This allows for the provision of more appropriate information by adjusting the frequency of analysis according to the user's emotions.

[0111] The analysis unit can weight the analysis data based on the timing of news publication during the analysis. For example, the analysis unit may prioritize the latest news in its analysis. For example, the analysis unit may disregard past news in its analysis. For example, the analysis unit may prioritize news related to a specific event in its analysis. By weighting the analysis data based on the timing of news publication, more appropriate information can be provided. Some or all of the above processing in the analysis unit may be performed using AI, or it may be performed without AI. For example, the analysis unit can input the timing of news publication into the AI ​​and have the AI ​​perform the weighting of the analysis data.

[0112] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0113] The news gathering system can also include a display unit that estimates the user's emotions and adjusts how news is displayed based on those emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, detailed news articles may be displayed. If the user is in a hurry, concise news articles focusing on the main points may be displayed. If the user is excited, news articles with visually stimulating effects may be displayed. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion engine or generative AI. This enables optimal news display tailored to the user's emotions, improving the user experience.

[0114] The news gathering system can also include a gathering unit that analyzes the user's past news browsing history and selects the optimal news gathering method. For example, it could prioritize gathering news categories that the user has frequently viewed in the past, gather news from sources that the user has viewed for extended periods in the past, or gather news based on news that the user has previously given a high rating to. In this way, by analyzing the user's past news browsing history, the system can provide the most optimal news gathering method.

[0115] The news gathering system can also include a gathering unit that estimates the user's emotions and adjusts the timing of news collection based on those emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, news can be collected during times when they are relaxed. If the user is excited, the latest news can be collected immediately. If the user is relaxed, news can be collected periodically. Emotion estimation can be achieved using an emotion engine or generative AI. This allows news to be delivered at a more appropriate time by adjusting the timing of news collection according to the user's emotions.

[0116] The news gathering system can also include a collection unit that prioritizes collecting highly relevant news by considering the user's geographical location. For example, it could prioritize collecting news related to the user's current location, news related to places the user has visited in the past, and news related to places the user plans to visit in the future. This allows the system to provide highly relevant news by considering the user's geographical location.

[0117] The news gathering system can further include a gathering unit that estimates the user's emotions and determines the priority of news to collect based on those emotions. For example, if the user is stressed, it would prioritize collecting relaxing news. If the user is excited, it would prioritize collecting the latest news. If the user is relaxed, it would prioritize collecting interesting news. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion engine or generative AI. This allows for the provision of more relevant news by prioritizing news according to the user's emotions.

[0118] The news gathering system can further include a collection unit that analyzes users' social media activity and collects relevant news. For example, it can collect news related to news shared by users on social media, news related to accounts followed by users on social media, and news related to news liked by users on social media. This allows the system to provide highly relevant news by analyzing users' social media activity.

[0119] The news gathering system may also include a translation unit that estimates the user's emotions and adjusts the translation's expression based on those emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the translation might use softer language. If the user is in a hurry, it might use concise language. If the user is excited, it might use more emphasized language. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion engine or generative AI. This allows for more appropriate translations by adjusting the translation's expression according to the user's emotions.

[0120] A news gathering system can also include a translation section that prioritizes translation based on the timing of news release. For example, it might prioritize translating the latest news, delaying older news, or prioritizing news related to specific events. By prioritizing translation based on the timing of news release, it can provide more appropriate translations.

[0121] The news gathering system may also include a comparison unit that estimates the user's emotions and adjusts the comparison criteria based on those emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, it might provide detailed comparison criteria; if the user is in a hurry, it might provide concise criteria; and if the user is excited, it might provide visually stimulating criteria. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion engine or generative AI, among other things. This allows for more appropriate comparisons by adjusting the comparison criteria according to the user's emotions.

[0122] The news collection system may also include a comparison unit that improves the accuracy of comparisons by referencing related literature for the news. For example, it may compare by referring to academic papers related to the news, past news reports related to the news, or statistical data related to the news. This improves the accuracy of comparisons by referencing related literature for the news.

[0123] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0124] Step 1: The collection unit collects news. The collection unit can collect news from, for example, news organizations around the world. The collection unit can collect news from, for example, newspapers, television stations, and online media. The collection unit can also automate news collection using AI. Step 2: The translation unit translates and summarizes the news collected by the collection unit. The translation unit uses generative AI to automatically translate news articles and provide summaries. The generative AI uses, for example, text generation AI (e.g., LLM) to translate news articles and generate summaries. The translation unit can also use generative AI to extract and summarize the important parts of news articles. Step 3: The comparison unit compares the news translated and summarized by the translation unit. The comparison unit can, for example, compare news reports from different countries about the same news story. The comparison unit can also automate news comparison using AI. Step 4: The display unit visually displays the news compared by the comparison unit. The display unit can, for example, visually display news trends and statistics. The display unit can also automate the visual display of news using AI.

[0125] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing.

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 (SVMs), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), 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 of the above parts 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.Furthermore, processing performed by AI, including generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced with processing performed by AI, including generative AI.

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.

[0169] 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.

[0170] 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.

[0171] 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.

[0172] 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.

[0173] 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.).

[0174] 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.

[0175] 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. 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, translation unit, comparison unit, display unit, customization unit, and analysis unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and collects news from news organizations around the world. The translation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and automatically translates news articles using generation AI and provides summaries. The comparison unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and compares news from different countries. The display unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and visually displays news trends and statistical information. The customization unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and filters news based on user interests. The analysis unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes news trends using generation AI. The correspondence between each part and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0178] 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] 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.

[0181] 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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."

[0184] 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.

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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.

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.

[0191] 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.

[0192] 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.

[0193] 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.

[0194] The descriptions and illustrations presented above are detailed explanations of the technical aspects of this disclosure and are merely examples of the technical aspects. 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.
