Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure include computer-implemented methods and systems for providing generative adversarial network (GAN) digital image data. GAN digital image data corresponding to a suggested transaction for an identified customer can be determined.
Description
FIELD

The present disclosure relates generally to providing images for facilitating communication.


BACKGROUND

When people are visiting an establishment (e.g., a store or restaurant), they often wish to communicate (e.g., in order to make a transaction). For example, when a person cannot understand either spoken or written communications related to a transaction, help may be needed in order for the person to complete the transaction. There is a need to provide help to make the process easier.


SUMMARY

Aspects of the disclosure include a computer-implemented method for interacting with a user. Identity information for a user can be received. The identity information can be analyzed to identify the user. User information for an identified user can be retrieved, the user information indicating that a voice interacting with the identified user is to be translated into image data to help the identified user communicate with the voice. Translated image data translating voice instructions by the voice can be retrieved. The translated image data can be displayed to the identified user.


Aspects of the disclosure can also include accepting instructions from the identified user based on user interaction with the translated image data. The translated image data can include photographic image data and/or non-photographic image data. The photographic image data can be generated using a generative adversarial network (GAN). A sequence of voice instructions can be translated into a sequence of photographic images using the GAN. The translated image data can include pre-defined images representing possible transactions.


Aspects of the disclosure can include retrieving historical transaction information for the user, and determining a suggested transaction for the user based on the historical transaction information. Aspects of the disclosure can also include: determining the suggested transaction using previous transactions made by other users with demographics similar to the user; determining the suggested transaction using previous transactions made by the user; or determining the suggested transaction using a current location of the user and previous transactions made at the current location; or any combination thereof


Aspects of the disclosure can include a system for interacting with a user, the system including: a memory storing instructions and a processor. The processor can be configured to: receive physiological information and/or behavioral information for the user representing identifying information for a user; analyze the physiological information and/or the behavioral information for the user to determine an identity of the user; determine a need to provide photographic image data translating voice communication from a voice interacting with the user; display translated photographic image data translating the voice interacting with the user using a generative adversarial network (GAN); and accept instructions from the user.


According to some aspects, the translated photographic image data can be displayed in a video format. The processor can also be configured to: play audio data while the translated photographic image data is displayed; and/or display text data while the translated photographic image data is displayed.


According to some aspects, the processor can also be configured to: receive feedback information comprising body language information for the user; determine if the body language information signifies: an inability to understand the voice, a misunderstanding of the voice, or displeasure with a user experience, or any combination thereof; analyze the body language information in order to identify help information; and store the help information for the user.


According to some aspects, the processor can be configured to: receive feedback information comprising language spoken by the user; determine if the language spoken by the user includes pre-defined words signifying: an inability to understand the voice, a misunderstanding of the voice; or displeasure with a user experience, or any combination thereof; analyze the language spoken by the user in order to identify help information; and store the help information for the user.


According to some aspects, the processor can be configured to: receive feedback information from the user, the feedback information indicating difficulty the user has with understanding the transaction option; analyze the feedback information in order to identify help information; and store the help information for the user. The feedback information can include survey information.


According to some aspects, the processor can be configured to: receive feedback information from the user related to the appearance of a GAN translated photographic image; and store the feedback information for future application. The feedback information can include preferences related to: color, template, outline, font, or font size, or any combination thereof.


According to some aspects, a device can be provided for communicating with a user. The device can include a memory storing instructions and a processor. The processor can be configured to: display translated photographic image data translating a voice interacting with the user using a generative adversarial network (GAN); and accept instructions from the user. The processor can also be configured to determine a need to provide the translated photographic image data. The processor can also be configured to: determine multiple transaction options for an identified user based on historical data; and display an image for each transaction option. The processor can also be configured to: determine a probability for each transaction option; and display transaction option images in order of probability.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

Embodiments of the present disclosure may help facilitate communication with a user (e.g., in order to help complete a transaction). For example, when people are going to an establishment (e.g., a bank, restaurant/bar, movie theater, theme park, sports venue, music venue, etc.) or visiting an establishment's physical mobile site, web site or mobile device application, it may make it easier for them to communicate and/or complete a transaction if they can better communicate and/or if a relevant transaction were suggested. Examples using a banking institution establishment are discussed below. However, those of ordinary skill in the art will see that the system may also be used by many other types of establishments.



FIG. 1 is a diagram of an illustrative system 100 for communicating with a user in order to complete a transaction, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, a client 160 can access (e.g., over a network 150) an identification module 110, a convert voice to image module 115, a determine historical data module 120, a display module 130, and a feedback module 140.


The identification module 110 can identify the user using analyzed identity information. In some aspects of the disclosure, a credit card, photo ID, or other type of identification can be analyzed to identify the user. In other aspects, physiological information and/or behavioral information can be received from the user and provided to an identification system, and used to identify the user. The physiological information can include: iris data; retina data; eye vein data; fingerprint data; hand geometry data; facial data; or finger vein data; or any combination thereof. The behavioral information can include signature information and/or voice information.


For example, the user can interact with a system that scans her eye, checks her fingerprint, hand, face or finger, or any combination thereof. In addition, the user can be asked to provide a signature or talk so that her signature or voice can be identified by the system.


The determine historical data module 120 can: review historical information for the identified user, provide needed help information, or suggest one or more transactions based on this analyzed historical transaction data, or any combination thereof. The historical information can include feedback information and/or needed help information (e.g., such as whether or not the user would benefit from use of the convert voice to image module 115).


For example, the historical information can determine if previous feedback information has been provided for an identified user. For example, it can be determined that the identified user has had trouble understanding the voice of a customer service representative and/or a recorded voice interacting with the user. In this case, the convert voice to image module 115 can be used to help the user understand what the customer service representative and/or the recorded voice are saying. Multiple examples of other types of feedback information are described below in more detail.


The historical information can include previous transactions made by the user and/or other users with demographics similar to the user. The historical transaction information may also include information about where the user makes different types of transactions (e.g., at an establishment's physical site, a physical mobile site, a web site, a mobile device application, etc.).


If the system is a banking system, possible transactions made by the user can include: opening an account, deposit funds (e.g., cash, check, electronic funds), transfer funds (e.g., within or out of the banking system), withdraw funds (e.g., cash, change in specific denominations ($1 bills, $5 bills, quarters, etc.), view information on an account (e.g., checking, savings, line of credit, mortgage, car loan, other loan), pay a bill (e.g., make a one time payment or set up an auto payment), obtain a cashier's check and/or money order, apply for a mortgage or other loan, get an item notarized, request information for an account issue, etc.


For example, historical transaction information for a particular user can indicate that this user usually only uses the banking institution's physical banking machine to withdraw the maximum amount of cash allowed. Thus, once the banking system identifies the user as using one of their physical banking machines, the banking system can suggest that the user wishes to withdraw the maximum amount of cash allowed.


As another example, historical transaction information for a particular user can indicate that this user transfers $500 (using the banking institution's mobile application) into her 20 year old daughter's account on the first of every month. Thus, if the user logs onto the mobile application at the first of the month, it can suggest that the user transfer $500 to her daughter's account.


As a further example, historical transaction information for a particular user can indicate that this user visit's the establishment's web site at the end of the month to pay a car loan. Thus, if the user logs in to the establishment's web site at the end of the month, it can suggest that the user pay the car loan payment.


For example, historical transaction information for users in a person's demographic (e.g., men over 60) can indicate that it is common for users within this demographic withdraw cash every other Friday (e.g., payday). As another example, historical information for users in another person's demographic (e.g., men between 18 and 30) can indicate that it is common for these users to electronically transfer funds (e.g., move money from checking to savings account) and pay bills (e.g., credit card bill, telephone bill) every other Friday (e.g., payday).


The convert voice to image module 115 can translate the voice communicating with the user into one or more images. The translated images can be photo images and/or non-photo images. For example, for elderly people with hearing issues, they may also not be able to read (e.g., in a particular language or in any language). In this case, displaying text may not help and images may be more useful for the user.


In some embodiments, the convert voice to image module 115 can generate photos using a generative adversarial network (GAN). The GAN can be a deep learning model that can translate one or more voice instructions to one or more photo instructions that are easy for the user to understand. In some embodiments, the voice instructions can be translated into text. Then, the GAN can synthesize images from the text. More information on the GAN can be found in the following, which are all herein incorporated by reference:

    • Reed, Scott et al., “Generative Adversarial Text to Image Synthesys,” Proceedings of the 33rd International Conference on Machine Learning (New York, N.Y., USA, 2016).
    • Goodfellow, Ian et al., “Generative Adversarial Nets,” Proceedings of Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS2014) pp. 2672-2680.
    • Apr. 23, 2019 Generative Adversarial Network Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_adversarial_network).


For example, the system can translate the voice saying “click on the green button to approve” into text. The GAN can then translate the text into a photo showing a hand pointing to a green button that has “OK” on it. As another example, the system can translate “show me your debit card or ID” into a photo showing a debit card and driver's license.


In some embodiments, the convert voice to image module 115 can generate photo images and/or non-photo images by recognizing key words in the voice that cause certain pre-determined photo images and/or non-photo images to be displayed. For example, if the convert voice to image module 115 recognizes the key words “show ID”, a screen can be displayed showing a photo image or a non-photo image of a debit card, a credit card, and a driver's license.


The display module 130 can display one or more images representing one or more suggested transactions. In some embodiments, the images can be actual photographs or appear to be photographs (e.g., an image that appears to be a photo of a hand pointing to a green button, the photo generated using a computer). In some embodiments, the images can be non-photographic images (e.g., a computer icon or computer image of a hand pointing to a green button).


Instructions from the user can be accepted based on user interaction with the image. The images can include pictures visualizing the different types of transactions. The display module 130 can also display one or more images (e.g., photo images and/or non-photo images) showing actions the user can take with respect to a suggested transaction (e.g., hand pointing to green button). The display module 130 can also display one or more images showing actions taken by the establishment (e.g., a picture of a receipt when a receipt is being printed). The images can include still images and/or video.


If the system is a banking system, some example transaction images can include: deposit funds (e.g., a picture of putting cash into a piggy bank), transfer funds (e.g., an image of moving cash from one picture of a bank to another picture of a bank)), withdraw funds (e.g., an image of taking cash out of a piggy bank), view information on an account (e.g., an image of a piece of paper with account information on it)), pay a bill (e.g., an image of sending an envelope with money in it), obtain a cashier's check and/or money order (e.g., an image of a cashier's check or money order), apply for a mortgage or other loan (e.g., an image of a house, car, etc.), get an item notarized (e.g., an image of a notary stamp), request information for an account issue (e.g., a question mark over small image of sample account summary), ask a question (e.g., a question mark), etc.


In some aspects of the disclosure, the images can be video images. For example, one or more suggested transaction images can be shown as videos that play once, or over and over until the user chooses a transaction. As another example, the videos can be shown when a user chooses a particular suggested transaction image.


The system can also play audio data while the image data is displayed. For example, data explaining a particular suggested transaction can be played while the image for that suggested transaction is shown.


If multiple transactions are suggested, the transaction can be displayed in order of probability (e.g., with the most probably transaction listed first), and any audio data can be played in the same order the transactions are listed on the screen.


In addition, the system can display text data while the image data is displayed. The text data can be displayed near or on the image.


The feedback module can receive feedback information from or for the user. The feedback information can include: body language information for the user, language spoken by the user, or survey information, or any combination thereof. The feedback module can determine if the body language information and/or the language spoken by the user signifies: an inability to understand the voice, a misunderstanding of the voice, or displeasure with a user experience, or any combination thereof. The feedback module can analyze the body language information in order to identify help information.


The feedback module can determine any difficulty the user has with understanding a transaction option. The feedback module can also analyze the feedback information in order to identify help information.


The feedback module can also help determine any preferences the user has for GAN translated photographic image data. For example, the feedback module can receive feedback information related to the appearance of GAN translated photographic image data. The feedback information can include: body language information for the user, language spoken by the user, or survey information, or any combination thereof. This feedback information can be stored and applied to generate GAN translated photographic image data according to the user's preferences when the user returns. The feedback information can include preferences related to: color, template, outline, font, or font size, or any combination thereof. Using user feedback on a photo showed to a user, the preferences of that user can be determined. For example, it can be determined that general users (or users in a certain demographic, or a particular user) tend to like photos better that have: dark colors rather than light colors, no green and/or blue colors, content focused at the center (as opposed to spread-out content).


In some embodiments, training data can be restricted to generate synthetic images based on the user preferences. For example, using the example feedback provided above, the system can only select synthetic images with dark colors, simple content focused at the center of the screen, a big font size, etc. This information can train the GAN model. Thus, when the user returns to the bank, the system can apply the GAN model.



FIG. 2 is another diagram of an illustrative system 200 for providing a suggested transaction, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, a client 260 can access (e.g., over a network 150 using server(s) 110) data representing transactions between customers and establishments stored in a database 120. The database 120 can store instructions in one or more memories.



FIG. 3 is a flow diagram 300 showing processing that may occur within the system of FIG. 1 and/or FIG. 2, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In step 301, the process can start. In step 315, it can be determined if a user can be identified. If not, in step 320, the process can end. If yes, in step 340, user information can be found. In step 345, it can be determined if historical data for the identified user can be found. If not, the process can move to 362. If yes, the process can move to step 355, where suggested transaction options and/or help information can be determined. In 360, suggested transaction options can be displayed using image (e.g., photo image and/or non-photo image) data. In 362, a voice (e.g., live or recorded) interacting with the user can be translated to image (e.g., photo image and/or non-photo image) data. In 365, instructions from the user can be obtained. In 370, feedback from the user can be obtained. In 375, the process can end.



FIG. 4 is a flow diagram showing additional processing that may occur in step 315 of flow diagram 300 of FIG. 3, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In 410, physiological information can be obtained from the user. In 420, behavioral information can be obtained from the user. In 430, the user can be asked to self-identify. In 440, the user can be identified using the physiological, behavioral or self-identified information.



FIG. 5 is a flow diagram showing additional processing that may occur in step 365 of flow diagram 300 of FIG. 3, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In step 510, survey information can be obtained from the user. In step 520, body language can be obtained from the user. In step 530, language can be obtained from the user. In 540, the survey information, the body language information, and/or the language information can be analyzed. In 550, the analyzed survey information, the body language information, and/or the language information can be analyzed as feedback information.


In some aspects of the disclosure the transaction data can include many different properties related to a transaction. This may include: a customer name, a customer ID (e.g., anonymous or not) that allows identification of a person who is making a purchase and what other purchases they have made before and after that transaction, merchant, merchant ID (e.g., anonymous or not), merchant name, location of merchant, amount of the purchase, or how a purchase was made (e.g., in person, online, with APPLE PAY, with card dip, with card swipe, etc.), or any combination thereof. The confluence of seeing a multitude of transaction data may provide for powerful insights.
