[0102] The management unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the viewing reservation management method based on the estimated user emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the management unit will perform detailed viewing reservation management. For example, if the user is stressed, the management unit will perform simple viewing reservation management. For example, if the user is excited, the management unit will perform visually stimulating viewing reservation management. This allows for more effective viewing reservation management by adjusting the viewing reservation management method according to the user's emotions. Emotion estimation is achieved using an emotion estimation function, for example, using an emotion engine or generative AI.

Some or all of the above processing in the management unit may be performed using AI, for example, or not using AI. For example, the management unit can input user emotion data into a generative AI and have the generative AI perform emotion estimation.

[0103] The management department can select the optimal management method by referring to the user's past viewing reservation history during management. For example, the management department can analyze patterns of content that users have previously reserved to view and select the optimal management method. For example, the management department can identify a tendency for users to reserve content during specific time slots from their viewing reservation history and concentrate management during those time slots. For example, the management department can prioritize managing content that is frequently viewed based on the user's viewing reservation history. In this way, the optimal management method can be selected by referring to the user's past viewing reservation history. Some or all of the above processes in the management department may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI.

[0106] The system according to the embodiment is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible, for example, as follows.

[0107] The data collection unit can collect not only the user's viewing history but also the user's voice commands. For example, the data collection unit can record the content that the user instructed to watch by voice and add it to the viewing history. For example, the data collection unit can collect keywords that the user searched for by voice and reflect the relevant content in the viewing history. For example, the data collection unit can collect rating information of content that the user rated by voice and integrate it into the viewing history. In this way, by collecting voice commands, the user's viewing history can be understood in more detail.

[0108] The service provider can offer interactive content based on the user's viewing history. For example, the service provider can offer an interactive drama where the user can choose options while watching. The service provider can offer an interactive quiz show where the user can answer quizzes while watching. The service provider can offer an interactive anime where the user can choose how the story unfolds while watching. In this way, the service provider can enrich the user's viewing experience by offering interactive content.

[0109] The management department can set viewing reminders in addition to user viewing reservations. For example, the management department can set reminders for content that users have reserved for viewing and send notifications before the viewing time. The management department can set reminders for content that users want to watch and send notifications when it becomes available. The management department can set reminders for the next episode of a series that a user is currently watching and send notifications when it becomes available. This ensures that users don't miss out on content they want to watch by setting viewing reminders.

[0110] The data collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the method of collecting viewing history based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the data collection unit will collect viewing history in detail. If the user is stressed, the data collection unit will simplify the method of collecting viewing history. If the user is excited, the data collection unit will collect viewing history in real time. By adjusting the method of collecting viewing history according to the user's emotions, the burden on the user can be reduced.

[0111] The data collection unit can collect information about the user's viewing environment in addition to their past viewing history. For example, the data collection unit can collect information about the type of device the user is using to view content. For example, the data collection unit can collect information about the location where the user is viewing content. For example, the data collection unit can collect information about the time of day the user is viewing content. By collecting information about the viewing environment, it becomes possible to understand the user's viewing history in more detail.

[0112] The data collection unit can filter viewing history based on the user's current interests. For example, it can prioritize collecting content in genres the user is currently interested in. For example, it can collect relevant viewing history based on keywords the user has recently searched for. For example, it can analyze trends in online communities the user participates in and collect relevant viewing history. By filtering viewing history based on the user's current interests, it is possible to collect highly relevant data.

[0113] The data collection unit can estimate the user's emotions and determine the priority of viewing history to collect based on the estimated emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the data collection unit will prioritize collecting detailed viewing history data. If the user is stressed, the data collection unit will prioritize collecting only important viewing history data. If the user is excited, the data collection unit will prioritize collecting viewing history data in real time. This allows for the priority collection of important data by determining the priority of viewing history according to the user's emotions.

[0114] The data collection unit can prioritize the collection of highly relevant viewing history by considering the user's geographical location when collecting viewing history. For example, if the user is in a specific region, the data collection unit will prioritize the collection of viewing history of content related to that region. For example, if the user is traveling, the data collection unit will prioritize the collection of viewing history of content related to the travel destination. For example, if the user is at home, the data collection unit will prioritize the collection of viewing history related to events and news around the user's home. In this way, by considering the user's geographical location, the data collection unit can prioritize the collection of highly relevant viewing history.

[0115] The data collection unit can analyze a user's social media activity and collect relevant history when collecting viewing history. For example, the data collection unit can collect relevant viewing history based on content shared by the user on social media. For example, the data collection unit can analyze the content posted by accounts that the user follows and collect relevant viewing history. For example, the data collection unit can analyze the trends of groups and communities that the user participates in and collect relevant viewing history. In this way, relevant viewing history can be collected by analyzing the user's social media activity.

[0116] The recommendation system can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the way recommendations are presented based on those emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, the recommendation system will provide recommendations with detailed explanations. If the user is stressed, the recommendation system will provide concise and to-the-point recommendations. If the user is excited, the recommendation system will provide recommendations with visually stimulating effects. By adjusting the way recommendations are presented according to the user's emotions, more effective recommendations become possible.

[0117] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0118] Step 1: The data collection unit collects the user's viewing history. This viewing history includes the title of the content viewed, viewing time, and viewing frequency. The data collection unit collects metadata of the content viewed by the user and stores it as viewing history. The data collection unit also updates the user's viewing history in real time, instantly adding newly viewed content to the viewing history. Furthermore, the data collection unit ensures data security by regularly backing up the viewing history and saving it to cloud storage. Step 2: The recommendation unit provides personalized recommendations based on the viewing history collected by the data collection unit. The recommendation unit analyzes the user's past viewing history, interests, and behavioral patterns to recommend the most suitable content. For example, it recommends content similar to what the user has watched in the past, or new genres of content based on the user's interests. It also learns the user's behavioral patterns and makes recommendations at the optimal time. Step 3: The identification unit identifies the content recommended by the recommendation unit. The identification unit identifies content based on metadata, tag information, and relevance to viewing history. For example, it identifies content based on its title and genre, and improves the accuracy of identification by evaluating its relevance to viewing history. It also identifies content based on tags assigned to it. Step 4: The notification unit notifies the user of the content identified by the identification unit. The notification unit adjusts the timing of the notification, the notification method (email, push notification, etc.), and the details of the notification content. For example, it sends a push notification to the user's smartphone at a time when the user is available to view the content. It also customizes the notification content and adjusts it based on the user's interests.

[0119] 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 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.

[0121] Furthermore, the processing performed by the data processing system 10 described above is carried out by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the smart device 14, but it may also be carried out by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the smart device 14. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the smart device 14 or an external device, and the smart device 14 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0122] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, recommendation unit, identification unit, notification unit, provision unit, and management unit, is implemented, for example, in at least one of the smart device 14 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit collects the user's viewing history using the control unit 46A of the smart device 14 and stores and backs up the viewing history using the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The recommendation unit makes personalized recommendations using the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, and the identification unit identifies content using the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12.

The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.

[0139] [Third Embodiment] Figure 5 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment.

[0140] As shown in Figure 5, the data processing system 310 includes a data processing device 12 and a headset terminal 314. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0141] 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. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication interface 26 is connected to a network 54. An example of the network 54 is a WAN and / or LAN.

[0142] The headset terminal 314 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a display 343. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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 (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor or a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) 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).

[0145] 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. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0146] 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.

[0147] 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.

[0148] 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.

[0149] 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.

[0150] 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.).

[0151] 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 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] The data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 310 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314, but may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the headset terminal 314 or an external device, and the headset terminal 314 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0154] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, recommendation unit, identification unit, notification unit, provision unit, and management unit, is implemented, for example, by at least one of the headset terminal 314 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit collects the user's viewing history by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314 and stores and backs up the viewing history by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The recommendation unit makes personalized recommendations by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, and the identification unit identifies content by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The notification unit notifies the user by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314, and the provision unit provides highlight videos and short movies by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314. The management unit manages viewing reservations by the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314 and backs up viewing reservations by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.

[0155] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0156] 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 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. The processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication interface 26 are also connected to the bus 34.

[0158] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a controlled object 443. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, speaker 240, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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).

[0161] 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. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.).

[0168] 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.

[0169] 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.

[0170] 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.

[0171] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, recommendation unit, identification unit, notification unit, provision unit, and management unit, is implemented, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit collects the user's viewing history by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and stores and backs up the viewing history by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The recommendation unit makes personalized recommendations by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, and the identification unit identifies content by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The notification unit notifies the user by the control unit 46A of the robot 414, and the provision unit provides highlight videos and short movies by the control unit 46A of the robot 414. The management unit manages viewing reservations by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and backs up viewing reservations by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.

[0172] 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.

[0173] 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.

[0174] 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.

[0175] 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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."

[0178] 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] 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.

[0181] 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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.

[0184] 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.

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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.

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.
