Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional recommendation systems struggle to generate personalized and tailored recommendations due to their reliance on historical data from limited sources, simplistic rule-based models, and inability to account for broader trends or real-time events impacting user goals.

Innovation Solution

An event-driven personalized recommendation system that utilizes machine learning models to classify user data based on personas, identify impactful events, and generate personalized recommendations for achieving specific goals by predicting optimal actions based on event impacts.

1Measurement precision

If conventional recommendation systems use historical data from limited sources and simplistic rule-based models, then the system complexity is low, but the recommendation personalization and accuracy deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the recommendation process into distinct functional modules: event identification module that detects user events from multi-source data, persona classification module that categorizes users into personas, and recommendation generation module that produces personalized recommendations. This segmentation allows each module to specialize in specific tasks, improving overall recommendation accuracy while managing system complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system transitions from traditional single-dimension historical data analysis to multi-dimensional analysis by integrating data from diverse sources (transactional data, behavioral data, contextual data), incorporating temporal dimension through event timing, and adding persona classification dimension. This dimensional expansion significantly improves recommendation personalization and accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system integrates multiple data sources and machine learning models to improve recommendation personalization, then the recommendation quality improves, but the data processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation personalizationVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-processing and categorizing user data into standardized formats, pre-defining persona classifications, and pre-identifying potential events from multi-source data streams. This preliminary organization of data and models enables faster real-time recommendation generation without sacrificing personalization quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements self-service mechanisms through automated event identification from raw data streams, automatic persona classification based on user behavior patterns, and dynamic recommendation generation that adapts to user changes without manual intervention. This automation reduces processing time by eliminating manual data preparation and model tuning steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If the system uses event-driven approach with multiple machine learning models to capture real-time user events, then the recommendation relevance improves, but the device complexity and model management difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation relevanceVSAvoidmodel management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system employs universal machine learning models that can handle multiple functions: the same event identification model processes events from different data sources, the persona classification model categorizes users across various contexts, and the recommendation model generates personalized suggestions for different user types. This multi-functionality reduces the number of specialized models needed, simplifying model management while maintaining high recommendation relevance.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces intermediary components including an event processing layer that standardizes events from diverse sources before model processing, a persona mapping layer that connects user characteristics to recommendation parameters, and a model orchestration layer that coordinates multiple ML models. These intermediaries simplify model management by providing standardized interfaces and abstraction layers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A method for generating predictive and event-based action recommendations includes receiving, from at least one data source, input data representative of a user; classifying, using a first machine learning model, the input data based on one or more personas representative of user characteristics to generate classified input data; identifying, from the input data, at least one event associated with the user; and generating, based on the at least one event and the classified input data, a personalized recommendation for the user using one or more second machine learning models, wherein the personalized recommendation comprises a set of actions predicted to achieve the goal based on the impact on the goal caused by the at least one event.
