The visualization unit provides the classified opinions in visual formats such as graphs and charts, for example. The visualization unit visualizes opinions using bar graphs, for example. The visualization unit visualizes opinions using pie charts, for example. The visualization unit visualizes opinions using heatmaps, for example. As a result, the survey analysis system according to this embodiment can efficiently analyze comments, summarize them, create reports, perform sentiment analysis, and visualize them.
[0030] The analysis unit analyzes comments. For example, the analysis unit analyzes the free-response section of a survey and extracts key points and opinions. The analysis unit analyzes comments using text mining techniques, for example. Specifically, it uses text mining techniques to extract frequently occurring words and phrases in comments and analyzes their frequency of appearance to identify main themes and topics. Furthermore, it analyzes comments using natural language processing techniques. By using natural language processing techniques, it is possible to understand the context and meaning of comments and perform more accurate analysis. For example, by performing morphological analysis to identify the part of speech of each word and analyzing the sentence structure, it is possible to grasp the intent and emotion of the comments. It also analyzes comments using sentiment analysis techniques. By using sentiment analysis techniques, it captures the emotional nuances of comments and classifies them into positive, negative, and neutral emotions. This allows the analysis unit to analyze the content of comments from multiple angles and extract key points and opinions. Furthermore, the analysis unit can also perform comment classification and clustering using machine learning algorithms. For example, supervised learning is used to train a model based on pre-labeled data and automatically classify new comments. Alternatively, unsupervised learning is used to cluster comments based on their similarity, grouping comments with common themes or topics. This allows the analysis unit to improve the accuracy of comment analysis and efficiently extract key points and opinions.
[0031] The summarization unit performs summaries based on comments analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the summarization unit summarizes extracted feedback and compiles it into a concise report. Specifically, it uses text generation AI for summarization. The text generation AI utilizes natural language processing technology to extract important information from long comments and generate a concise summary. For example, the generation AI extracts the main points and opinions of a comment and integrates them to generate a summary. It also uses a summarization algorithm. The summarization algorithm evaluates the importance of the comments, extracts the important parts, and generates a summary. For example, it uses TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) to identify important words and phrases in the comments and generates a summary based on them. Furthermore, it uses natural language processing technology for summarization. By using natural language processing technology, it is possible to understand the context and meaning of the comments and generate more accurate summaries. For example, it analyzes the structure of sentences, extracts the main points, and generates a summary. As a result, the summarization unit can efficiently summarize the analyzed comments and compile them into a concise report. Furthermore, the summarization unit can evaluate the quality of the generated summaries and make corrections as needed. For example, it can check the consistency and grammatical accuracy of the summaries and automatically correct them if necessary. This allows the summarization unit to generate high-quality summaries and improve the efficiency of report creation.
[0032] The reporting unit compiles the feedback summarized by the summarizing unit into a report. For example, the reporting unit compiles the summarized feedback into a text report. Specifically, it organizes the summarized feedback and compiles it into a text report in an easy-to-read format. For example, it categorizes each piece of feedback and highlights important points to make it easy for the reader to understand. It also compiles the summarized feedback into a graph report. Graph reports visually represent the content of the feedback, allowing for an intuitive understanding of data trends and patterns. For example, bar graphs and pie charts are used to show the proportion and frequency of feedback in each category. Furthermore, the summarized feedback is compiled into a dashboard. A dashboard consolidates multiple graphs and charts onto a single screen and updates the data in real time, allowing for an at-a-glance understanding of the feedback situation. For example, it includes line graphs showing feedback trends and fluctuations, and numerical displays showing important indicators. This allows the reporting unit to compile the summarized feedback into reports in various formats, making it easy for the reader to understand. In addition, the reporting unit can automatically update the report content to reflect the latest feedback. For example, if new feedback is added, the reporting department automatically updates the report to provide the latest information. This allows the reporting department to always provide reports based on the most up-to-date information, supporting quick and appropriate decision-making.
[0033] The Sentiment Analysis Department performs sentiment analysis based on reports compiled by the Reporting Department. For example, the Sentiment Analysis Department analyzes the sentiment of each comment and classifies them into positive, negative, or neutral opinions. Specifically, it analyzes sentiment using sentiment scores. Sentiment scores quantify the emotional intensity of each comment and classify them as positive, negative, or neutral. For example, positive comments are given high scores, and negative comments are given low scores. It also analyzes sentiment using keyword frequency. By analyzing keyword frequency, it identifies emotional words and phrases within the comments and classifies the sentiment based on their frequency. For example, comments that frequently use positive keywords such as "good" and "great" are classified as positive opinions. Furthermore, it analyzes sentiment using natural language processing techniques. By using natural language processing techniques, it is possible to understand the context and meaning of comments and perform more accurate sentiment analysis. For example, by analyzing the sentence structure and capturing emotional nuances, the sentiment of the comments can be accurately classified. As a result, the Sentiment Analysis Department can analyze the sentiment of each comment from multiple angles based on the reports and classify them into positive, negative, or neutral opinions. Furthermore, the sentiment analysis department can also evaluate the overall emotional trend of the feedback based on the results of the sentiment analysis. For example, it can calculate the proportion of positive and negative opinions among all comments to show the overall emotional trend of the feedback. This allows the sentiment analysis department to grasp the emotional aspects of the feedback and propose appropriate responses and improvement measures.
[0034] The visualization unit visualizes the opinions classified by the sentiment analysis unit. The visualization unit provides the classified opinions in visual formats such as graphs and charts. Specifically, it visualizes opinions using bar graphs. Bar graphs are suitable for showing the proportion and frequency of opinions in each category, allowing for an intuitive understanding of the distribution of positive, negative, and neutral opinions. It also visualizes opinions using pie charts. Pie charts are suitable for showing the proportion of each category of opinion within the whole, allowing for an at-a-glance understanding of the overall sentiment trend of the feedback. Furthermore, it visualizes opinions using heatmaps. Heatmaps visually indicate areas where specific opinions or emotions are concentrated by representing the density and intensity of data with color. For example, by highlighting areas where specific keywords or phrases appear frequently, important opinions and emotions can be intuitively grasped. This allows the visualization unit to visualize the opinions classified by the sentiment analysis unit in diverse formats, enabling an intuitive understanding of data trends and patterns. Furthermore, the visualization unit can also provide the visualized data in an interactive format. For example, the system provides a feature that allows users to click on graphs and charts to display detailed data and related comments. This enables the visualization unit to allow users to delve deeper into the data for analysis and obtain more detailed information. This allows the visualization unit to effectively visualize the results of sentiment analysis and facilitate understanding of the 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.

[0172] 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.
[0173] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the analysis unit, summarization unit, reporting unit, sentiment analysis unit, and visualization 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 free comment portion of the questionnaire, extracting key points and opinions. The summarization unit is implemented by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and summarizes the extracted feedback, compiling it into a concise report. The reporting unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and compiles the summarized feedback into a text report or graph report. The sentiment analysis unit is implemented by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the sentiment of each comment, classifying it into positive, negative, or neutral opinions. The visualization unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides the classified opinions in a visual format such as a graph or chart. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0174] 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.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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."
[0180] 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.
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
