Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems for empowerment through conversation only consider empowerment parameters and fail to account for other influencing parameters like continuity parameters, limiting the effectiveness of intellectual ability and mental status improvement.

Innovation Solution

A system that includes a computer with a processor and interface, measuring multiple types of signals to calculate conversation parameters of various attributes, selecting conversation information based on these parameters, and outputting it to the user to optimize empowerment effects.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If conversation information is selected only on the basis of empowerment parameters, then the system can simplify the selection process, but the empowerment effect is limited because influence from continuity parameters is not taken into consideration

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveparameter selection complexityVSAvoidempowerment effect
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system changes from considering only empowerment parameters to considering both empowerment parameters and continuity parameters. The processor calculates multiple types of parameters (empowerment parameters evaluating intellectual ability and mental status, and continuity parameters evaluating continuation desire) and selectively uses appropriate parameters based on the current situation to determine conversation information, thereby improving empowerment effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If multiple types of signals are measured and multiple conversation parameters are calculated, then the system can improve empowerment effectiveness, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveempowerment effectVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments parameters into different categories: empowerment parameters (evaluating intellectual ability and mental status) and continuity parameters (evaluating continuation desire such as attentional state and motivation). This segmentation allows the system to measure multiple types of signals and calculate multiple conversation parameters in an organized manner, improving empowerment effectiveness while managing system complexity through structured parameter classification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Productivity

If the system selectively determines conversation information based on multiple parameter attributes, then optimal conversation information can be presented, but the processing time and computational load increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveempowerment efficiencyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically selects which parameters to use based on the current situation. The processor calculates both empowerment parameters and continuity parameters, then selectively determines conversation information by choosing the appropriate parameter type according to the user's current state and the conversation context. This dynamic parameter selection allows the system to present optimal conversation information while managing processing time and computational load.

Inventive Principle:
