Also, in this specification, when expressing three or more matters connected by "and / or", the same concept as "A and / or B" is applied.

[0016] [First Embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. Also, the database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0019] The smart device 14 comprises a computer 36, a receiving device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. The computer 36 comprises a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The receiving device 38, output device 40, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0020] The reception device 38 is equipped with a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and accepts user input. The touch panel 38A accepts user input via touch by detecting contact with an object (e.g., a pen or finger). The microphone 38B accepts user input via voice by detecting the user's voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and microphone 38B to the data processing unit 12.

[0022] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various types of information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54.

[0023] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.

[0024] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" related to the technology of this disclosure. The processor 28 reads the 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 operating as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0025] 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.

[0026] In the smart device 14, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The specific processing program 60 is used in conjunction with the specific processing program 56 by the data processing system 10. 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 smart device 14 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[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 system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that evaluates the originality and value of ideas in a generative AI contest and promotes the exchange of opinions among proposers. This system accumulates a collection of ideas from past generative AI contests as knowledge, and proposers input their own ideas, which the generative AI then compares with past ideas to evaluate their originality and value. If an idea lacks originality, the generative AI proposes an idea with added unique features. Furthermore, for useful ideas, the system selects other proposers with similar ideas and holds an exchange of opinions meeting with these proposers. This mechanism gives proposers the opportunity to refine their ideas. For example, a collection of ideas from past generative AI contests is accumulated as knowledge. At this time, detailed information on each idea is stored in a database so that the generative AI can access it. This includes, for example, an overview of the idea, information on the proposer, and evaluation results. Next, the proposer inputs their own idea. The proposer inputs an overview and details of their idea and sends it to the generative AI. The generative AI analyzes the input idea and compares it with past ideas. The generative AI evaluates the originality and value by comparing it with past ideas. For example, it evaluates similarity and novelty numerically and provides feedback to the proposer. If an idea lacks originality, the generative AI will suggest ideas that add new uniqueness. For example, it may add new elements to the proposer's idea or suggest an approach from a different perspective. It will also select other idea proposers with similar ideas for useful ideas. The generative AI analyzes information on past ideas and proposers to identify proposers with similar interests. For example, it may select proposers who are interested in the same field or theme. It will then hold an exchange of ideas meeting with the proposers. The generative AI will send invitations to the selected proposers to the exchange of ideas meeting, providing them with an opportunity to refine their ideas with each other. For example, the exchange of ideas may take place in the form of an online meeting or workshop. This system allows proposers to have the opportunity to refine their ideas. Through the exchange of ideas among proposers, new perspectives and ideas are generated, making it possible to propose more original and valuable ideas.Furthermore, the evaluation and suggestions provided by the generating AI allow proposers to understand the strengths and weaknesses of their ideas and identify areas for improvement. This enables the system to efficiently evaluate proposers' ideas, add uniqueness, and facilitate idea refinement through discussion sessions.

[0029] The system according to this embodiment comprises a collection unit, a reception unit, an evaluation unit, a proposal unit, and a coordination unit. The collection unit stores past ideas as knowledge. For example, the collection unit stores a collection of ideas from past generation AI contests in a database so that the generation AI can access it. The reception unit receives input from proposers. For example, the reception unit receives input from proposers, including an outline and details of their ideas, and sends them to the generation AI. The evaluation unit evaluates the ideas received by the reception unit by comparing them with past ideas. For example, the evaluation unit analyzes the input ideas using the generation AI and evaluates their originality and value by comparing them with past ideas. The proposal unit proposes new ideas with added originality based on the ideas evaluated by the evaluation unit. For example, the proposal unit suggests that the generation AI add new elements to the proposer's idea or propose approaches from different perspectives. The coordination unit holds an exchange of ideas meeting, bringing together proposers with high affinity based on the ideas proposed by the proposal unit. For example, the coordination unit uses the generation AI to analyze information on past ideas and proposers, identifies proposers with high affinity, and sends invitations to the exchange of ideas meeting. As a result, the system according to this embodiment can efficiently evaluate the proposer's idea, add originality, and refine the idea by conducting opinion exchange meetings.

[0030] The collection unit accumulates past ideas as knowledge. Specifically, it stores collections of ideas from past generative AI contests in a database, making them accessible to the generative AI. The collection unit systematically classifies and tags these ideas, enabling the generative AI to efficiently search and reference them. For example, it adds metadata such as the idea's theme, technology field, and the problem it aims to solve, allowing for the rapid extraction of relevant ideas in response to search queries. The collection unit also accumulates additional information such as evaluation results and implementation status of ideas, enabling the generative AI to learn from past successes and failures. In this way, the collection unit provides a foundation for the generative AI to generate new ideas by utilizing past knowledge. Furthermore, the collection unit regularly updates the database, adding new ideas and evaluation results to maintain up-to-date information. In this way, the collection unit supports the generative AI in generating ideas that reflect the latest trends and technological developments.

[0031] The reception section allows proposers to input their ideas. Specifically, it provides an interface for proposers to input an overview and details of their ideas and send them to the generation AI. The reception section features a user-friendly input form, making it easy for proposers to input their ideas. For example, it includes fields for inputting the idea's title, overview, detailed description, expected effects, and relevant technologies and markets. The reception section also provides a function for proposers to upload images, diagrams, and reference materials to supplement their ideas. Furthermore, the reception section has a function to automatically check the content of the input ideas to ensure there is no missing information or inappropriate expression. In this way, the reception section supports proposers in inputting high-quality ideas, enabling the generation AI to analyze them accurately.

[0032] The evaluation department evaluates ideas received by the reception department by comparing them to past ideas. Specifically, a generative AI analyzes the input ideas and evaluates their originality and value by comparing them to past ideas. The evaluation department uses natural language processing technology to analyze the content of ideas and calculate similarity and relevance. For example, it extracts keywords and phrases from ideas and compares them to past ideas to evaluate their degree of originality. The evaluation department also evaluates ideas from the perspectives of feasibility, marketability, and technical difficulty. This includes a function in which the generative AI refers to past success and failure cases to predict the probability of success of the proposed idea. Furthermore, the evaluation department provides feedback on the evaluation results to the proposer, suggesting areas for improvement and points to strengthen the idea. In this way, the evaluation department provides the proposer with guidance to objectively evaluate their own idea and refine it.

[0033] The Proposal Department proposes new and unique ideas based on those evaluated by the Evaluation Department. Specifically, the Generative AI adds new elements to the proposer's idea or suggests approaches from different perspectives. The Proposal Department uses the Generative AI to refer to past ideas and evaluation results to generate new ideas that further develop the proposer's idea. For example, it may propose ways to create new value by combining different technologies or approaches to address different market needs for the proposer's idea. The Proposal Department also has a function where the Generative AI analyzes the proposer's idea from multiple angles, identifies potential challenges and risks, and proposes solutions. In this way, the Proposal Department provides specific advice to proposers to further develop their ideas and increase their feasibility. Furthermore, the Proposal Department stores the proposed new ideas in a database and uses it as a knowledge base for future idea generation.

[0034] The Coordination Department will organize an exchange of ideas meeting, bringing together proposers with similar ideas based on the ideas proposed by the Proposal Department. Specifically, a generation AI will analyze past ideas and proposer information to identify highly compatible proposers and send them invitations to the exchange of ideas meeting. The Coordination Department will provide an online platform to enable proposers to exchange ideas efficiently. For example, a dedicated exchange of ideas platform equipped with a video conferencing system and chat function will be provided, allowing proposers to exchange ideas in real time. The Coordination Department will also assign facilitators to support the progress of the exchange of ideas meeting and help ensure that the discussion proceeds smoothly. Furthermore, the Coordination Department will provide a function to record the content of the exchange of ideas meeting so that it can be referenced later. This will allow proposers to gain new perspectives and ideas through exchange of ideas with other proposers and further refine their own ideas. The Coordination Department will store the results of the exchange of ideas meeting in a database and use it as a knowledge base for future idea generation and evaluation.

[0035] The collection unit can store collections of ideas from past generation AI contests as knowledge. For example, the collection unit can store collections of ideas from past generation AI contests in a database, making them accessible to generation AI. This allows for the evaluation of proposers' ideas by accumulating past ideas as knowledge. Some or all of the above processing in the collection unit may be performed using AI, or not. For example, when storing past ideas in the database, the collection unit can use AI to classify and tag the ideas.

[0036] The evaluation unit can assess the originality and value of a proposer's idea by comparing it to past ideas. For example, the evaluation unit can use a generative AI to analyze the input idea and evaluate its originality and value by comparing it to past ideas. This allows the evaluation unit to grasp the originality and value of the proposer's idea by comparing it to past ideas. Some or all of the above processing in the evaluation unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the evaluation unit can use a generative AI to numerically evaluate the similarity and novelty of ideas and provide feedback to the proposer.

[0037] The proposal department can propose ideas that add new uniqueness if the originality is lacking. For example, the proposal department might use generative AI to add new elements to the proposer's idea or suggest approaches from different perspectives. This allows the proposer's idea to be refined by proposing ideas that add new uniqueness, even if the originality is lacking. Some or all of the above-described processes in the proposal department may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, the proposal department could propose a method for adding new elements to the proposer's idea using generative AI.

[0038] The coordination unit can organize an exchange of ideas meeting bringing together proposers with high affinity.

[0068] (Example of form 2) The system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that evaluates the originality and value of ideas in a generative AI contest and promotes the exchange of opinions among proposers. This system accumulates a collection of ideas from past generative AI contests as knowledge, and proposers input their own ideas, which the generative AI then compares with past ideas to evaluate their originality and value. If an idea lacks originality, the generative AI proposes an idea with added unique features. Furthermore, for useful ideas, the system selects other proposers with similar ideas and holds an exchange of opinions meeting with these proposers. This mechanism gives proposers the opportunity to refine their ideas. For example, a collection of ideas from past generative AI contests is accumulated as knowledge. At this time, detailed information on each idea is stored in a database so that the generative AI can access it. This includes, for example, an overview of the idea, information on the proposer, and evaluation results. Next, the proposer inputs their own idea. The proposer inputs an overview and details of their idea and sends it to the generative AI. The generative AI analyzes the input idea and compares it with past ideas. The generative AI evaluates the originality and value by comparing it with past ideas. For example, it evaluates similarity and novelty numerically and provides feedback to the proposer. If an idea lacks originality, the generative AI will suggest ideas that add new uniqueness. For example, it may add new elements to the proposer's idea or suggest an approach from a different perspective. It will also select other idea proposers with similar ideas for useful ideas. The generative AI analyzes information on past ideas and proposers to identify proposers with similar interests. For example, it may select proposers who are interested in the same field or theme. It will then hold an exchange of ideas meeting with the proposers. The generative AI will send invitations to the selected proposers to the exchange of ideas meeting, providing them with an opportunity to refine their ideas with each other. For example, the exchange of ideas may take place in the form of an online meeting or workshop. This system allows proposers to have the opportunity to refine their ideas. Through the exchange of ideas among proposers, new perspectives and ideas are generated, making it possible to propose more original and valuable ideas.Furthermore, the evaluation and suggestions provided by the generating AI allow proposers to understand the strengths and weaknesses of their ideas and identify areas for improvement. This enables the system to efficiently evaluate proposers' ideas, add uniqueness, and facilitate idea refinement through discussion sessions.

[0143] [Third Embodiment] Figure 5 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment.

[0144] As shown in Figure 5, the data processing system 310 includes a data processing device 12 and a headset terminal 314. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0145] 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.

[0146] The headset terminal 314 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a display 343. 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, camera 42, and display 343 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0147] 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.

[0148] 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).

[0149] 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.

[0150] Figure 6 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the headset terminal 314. As shown in Figure 6, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] In the headset terminal 314, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific 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 program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The headset terminal 314 also has a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0154] 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.).

[0155] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the headset terminal 314. In the headset terminal 314, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and display 343 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] The data processing system 310 according to the third embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 310 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314, but may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the headset terminal 314 or an external device, and the headset terminal 314 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0158] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, reception unit, evaluation unit, proposal unit, and coordination unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the headset terminal 314 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and stores past ideas in the database 24. The reception unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the headset terminal 314 and receives the proposer's idea. The evaluation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the input idea, comparing it with past ideas to evaluate its originality and value. The proposal unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and adds new elements to the proposer's idea or proposes an approach from a different perspective. The coordination unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and conducts an exchange of opinions meeting bringing together proposers with high affinity. 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.

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

[0160] 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.

[0161] 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.

[0162] The robot 414 includes a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, a communication interface 44, and a controlled object 443. 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, camera 42, and controlled object 443 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0163] 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.

[0164] 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 image sensor or CCD 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).

[0165] 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.

[0166] The controlled object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. The robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.

[0167] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0168] 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.

[0169] 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.

[0170] In robot 414, specific processing is performed by processor 46. A specific program 60 is stored in storage 50. Processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from storage 50 and executes it on RAM 48. The specific processing is achieved by processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific program 60 executed on RAM 48. Robot 414 also has data generation model 58 and emotion identification model 59, similar to those of the robot, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0171] 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.).

[0172] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the controlled object 443 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.

[0173] 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).

[0174] 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.

[0175] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, reception unit, evaluation unit, proposal unit, and adjustment unit, is implemented by, for example, at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and stores past ideas in the database 24. The reception unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and receives the proposer's idea. The evaluation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the input idea, comparing it with past ideas to evaluate its originality and value. The proposal unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and adds new elements to the proposer's idea or proposes an approach from a different perspective. The adjustment unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and conducts an exchange of ideas meeting bringing together proposers with similar affinities. 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.

[0176] 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.

[0177] 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.

[0178] 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] 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.

[0181] 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."

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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.

[0184] 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.

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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.

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.

[0191] 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.

[0192] 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.
