Solution Overview

Problem

Current virtual communities face challenges in ensuring the reliability of information and information providers due to anonymity, making it difficult to verify the accuracy of information and leading to less effective information dissemination.

Innovation Solution

A geographic position information-based community interconnection method and system that uses geographic position information and identity information as network nodes for registration and authentication, allowing users to create a community network, upload and search for information and services, and perform credit classification based on financial condition, thereby ensuring the reliability of information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If anonymity is employed in virtual communities, then user privacy and freedom are protected, but the reliability of information and information providers cannot be ensured

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereliability of informationVSAvoidauthentication system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The authentication system is segmented into multiple independent modules: geographic position acquisition module, identity information verification module, credit classification module, and information release module. Each module handles a specific aspect of verification, distributing the complexity across separate functional units rather than a monolithic system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system adds geographic position as a new dimension for user identification beyond traditional anonymous usernames. By incorporating spatial location data (latitude, longitude, address) as an additional verification layer, the system enhances reliability without requiring complete identity disclosure, thus resolving the contradiction between anonymity and trustworthiness.

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

2Reliability

If geographic position information and identity information are collected for verification, then information reliability is improved, but user privacy and system complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation reliabilityVSAvoiduser registration convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary credit classification and verification during the user registration phase rather than at the point of information consumption. Geographic position and identity information are collected and processed in advance, creating a pre-established trust framework that enables faster, more convenient operations later without repeated verification overhead.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system transforms qualitative trust assessments into quantitative credit scores by processing geographic position accuracy, identity verification results, and financial condition data through classification algorithms. This parameter transformation converts complex privacy-sensitive data into simplified credit ratings that ease subsequent operational decisions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If credit classification based on financial condition is implemented, then information dissemination effectiveness is improved, but system complexity and data processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation dissemination effectivenessVSAvoidcredit classification system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The credit classification system acts as an intermediary layer between users and information dissemination processes. Instead of directly analyzing complex financial data during information exchange, the system pre-processes financial conditions into credit scores that mediate subsequent information release decisions, simplifying the complexity of real-time financial assessment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

Credit classification based on financial condition is performed in advance during user onboarding and periodic updates, rather than during each information dissemination event. This preliminary credit assessment creates a ready-to-use trust metric that accelerates information exchange effectiveness without requiring complex real-time financial analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A geographic position information-based community interconnection method may comprise creating a community network using geographic position information and identity information as network nodes; when a user terminal logs onto the community network for the first time, registration and authentication may need to be completed. The method may include receiving information and/or services for interaction, and uploading the received information and/or services to the community network server. The user terminal may acquire desired information and/or services by searching the information and/or services stored in the visible space.
