Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0028] (Example of form 1) The auction support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is an application aimed at expanding the user base of light users who do not regularly use auctions and contributing to sales by automating as much work as possible for users who do not regularly use auctions. The auction support system picks up items (such as coins and stamps) that have a different shape or content from the default item data available on the web. At this time, it describes the reason for the selection and, based on the content of that reason, automatically links with past auction results and price sites from around the world to display the estimated selling price (minimum price and average price). Next, the auction support system compares the item with the characteristic data (sales pitch) of auction exhibits and displays the estimated selling price (minimum price and average price) and the reason. If the user approves, the captured image can be processed and arranged by AI to make it easy to view, and then listed for auction as is. For example, the auction support system clarifies how the AI ​​determines the shape or content that differs from the default item. For example, it uses image analysis technology to analyze the shape and content of the item and compare it with the default item. Next, the auction support system also specifically describes how it links with auction results and price sites. For example, it uses an API to obtain data, and the AI ​​analyzes it to display the estimated selling price. Furthermore, the auction support system will also specify how the AI ​​processes images. For example, it will adjust the brightness and contrast of images to make them easier to view. The auction support system will have a collection unit, an analysis unit, an extraction unit, a display unit, and a processing unit, clearly defining the role of each element. The collection unit will collect data on the target object, and the analysis unit will analyze the collected data. The extraction unit will extract shapes and contents that differ from the default item based on the analysis results, and the display unit will display the estimated selling price. The processing unit will process the image to make it easier to view. The auction support system will also have an API integration unit and a database unit, clearly defining the relationships with each element. As a result, the auction support system will enable even inexperienced or beginner auction users to easily list items for auction, and is expected to expand the auction user base and increase sales.

The processing unit can also adjust the contrast of the image to make the details easier to understand. Furthermore, the processing unit can apply filters to the image to make it visually appealing. As a result, the auction support system according to this embodiment automates auction listings by collecting, analyzing, extracting, displaying, and processing data on the target items, thereby expanding the user base and contributing to sales.

[0030] The data collection unit collects data from the object. For example, the data collection unit can collect image data of the object. Specifically, it uses a camera to capture high-resolution images of the object and saves them as digital data. It is desirable that the image data be taken from multiple angles to clearly capture not only the overall image of the object, but also its detailed features and defects. The data collection unit can also collect text data from the object. For example, it can collect descriptions, specifications, and manufacturer information of the object as text data and save it in a database. Furthermore, the data collection unit can collect sensor data from the object. For example, it can acquire data in real time from temperature and humidity sensors attached to the object and use it for analysis. This allows the data collection unit to understand the physical state and environmental conditions of the object in detail. The collected data is centrally stored in a central database and made accessible to the analysis unit and other departments. The frequency and accuracy of data collection are adjusted according to the characteristics of the object and the requirements of the auction. For example, in the case of expensive works of art or antiques, higher-precision image data and detailed sensor data may be required. This allows the data collection unit to efficiently collect diverse data from the object and improve the overall performance of the system.

[0031] The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the shape and content of an object using image analysis technology. Specifically, it uses image recognition algorithms to analyze the shape, color, and texture of an object and compare them with a default item. This allows for the automatic detection of the object's features and defects. The analysis unit can also analyze the description of an object using text analysis technology. It uses natural language processing technology to analyze the content of the description and extract important keywords and phrases. Furthermore, the analysis unit can analyze sensor data. For example, it can analyze fluctuations in temperature and humidity to evaluate the object's storage condition and environmental conditions. This allows the analysis unit to analyze the collected data from multiple angles and gain a detailed understanding of the object's state and characteristics. In addition, the analysis unit can utilize historical data and statistical information to analyze long-term trends and patterns. For example, it can predict the popularity and price trends of a specific category or brand based on past auction data. It can also use anomaly detection algorithms to detect unusual patterns and abnormal data early and issue warnings. This allows the analysis unit to not only grasp the situation in real time, but also to handle long-term risk management and anomaly detection, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the entire system.

[0032] The extraction unit extracts shapes and contents that differ from the default product based on data analyzed by the analysis unit. Specifically, it uses image analysis technology to extract differences in the shape of the object compared to the default product. For example, it analyzes images of the object to identify differences in shape, color, and texture. The extraction unit can also use text analysis technology to extract differences in the description of the object compared to the default product. It uses natural language processing technology to analyze the content of the description and clarify the differences from the default product. Furthermore, the extraction unit can use sensor data to extract differences in the state of the object compared to the default product. For example, it analyzes temperature and humidity data to identify differences in storage conditions and environmental conditions. This allows the extraction unit to grasp the characteristics and state of the object in detail and clearly distinguish it from the default product. In addition, the extraction unit can evaluate the value and rarity of the object based on the extracted data. For example, if certain characteristics or conditions are highly valued in the market, it can calculate the value of the object based on that information. The extraction unit can also share the extracted data with other systems and departments and utilize it for auction strategies and pricing. This allows the extraction unit to provide detailed information about the object, contributing to the success of the auction.

[0033] The display unit shows the estimated selling price based on the data extracted by the extraction unit. Specifically, it can display the estimated selling price in conjunction with past auction results and price websites. For example, it can refer to past auction data and calculate the estimated selling price based on the selling prices of similar items. It can also refer to price website data and display the minimum and average prices. Furthermore, the display unit can also display sales pitches based on the extracted data. For example, it can automatically generate and display sales pitches that emphasize the features and rarity of the item. This allows the display unit to effectively communicate the value of the item to auction participants. In addition, the display unit can continuously revise the estimated selling price and sales pitches based on data that is updated in real time. For example, it can immediately update the display content when new auction data or market trends are reflected. The display unit also makes it easy for auction participants to check information through the user interface. For example, it can display price trends and selling price changes using visually easy-to-understand graphs and charts. This allows the display unit to provide auction participants with the latest information and support the success of the auction.

[0034] The processing unit processes images based on the data displayed by the display unit. Specifically, it can adjust the brightness and contrast of images. For example, it can adjust the brightness to make the image easier to view. It can also adjust the contrast to make the image more detailed. Furthermore, the processing unit can apply filters to images. For example, it can apply a specific filter to make the image visually appealing. The processing unit can also adjust the size of images. For example, it can optimize the image size to meet the display requirements of auction sites. This allows the processing unit to effectively process images of objects and provide attractive visuals to auction participants. In addition, the processing unit saves the image processing history and can revert to the original image if necessary. For example, if excessive processing has been performed, it can revert to the original image and reprocess it. The processing unit also has a function to process multiple images in batches, allowing it to efficiently process a large number of images. This allows the processing unit to quickly and efficiently prepare items for auction and improve the overall system performance.

For example, if the user is relaxed, detailed listing criteria may be applied. If the user is in a hurry, concise listing criteria may be applied. Furthermore, if the user is excited, visually appealing listing criteria may be applied. In this way, the auction support system can provide users with appropriate auction results by adjusting the listing criteria based on their emotions.

[0123] The auction support system can estimate the user's emotions and adjust the order in which listing results are displayed based on those emotions. For example, if the user is relaxed, detailed listing results will be prioritized. If the user is in a hurry, concise listing results will be prioritized. Furthermore, if the user is excited, visually appealing listing results will be prioritized. In this way, the auction support system can provide a user-friendly display by adjusting the order in which listing results are displayed based on the user's emotions.

[0124] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0125] Step 1: The collection unit collects data from the object. The collection unit can collect, for example, image data, text data, and sensor data from the object. Specifically, the collection unit takes an image of the object with a camera and saves it as image data. It can also collect a description of the object as text data, and further collect sensor data such as the object's temperature and humidity. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit. The analysis unit can analyze the shape and content of the object using image analysis technology and analyze the description of the object using text analysis technology. Furthermore, it can also analyze sensor data and evaluate the state of the object. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the shape of the object using image analysis technology and compare it with a default product. It can also analyze the description of the object using text analysis technology and compare it with a default product. Furthermore, it can analyze sensor data and evaluate the state of the object. Step 3: The extraction unit extracts shapes and contents that differ from the default product based on the data analyzed by the analysis unit. The extraction unit can use image analysis technology to extract shapes that differ from the default product, and text analysis technology to extract contents that differ from the default product. Furthermore, it can also use sensor data to extract states that differ from the default product. For example, the extraction unit can use image analysis technology to extract that the shape of the object differs from the default product, and use text analysis technology to extract that the description of the object differs from the default product. Furthermore, it can also use sensor data to extract that the state of the object differs from the default product. Step 4: The display unit displays the estimated selling price based on the data extracted by the extraction unit. The display unit can display the estimated selling price in conjunction with past auction results and price comparison websites, and can also display the minimum price and average price. Furthermore, it can also display sales pitches based on the extracted data. For example, the display unit refers to past auction results and displays the estimated selling price. It can also refer to data from price comparison websites and display the minimum price and average price. Furthermore, it can also display sales pitches based on the extracted data. Step 5: The processing unit processes the image based on the data displayed by the display unit. The processing unit can adjust the brightness and contrast of the image, apply filters to the image, and adjust the image size. For example, the processing unit can adjust the brightness of the image to make it easier to view. It can also adjust the contrast of the image to make the details easier to see. Furthermore, it can apply filters to the image to make it visually appealing.

In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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.

[0178] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, analysis unit, extraction unit, display unit, and processing 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 images of objects using the camera 42 of the robot 414 and analyzes them by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12. The analysis unit is implemented, for example, by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the collected data. The extraction unit is implemented, for example, by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and extracts shapes and contents that differ from the default product based on the analysis results. The display unit is implemented, for example, by the display of the robot 414 and displays the expected selling price. The processing unit is implemented, for example, by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and processes the images to make them easier to view. 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] 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.

[0181] 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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.

[0184] 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."

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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.

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.

[0191] 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.

[0192] 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.

[0193] 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.

[0194] 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.
