Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If data analysis systems process large datasets with thousands or millions of records, then comprehensive data coverage is improved, but analysis efficiency and speed deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata volumeVSAvoidanalysis speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments large datasets into smaller groups based on common attributes or characteristics. This allows the system to process and analyze subsets of data more efficiently while maintaining comprehensive coverage of the entire dataset through systematic grouping and aggregation of results.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of analysis by grouping data items according to shared attributes, transforming the analysis from individual record processing to aggregate-level analysis. This dimensional shift enables faster processing while preserving the ability to derive meaningful conclusions from the complete dataset.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If traditional data analysis methods are used on large datasets, then complete data examination is achieved, but resource consumption and time requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanalysis completenessVSAvoidanalysis time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary grouping and aggregation of data items based on common attributes before conducting detailed analysis. This preliminary organization reduces the computational burden during the actual analysis phase, enabling complete examination of all data with reduced time and resource requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates aggregated representations or summaries of data groups that capture essential characteristics without requiring processing of every individual record. These aggregated copies enable comprehensive analysis at reduced computational cost while maintaining analysis completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Measurement precision

If individual data item probabilities are analyzed in isolation, then detailed item-level insights are obtained, but systemic and aggregate risks remain undetected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveitem-level accuracyVSAvoidaggregate risk information
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges individual data item probabilities by grouping items with common attributes and calculating aggregate probabilities for each group. This combining process preserves item-level probability information while simultaneously revealing systemic patterns and aggregate risks that would be invisible in isolated analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds an aggregate level dimension to the analysis by computing probabilities at both individual item level and group level. This multi-dimensional approach maintains precision for individual items while simultaneously providing visibility into systemic risks through aggregate measurements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

Computer-implemented systems and methods are disclosed for automatically aggregating, analyzing, and presenting probabilities associated with data items. Data items may be associated with probabilities or risks, and the data items may have various characteristics. A grouping of data items may be determined based on these characteristics, and probabilities within groups of data items may be aggregated and analyzed. Aggregated probabilities may be used to determine incremental probabilities for individual data items, to assess cumulative risk associated with a group of data items, and to analyze probabilities associated with a particular data item group. User interfaces may be generated to facilitate selection and grouping of data items, selection of risk models, and analysis of aggregate probabilities.
