[0027] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device (e.g., a generation server) 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 having the data generation model 58. The data processing device 12 may also be a server device or a terminal device owned by a user (e.g., a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.). 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 training system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system for accurately understanding the intent of the questioner and responding appropriately in interviews and communication. This training system allows the user to view a video of themselves and generates a video that includes advice comments generated by AI. Furthermore, the AI recommends helpful videos and encourages the learner to watch them. The recommended videos can also be generated with the faces and voices of the people in them replaced with those of the learner themselves, allowing for a realistic understanding of the educational content. This system simulates realistic situations and trains the learner in understanding and responding to questions through its unique question generation and evaluation mechanism. Feedback is provided in both text and video, allowing the learner to objectively understand their own areas for improvement by watching a video of themselves. This enables the learner to hone their skills in a way that is relevant to the real world and deepen their understanding of questions through daily training. For example, the system allows the user to view a video of themselves. For example, an interview scene is recorded, and the AI analyzes the video to generate advice comments. Next, the user is provided with a video that includes the generated advice comments. This allows the user to objectively understand their own areas for improvement. Furthermore, the AI recommends helpful videos and encourages the learner to watch them. For example, the AI selects and provides videos to improve communication skills to learners. The recommended videos can even be generated with the learner's own face and voice, allowing for a more realistic understanding of the educational content. This system enables users to train their understanding and response to questions while simulating real-world situations. For instance, a user can answer a question generated by the AI and receive video feedback on their response. This allows users to hone their skills in a real-world context and deepen their understanding of questions through daily training. The training system allows users to train their understanding and response to questions by providing videos that show them their own image and include AI-generated advice.
[0029] The training system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, a generation unit, and a provision unit. The reception unit receives information for viewing a video. The reception unit can, for example, receive user input. The reception unit can also receive sensor information. For example, the reception unit receives information for viewing a video based on information entered by the user. The generation unit generates advice based on the information received by the reception unit. The generation unit can, for example, generate advice using an AI algorithm. The generation unit can also generate advice by referring to a database. For example, the generation unit analyzes the user's input information using an AI algorithm and generates appropriate advice. The provision unit provides a video containing the advice generated by the generation unit. The provision unit can, for example, provide the video using streaming technology. The provision unit can also provide the video in download format. For example, the provision unit streams the video containing the generated advice to the user. As a result, the training system allows the user to train in understanding and responding to questions by viewing a video of themselves and being provided with a video containing advice generated by AI.
[0030] The reception desk receives information for viewing videos. Specifically, when a user accesses the training system and enters information about the video they want to watch, the reception desk receives that information. For example, a user can select specific training content or themes and send that selection information to the reception desk. The reception desk can also receive sensor information. For example, if a user is wearing a wearable device, it can receive data such as heart rate and exercise volume from that device. This allows the reception desk to collect information for video viewing that is tailored to the user's current state and needs. Furthermore, the reception desk can refer to the user's past viewing and training history to receive more personalized information. For example, it can suggest the most suitable videos to the user based on the videos and training content they have watched in the past. This allows the reception desk to efficiently receive information that meets the user's needs and enhance the overall effectiveness of the training system.
[0031] The generation unit generates advice based on the information received by the reception unit. Specifically, it uses an AI algorithm to analyze the user's input information and generate appropriate advice. For example, based on the training goals and current status entered by the user, the AI suggests the optimal training method and points to note. The generation unit can also generate advice by referring to a database. The database stores past training data and expert advice, and uses this to generate specific advice for the user. For example, it can provide detailed explanations of specific training methods or points to avoid common mistakes. Furthermore, the generation unit can analyze the user's sensor information in real time and generate appropriate advice on the spot. For example, if the user's heart rate exceeds a certain range, it will generate advice prompting them to take a break. In this way, the generation unit can provide highly accurate advice tailored to the user's needs and condition, maximizing the effectiveness of training.
[0032] The service provider provides videos containing advice generated by the generation unit. Specifically, videos can be provided using streaming technology. For example, when a user accesses the training system, videos containing generated advice are streamed in real time. The service provider can also provide videos in downloadable format. Users can download videos as needed and watch them offline. Furthermore, the service provider can collect video viewing history and feedback to improve future training. For example, it can record how users reacted to specific advice and adjust the advice for the next session based on that information. This allows the service provider to always provide users with the latest and most optimal training videos, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of their training. In addition, the service provider supports multiple devices and platforms, allowing users to watch videos on various devices such as smartphones, tablets, and PCs. This improves user convenience and promotes the use of the training system.
[0033] The training system includes a replacement unit that replaces the faces and voices of the characters. The replacement unit can, for example, replace the characters' faces using deepfake technology. It can also replace the characters' voices using speech synthesis technology. For instance, the replacement unit can use deepfake technology to replace the characters' faces with the user's own face. This allows for a more realistic understanding of the educational content by replacing the characters' faces and voices with those of the user.
[0034] The training system includes a question generation unit that generates questions. The question generation unit can generate questions using, for example, natural language processing techniques. It can also generate questions by referring to a database. For instance, the question generation unit analyzes user input using natural language processing techniques and generates appropriate questions. This allows for training in question understanding and response through a unique question generation mechanism.
[0035] The training system includes a feedback unit that provides feedback. The feedback unit can provide feedback in, for example, text format. It can also provide feedback in video format. For example, the feedback unit provides feedback to the user in text format. This allows users to objectively understand their own areas for improvement by providing feedback in both text and video formats.
[0036] The generation unit can record the interview scene, analyze the video, and generate advice comments. For example, the generation unit records the interview scene using a recording device. The generation unit then analyzes the recorded video using an analysis algorithm and generates advice comments. For example, the generation unit records the interview scene using a recording device, analyzes the video, and generates advice comments. This allows for the provision of specific advice by analyzing the interview scene.
[0037] The service provider can provide users with videos containing generated advice comments. The service provider can provide videos using, for example, a distribution method. Alternatively, the service provider can provide videos through a user interface. For example, the service provider can distribute videos containing generated advice comments to users. By providing videos containing generated advice comments, users can more easily understand their areas for improvement.
[0038] The reception desk can analyze a user's past viewing history and automatically select the most suitable video. For example, the reception desk can use an analysis algorithm to analyze a user's past viewing history. It can also select the most suitable video using selection criteria.

This allows the system to provide users with the most suitable videos by analyzing their past viewing history.
[0039] The reception desk can filter videos based on the user's current learning progress. For example, the reception desk can track the user's current learning progress using a progress tracking method. It can also filter videos using filtering criteria. For instance, the reception desk can analyze the user's current learning progress and prioritize suggesting unwatched videos. This allows for the provision of appropriate videos by filtering based on learning progress.
[0040] The reception desk can prioritize providing highly relevant videos to users when they are watching videos, taking into account their geographical location. For example, the reception desk can obtain the user's geographical location using a location information acquisition method. Furthermore, the reception desk can provide highly relevant videos using relevance evaluation criteria. For instance, if a user is in a specific region, the reception desk will prioritize suggesting videos related to that region. This allows for the provision of highly relevant videos by considering geographical location.
[0041] The reception desk can analyze a user's social media activity while they are watching a video and provide them with relevant videos. For example, the reception desk can use an analysis algorithm to analyze a user's social media activity. It can also provide relevant videos using relevance evaluation criteria. For instance, the reception desk can suggest relevant videos based on what the user has shared on social media. In this way, relevant videos can be provided by analyzing social media activity.
[0042] The generation unit can generate optimal advice by referring to the user's past response history when generating advice. For example, the generation unit can refer to the user's past response history using a history referencing method. Alternatively, the generation unit can generate optimal advice using an advice generation algorithm. For example, the generation unit can generate relevant advice based on advice the user has received in the past. This allows the system to provide optimal advice by referring to past response history.
[0043] The generation unit can adjust the level of detail of advice based on the user's current learning progress when generating advice. For example, the generation unit can determine the user's current learning progress using a progress tracking method. The generation unit can also adjust the level of detail of advice using a level of detail adjustment criterion. For example, if the user's learning progress is advanced, the generation unit will generate detailed advice. This allows for the provision of appropriate advice by adjusting the level of detail based on learning progress.
[0044] The generation unit can determine the priority of advice based on the user's submission timing when generating advice. For example, the generation unit can determine the user's submission timing using a submission timing tracking method. The generation unit can also determine the priority of advice using priority determination criteria. For example, if a user submits early, the generation unit will prioritize generating detailed advice. This allows for timely advice delivery by prioritizing advice based on submission timing.
[0045] The generation unit can adjust the order of advice based on the user's relevance when generating advice. For example, the generation unit can evaluate the user's relevance using relevance evaluation criteria. It can also adjust the order of advice using an ordering method. For example, the generation unit can prioritize generating advice that is most relevant to the user's current challenges. This allows for the provision of effective advice by adjusting the order of advice based on relevance.
[0046] The service provider can select the optimal delivery method when providing videos by referring to the user's past viewing history. For example, the service provider can refer to the user's past viewing history using a history referencing method. Alternatively, the service provider can select the optimal delivery method using delivery method selection criteria. For example, the service provider can provide videos in a similar format to videos the user has previously viewed. This allows the service provider to select the optimal delivery method by referring to past viewing history.
[0047] The service provider can customize the delivery method based on the user's current learning progress when providing videos. For example, the service provider can use a progress tracking method to understand the user's current learning progress. Furthermore, the service provider can customize the delivery method using customization criteria. For example, if the user's learning progress is advanced, the service provider can provide a more detailed video. This allows for the provision of appropriate videos by customizing the delivery method based on learning progress.
[0048] The service provider can select the optimal delivery method when providing videos, taking into account the user's geographical location information. For example, the service provider can obtain the user's geographical location information using a location information acquisition method. Alternatively, the service provider can select the optimal delivery method using delivery method selection criteria. For example, if the user is in a specific region, the service provider can prioritize providing videos related to that region. This allows for the selection of the optimal delivery method by considering geographical location information.
[0049] The service provider can analyze users' social media activity and propose delivery methods when providing videos. For example, the service provider can analyze users' social media activity using an analysis algorithm. Alternatively, the service provider can propose delivery methods using suggested criteria. For example, the service provider can provide relevant videos based on content shared by users on social media. This allows for the provision of relevant videos by analyzing social media activity.
[0050] The replacement unit can select the optimal replacement method when replacing the faces and voices of characters by referring to the user's past viewing history. For example, the replacement unit can refer to the user's past viewing history using a history referencing method. Alternatively, the replacement unit can select the optimal replacement method using replacement method selection criteria.

This can increase user motivation and encourage continuous learning.
[0061] The training system can monitor the user's health status and provide training tailored to that status. For example, it can acquire the user's heart rate and sleep data to assess their health. If the user is fatigued, it can suggest lighter training. Conversely, if the user is energetic, it can offer more challenging training. Furthermore, if the user sets a specific health goal, the system can create a training plan tailored to that goal. This allows for effective learning by providing optimal training content based on the user's health status.
[0062] The training system can create individualized learning plans based on the user's learning history. For example, it can analyze past training data to identify the user's strengths and weaknesses. It can then suggest training to further develop their strengths and provide training to overcome their weaknesses. Furthermore, it can adjust the frequency and content of training according to the user's learning pace. This enables effective learning by providing an optimal learning plan based on the user's learning history.
[0063] The training system can include an environment adjustment unit to optimize the user's learning environment. For example, it can detect the noise level around the user and suggest a quiet learning environment. It can also adjust the brightness of the lighting to provide an eye-friendly environment. Furthermore, it can monitor temperature and humidity to maintain a comfortable learning environment. By optimizing the user's learning environment in this way, effective learning becomes possible.
[0064] The training system can provide customizable training modules tailored to the user's learning goals. For example, if a user wants to acquire a specific skill, a training module focused on that skill can be provided. If a user wants to achieve results in a short period, an intensive training module can be offered. Furthermore, if a user wants to create a long-term learning plan, a progressively advancing training module can be provided. This allows for effective learning by providing the optimal training module for each user's learning objectives.
[0065] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.
[0066] Step 1: The reception unit receives information for viewing the video. The reception unit can, for example, receive user input. It can also receive sensor information. Specifically, it receives information for viewing the video based on the information entered by the user.

[0127] 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.
[0128] 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 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.
[0130] 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.
[0131] 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).
[0132] 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 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.
[0135] 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.
[0136] In the smart glasses 214, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60.

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.

[0158] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0159] 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.

[0173] 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.
[0174] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, generation unit, provision unit, replacement unit, question generation unit, and feedback unit, is implemented in at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the reception unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and receives user input information. The generation unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and generates advice using an AI algorithm. The provision unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and streams a video containing the generated advice. The replacement unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and replaces the faces of characters with the user's own face using deepfake technology. The question generation unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and generates questions using natural language processing technology. The feedback unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and provides feedback in text and video formats. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above and can be modified in various ways.
[0175] 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.
[0176] 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.
[0177] 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.
[0178] 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.
[0179] 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.
[0180] 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."
[0181] 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.
[0182] 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.
[0183] 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.
[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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.
[0190] 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.
[0191] 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.
