Automatic Document Download via Behavioral Probability Prediction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices do not efficiently transmit documents attached to text messages to portable devices, requiring recipients to manually download them, which can be inconvenient and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A method that determines a probability value based on recipient behavior and document relevance, automatically downloading and storing documents in a shared database, and including a link in the message, ensuring documents are available on the portable device without requiring manual download.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If documents are attached to text messages for transmission, then document sharing capability is improved, but automatic download functionality is lacking requiring manual intervention
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by analyzing recipient behavior patterns before the actual document transmission occurs. It pre-determines the likelihood of document opening based on historical data, and automatically initiates document download to the recipient's device before they manually request it, thus resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and automation extent
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing documents to automatically download to recipient devices based on behavioral analysis without requiring manual intervention from the recipient. The system serves itself by autonomously determining when and where to deliver documents, improving both automation extent and document accessibility
2Ease of operation
If documents are automatically downloaded to portable devices, then document accessibility is improved, but system complexity increases due to behavioral analysis requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies universality by using a multi-functional approach where the same behavioral analysis infrastructure serves multiple purposes: it analyzes recipient behavior patterns, determines document opening likelihood, and guides automatic document delivery decisions. This consolidates complexity into a single universal system rather than requiring separate mechanisms for each function, thus improving document accessibility while managing system complexity
3Measurement precision
If behavioral data is collected and analyzed to determine download probability, then document delivery accuracy is improved, but data processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by continuously collecting and pre-processing behavioral data in the background before actual document transmission decisions are needed. It maintains updated behavioral profiles and probability calculations ready for immediate use, thus improving measurement precision of document opening probability while minimizing data processing time during actual transmission
Solution Approach 2:
The system ensures continuity of useful action by continuously analyzing behavioral data in real-time as interactions occur, rather than batch-processing historical data. This ongoing analysis maintains up-to-date probability predictions without requiring extensive retroactive processing, thus improving measurement precision while reducing time loss

AI summary
A method and electronic device are provided to determine that a text-based message to be sent from a sender to a recipient includes a document attached thereto, determine a probability value for a portable electronic device associated with the recipient based at least on behavioural data associated with the recipient, in response to determining that the probability value meets a threshold, cause the portable electronic device to automatically download the document to a memory of the portable electronic device associated with the recipient, and transmit the text-based message.
