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 childcare support system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that uses a generating AI to automatically create a childcare plan tailored to the age of a baby born to a single parent. This childcare support system takes information about the baby's age as input, and the generating AI analyzes this information to create a childcare plan. This childcare plan includes schedules for meals, sleep, play, and health checks. Furthermore, the childcare support system can remind caregivers at appropriate times and provide consultation as needed. This mechanism allows single parents to receive support to help their babies grow. For example, when inputting information about the baby's age, it is only necessary to input the baby's date of birth and current age. For example, "The baby's date of birth is January 1, 2023" is entered. This information is input into the generating AI. Next, the generating AI analyzes the input information and automatically creates a childcare plan tailored to the baby's age. The generating AI calculates the optimal childcare plan according to the baby's age and creates a schedule based on that plan. For example, if the baby is 6 months old, the generating AI creates a schedule for meals, sleep, play, and health checks that is suitable for a 6-month-old baby. The created childcare plan includes schedules for meals, sleep, playtime, and health checks. For example, the meal schedule specifies what the baby should eat and when. The sleep schedule specifies when the baby should sleep. The playtime schedule specifies what kind of play the baby should do and when. The health check schedule specifies when the baby should have health checks. Furthermore, the childcare support system provides reminders at appropriate times. For example, when mealtime approaches, the childcare support system will remind the supporter, "It's time for the baby's meal." Similarly, when health check time approaches, the childcare support system will remind the supporter, "It's time for the baby's health check." The childcare support system can also provide consultation to supporters as needed. For example, if a supporter asks, "My baby cries at night, what should I do?", the childcare support system will provide appropriate advice.In this way, the childcare support system provides support to single parents in raising their babies. This system reduces the burden of childcare for single parents and allows them to support their babies' development. For example, by managing the baby's feeding and sleep schedule, the baby's health can be maintained. Also, by sending reminders to supporters at appropriate times, childcare schedules can be followed without being forgotten. Furthermore, the childcare support system can help resolve childcare-related worries by providing consultation to supporters. In this way, the childcare support system can provide support to single parents in raising their babies.

[0029] The childcare support system according to this embodiment comprises a reception unit, a generation unit, a management unit, a reminder unit, and a consultation unit. The reception unit inputs information about the baby's age in months. This information includes, but is not limited to, the date of birth, weight, and height. For example, the reception unit can calculate the baby's age in months by inputting the baby's date of birth. The reception unit can also input information such as the baby's weight and height. The generation unit uses a generation AI to analyze the information input by the reception unit and create a childcare plan. For example, the generation unit calculates an optimal childcare plan according to the baby's age in months and creates a schedule based on that plan. For example, if the baby is 6 months old, the generation unit creates a schedule for meals, sleep, play, and health checks suitable for a 6-month-old baby. The generation unit can use a generation AI to calculate an optimal childcare plan according to the baby's age in months. The management unit manages the schedule based on the childcare plan created by the generation unit. For example, the management unit manages the schedule for meals, sleep, play, and health checks based on the created childcare plan. The management department manages schedules such as: the meal schedule, which specifies what the baby should eat and when; the sleep schedule, which specifies when the baby should sleep; the play schedule, which specifies what kind of play the baby should do and when; and the health check schedule, which specifies when the baby should have a health check. The reminder department reminds caregivers at appropriate times based on the schedules managed by the management department. For example, when mealtime is approaching, the reminder department will remind caregivers with "It's time for the baby's meal." Similarly, when health check time is approaching, the reminder department will remind caregivers with "It's time for the baby's health check." The reminder department can remind caregivers at appropriate times. The consultation department provides consultation to caregivers who have been reminded by the reminder department. For example, if a caregiver asks, "My baby cries at night, what should I do?", the consultation department will provide appropriate advice. The consultation department can provide consultation to caregivers.As a result, the childcare support system according to this embodiment can automatically create a childcare plan according to the baby's age in months, manage the schedule, send reminders to caregivers at appropriate times, and provide consultation.

[0030] The reception desk inputs information about the baby's age in months. This information includes, but is not limited to, the date of birth, weight, and height. For example, the reception desk can calculate the baby's age in months by inputting the baby's date of birth. The reception desk can also input information such as the baby's weight and height. Specifically, the reception desk provides a field for inputting the baby's date of birth through the user interface. When the user enters the baby's date of birth, the system automatically calculates the baby's age in months by comparing it to the current date. In addition, input fields for weight and height are also provided, and this data is used for growth tracking and health management. For example, by regularly recording weight changes and height growth, the baby's growth pattern can be understood, and any abnormalities can be detected early. The reception desk can centrally manage this information and share data in cooperation with other departments. For example, the entered data is stored in a database accessible to the generation and management departments and used for creating childcare plans and managing schedules. This allows the reception department to accurately and efficiently collect basic information about babies and support the overall operation of the system.

[0031] The generation unit uses a generation AI to analyze information entered by the reception unit and create a childcare plan. For example, the generation unit calculates the optimal childcare plan based on the baby's age in months and creates a schedule based on that plan. Specifically, the generation AI receives data such as the baby's age in months, weight, and height as input, and generates the optimal childcare plan based on past data and expert knowledge. For example, if the baby is 6 months old, it will create a schedule for meals, sleep, play, and health checks that is suitable for a 6-month-old baby. The generation AI considers the nutritional balance and sleep patterns according to the baby's developmental stage and provides an individually customized plan. For example, the meal schedule includes when to start solid foods and how to choose appropriate ingredients, and the sleep schedule includes nap times and nighttime sleep times. The play schedule includes the types and duration of play according to the developmental stage, and the health check schedule includes the timing of regular health checkups and vaccinations. Based on this information, the generation unit provides a comprehensive childcare plan to support the baby's growth. Furthermore, the generation unit can utilize the learning function of the generation AI to improve the accuracy of the plan based on user feedback. This allows the generation unit to constantly provide optimal childcare plans incorporating the latest information and technology, thereby reducing the burden on caregivers.

[0032] The management department manages schedules based on the childcare plans created by the generation department. For example, the management department manages schedules for meals, sleep, play, and health checks based on the created childcare plans. Specifically, the management department receives the childcare plans provided by the generation department and sets detailed schedules for each item. For example, the meal schedule includes what the baby should eat and when. Specifically, it details the times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as the timing of snacks and the types and amounts of food. The sleep schedule includes when the baby should sleep. Specifically, it sets the times for naps, nighttime bedtime, and wake-up time, and includes advice on how to regulate the baby's sleep rhythm. The play schedule includes what kind of play the baby should do and when. Specifically, it details the types and duration of play according to the developmental stage, as well as the content and methods of play. The health check schedule includes when the baby should receive health checks. Specifically, it includes the timing of regular health checkups and vaccinations, and how to perform health checks at home. The management department centrally manages these schedules and makes them easily accessible to support staff. For example, caregivers can check schedules and make changes or adjustments as needed through smartphone apps or web portals. This allows the management department to efficiently manage the baby's care plan and reduce the burden on caregivers.

[0033] The Reminders Department sends reminders to caregivers at appropriate times based on the schedule managed by the Management Department. For example, when mealtime approaches, the Reminders Department will remind caregivers with "It's time for your baby's meal." Similarly, when health check time approaches, the Reminders Department will remind caregivers with "It's time for your baby's health check." Specifically, the Reminders Department monitors the timing of each event based on the schedule information provided by the Management Department and sends notifications at the appropriate time. For example, when mealtime approaches, it will remind caregivers via smartphone push notifications or voice alerts. Similarly, when health check time approaches, it will send a notification to encourage caregivers to remember to perform the health check. The Reminders Department can customize the notification method and timing, allowing for flexible responses to caregivers' lifestyles and preferences. For example, by allowing caregivers to select the frequency, volume, and method of notification (push notifications, email, SMS, etc.), more effective reminders can be achieved. Furthermore, the Reminders Department can collect feedback from caregivers and continuously improve the accuracy and timing of notifications. This allows the reminder function to support caregivers in ensuring they adhere to the baby's childcare schedule, thereby reducing the burden of childcare.

[0034] The Consultation Department provides support to caregivers who have been reminded by the Reminder Department. For example, if a caregiver asks, "My baby cries at night, what should I do?", the Consultation Department will provide appropriate advice. Specifically, the Consultation Department receives the caregiver's inquiry and provides the best possible advice based on expert knowledge and past data. For example, in the case of a consultation about nighttime crying, the department will check the baby's sleep environment, daytime activity level, and diet, and suggest areas for improvement. The Consultation Department can also provide expert advice and reference information to address caregivers' parenting concerns and questions. For example, it can provide a wide range of parenting information, such as how to introduce solid foods, vaccination schedules, and play methods appropriate for developmental stages. The Consultation Department plays a role in providing appropriate support so that caregivers can raise their children with peace of mind. Furthermore, the Consultation Department can continuously improve the accuracy and content of the advice it provides based on feedback from caregivers. For example, by recording how caregivers reacted to the advice provided and using this information in future consultations, the department can provide more individually customized support. This will enable the consultation department to respond quickly and appropriately to the childcare concerns and questions that supporters have, thereby improving the quality of childcare.

[0035] The generation unit can calculate the optimal childcare plan according to the baby's age in months and create a schedule based on that plan. For example, if the baby is 6 months old, the generation unit will create a schedule for meals, sleep, playtime, and health checks that is suitable for a 6-month-old baby. The generation unit can calculate the optimal childcare plan according to the baby's age in months using generation AI. This improves the efficiency of childcare by calculating the optimal childcare plan according to the baby's age and creating a schedule.

[0036] The management department can manage schedules for meals, sleep, playtime, and health checks based on the created childcare plan. For example, the management department manages schedules for meals, sleep, playtime, and health checks based on the created childcare plan. For example, the meal schedule includes what the baby should eat and when. The sleep schedule includes what the baby should sleep at. The playtime schedule includes what kind of play the baby should do and when. The health check schedule includes what time the baby should have a health check. This makes childcare schedule management easier by managing schedules for meals, sleep, playtime, and health checks. Some or all of the above processes in the management department may be performed using AI, for example, or not using AI. For example, the management department can manage schedules for meals, sleep, playtime, and health checks based on the created childcare plan using an AI model.

[0037] The reminder unit can remind caregivers with a message like "It's time for the baby's meal" when mealtime is approaching.

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.

[0138] 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. The smart glasses 214 also have 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.

[0139] 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.).

[0140] 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.

[0141] 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.

[0158] 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 correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.

[0160] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0161] 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.

[0162] 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.

[0164] 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.

[0165] 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).

[0166] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54.

[0167] 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.

[0168] 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.

[0169] 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.

Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0171] 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.

[0172] 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.).

[0173] 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.

[0174] 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 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.

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.

[0175] 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.

[0176] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the reception unit, generation unit, management unit, reminder unit, and consultation unit, is implemented by, for example, 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 inputs information about the baby's age in months. The generation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and creates a childcare plan using generation AI. The management unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and manages the schedule based on the childcare plan. The reminder unit is implemented by, for example, the control unit 46A of the robot 414 and sends reminders to the caregiver at the appropriate time. The consultation unit is implemented by, for example, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and provides consultation to the caregiver. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be changed in various ways.

[0177] 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.

[0178] 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.

[0179] 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.

[0180] 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.

[0181] 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.

[0182] 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."

[0183] 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.

[0184] 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.

[0185] 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.

[0186] 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.

[0187] 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.

[0188] 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.
