Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems that recommend items to vehicle users based on driving behaviors often overwhelm users with multiple recommendations, leading to user annoyance and decreased engagement with driving diagnosis features.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device and method that acquire driving information, extract predetermined behaviors, determine a single recommended item based on the degree of deviation from standard driving states, and transmit this information to the user's terminal, thereby reducing the number of recommended items and enhancing user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple items are recommended to users based on driving behaviors, then comprehensive coverage of driving issues is improved, but user annoyance increases and engagement decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive coverage of driving issuesVSAvoiduser engagement
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the most significant driving behavior issue from multiple detected behaviors, presenting a single prioritized recommendation rather than overwhelming users with all detected issues. This selective extraction maintains comprehensive analysis while improving user experience by focusing on the most critical deviation from standard driving.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameter of recommendation quantity from multiple items to a single item, and introduces a prioritization parameter based on degree of deviation. This transforms the recommendation system from a comprehensive but overwhelming list to a focused, prioritized suggestion that maintains reliability while improving ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If all detected driving behavior deviations are addressed with recommendations, then thorough diagnosis is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethorough diagnosisVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the top-priority driving behavior deviation from the complete set of detected behaviors, reducing the output from comprehensive to selective. This maintains thorough diagnostic capability while simplifying the recommendation system by focusing resources on the most significant issue.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments the comprehensive driving behavior analysis into prioritized levels, with only the highest-priority deviation receiving a recommendation. This segmentation allows thorough diagnosis to occur internally while presenting a simplified, less complex output to users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Loss of information

If multiple recommendations are provided to users, then completeness of information is improved, but user annoyance increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of informationVSAvoiduser annoyance
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the single most important driving behavior deviation from the complete information set, presenting only the critical issue that requires user attention. This extraction maintains information completeness for diagnostic purposes while reducing user annoyance by eliminating overwhelming multiple recommendations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the information presentation parameter from multiple recommendations to a single prioritized recommendation, transforming complete but overwhelming information into focused, actionable advice that reduces user annoyance while maintaining diagnostic completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

An information processing device includes a processor configured to execute: acquiring information related to driving of a user of a vehicle during a predetermined period; extracting one or more predetermined behaviors according to the acquired information related to the driving; determining one or more first items to be recommended to the user according to degrees of deviation from standard states of the one or more predetermined behaviors corresponding to the respective extracted one or more predetermined behaviors; and transmitting information related to the first items to a terminal of the user.
