[0028] (Example of form 1) The mentoring system according to an embodiment of the present invention is an innovative system that provides 24-hour support for the growth of new employees. This mentoring system utilizes individualized learning plans, real-time work support, and a rich knowledge database, and works in conjunction with human supervisors and senior colleagues to achieve efficient and consistent new employee training. It contributes to improving the productivity of the entire organization through the transfer of experience and the maximization of individual potential. For example, the mentoring system collects what the new employee understands. What the new employee has learned is recorded in notes and shared with agents. For example, information such as "This specification document is scheduled to be provided tomorrow, and I don't understand the content on page 17" is shared. Next, the mentoring system analyzes the information on chats and documents and provides explanations in language that the new employee understands. For example, it provides an explanation such as "On-premise is like Apigee, which we learned about the other day, and we are talking about the normal situation where a 200 response is returned." Furthermore, the mentoring system analyzes the chat content and prompts consultation with a mentor for urgent matters. For example, it provides advice such as "This is about on-premise. Consult with your mentor immediately!" The mentoring system also assists with questions while conveying the prerequisites to the mentor. For example, information such as, "The new employee currently has an incomplete understanding of on-premises systems. They are aware that one of the on-premises systems is Apigee. Please prioritize teaching them this task, as it is due tomorrow," might be provided. This agent-assisted support reduces the workload on the department and allows for significant growth in the new employee. In this way, the training system can efficiently support the growth of new employees.
[0029] The instruction system according to this embodiment comprises a collection unit, an analysis unit, a consultation promotion unit, and an assistance unit. The collection unit collects what new employees understand. The collection unit collects information, for example, by having new employees record what they have learned in notes. The collection unit can also collect information through, for example, questionnaires or interviews. The collection unit can also grasp the level of understanding of new employees through observation. The analysis unit analyzes the information collected by the collection unit. The analysis unit analyzes the information using, for example, data analysis techniques. The analysis unit can also evaluate the level of understanding of new employees using, for example, statistical analysis. The analysis unit can also analyze the information using text mining techniques. The consultation promotion unit prompts new employees to consult with their instructors for urgent matters based on the information analyzed by the analysis unit. The consultation promotion unit prompts new employees to consult with their instructors using, for example, notifications or alerts. The consultation promotion unit can also prompt new employees to consult with their instructors using, for example, reminders. The consultation promotion unit can also prioritize notifying instructors of urgent matters. The Assist Unit assists the instructor with questions while conveying prerequisites based on consultations facilitated by the Consultation Facilitation Unit. The Assist Unit supports the instructor, for example, by providing question templates. The Assist Unit can also assist the instructor using support tools, for example. The Assist Unit can also support the instructor by providing background information and relevant data. This allows the instruction system according to the embodiment to efficiently support the growth of new employees. Some or all of the above-described processes in the Collection Unit, Analysis Unit, Consultation Facilitation Unit, and Assist Unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI. For example, when a new employee records what they have learned in a memo, the Collection Unit can use AI to analyze the contents of the memo and evaluate the level of understanding. The Analysis Unit can input the collected information into the AI, which can then analyze the information. The Consultation Facilitation Unit can use AI to automatically determine which consultations are urgent and notify the instructor. The Assist Unit can use AI to generate question templates and provide them to the instructor.
[0030] The data collection department collects information on what new employees understand. For example, this information is collected when new employees record what they have learned in notes. Specifically, new employees use a dedicated application to record the knowledge and skills they acquire through daily work and training. This application automatically saves the contents of the notes to the cloud, making them accessible to the data collection department. The data collection department can also collect information through surveys and interviews. Surveys are sent to new employees regularly, and the responses are stored in a database. Interviews are conducted via video calls or in person, and the content is recorded and videotaped for later analysis. Furthermore, the data collection department can assess new employees' understanding through observation. For example, supervisors and mentors observe new employees' work performance and record it on evaluation sheets. These evaluation sheets are sent to the data collection department and integrated with other data. This allows the data collection department to understand new employees' understanding from multiple perspectives and collect detailed data. Additionally, the data collection department can centrally manage this data and collaborate with other departments as needed. For example, collected data is stored on a cloud server and made accessible to the analysis and consultation departments. Furthermore, by adjusting the frequency and accuracy of data collection, flexible responses can be made to specific situations and conditions. This allows the data collection department to collect data efficiently and effectively, improving the overall system performance.
[0031] The Analysis Department analyzes the information collected by the Collection Department. For example, the Analysis Department uses data analysis techniques to analyze the information. Specifically, it analyzes collected notes, questionnaires, and interview content using text mining techniques to extract frequently occurring keywords and phrases. This allows for an understanding of the knowledge and skills acquired by new employees. Furthermore, statistical analysis can be used to evaluate the understanding of new employees. For example, questionnaire responses are compiled and the distribution and trends of understanding are analyzed. In addition, AI can be used to analyze the collected information. AI uses natural language processing techniques to analyze text data, evaluate understanding, and identify problems. For example, AI can analyze the content of new employees' notes and identify areas of high and low understanding. This allows the Analysis Department to quickly and accurately analyze collected data and grasp the understanding of new employees. Furthermore, the Analysis Department can utilize historical data and statistical information to analyze long-term trends and patterns. For example, based on past data of new employees, it can predict fluctuations in understanding at specific times and under specific conditions and formulate future countermeasures. Furthermore, by using anomaly detection algorithms, it is possible to detect unusual patterns and abnormal data and issue warnings early. This allows the analysis unit to not only grasp the situation in real time but also to handle long-term risk management and anomaly detection, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the entire system.
[0032] The Consultation Promotion Department prompts new employees to consult with their mentors for urgent matters based on information analyzed by the Analysis Department. Specifically, it uses AI to automatically determine the urgency of matters and notify mentors. For example, the AI identifies areas where new employees have difficulty understanding or problems based on the analyzed data and assesses their urgency. If it is determined to be urgent, it sends a notification or alert to the mentor. Notifications are sent via email or messaging apps to enable mentors to respond quickly. It can also use reminders to prompt mentors to consult. Reminders are sent to mentors regularly to ensure they do not forget matters that require attention. Furthermore, the Consultation Promotion Department can prioritize notifying mentors of urgent matters. For example, the AI identifies the most urgent issue from among multiple issues and notifies mentors of it as a priority. This allows mentors to respond quickly to important issues. In addition, the Consultation Promotion Department also supports mentors in taking appropriate action. For example, it provides mentors with detailed information and background information on the problem and suggests appropriate response methods. This allows the consultation promotion department to support mentors in responding quickly and appropriately, thereby efficiently promoting the growth of new employees.
[0033] The Assistance Department assists instructors with questions while communicating prerequisites based on consultations facilitated by the Consultation Facilitation Department. Specifically, it generates question templates using AI and provides them to instructors. For example, the AI generates question templates that instructors should ask new employees based on collected data and analysis results. These templates include specific question content, question order, and intent, enabling instructors to ask questions efficiently. The Assistance Department can also assist instructors using support tools. For example, it installs a dedicated assistance tool on the tablet or PC used by instructors, providing real-time support when instructors ask questions. This tool has the function of suggesting appropriate answer examples and additional questions as instructors input questions. Furthermore, the Assistance Department can support instructors by providing background information and relevant data. For example, it provides instructors with the new employee's past learning history and evaluation results of their comprehension level, enabling instructors to understand the new employee's situation and provide appropriate guidance. In this way, the Assistance Department can support instructors in efficiently and effectively guiding new employees and promote their growth. Furthermore, the support unit can collect feedback from instructors and continuously improve the accuracy of question templates and support tools. This allows the support unit to provide optimal support for both instructors and new employees, thereby improving the overall performance of the system.
[0034] The memo section allows new employees to record what they have learned in notes. The memo section allows new employees to record notes by hand, for example. The memo section also allows new employees to record notes in digital format, for example. The memo section allows new employees to set the frequency of note recording, for example. This makes it easier for new employees to organize what they have learned by recording it in notes. Some or all of the above processes in the memo section may be performed using AI, for example, or not using AI. For example, the memo section can input the notes recorded by new employees into an AI, which can then analyze the contents of the notes.
[0035] The analysis unit includes an explanation unit that analyzes chat and document screen information and provides explanations in language that new employees understand. For example, the explanation unit can analyze chat text data and provide explanations in language that new employees can easily understand. The explanation unit can also analyze document screen information and provide explanations in language that new employees can easily understand. The explanation unit can also replace technical terms with everyday terms when providing explanations. This improves the level of understanding by providing explanations in language that new employees understand. Some or all of the above processing in the explanation unit may be performed using, for example, a generative AI, or not using a generative AI. For example, the explanation unit can input chat text data into a generative AI, and the generative AI can generate explanations in language that new employees can easily understand.
[0036] The Consultation Facilitation Department encourages consultation with supervisors for urgent matters. The Consultation Facilitation Department can assess urgency based on, for example, the importance of the task. The Consultation Facilitation Department can also assess urgency based on, for example, the approaching deadline. The Consultation Facilitation Department can also encourage consultation with supervisors using, for example, notifications or alerts.

[0140] 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).
[0141] 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.
[0142] Figure 4 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart glasses 214. As shown in Figure 4, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing by the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

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.
[0144] 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.
[0145] In the smart glasses 214, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48.

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.).
[0147] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

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.

[0167] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.
[0168] 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the collection unit, analysis unit, consultation promotion unit, assistance unit, memo unit, and load reduction unit, is implemented, for example, by at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the collection unit is implemented by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and collects information by recording what new employees have learned in memos. The analysis unit is implemented, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the collected information. The consultation promotion unit is implemented, for example, by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and prompts new employees to consult with their supervisors for urgent matters. The assistance unit is implemented, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and assists with questions while conveying prerequisites to the supervisor. The memo unit is implemented, for example, by the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and records what new employees have learned in memos. The load reduction unit is implemented, for example, by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and reduces the workload on the department with agent support. The correspondence between each part and the device or control unit is not limited to the examples described above, and various modifications are possible.
[0184] 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.
[0185] 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.
[0186] 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.
[0187] 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.
[0188] 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.
[0189] 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."
[0190] 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.
[0191] 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.
[0192] 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.
