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 pet-type matchmaking consultant robot system according to an embodiment of the present invention is an innovative system for supporting men and women who desire marriage but are unsuccessful in their search for a partner. This system has a cute appearance in the shape of a cat or dog, while incorporating the methods of a charismatic matchmaking advisor. The system provides rigorous guidance on matters that are difficult to discuss with friends, such as improving the user's appearance and clothing, conversation techniques, and setting up dates. This raises the user's matchmaking quotient and reliably leads to the establishment of a relationship with the intention of marriage. For example, a user rents a robot and begins their search for a partner. The robot uses a generating AI to consult and clarify the conditions the user seeks in a partner. Next, it analyzes the user's clothing, hairstyle, and conversation content using camera footage and recorded conversations to provide specific and practical improvement advice. Furthermore, it analyzes the feelings expressed in messages from the opposite sex and speaks and explains the intent behind their statements. It also learns behaviors that are considered unacceptable in the matchmaking industry and provides strict criticism based on the user's behavior. This robot can alleviate the loneliness of single people while providing support. Having a companion at home makes it harder to ignore the process of finding a partner, helping to maintain motivation. The ability to talk to the robot and offer advice in everyday life is a unique feature of a robot, not an app. Users can even choose the level of bluntness of the advice, providing support tailored to their needs. This service will help create a world where men and women seeking marriage can reliably find a partner, contributing to the solution of the declining birthrate. As the user grows, the robot will return to its "home" (within the app) when its role is complete, providing a touching experience for the user. In this way, the pet-type matchmaking consultant robot system can support men and women who want to get married but are unsuccessful in their search for a partner, raising their matchmaking quotient and leading them to a relationship with the intention of marriage.

[0029] The pet-type matchmaking consultant robot system according to this embodiment comprises a consulting unit, an analysis unit, and an advice unit. The consulting unit clarifies the conditions the user seeks in a partner of the opposite sex. The consulting unit consults on and clarifies the conditions the user seeks in a partner of the opposite sex, for example, using a generative AI. The generative AI generates the conditions the user seeks in a partner of the opposite sex based on the user's input information.

Specifically, the Consulting Department uses generative AI to consult with users and clarify the criteria they seek in a romantic partner. The generative AI generates criteria for a romantic partner based on the user's input information. For example, the generative AI receives information such as the user's personality, appearance, hobbies, and values ​​as input, and uses this information to clarify the criteria for a romantic partner. Users input detailed information about their personality, values, hobbies, and past romantic experiences through a dedicated interface. The generative AI analyzes this information using natural language processing technology to deeply understand the user's preferences and values. Furthermore, the generative AI lists specific criteria for a romantic partner based on the user's input information. For example, if a user inputs criteria such as "kind personality" or "likes the outdoors," the generative AI will generate even more detailed criteria based on these. For example, it will suggest specific examples of actions related to "kind personality" or specific activities related to "likes the outdoors." This allows users to understand their criteria for a romantic partner more concretely. Furthermore, the generating AI uses past data and statistical information based on the user's input to suggest the most suitable criteria for a partner. For example, it suggests criteria for a compatible partner based on past success stories and statistical data. This allows users to understand their own desired criteria for a partner more concretely and realistically.

[0054] (Example of form 2) The pet-type matchmaking consultant robot system according to an embodiment of the present invention is an innovative system for supporting men and women who desire marriage but are unsuccessful in their search for a partner. This system has a cute appearance in the shape of a cat or dog, while incorporating the methods of a charismatic matchmaking advisor. The system provides rigorous guidance on matters that are difficult to discuss with friends, such as improving the user's appearance and clothing, conversation techniques, and setting up dates. This raises the user's matchmaking quotient and reliably leads to the establishment of a relationship with the intention of marriage. For example, a user rents a robot and begins their search for a partner. The robot uses a generating AI to consult and clarify the conditions the user seeks in a partner. Next, it analyzes the user's clothing, hairstyle, and conversation content using camera footage and recorded conversations to provide specific and practical improvement advice. Furthermore, it analyzes the feelings expressed in messages from the opposite sex and speaks and explains the intent behind their statements. It also learns behaviors that are considered unacceptable in the matchmaking industry and provides strict criticism based on the user's behavior. This robot can alleviate the loneliness of single people while providing support. Having a companion at home makes it harder to ignore the process of finding a partner, helping to maintain motivation. The ability to talk to the robot and offer advice in everyday life is a unique feature of a robot, not an app. Users can even choose the level of bluntness of the advice, providing support tailored to their needs. This service will help create a world where men and women seeking marriage can reliably find a partner, contributing to the solution of the declining birthrate. As the user grows, the robot will return to its "home" (within the app) when its role is complete, providing a touching experience for the user. In this way, the pet-type matchmaking consultant robot system can support men and women who want to get married but are unsuccessful in their search for a partner, raising their matchmaking quotient and leading them to a relationship with the intention of marriage.

[0143] 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.

[0144] 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.

[0145] 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.

[0146] 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.

[0147] 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.

[0148] 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."

[0149] 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.

[0150] 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.

[0151] 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.

[0152] 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.

[0153] 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.

[0154] 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.

[0155] 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.

[0156] 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.

[0157] 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.

[0158] 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.

[0159] 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.
