Solution Overview

Problem

Complex and heterogeneous resource deployment scenarios in enterprises pose challenges in efficiently utilizing resources, as existing methods lack effective prediction tools to match resources with deployment scenarios, leading to inefficiencies in resource allocation.

Innovation Solution

An ensemble machine learning model is trained on aggregated data from various enterprise sources, incorporating natural language and numeric data to predict resource deployment parameters by determining matching scores between resource candidates and deployment scenarios, thus optimizing resource allocation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional resource allocation methods are used, then simplicity and ease of operation are maintained, but resource deployment accuracy and success rate deteriorate due to inability to handle complex heterogeneous resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource deployment prediction accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the resource deployment prediction task into multiple independent machine learning models, each specialized in predicting specific deployment parameters (e.g., success rate, compensation, timeline). This segmentation allows each model to focus on specific aspects, improving overall prediction accuracy while maintaining manageable system complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal resource deployment prediction system that handles diverse heterogeneous resources (human resources, equipment, software) through a common multi-model machine learning framework. The system processes various input data types (structured, unstructured, semi-structured) uniformly, enabling it to predict deployment outcomes across different resource types without requiring separate specialized systems for each resource category.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive data from multiple enterprise sources is aggregated, then prediction accuracy improves, but data processing complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedeployment parameter prediction accuracyVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-processing and aggregating data from multiple enterprise sources before the actual prediction is needed. Historical resource deployment data, resource characteristics, and scenario information are collected, cleaned, and structured in advance, creating ready-to-use feature sets that can be quickly fed into the machine learning models when predictions are required, thus reducing real-time processing time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual or rule-based data processing mechanisms with automated machine learning models. Instead of using complex mechanical or procedural methods to analyze heterogeneous data from multiple sources, the system employs ML algorithms that automatically process and synthesize the data, significantly reducing processing time while maintaining or improving accuracy.

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

3Measurement precision

If natural language processing is applied to match resources with deployment scenarios, then matching accuracy improves, but computational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource-scenario matching accuracyVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces natural language processing as an intermediary layer between raw resource/scenario descriptions and the machine learning models. The NLP component converts unstructured text descriptions into structured features or embeddings that can be efficiently processed by the prediction models, improving matching accuracy while keeping the overall system complexity manageable through this intermediate representation layer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Reliability

If ensemble machine learning models are used, then prediction reliability improves, but model complexity and training requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedeployment prediction reliabilityVSAvoidmodel complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The ensemble prediction system is segmented into multiple specialized machine learning models, each trained to predict specific deployment parameters (success rate, compensation, timeline). This segmentation allows each model to be relatively simple and focused, while the ensemble combination of these specialized models achieves high overall reliability. The modular structure manages complexity by breaking down the prediction task into independent sub-tasks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

Embodiments are generally directed to systems and methods for generating resource deployment predictions using an ensemble machine learning model. An ensemble machine learning model trained or configured by an aggregated data set can be provided, where the aggregated data set includes data about resources deployed in enterprise deployment scenarios aggregated from a plurality of enterprise sources. Data about a first resource can be received including natural language data and numeric score data. A matching score between the first resource and a first enterprise deployment scenario can be determined based on a matching between natural language data descriptive of the first resource and natural language data descriptive of the first enterprise deployment scenario. Resource deployment parameters can be predicted using the ensemble machine learning model based on the determined matching score and the received numeric score data about the first resource.
