Solution Overview

Problem

Current recommendation systems in the creative arts, such as music, books, and visual arts, often fail to provide meaningful and satisfactory recommendations due to limited granularity, relying on collaborative or content-based filtering methods that do not fully capture user preferences and context.

Innovation Solution

A Creative Arts Classification/Evaluation and Recommendation System that utilizes Key Qualitative Criteria and Key Emotive Features, employing a proprietary algorithm and database to generate recommendations that consider user profiles, immediate and long-term preferences, context, and situation, offering a broader range of high-quality suggestions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If collaborative filtering or content-based filtering methods are used, then recommendations can be generated, but the granularity is limited and the recommendations are not truly meaningful and satisfactory

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the recommendation system into multiple independent modules: collaborative filtering module, content-based filtering module, and user profile module. Each module operates with specific algorithms and data structures, allowing the system to process different types of information separately and combine results for more accurate recommendations without overwhelming complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of user profile analysis that goes beyond traditional collaborative or content-based filtering. By incorporating user demographics, preferences, and behavior patterns as separate analytical dimensions, the system achieves deeper granularity and more meaningful recommendations

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If traditional recommendation systems are used, then some recommendations are provided, but they fail to capture user preferences and context

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser preference captureVSAvoidcontext information loss
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by building comprehensive user profiles in advance, collecting and analyzing user demographics, preferences, and behavior patterns before recommendation generation. This pre-processing ensures that when recommendations are made, the system already has detailed context about user preferences and can adapt accordingly

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where user interactions with recommendations (clicks, purchases, ratings) are continuously fed back into the user profile and preference models. This closed-loop feedback enables the system to refine its understanding of user preferences over time and adjust recommendations based on evolving context

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

Users of electronic audio and video playback devices have become familiar with listening and viewing media from stored memory. Music may be listened to and any art may be viewed including television, motion pictures, still images and any other copyrightable works of audible or visual art, the types of which are vast. Traditional indexing criteria for such stored memory may include artist or author identification, track or work of art title, genre, era or origin, style of art, and other criteria pertaining to the work itself. According to the present invention, media elements stored in memory may now be characterized by entering criteria based on the qualitative attributes and emotive features ascertained upon playback or subsequent evaluation which are then associated with each stored audio, video, image or other file, for subsequent indexing, searching and recommendation operations.
