Electronic Device Retrieval Place Information Validation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electronic devices require users to input advanced information to retrieve accurate position information, often resulting in general or outdated information, leading to user confusion and inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device method and apparatus that determines a retrieval place using various content information types (keywords, images, text, etc.) and extracts relevant information, validating it against databases and social networks to provide accurate and up-to-date position information, including navigation and connection details.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If advance information regarding retrieval place is input by user, then accurate position information can be received, but user operation complexity increases and convenience decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic device automatically extracts retrieval place information from accessed content without requiring user input. The device analyzes the content being accessed (blogs, web pages, images) and autonomously identifies and extracts location information, allowing the system to serve itself rather than requiring manual user provision of retrieval place data.
Solution Approach 2:
The system pre-extracts and stores position information from various content sources (blogs, web pages, images) in advance. When a user accesses content, the retrieval place information has already been extracted and is ready for immediate use, eliminating the need for real-time user input or processing delays.
2Loss of information
If general information is provided without validation, then information completeness is maintained, but information reliability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a validation feedback mechanism where extracted position information is verified against multiple data sources including databases and social network information. The device cross-checks extracted location data with stored database entries and social media check-ins to confirm accuracy, providing feedback loops that ensure both completeness and reliability of the provided information.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary validation layer between content extraction and information provision. This intermediary component acts as a mediator that verifies extracted position information against multiple sources (databases, social networks) before presenting the final result to the user, ensuring both completeness and reliability without requiring user involvement in the validation process.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple information sources are analyzed, then information diversity increases, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-processes and extracts position information from multiple content sources (blogs, web pages, images, social media) in advance and stores this extracted information in a database. When a user needs retrieval place information, the system quickly queries the pre-processed database rather than analyzing multiple sources in real-time, thus providing diverse information sources with minimal processing delay.
4Ease of operation
If only schematic images are used for retrieval, then ease of operation improves, but measurement precision of position information deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary image analysis component that processes schematic images and extracts location information from them. This intermediary translates simple visual inputs (schematic images without detailed markers) into accurate position data by analyzing visual features and cross-referencing with database information, enabling users to retrieve precise location information through simple image-based operations.
Data Source
AI summary
An electronic device and a method for providing related information regarding a retrieval place are provided. The method includes determining a retrieval place using at least one contents information, extracting information related to the determined retrieval place, and providing the information related to the determined retrieval place by determining a validity of the extracted information related to the determined retrieval place.
