Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional recommendation systems for live streaming fail to customize content recommendations based on user preferences, leading to biased exposure towards popular distributors and potential user boredom, as they do not dynamically update content offerings.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that identify live streaming programs based on user attributes and tags, generating subsets using different criteria to ensure personalized and varied recommendations, with periodic reordering and updating to prevent repetition and maintain user engagement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional recommendation systems prioritize popular distributors, then visibility for established content providers is improved, but user boredom increases and equal exposure for all distributors deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevisibility for established distributorsVSAvoidequal exposure for all distributors
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The recommendation system dynamically adjusts the criteria for selecting live streaming programs based on time-varying rules. It periodically changes the weighting between popularity-based criteria and diversity-based criteria, allowing popular distributors to maintain visibility while periodically promoting lesser-known distributors to ensure equal exposure opportunities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements periodic reordering of recommended content based on time-varying criterion rules. At certain intervals, it shifts from popularity-based ranking to diversity-based ranking, ensuring that different distributors receive exposure at different times, thus preventing user boredom while maintaining reliability for established distributors.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

2Device complexity

If recommendation systems provide static content lists, then system complexity is reduced, but user engagement deteriorates due to repetition

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem complexityVSAvoiduser engagement
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The recommendation system transitions from static to dynamic content selection by implementing time-varying criterion rules that automatically adjust the composition of recommended live streaming programs based on the current time period, user behavior patterns, and distributor performance metrics, thereby maintaining user engagement without excessive complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs automated algorithms that self-adjust the recommendation criteria based on pre-defined time-varying rules and performance feedback, eliminating the need for manual intervention while maintaining high user engagement through continuous content variation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Manufacturing precision

If recommendation systems use single criterion filtering, then manufacturing precision of recommendations is improved, but adaptability to diverse user preferences deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation precisionVSAvoidcustomization for user preferences
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The recommendation system segments the single criterion into multiple time-varying criteria that are applied at different intervals. It divides the recommendation process into phases, each with its own precision-optimized criterion, while the overall system adapts to diverse user preferences through the sequence of segmented criteria.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameters of the recommendation criteria over time, adjusting the weight and type of criteria based on user interaction patterns and time-of-day factors. This allows the system to maintain high precision for specific user segments at specific times while adapting to diverse preferences across different periods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to a system, a method and a computer-readable tangible non-transitory medium for recommending live streaming data. The method includes identifying a set of live streaming programs according to an attribute of the user and a tag of each live streaming program in the set of live streaming programs, generating a first subset of live streaming programs from the set of live streaming programs according to a first criterion, and generating a second subset of live streaming programs from the set of live streaming programs according to a second criterion. The first criterion is different from the second criterion. The present disclosure can recommend contents in a more efficient way and increase user engagements.
