Solution Overview

Problem

Current AI chatbots face challenges in accurately detecting potential mental health conditions from user interactions, as they struggle to determine mismatches between user sentiment and life situation polarity, particularly in high-gravity situations, which can indicate the need for human intervention.

Innovation Solution

A processor-implemented method using AI models for sentiment detection and intent recognition to semantically match user statements with life situations, assigning confidence scores and determining gravity and polarity, allowing for the identification of mismatches between user sentiment and life situation polarity, especially in high-gravity scenarios.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If AI chatbot uses basic sentiment analysis, then the system complexity is low, but the accuracy in detecting mental health conditions is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy in detecting mental health conditionsVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the detection process into multiple independent AI models: a sentiment analysis model that processes user emotions, an intent recognition model that identifies life situations, and a mismatch detection model that compares sentiment polarity with situation polarity. Each model focuses on a specific aspect, improving overall detection accuracy while maintaining manageable complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system adds a new dimension of analysis by introducing the concept of 'polarity mismatch' between sentiment and life situation. Instead of only analyzing sentiment or situation separately, the system evaluates the relationship and consistency between them, creating a multi-dimensional detection framework that significantly improves mental health condition identification accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Measurement precision

If AI chatbot implements comprehensive sentiment and intent analysis, then detection accuracy improves, but computational resources and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidcomputational resources
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary classification by first analyzing sentiment polarity and life situation polarity separately using specialized AI models. Only after these preliminary analyses are complete does the system proceed to the mismatch detection stage. This staged approach allows computational resources to be allocated efficiently, with each model optimized for its specific task, reducing overall computational burden while maintaining high detection accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If AI chatbot relies on human experts for mental health assessment, then accuracy is high, but availability and scalability are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveavailability and scalabilityVSAvoiddetection accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system creates an artificial intelligence copy of the mental health assessment process that mirrors the diagnostic reasoning of human experts. By training AI models on extensive datasets of mental health conversations and outcomes, the system replicates expert-level detection capabilities at scale, making professional-grade assessment available 24/7 without the constraints of human expert availability.

Inventive Principle:

4Speed

If AI chatbot uses simple sentiment classification, then processing speed is fast, but ability to identify high-gravity situations is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocessing speedVSAvoidability to identify high-gravity situations
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the analysis into parallel processing streams: one stream quickly classifies sentiment polarity using a optimized sentiment model, while another stream independently analyzes life situation polarity using an intent recognition model. Both streams operate simultaneously and feed into the mismatch detection module, maintaining fast processing speed while achieving comprehensive analysis capability for identifying high-gravity situations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A processor-implemented method for automatically determining a mismatch between a sentiment and a polarity of a life situation using an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model during a conversation with an AI chatbot is provided. The method includes (i) determining at least one sentiment of the user using a sentiment detecting AI model, (ii) predicting life situation from the conversation between the AI chatbot and the user using an intent recognition AI model, (ii) determining, a gravity and a polarity of the life situation using a life events scale, (iii) comparing the at least one sentiment of the user to the polarity of the life situation when the life situation is determined to the high gravity, and (iv) automatically determining the mismatch between the at least one sentiment of the user and the polarity of the at least one life situation of the high gravity situation.
