[0028] (Example of form 1) The ticket sales and resale system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system for solving problems related to the purchase and resale of tickets for live performances and sporting events. This system provides a personal sales platform with an easy-to-use UI / UX from the buyer's perspective. This platform acquires ticket information that the user may be interested in, the type of seat they are likely to purchase, and its price information from their past browsing and purchase history, and notifies them of the expected odds of obtaining the ticket and the start date of sales. The user is asked a Yes / No question about purchasing. If the user selects Yes, a system is built that automatically applies for the ticket while following the normal application flow using a generation AI. Next, a platform is provided that restricts transactions at fair prices on the resale site. This platform uses image and character recognition AI to find the face value from the ticket information registered on the site, and uses generation AI to prevent prices from being set higher than that price plus a 10% commission. In addition, a function to detect fraudulent ticket sales and counterfeit ticket sales is also built and implemented using generation AI. This system enables event tickets to reach those in demand, and realizes a market movement that is satisfactory to organizers, participants, or applicants. This allows ticket sales and resale systems to ensure that event tickets reach those who need them, resulting in a market dynamic that is satisfactory to organizers, participants, and applicants alike.
[0029] The ticket sales and resale system according to the embodiment comprises a sales unit, an acquisition unit, a notification unit, a question unit, and an application unit. The sales unit provides a personal sales platform with an easy-to-use UI / UX from the buyer's perspective. For example, the sales unit simplifies operation by providing an intuitive interface and minimizing the number of clicks. The sales unit can also display relevant ticket information based on the types and price ranges of tickets the user has previously purchased. The acquisition unit acquires ticket information that the user may be interested in, as well as seat types and their prices, from the past browsing and purchase history acquired by the sales unit. For example, the acquisition unit acquires relevant ticket information based on information about events the user has previously viewed. The acquisition unit can also analyze the user's purchase history and prioritize the acquisition of ticket information for specific artists or sports teams. The notification unit notifies the user of the expected multiplier and the start date of sales based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit. For example, the notification unit calculates the expected multiplier using past sales data and a demand forecasting model and notifies the user. The notification unit also notifies the user of the start date of sales, enabling the user to purchase tickets at the appropriate time. The questioning unit asks the user about their purchase using a Yes / No question format. For example, the questioning unit displays the user the question, "Do you want to buy this ticket?" and provides the option of Yes or No. The questioning unit can also guide the user to the next step based on their answer. If Yes is selected by the questioning unit, the application unit automatically completes the application process using a generation AI, following the normal application flow. For example, the application unit automatically inputs the user's information and completes the application procedure. The application unit can also use the generation AI to select the most suitable ticket based on the user's desired seat type and price range. As a result, the ticket sales and resale system according to this embodiment provides a personal sales platform with an easy-to-use UI / UX from the buyer's perspective, and improves user convenience by automating everything from ticket acquisition to application.
[0030] The sales department provides a personal sales platform with a user-friendly UI / UX designed from the buyer's perspective. For example, it simplifies operation by providing an intuitive interface and minimizing the number of clicks. Specifically, it uses visually clear icons and navigation menus to ensure users can navigate without confusion, even on their first visit. The sales department can also display relevant ticket information based on the types and price ranges of tickets a user has previously purchased, allowing them to easily find tickets that match their interests. Furthermore, the sales department analyzes user behavior history and displays personalized ticket recommendations. For example, users who frequently purchase tickets for a particular artist or sports team will be given priority in seeing new event information from that artist or team. The sales department also offers one-click purchase and auto-fill features to simplify the ticket purchase process, allowing users to quickly purchase tickets without cumbersome procedures. Finally, the sales department provides ticket management features, making it easy to manage purchase history, download tickets, and print them. In this way, the sales department provides a user-friendly and efficient ticket purchasing experience.
[0031] The acquisition unit retrieves ticket information likely to interest users, along with information on the types of seats they are likely to purchase and their prices, based on past browsing and purchase history acquired by the sales unit. For example, the acquisition unit retrieves relevant ticket information based on information about events the user has previously viewed. Specifically, it analyzes information such as the genre, artist, and sports team of events the user has previously viewed and prioritizes retrieving ticket information for similar events. The acquisition unit can also analyze the user's purchase history and prioritize retrieving ticket information for specific artists or sports teams. For example, if a user has purchased concert tickets for a particular artist multiple times in the past, it will prioritize retrieving and providing information about that artist's new concerts to the user. Furthermore, the acquisition unit can analyze the user's past purchase patterns and predict the types of seats and price ranges the user prefers. This allows for the efficient retrieval and provision of ticket information that is likely to interest the user. The acquisition unit updates this information in real time, providing users with the latest ticket information. The acquisition unit can also collaborate with external data sources to collect a wide range of ticket information. This allows the acquisition unit to provide optimal ticket information tailored to the user's interests and needs, thereby improving user satisfaction.
[0032] The notification unit notifies users of the expected ticket availability and sales start date based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit. For example, the notification unit calculates the expected availability using past sales data and demand forecasting models and notifies the user. Specifically, it analyzes past sales data to predict the sales rate at which tickets for a particular event or artist will sell out. It also uses demand forecasting models to calculate the expected availability, taking into account current market trends and user interest. This allows users to understand the difficulty of obtaining tickets in advance. Furthermore, the notification unit notifies users of the sales start date, enabling them to purchase tickets at the appropriate time. For example, it sends push notifications or email reminders as the sales start date for an event the user is interested in approaches. The notification unit also provides a function to automatically add the sales start date to the user's calendar app. This ensures that users do not forget the sales start date and can purchase tickets reliably. In addition, the notification unit can also provide real-time notifications of ticket sales status and inventory information. For example, it immediately notifies users when tickets are running low or when additional tickets are sold. This allows the notification system to provide users with timely and accurate information, helping them avoid missing out on ticket purchase opportunities.
[0033] The question section asks users about their purchase intentions using a Yes / No question format. For example, it might display a question like, "Do you want to buy this ticket?" and offer a Yes or No option. Specifically, when ticket information that the user is interested in is displayed, it confirms the user's intention to purchase through a pop-up window or notification message. The question section can also guide the user to the next step based on their answer. For example, if the user selects Yes, the next step is to proceed to a payment information input screen or a confirmation screen. On the other hand, if the user selects No, it displays other related ticket information or a confirmation message indicating that the purchase will be postponed. Furthermore, the question section can record the user's answer history and use it to predict future purchase intentions. For example, users who frequently answer Yes to a particular event or artist will be given priority in displaying similar event information. The question section can also provide personalized recommendations based on the user's answers. In this way, the question section can efficiently confirm the user's purchase intention and guide them to the appropriate next step, providing a smooth purchase experience.
[0034] If "Yes" is selected in the question section, the application section automatically completes the application process using a generating AI, following the normal application flow. For example, the application section automatically inputs user information and completes the application procedure. Specifically, it automatically retrieves personal and payment information previously entered by the user and inputs it into the necessary fields. The application section can also use the generating AI to select the most suitable ticket based on the user's desired seat type and price range. The generating AI analyzes the user's past purchase history and current interests to suggest the most suitable ticket. For example, if the user has previously preferred purchasing tickets in a specific price range, it will prioritize selecting tickets within that price range. The generating AI can also consider real-time inventory status to select the most suitable seat type. This allows users to purchase the most suitable ticket without any hassle. Furthermore, the application section displays the progress of the application procedure in real time, providing users with peace of mind. For example, it sends a confirmation message or email notification when the application is complete. The application section also has support functions to quickly respond in the event of any errors or problems. This allows the application process to provide users with a smooth and efficient application experience, significantly improving the convenience of ticket purchases.
[0035] The resale site includes a restriction section that limits transactions to fair prices. The restriction section uses image and character recognition AI to determine the face value from the ticket information registered on the site, and uses a generation AI to prevent prices from being set higher than that price plus a 10% commission. For example, the restriction section can analyze the ticket image to determine the face value. It can also read the ticket information using character recognition technology to confirm the face value. Furthermore, the restriction section uses a generation AI to prevent prices from being set higher than that price plus a 10% commission. For example, if the face value of a ticket is 5000 yen, prices higher than 5500 yen cannot be set. This ensures that transactions on the resale site are conducted at fair prices and prevents the sale of fraudulent or counterfeit tickets. Some or all of the above processing in the restriction section may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the restriction section can input ticket image data into a generation AI and have the generation AI determine the face value.
[0036] The restriction unit uses image and character recognition AI to determine the face value from the ticket information registered on the site, and uses a generation AI to prevent the price from exceeding that amount plus a 10% commission. For example, the restriction unit analyzes the ticket image to determine the face value. It can also read the ticket information using character recognition technology to confirm the face value. Furthermore, the restriction unit uses a generation AI to prevent the price from exceeding that amount plus a 10% commission. For example, if the face value of a ticket is 5000 yen, the price cannot be set above 5500 yen. This ensures fair pricing by preventing the price from exceeding that amount plus a 10% commission. Some or all of the above processing in the restriction unit may be performed using AI, or not. For example, the restriction unit can input ticket image data into a generation AI and have the generation AI determine the face value.
[0037] The restriction unit incorporates a function built and implemented by generating AI to detect fraudulent and counterfeit ticket sales. For example, the restriction unit can analyze ticket images and text information to detect fraudulent tickets. It can also analyze ticket transaction history to detect abnormal transaction patterns. Furthermore, the restriction unit can monitor ticket sales information in real time and immediately detect fraudulent transactions. This helps maintain the health of the resale market by detecting fraudulent and counterfeit ticket sales. Some or all of the above processing in the restriction unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the restriction unit can input ticket image data into the generating AI and have the generating AI perform fraudulent ticket detection.
[0038] The sales department can analyze users' past purchase history and automatically generate optimal sales strategies.

[0137] 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.
[0138] 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.
[0139] 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.
[0140] 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.
[0141] 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).
[0142] 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.
[0143] Figure 4 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart glasses 214. As shown in Figure 4, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing by the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.
[0144] 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.
[0145] 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.
[0146] In the smart glasses 214, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing 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 processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

[0147] 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.).
[0148] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 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.
[0149] 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.

[0168] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0169] 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.

[0183] 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.

[0184] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the sales unit, acquisition unit, notification unit, question unit, and application unit, is implemented by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the sales unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides the user with an intuitive interface. The acquisition unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and retrieves relevant ticket information from past browsing and purchase history. The notification unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and notifies the user of the expected multiplier and the start date of sales. The question unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and presents the user with Yes / No questions. The application unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and automatically makes applications using generating AI. The restriction unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and restricts transactions to fair prices. 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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.
[0190] 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."
[0191] 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.
[0192] 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.
[0193] 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.
[0194] 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.
[0195] 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.
[0196] 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.
[0197] 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.
[0198] 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.
[0199] 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.
[0200] 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.
[0201] 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.
