Solution Overview

Problem

The influx of user-generated digital content, such as games, videos, and music, often results in low quality due to lack of professional design and quality control, leading to a time-consuming moderation process that is unmanageable with the high volume of content generated daily.

Innovation Solution

A content generation guidance system and method that uses a processing device and server to analyze user-generated content, identify correlations between aspects and ratings, and provide feedback for improvement, employing machine learning or artificial intelligence to assist users in enhancing content quality through suggestions for modification.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If user-generated content is allowed without moderation, then content quantity increases, but content quality deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent quantityVSAvoidcontent quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables content to self-rate through automated analysis. Machine learning models automatically evaluate user-generated content and assign quality ratings without human intervention, allowing the platform to maintain high content quantity while ensuring quality through autonomous evaluation mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Manual moderation processes are replaced with automated machine learning systems. The mechanical human review process is substituted with algorithmic content analysis that can process vast amounts of content rapidly, maintaining quality control while enabling unlimited content submission.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Manufacturing precision

If manual moderation is implemented, then content quality improves, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent qualityVSAvoidmoderation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The moderation system operates autonomously without requiring human time investment. Automated machine learning models continuously evaluate content in real-time, eliminating the time loss associated with manual review while maintaining consistent quality standards.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Content moderation occurs continuously and automatically as content is uploaded or published. The system provides uninterrupted quality evaluation without the delays inherent in manual processes, ensuring every piece of content is assessed immediately and consistently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

3Manufacturing precision

If professional design processes are used, then content quality improves, but production complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent qualityVSAvoidproduction complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements automated feedback loops where machine learning models analyze content and provide quality ratings. This feedback mechanism guides content improvement without requiring complex professional design processes, simplifying production while maintaining quality through data-driven insights.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

Quality assessment transitions from subjective professional evaluation to objective parameter-based measurement. The system evaluates content based on quantifiable metrics and patterns recognized by machine learning models, replacing complex professional judgment with measurable parameters that simplify the evaluation process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

A content-generation guidance system for assisting a user in generating digital content, the system comprising a content analysis unit operable to analyse a first set of pre-existing user-generated content to identify one or more aspects of the content, a correlation identification unit operable to identify a correlation between the one or more identified aspects of the first set of content and user ratings of that content, and a content modification unit operable, when a user is generating new digital content, to identify one or more aspects of the new digital content for modification in dependence upon the identified correlation or correlations.
