Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If avatars are restricted to predefined activities, then system complexity is reduced and ease of manufacture is improved, but user experience and adaptability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of avatar creationVSAvoidavatar activity flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses image-to-image translation models (pix2pix, cycle GAN) to copy and transform user-uploaded images into animated character representations. This allows the system to generate customizable avatars without manual creation processes, maintaining ease of manufacture while enabling diverse character designs that can potentially perform various activities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs diffusion models and generative adversarial networks to dynamically generate and transform character parameters (visual appearance, expressions, animations) based on user inputs and platform context. This enables avatars to adapt their appearance and behavior dynamically while maintaining a relatively simple underlying system architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If dynamic and personalized character interactions are implemented, then user experience and engagement are improved, but system complexity and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-trains diffusion models, GANs, and pix2pix models with large datasets of character images, expressions, and animations before deployment. This preliminary training enables the models to generate personalized character interactions in real-time without requiring complex runtime processing, thus improving user engagement while managing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces AI models (diffusion models, GANs, pix2pix) as intermediaries between user inputs and character generation. These intermediary models handle the complex computational transformations, allowing the rest of the system to remain relatively simple while still delivering personalized and dynamic character interactions that enhance user engagement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If AI models are used to generate characters in real-time, then adaptability and personalization are improved, but processing time and computational energy increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharacter customizationVSAvoidcharacter generation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs extensive model training and parameter optimization in advance, storing pre-computed model weights and configurations. When generating characters in real-time, the system only needs to execute inference with these pre-trained models, significantly reducing generation time while maintaining high adaptability and personalization capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic character generation where the same base models can rapidly adapt to different user inputs by adjusting parameters and conditions during inference. This dynamic approach allows the system to maintain high customization capability while keeping generation time acceptable through efficient model architecture and optimization techniques.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
