[0028] (Example of form 1) The health support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that supports the creation of a healthy body effectively and effortlessly by understanding the individual user's body, exercise, and diet, and supplementing the necessary nutrients as supplements. The health support system collects data on the user's body, exercise, and diet, and the collected data is analyzed by AI to identify the nutrients the user needs. Furthermore, it provides customized supplements based on the identified nutrients. Through this mechanism, the user can effectively take in the nutrients they need, and the system can support the creation of a healthy body. For example, the health support system collects data on the user's body, exercise, and diet. At this time, detailed data such as the user's height, weight, age, gender, exercise habits, and dietary content is collected. For example, data such as what kind of meals the user eats every day and how much exercise they do is collected. This allows the system to understand the user's health status. Next, the health support system's AI analyzes the collected data. Based on the collected data, the AI ​​identifies the nutrients the user needs. For example, it can identify nutrients that are lacking from the user's diet and suggest supplements to compensate for those nutrients. This allows the user to effectively take in the nutrients they need. Furthermore, the health support system provides customized supplements based on identified nutrients. Specifically, it individually formulates and provides supplements containing the nutrients needed by the user. For example, if a user is deficient in vitamin D, a supplement containing vitamin D will be provided. In this way, users can effectively take in the nutrients they need. This mechanism allows users to support the creation of a healthy body effectively, without hassle or burden. Users can easily understand the nutrients they need and take supplements to compensate for them. This enables them to maintain a healthy body and live a healthy life in the era of 100-year lifespans. For example, if a user is deficient in vitamin C in their daily diet, the AI ​​will analyze that data and suggest a supplement containing vitamin C. By taking that supplement, the user can effectively replenish their vitamin C intake.Furthermore, if a user is not getting enough exercise, the AI ​​can analyze that data and provide advice to encourage exercise. This helps users build a healthy body. The health support system can effectively support the creation of a healthy body by identifying the necessary nutrients based on the user's body, exercise, and diet, and providing customized supplements.

[0029] The health support system according to this embodiment comprises a data collection unit, an analysis unit, and a provision unit.

By setting health goals that are tailored to the user's emotions, more effective health support becomes possible.

[0096] A health support system can provide different support plans tailored to the user's lifestyle. For example, if a user is a night owl, it can suggest exercise programs and meal plans suitable for nighttime. If a user has an exercise habit, it can also provide a support plan based on exercise data. Furthermore, if a user has specific dietary restrictions, it can provide a support plan that accommodates those restrictions. By providing support plans that match the user's lifestyle, more effective health support becomes possible.

[0097] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 2.

[0098] Step 1: The data collection unit collects data about the user's body, exercise, and diet. For example, it collects detailed data such as the user's height, weight, age, gender, exercise habits, and diet. The data collection unit can collect data such as what the user eats each day and how much exercise they do. The data collection unit can also collect data periodically to understand the user's health status. Step 2: The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the collection unit to identify the nutrients the user needs. For example, it can use AI to analyze the collected data, identify nutrients that are lacking in the user's diet, and suggest supplements to make up for those deficiencies. It can also analyze the user's exercise habits and provide advice to address any lack of exercise. Step 3: The supply unit provides customized supplements based on the nutrients identified by the analysis unit. For example, it individually formulates and provides supplements containing the nutrients needed by the user. If the user is deficient in vitamin D, a supplement containing vitamin D can be provided. It is also possible to provide supplements containing the nutrients needed by the user on a regular basis.

[0099] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B 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 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0100] Data generation model 58 is a form of so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (registered trademark) (Internet search).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> Examples of generative AI include text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI.

The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVMs), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI ​​may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each of the above parts is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI ​​in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example.Furthermore, processing performed by AI, including generative AI, may be replaced with rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced with processing performed by AI, including generative AI.

For example, the data collection unit collects data on the user's body, exercise, and diet using the camera 42 and microphone 38B of the smart device 14. The analysis unit is implemented in the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, where AI analyzes the collected data to identify the nutrients the user needs.

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.

[0151] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the data collection unit, analysis unit, and supply unit, is implemented, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the data collection unit collects data on the user's body, exercise, and diet using the camera 42 and microphone 238 of the robot 414. The analysis unit is implemented, for example, by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, where AI analyzes the collected data to identify the nutrients the user needs. The supply unit is implemented, for example, by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12, and provides customized supplements based on the identified nutrients. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above, and various modifications are possible.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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."

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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.

[0166] 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.

[0167] 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.

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.
