Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing artificial intelligence-based expert systems for new drug development face challenges in accurately responding to complex search situations due to the difficulty in constructing queries that reflect context and ambiguity in sentence-type queries, leading to inaccurate search results.
Innovation Solution
A diagram-based ideation platform apparatus and method using a C-K canvas, which divides concepts and knowledge into separate spaces and connects them through a chaining process, allowing for the diagrammatic definition of complex problem-solving contexts and facilitating solution search through a C-K canvas module, card management, and case management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If sentence-type queries are used in expert systems, then the system can operate with a simple query interface, but the accuracy of search results deteriorates due to ambiguity and difficulty in constructing queries that reflect complex contexts
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the query construction process into multiple dimensions (e.g., disease, compound, mechanism, indication) that can be independently selected and combined. This allows users to build complex queries through modular dimension selection rather than constructing ambiguous sentences, thereby maintaining ease of operation while improving search accuracy through structured, unambiguous query formulation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the expert system uses a multi-dimensional data structure, then it can respond to multiple search situations, but the difficulty of constructing queries that reflect complex contexts increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the complex multi-dimensional query construction problem into a simpler dimensional selection process. Instead of requiring users to construct sentences that navigate multiple dimensions simultaneously, the system presents predefined dimensional categories (disease, compound, mechanism, etc.) that users can independently select and combine, effectively adding a structural dimension to query construction that simplifies the process while maintaining versatility.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple queries for each dimension are written and searched separately, then the expert system can respond to multiple search situations and relieve users' trouble, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple dimensional queries into a unified search framework. Instead of requiring separate search operations for each dimension, the system integrates disease, compound, mechanism, and other dimensional parameters into a single coordinated query execution process, reducing system complexity while maintaining the ability to handle multiple search situations through unified dimensional coordination.
