Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems lack effective methods for enabling intelligent avatars to operate autonomously in interactive environments without direct human control, as research has not adequately addressed how to capture, analyze, and apply user behavior data for real-time autonomous operation.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a knowledge engine and an action engine that continuously monitors user responses, builds associations, and applies pattern analysis to control avatar actions based on user behavior metrics, allowing avatars to operate autonomously by mimicking user responses in various interactive environments.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Extent of automation

If traditional autonomous operation methods are used for avatars, then basic automation can be achieved, but the avatars cannot effectively operate autonomously without direct human control and lack the ability to apply user behavior data in real-time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautonomous operation capabilityVSAvoideffective operation without human control
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system continuously monitors user responses to events in the interactive environment and feeds this information back to the knowledge engine. The knowledge engine uses this feedback to update associations and refine the avatar's autonomous decision-making, enabling the avatar to learn from and adapt to user behavior patterns over time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The avatar operates autonomously by self-managing its actions based on the knowledge base and associations built from user behavior data. The system enables the avatar to independently analyze events, determine appropriate responses, and execute actions without requiring direct human control, while continuously improving through self-learning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive user behavior monitoring and analysis systems are implemented, then accurate avatar control can be achieved, but the system complexity increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser response analysis accuracyVSAvoidsystem structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system is divided into distinct functional modules: an event monitoring component that detects events, a knowledge engine that analyzes user responses and builds associations, and an action engine that executes avatar actions. This segmentation allows each component to specialize in specific tasks, improving analysis accuracy while managing complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The knowledge engine acts as an intermediary between the monitoring system and the avatar control system. It processes raw user response data, builds associations, and translates this knowledge into actionable decisions for the avatar, simplifying the overall system architecture while maintaining high measurement precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Ease of operation

If real-time analysis of user behavior data is performed, then accurate avatar responses can be generated, but the processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveavatar response accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The knowledge engine pre-processes user responses and builds associations during periods when the user is actively controlling the avatar. This preliminary action stores processed knowledge in advance, so that when the avatar operates autonomously, it can quickly retrieve and apply pre-analyzed associations without requiring intensive real-time computation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the operational parameters of data processing between different modes: during user-controlled operation, it performs comprehensive real-time analysis to build associations, while during autonomous operation, it uses pre-processed associations with reduced computational requirements, thereby balancing accuracy with processing time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
