[0028] (Example of form 1) An educational support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that uses generative AI to rate the reliability of news articles and websites, enabling children to access reliable information with peace of mind. The educational support system analyzes the content of news articles and websites using natural language processing technology and evaluates the reliability of the analyzed content in cooperation with a fact-checking API. Based on the evaluation results, it automatically detects misinformation and unreliable content and provides children with appropriate information. For example, the educational support system analyzes the content of news articles and websites using natural language processing technology. In this process, it analyzes the content of the article in detail and extracts important information and keywords. For example, it identifies facts and claims mentioned in the article and collects basic data to evaluate whether they are reliable. Next, the educational support system evaluates the reliability of the analyzed content in cooperation with a fact-checking API. The fact-checking API compares the content of the article with existing reliable databases to determine whether it is accurate. For example, it checks whether the statistical data and citations mentioned in the article are accurate. This allows for an objective evaluation of the reliability of the article. Next, the educational support system automatically detects misinformation and unreliable content based on the evaluation results. For example, if an error is detected by a fact-checking API, the article will be deemed unreliable. In this way, misinformation and unreliable content can be automatically filtered out. Finally, the educational support system provides children with appropriate information. Only articles and websites rated as highly reliable are displayed to children, providing a safe learning environment. For example, reliable information can be provided through educational portal sites and applications. This allows children to access trustworthy information with peace of mind without being misled by misinformation. Furthermore, in educational settings, it becomes possible to conduct lessons and learning based on reliable information. For example, by providing reliable information as teaching materials and references, the quality of education can be improved. In this way, the educational support system ensures that children can access trustworthy information with peace of mind.
[0029] The educational support system according to this embodiment comprises an analysis unit, an evaluation unit, a detection unit, and a provision unit. The analysis unit analyzes the content of news articles and websites. The analysis unit analyzes the content of news articles and websites using, for example, natural language processing technology. For example, the analysis unit uses morphological analysis to analyze the content of the article in detail. The analysis unit can also analyze the grammatical structure of the article using grammatical analysis. The analysis unit can also analyze the meaning of the article using semantic analysis. For example, the analysis unit uses morphological analysis to extract important information and keywords from the article. Grammatical analysis is used to analyze the grammatical structure of the article and understand the structure of sentences. Semantic analysis is used to analyze the meaning of the article and understand the content of the article. The evaluation unit evaluates the reliability of the content analyzed by the analysis unit.

Furthermore, the evaluation unit can objectively assess the reliability of an article using a fact-checking API. For example, the evaluation unit can use the fact-checking API to verify the accuracy of statistical data and citations mentioned in the article. The fact-checking API compares the article's content with existing reliable databases to determine its accuracy. This allows the evaluation unit to objectively assess the reliability of the article. The detection unit detects misinformation based on the results evaluated by the evaluation unit. For example, the detection unit automatically detects misinformation based on the results evaluated by the evaluation unit. For example, if an error is detected by the fact-checking API, the detection unit determines that the article is unreliable. The detection unit can also automatically filter out misinformation and unreliable content based on the results evaluated by the evaluation unit. For example, if an error is detected by the fact-checking API, the detection unit determines that the article is unreliable. This allows the detection unit to automatically filter out misinformation and unreliable content. The provision unit provides appropriate information based on the misinformation detected by the detection unit.The information provider can, for example, display only articles and websites that have been evaluated as highly reliable to children. For example, the information provider can provide reliable information through educational portal sites and applications. The information provider can also display only articles and websites that have been evaluated as highly reliable to children. The information provider can also display only articles and websites that have been evaluated as highly reliable to children. For example, the information provider can provide reliable information through educational portal sites and applications. This allows the educational support system according to the embodiment to allow children to access reliable information with peace of mind. Some or all of the processing described above in the information provider can be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the information provider can input articles and websites that have been evaluated as highly reliable into a generating AI and have the generating AI perform the task of providing appropriate information.
[0030] The analysis unit analyzes the content of news articles and websites. For example, it uses natural language processing techniques to analyze the content of news articles and websites. Specifically, it uses morphological analysis to analyze the content of articles in detail. Morphological analysis is a technique that breaks down text into words and morphemes, clarifying their meaning and role. This allows for the extraction of important information and keywords within the article. Furthermore, it can also analyze the grammatical structure of the article using grammatical analysis. Grammatical analysis is a technique that understands the structure of a text and clarifies the relationships between subjects, predicates, objects, etc. This allows for an accurate grasp of the overall meaning of the text. It can also analyze the meaning of the article using semantic analysis. Semantic analysis is a technique that understands the content of a text and grasps the underlying intentions and context. For example, by using morphological analysis to extract important information and keywords within the article, analyzing the grammatical structure using grammatical analysis, and analyzing the meaning of the article using semantic analysis, the content of the article can be understood in detail. This allows the analysis unit to analyze the content of news articles and websites in detail and provide information necessary for evaluating reliability and detecting misinformation.
[0031] The evaluation unit assesses the reliability of the content analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the evaluation unit evaluates the reliability of the analyzed content in conjunction with a fact-checking API. Specifically, it uses the fact-checking API to verify the accuracy of statistical data and citations mentioned in the article. The fact-checking API compares the information with existing reliable databases to determine the accuracy of the article's content. For example, the evaluation unit uses the fact-checking API to verify the accuracy of statistical data and citations mentioned in the article. The evaluation unit can also use the fact-checking API to assess the reliability of the article's content.

The fact-checking API compares the information with existing reliable databases to determine the accuracy of the article's content. This allows the evaluation unit to objectively evaluate the reliability of the article. Furthermore, the evaluation unit can comprehensively evaluate the reliability of the article based on the information provided by the analysis unit. For example, the reliability of an article can be evaluated by considering factors such as the source of the article, the author's credibility, and their past performance. This allows the evaluation unit to accurately assess the reliability of the content analyzed by the analysis unit, contributing to the detection of misinformation and the provision of appropriate information.
[0032] The detection unit detects misinformation based on the results evaluated by the evaluation unit. For example, the detection unit automatically detects misinformation based on the results evaluated by the evaluation unit. Specifically, if an error is detected by the fact-checking API, the article is judged to be unreliable. The detection unit can also automatically filter out misinformation and unreliable content based on the results evaluated by the evaluation unit. For example, if an error is detected by the fact-checking API, the article is judged to be unreliable. This allows the detection unit to automatically filter out misinformation and unreliable content. Furthermore, the detection unit can learn patterns and characteristics of misinformation based on the information provided by the evaluation unit, thereby improving the accuracy of future misinformation detection. For example, it can extract characteristics of misinformation based on data of misinformation detected in the past and utilize them to detect new misinformation. The detection unit can also improve the accuracy of misinformation detection using AI.

[0114] [Second Embodiment] Figure 3 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 210 according to the second embodiment.
[0115] As shown in Figure 3, the data processing system 210 includes a data processing device 12 and smart glasses 214. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.
[0116] 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.
[0117] The smart glasses 214 include a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. 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, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.
[0118] 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.
[0119] 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).
[0120] 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.

[0122] 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.
[0123] 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.
[0124] In the smart glasses 214, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60.

The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The smart glasses 214 also have a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.
[0125] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58.

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

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

[0146] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0147] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.
[0162] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the analysis unit, evaluation unit, detection unit, and provision unit, is implemented in at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the analysis unit is implemented by the processor 46 of the robot 414 and analyzes the content of news articles and websites using natural language processing technology. The evaluation unit is implemented by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and evaluates the reliability of the analyzed content in cooperation with a fact-checking API. The detection unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and automatically detects misinformation based on the evaluation results. The provision unit is implemented by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and displays only articles and websites that have been evaluated as highly reliable to children. The analysis unit can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the depth of the analysis based on the estimated emotions. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0163] 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.
[0164] 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.
[0165] 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.
[0166] 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.
[0167] 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.
[0168] 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."
[0169] 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.
[0170] 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.
[0171] 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.
[0172] 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.
[0173] 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.
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
