Solution Overview

Problem

Users face inefficiencies in accessing relevant data from vast amounts of information on social media and the internet due to the need to sift through irrelevant content, wasting time and computing resources.

Innovation Solution

A system that classifies and filters data by categorizing content segments, correlating them with user preferences, assigning weights, and masking low-priority content, using machine learning models and user activity to optimize presentation of high-value content.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If users access vast amounts of data on social media and the internet, then information availability is improved, but time consumption and system resource usage increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation availabilityVSAvoidtime consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts and filters only the relevant content portions from vast data sets based on user preferences and classification criteria, presenting selectively filtered information rather than requiring users to sift through all available data, thus reducing time consumption while maintaining information availability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments data into content portions based on classification dimensions and user preferences, allowing users to access only the relevant segments rather than the entire data set, thereby reducing time and resource usage while maintaining comprehensive information access

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If users review all available data, then completeness of information is improved, but system resource usage increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidsystem resource usage
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different quality levels to different content portions based on their relevance to user preferences, presenting high-quality detailed information for relevant content while providing summarized or filtered views for less relevant content, maintaining information completeness while reducing overall system resource usage

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system automatically classifies and filters data based on pre-established user preferences and classification dimensions, performing the filtering function autonomously without requiring user manual review of all data, thus maintaining information completeness while significantly reducing system resource consumption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Classifying and filtering data by categorizing a portion of a data segment according to the content of the portion, correlating each portion with a user content preference dictionary, assigning a content weight to each portion according to the correlation, and masking content portions having a weight below a threshold value.
