Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional dialogue data collection methods face difficulties in generating natural dialogues, particularly in collecting multi-turn dialogues and establishing authentic persona information, leading to suboptimal quality of collected data.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device and method that presents role information to users, detects inconsistencies in their inputs, and provides feedback for correction, using a system that includes a role presentation unit, acquisition unit, detection unit, and inconsistency presentation unit to enhance the quality of dialogue data by ensuring alignment with predefined persona profiles.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If conventional dialogue data collection methods are used, then data collection can be performed with simple processes, but the quality and naturalness of collected dialogue data deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of data collectionVSAvoidquality of dialogue data
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements real-time feedback by detecting inconsistencies between user inputs and persona information, then presenting warnings to users. This feedback loop ensures that collected dialogue data maintains high quality and naturalness while keeping the collection process simple and automated.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of operation

If users are allowed to input freely without constraints, then ease of operation is improved, but consistency with persona profiles deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of user inputVSAvoidconsistency with persona
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The detection unit continuously monitors user inputs for inconsistencies with persona information and provides immediate feedback through warnings. This allows users to operate freely while maintaining reliability through real-time consistency checking and correction opportunities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Manufacturing precision

If manual data collection methods are used, then quality of dialogue data is improved, but cost and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of dialogue dataVSAvoidcost and time efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automatic inconsistency detection and validation without requiring manual review of each dialogue input. The detection unit autonomously checks user inputs against persona information, enabling high-quality data collection at scale without proportionally increasing costs or time consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

4Reliability

If persona information is forcibly discussed in dialogues, then persona authenticity is improved, but naturalness of dialogue deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersona authenticityVSAvoidnaturalness of dialogue
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of forcing persona discussions, the system subtly guides users toward authentic persona expression through inconsistency warnings. The feedback mechanism nudges users to align with their persona naturally, maintaining dialogue flow while ensuring persona authenticity without explicit forced discussions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

An information processing device according to an embodiment includes: a role presentation unit (111) that presents, to a first user, a role set to the first user; an acquisition unit (112) that acquires first data input by the first user at a time of input of the first data; a detection unit (103) that detects, as inconsistency information, information that is included in the first data acquired by the acquisition unit and inconsistent with the role; and an inconsistency presentation unit (110) that presents, to the first user, a message based on the inconsistency information detected from the first data by the detection unit.
