual input, an operator inputs the client's name, contact information, and past transaction history through a dedicated interface. In the case of automatic retrieval, the reception department uses scraping techniques to collect the necessary information from the client's website or publicly available databases. Scraping is the process of analyzing the HTML structure of a webpage and extracting specific information. For example, it can access the client's website, identify the section containing the name and contact information, and automatically retrieve that information. It is also possible to retrieve client information using an API. Using an API allows for direct interaction with the client's system, enabling the acquisition of the latest information in real time. This allows the reception department to efficiently and accurately collect client information using both manual input and automatic retrieval methods. Furthermore, the reception department stores the collected client information in a database, making it accessible to the analysis and presentation departments. This allows for smoother information sharing across the entire system, improving the efficiency of appointment scheduling.
[0031] The analysis unit analyzes the audio during telemarketing calls in real time based on client information entered by the reception unit. For example, the analysis unit uses speech recognition technology to transcribe the client's statements into text and then analyzes that text. The analysis unit can also analyze audio using deep learning, for example. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze audio using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). Specifically, speech recognition technology is the process of transcribing the client's statements into text in real time, while deep learning models learn from large amounts of audio data to achieve highly accurate speech recognition. For example, if a client says, "Please send me the materials," the speech recognition technology transcribes this statement into text, and the analysis unit analyzes that text to understand the client's intent. HMM is a technology that models the temporal fluctuations of audio signals and is used to improve the accuracy of speech recognition. The analysis unit combines these technologies to analyze the client's statements with high accuracy and determine what should be said next. In addition, the analysis unit can refer to past interactions and transaction history with clients to understand their needs and interests. This allows the analysis unit to analyze the client's statements in real time and respond appropriately and quickly.
[0032] The presentation unit presents appropriate scripts based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the presentation unit can provide a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. For instance, if a client says, "Please send me the materials," the presentation unit might suggest, "Before I send you the materials, could I have a brief chat with you?" The presentation unit can also provide a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. For example, if a client says, "I'm busy right now," the presentation unit might suggest, "Could you spare some time later?" Specifically, the presentation unit selects the most suitable script from a pre-prepared set based on the text data provided by the analysis unit and presents it to the operator. The scripts are dynamically generated according to the client's statements, past transaction history, and current situation. For example, if a client says, "I'd like to know more about the price," the presentation unit might suggest, "Before I give you details about the price, what use case are you considering?" The presentation unit also provides guidelines and points to note for operators when responding according to the scripts. This allows operators to communicate smoothly with clients and increases the success rate of appointment scheduling. Furthermore, the presentation unit can collect operator feedback and continuously improve the accuracy and effectiveness of the script. This allows the presentation unit to always provide the latest information and optimal scripts, improving the efficiency and success rate of appointment scheduling.
[0033] The learning unit can pre-learn client information. For example, the learning unit can store client information in a database and learn using machine learning algorithms. For example, the learning unit can learn about a client's interests and preferences based on their past transaction history. The learning unit can also collect information from the client's website and social media to learn about the client's latest trends. For example, the learning unit can collect product information and news articles from the client's website to understand the client's latest trends. By pre-learning client information, the learning unit can present more appropriate scripts. Some or all of the above processes in the learning unit may be performed using AI, for example, or not. For example, the learning unit can store client information in a database and learn using an AI model.
[0034] The history unit can learn the user's habits and past history. For example, the history unit can store the user's call records in a database and learn using machine learning algorithms. For example, the history unit can learn the user's speaking patterns and frequently used phrases. The history unit can also learn successful appointment-setting methods based on the user's past appointment-setting history. For example, the history unit can analyze the user's past call records and extract successful appointment-setting methods. As a result, the history unit can present individually optimized scripts by learning the user's habits and past history. Some or all of the above processing in the history unit may be performed using AI, for example, or not using AI. For example, the history unit can store the user's call records in a database and learn using an AI model.
[0035] The teaching unit can instruct users on how to schedule appointments based on a provided script. For example, the teaching unit can instruct users on speaking techniques and questioning methods. For instance, the teaching unit might advise users that "it's important to ask clear questions to clients." The teaching unit can also provide users with specific scripts and instruct them on how to schedule appointments based on those scripts. For example, the teaching unit might provide users with specific scripts such as "Now, say this." In this way, the teaching unit improves the user's appointment-setting skills by instructing them on how to schedule appointments based on the provided scripts. Some or all of the above processes in the teaching unit may be performed using AI, for example, or not. For example, the teaching unit can use an AI model to instruct users on how to schedule appointments.
[0036] The analysis unit can transcribe the client's statements into text using speech recognition technology and analyze that text. The analysis unit can analyze speech using, for example, deep learning. For example, the analysis unit transcribes the client's statements into text using speech recognition technology and analyzes that text. The analysis unit can also analyze speech using HMM (Hidden Markov Model). For example, the analysis unit transcribes the client's statements into text using speech recognition technology and analyzes that text. As a result, the analysis unit can accurately transcribe the client's statements into text using speech recognition technology, improving the accuracy of the analysis. Some or all of the above-described processes in the analysis unit may be performed using, for example, AI, or not using AI. For example, the analysis unit can use an AI model to transcribe the client's statements into text using speech recognition technology and analyze that text.
[0037] The presentation unit can provide a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements.

[0062] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.
[0063] Step 1: The reception desk enters client information. Client information includes, for example, name, contact information, and past transaction history. The reception desk can manually enter client information. Alternatively, client information can be automatically retrieved, for example, by scraping information from the client's website. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the audio during the telemarketing call in real time based on the client information entered by the reception unit. The analysis unit uses speech recognition technology to transcribe the client's statements into text and then analyzes that text. Technologies such as deep learning and HMM (Hidden Markov Model) are used for the analysis. Step 3: The presentation unit presents an appropriate script based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. The presentation unit provides a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. For example, if the client says, "Please send me the materials," the presentation unit will present a script such as, "Could I speak with you briefly before sending the materials?" Also, if the client says, "I'm busy right now," the presentation unit will present a script such as, "Could you spare some time later?"
[0064] (Example of form 2) The appointment scheduling support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that takes client information as input, analyzes voice in real time, and presents an appropriate script. This system is particularly useful for salespeople in new business divisions of large companies and startups looking for new clients. These salespeople need to obtain appointments through cold calls, telemarketing, or client inquiry forms because they do not have leads, but they are often turned away at reception or asked to send materials, and are unable to secure an appointment. This system learns information about the clients to be scheduled in advance and analyzes the voice during telemarketing in real time. It then provides a script that tells the user what to say next and how to respond. This solves the problem of not knowing how to get an appointment, and by accumulating history, it teaches the user the appointment-getting method that suits them. For example, the user inputs information about the client they want to schedule an appointment with into the system. Next, the system analyzes the voice during telemarketing in real time and presents an appropriate script. For example, if the client says, "Please send me some materials," the system will present a script such as, "Before I send you the materials, could I talk to you for a bit?" Furthermore, the system learns the user's habits and past history, and teaches them the most suitable appointment-setting methods. For example, based on the user's past successful appointment-setting methods, it suggests what approach to take next. This mechanism improves the success rate of appointment setting and supports salespeople who have sales skills but are unable to secure appointments. As a result, it eliminates the situation where good products cannot be sold, making Japan and the world a better place. With this, the appointment scheduling support system allows for efficient appointment scheduling by inputting client information, analyzing voice in real time, and presenting appropriate scripts.
[0065] The appointment scheduling support system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, an analysis unit, and a presentation unit. The reception unit inputs client information. Client information includes, but is not limited to, names, contact information, and past transaction history. The reception unit can, for example, manually input client information. The reception unit can also automatically acquire client information. For example, the reception unit can acquire information by scraping it from the client's website. The analysis unit analyzes the audio during the telemarketing call in real time based on the client information input by the reception unit. The analysis unit can, for example, use speech recognition technology to transcribe the client's statements into text and analyze that text. The analysis unit can, for example, use deep learning to analyze the audio. The analysis unit can also use HMM (Hidden Markov Model) to analyze the audio. The presentation unit presents an appropriate script based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. The presentation unit presents a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. The presentation unit, for example, if a client says, "Please send me the materials," will present a script such as, "Before I send you the materials, could I have a brief chat with you?" The presentation unit can also provide a script on what to say next based on the client's statements. For example, if a client says, "I'm busy right now," it will present a script such as, "Could you spare some time later?" In this way, the appointment scheduling support system can efficiently schedule appointments by inputting client information, analyzing voice in real time, and presenting appropriate scripts.
[0066] The reception department inputs client information. This information includes, but is not limited to, names, contact information, and past transaction history. The reception department can, for example, manually input client information. Alternatively, it can automatically retrieve client information. For example, it can scrape information from the client's website. Specifically, in the case of manual input, an operator inputs the client's name, contact information, and past transaction history through a dedicated interface. In the case of automatic retrieval, the reception department uses scraping techniques to collect the necessary information from the client's website or publicly available databases. Scraping is the process of analyzing the HTML structure of a webpage and extracting specific information. For example, it can access the client's website, identify the section containing the name and contact information, and automatically retrieve that information. It is also possible to retrieve client information using an API. Using an API allows for direct interaction with the client's system, enabling the acquisition of the latest information in real time. This allows the reception department to efficiently and accurately collect client information using both manual input and automatic retrieval methods. Furthermore, the reception department stores the collected client information in a database, making it accessible to the analysis and presentation departments. This allows for smoother information sharing across the entire system, improving the efficiency of appointment scheduling.
[0067] The analysis unit analyzes the audio during telemarketing calls in real time based on client information entered by the reception unit. For example, the analysis unit uses speech recognition technology to transcribe the client's statements into text and then analyzes that text. The analysis unit can also analyze audio using deep learning, for example. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze audio using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). Specifically, speech recognition technology is the process of transcribing the client's statements into text in real time, while deep learning models learn from large amounts of audio data to achieve highly accurate speech recognition. For example, if a client says, "Please send me the materials," the speech recognition technology transcribes this statement into text, and the analysis unit analyzes that text to understand the client's intent. HMM is a technology that models the temporal fluctuations of audio signals and is used to improve the accuracy of speech recognition. The analysis unit combines these technologies to analyze the client's statements with high accuracy and determine what should be said next. In addition, the analysis unit can refer to past interactions and transaction history with clients to understand their needs and interests. This allows the analysis unit to analyze the client's statements in real time and respond appropriately and quickly.
[0068] The presentation unit presents appropriate scripts based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the presentation unit can provide a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. For instance, if a client says, "Please send me the materials," the presentation unit might suggest, "Before I send you the materials, could I have a brief chat with you?" The presentation unit can also provide a script indicating what to say next based on the client's statements. For example, if a client says, "I'm busy right now," the presentation unit might suggest, "Could you spare some time later?" Specifically, the presentation unit selects the most suitable script from a pre-prepared set based on the text data provided by the analysis unit and presents it to the operator. The scripts are dynamically generated according to the client's statements, past transaction history, and current situation. For example, if a client says, "I'd like to know more about the price," the presentation unit might suggest, "Before I give you details about the price, what use case are you considering?" The presentation unit also provides guidelines and points to note for operators when responding according to the scripts. This allows operators to communicate smoothly with clients and increases the success rate of appointment scheduling. Furthermore, the presentation unit can collect operator feedback and continuously improve the accuracy and effectiveness of the script. This allows the presentation unit to always provide the latest information and optimal scripts, improving the efficiency and success rate of appointment scheduling.

[0143] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54.

[0144] Figure 6 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the headset terminal 314. As shown in Figure 6, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.
[0145] 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. 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.
[0146] 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.
[0147] In the headset terminal 314, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific 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 program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The headset terminal 314 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.
[0148] 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.

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.).
[0149] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset terminal 314. In the headset terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and display 343 to output the result of the specific processing.

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. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. 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.

[0153] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0154] 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.

[0157] 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.
[0158] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS image sensor or CCD image sensor, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).
[0159] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54.

[0160] 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.
[0161] 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.
[0162] 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. 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.

Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.
[0164] 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. The specific processing is achieved by processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on RAM 48. Robot 414 also has data generation model 58 and emotion identification model 59, similar to those of the robot, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0165] 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.).
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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).

[0168] 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.
[0169] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, analysis unit, presentation unit, learning unit, history unit, and teaching unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit can receive client information via the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The analysis unit can analyze voice in real time via the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The presentation unit can present an appropriate script via the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The learning unit can pre-learn client information via the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The history unit can learn the user's habits and past history via the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The teaching unit can teach the robot 414 how to obtain an appointment via the control unit 46A. 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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."
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
[0185] Furthermore, although the above-described examples were divided into four embodiments, some or all of these embodiments may be combined. Also, the smart device 14, smart glasses 214, headset terminal 314, and robot 414 are just examples, and they may be combined, or other devices may be used. Also, although the above-described examples were divided into two embodiments, Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, these may be combined.

For example, the above descriptions of the structure, function, operation, and effect are examples of the structure, function, operation, and effect of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that you may delete unnecessary parts, add new elements, or replace elements in the descriptions and illustrations presented above, as long as you do not deviate from the essence of the technical aspects of this disclosure. Furthermore, in order to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of this disclosure, explanations of common technical knowledge and other things that do not require special explanation to enable the implementation of the technical aspects of this disclosure have been omitted from the descriptions and illustrations presented above.
