Solution Overview

Problem

Existing chat messaging systems fail to effectively identify and incorporate relevant users into chat communication groups, leading to inefficiencies and the need for new users to sift through large volumes of messages to catch up on discussions.

Innovation Solution

A machine learning model generates chat summaries based on group messages, identifying relevant users and providing summaries to new users to facilitate quicker integration into ongoing discussions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If chat communication groups are expanded to include more relevant users, then the productivity and comprehensiveness of discussions are improved, but the complexity of managing and identifying relevant users increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvediscussion efficiencyVSAvoiduser identification complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically identifies relevant users and generates chat summaries without requiring manual intervention from existing members. The machine learning model autonomously analyzes chat context, matches it with user profiles, and initiates expansions, making the system self-serve the complexity management function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

A machine learning model acts as an intermediary between the chat communication system and user identification processes. This intermediary automatically analyzes chat context, matches it with user profiles, and identifies relevant users, thereby reducing the complexity burden on human users and system administrators.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Quantity of substance

If new users join existing chat groups, then the quantity of participants increases, but the time required for new users to catch up on discussions increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenumber of participantsVSAvoidtime to catch up on discussions
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system generates comprehensive chat summaries in advance before new users need to catch up. These summaries are prepared by analyzing existing chat context and are immediately available when new users join, eliminating the time-consuming task of reading through historical messages.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system extracts and isolates the essential information from large volumes of chat messages by generating condensed summaries. This extraction process separates the critical discussion points from the bulk of conversation history, allowing new users to access only the most relevant information quickly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Ease of operation

If chat summaries are generated and presented to new users, then the ease of operation for new users is improved, but the processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenew user integration easeVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system generates chat summaries tailored to the specific needs and interests of individual new users based on their profiles. Rather than providing a generic summary, the system customizes the content to match local quality requirements of each user, improving relevance while managing processing efficiency through targeted analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

Systems and methods for expanding chat communication groups based on a chat context are provided. In an example, a chat and video conference provider establishes a first chat communication group for exchanging chat messages between a plurality of client devices and generates a chat summary for a subset of the chat messages within the first chat communication group. The chat and video conference provider determines a relevant user of the first chat communication group based on the chat summary and provides a recommendation for inviting the relevant user a second chat communication group. The chat and video conference provider establishes the second chat communication group and presents the chat summary in the second chat communication group in response to the relevant user joining the second chat communication group.
