Solution Overview

Problem

Existing customer satisfaction analysis and prediction systems are inefficient in providing effective strategies to improve customer experience, as they are primarily software-driven and digitalized, failing to realize significant improvements in decision-making information and are unable to account for the stochasticity and long-term mechanisms of customer responses.

Innovation Solution

A decision-making solution utilizing a trained decision model that determines target decisions based on attribute information and current perception categories, incorporating a causal model to predict perception category transitions and reward functions, enabling more accurate and long-term customer experience management.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional questionnaire-based satisfaction surveys are used, then customer satisfaction can be evaluated, but the process is time-consuming and laborious

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustomer satisfaction evaluationVSAvoidsurvey time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical questionnaire-based survey system with an automated machine learning system that processes customer interaction data (calls, messages, transactions) to automatically evaluate satisfaction levels, eliminating manual survey administration while maintaining measurement capability

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables self-service evaluation by automatically collecting and analyzing customer interaction data without requiring active customer participation in surveys, allowing the system to autonomously generate satisfaction metrics from existing operational data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Measurement precision

If traditional satisfaction surveys are used, then immediate satisfaction can be measured, but long-term satisfaction maintenance strategies cannot be provided

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesatisfaction measurementVSAvoidstrategic guidance capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic decision models that adapt to changing customer states and contexts, enabling the system to provide evolving strategic recommendations for both immediate and long-term satisfaction management rather than static survey results

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback loops where machine learning models continuously learn from customer interaction outcomes and satisfaction measurements, enabling iterative improvement of strategic recommendations for long-term satisfaction maintenance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If software-driven digitalized systems are used for customer experience management, then data processing efficiency is improved, but the systems fail to account for stochasticity and long-term mechanisms of customer responses

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata processing efficiencyVSAvoiddecision-making accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the fundamental parameters of the system by transitioning from deterministic software algorithms to probabilistic machine learning models that incorporate stochasticity, allowing the system to capture the inherent randomness in customer responses while maintaining computational efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
