Solution Overview

Problem

Business operators face challenges in alleviating the burden of analyzing abnormalities in information processing systems, as determining additional analysis techniques requires significant effort and can be difficult even when using pre-defined templates.

Innovation Solution

An analysis method that accumulates and processes analysis reports to identify patterns, extracts analysis items and texts, and associates them with corresponding techniques, allowing for the automatic selection of additional analysis techniques based on pattern frequencies and commonalities across reports.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If pre-defined templates are used for analysis, then analysis accuracy consistency is improved, but the burden of determining additional analysis techniques increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveanalysis accuracy consistencyVSAvoidburden of determining additional analysis techniques

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically determines additional analysis techniques by analyzing patterns in accumulated analysis reports, eliminating the need for operators to manually select techniques. The analysis target itself serves to generate the information needed for technique selection through automated pattern recognition.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Analysis reports are accumulated and patterns are learned in advance from historical data. When a new analysis is performed, the system has already prepared pattern information from previous reports, enabling quick automatic selection of additional analysis techniques without requiring operator intervention at the time of analysis.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If manual determination of additional analysis techniques is performed, then analysis completeness is improved, but workload increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveanalysis completenessVSAvoidworkload

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses feedback from accumulated analysis reports to automatically determine additional analysis techniques. Patterns learned from historical analysis results are fed back into the system to guide subsequent technique selection, improving completeness while reducing manual workload.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The manual mechanical process of determining additional analysis techniques is replaced with an automated information processing system. The system extracts patterns from text data and automatically selects techniques, substituting human cognitive work with computational processes.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Measurement precision

If pattern accumulation from multiple reports is performed, then automatic technique selection accuracy is improved, but data processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveautomatic technique selection accuracyVSAvoiddata processing complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The data processing is segmented into distinct functional modules: extraction processing separates analysis items and texts from reports, identification processing matches texts to analysis techniques, and pattern information generation creates structured representations. This segmentation manages complexity while improving accuracy.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Pattern information serves as an intermediary data structure between raw analysis reports and technique selection decisions. The system extracts patterns from reports, stores them as structured pattern information, and uses this intermediary representation to automatically determine additional techniques, simplifying the overall process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
