Solution Overview

Problem

Current financial data processing systems lack effective methods for early detection of potential derogatory or delinquent behaviors in consumer accounts, which can lead to delayed intervention and increased risks for financial institutions.

Innovation Solution

A computerized method and system utilizing data migration to track consumer account attributes and scores over time, comparing output values across periods to identify changes that meet specified thresholds, allowing for early warning signs of potential behaviors through customizable attribute tracking and scoring.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional financial data processing systems are used, then data processing is simple, but early detection of potential derogatory or delinquent behaviors is delayed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveearly detection capabilityVSAvoiddetection delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by continuously monitoring and calculating consumer attributes in advance, establishing baseline values and thresholds before derogatory behaviors occur. This allows the system to detect early warning signs proactively rather than reactively, resolving the contradiction between simple processing and early detection capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms by comparing current attribute values against historical baselines and threshold values, generating alerts when deviations indicate potential derogatory behaviors. This continuous feedback loop enables timely detection while maintaining systematic processing, addressing both the reliability and time loss concerns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive consumer attributes are tracked and analyzed, then detection accuracy improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebehavior detection accuracyVSAvoiddata processing system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex task of detecting derogatory behaviors into multiple independent attribute calculations (e.g., payment patterns, credit utilization, account status). Each attribute is calculated and monitored separately against its own threshold, simplifying the overall system architecture while maintaining high detection accuracy through comprehensive coverage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes parameters by establishing threshold values and baseline attributes that transform complex consumer behavior data into interpretable metrics. By monitoring changes in these parameterized attributes rather than raw data, the system achieves high measurement precision without proportionally increasing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If data migration and historical comparison are implemented, then early warning detection improves, but processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveearly warning accuracyVSAvoiddata processing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential baseline attribute values and threshold criteria from historical data, storing only the necessary reference information needed for comparison. This selective extraction approach enables accurate early warning detection by maintaining relevant historical context while minimizing the computational burden of processing and storing complete historical datasets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
