Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data conversion and distribution systems face challenges in generating accurate projections and statistical analyses for data classes with sparse electronic data, as they require large amounts of historical data, which is often unavailable, leading to inaccurate and unreliable results.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a data subscription unit and a virtual machine that processes and unifies data from various sources, formats, and frequencies, using statistical algorithms to generate sensitivities and projections for sparse data classes, ensuring timely and accurate analysis.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional projection systems are used with sparse data, then the system can operate with limited historical data, but the accuracy and reliability of projections deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprojection accuracyVSAvoidhistorical data volume
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple data sources including alternative data sources (social media, news, weather) with traditional historical data to create a unified dataset. This merging allows the system to generate accurate projections even when traditional historical data is sparse, directly resolving the contradiction between projection accuracy and historical data volume requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces machine learning models and statistical algorithms as intermediaries between raw data and projections. These intermediaries process and enrich sparse data by identifying patterns, filling gaps, and generating synthetic data points, thereby improving projection accuracy without requiring large volumes of historical data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Quantity of substance

If data from multiple sources with different formats is aggregated, then the quantity of available data increases, but the complexity of data processing increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata volumeVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the data processing workflow into distinct modules: data collection from multiple sources, format standardization, data cleaning, feature extraction, and projection generation. Each module handles specific tasks independently, reducing overall processing complexity while maintaining the ability to aggregate diverse data sources

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms diverse data formats into a unified parameter structure through standardized schemas and feature engineering. By converting different data types (text, numerical, categorical) into consistent parameter formats, the system enables efficient processing of aggregated data from multiple sources without proportionally increasing complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
