Solution Overview

Problem

Existing graphical user interfaces struggle to effectively represent data with high variance, often resulting in incomprehensible or meaningless visualizations that require manual scaling adjustments by users.

Innovation Solution

A graphical user interface is designed with a dynamic scaling factor that adjusts in response to user interactions such as zooming and scrolling, ensuring that graph visual elements are optimally scaled to represent a continuous subset of graph data entries effectively.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If manual scaling adjustments are required by users to interpret graphical data, then the system provides basic visualization capability, but the ease of operation deteriorates and measurement precision worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidmeasurement precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The graphical user interface automatically performs scaling adjustments without requiring user intervention. The system monitors the display area and dynamically adjusts the scale of graph visual elements to optimize their representation, making the system self-sufficient in maintaining optimal visualization parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically changes scaling parameters based on the content being displayed. When graph data entries are added or removed, the interface automatically recalculates and adjusts scale parameters to maintain optimal visualization, eliminating the need for manual parameter adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Loss of information

If the graphical interface displays all graph data entries, then complete information is provided, but the area of stationary object worsens due to limited display space

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveloss of informationVSAvoidarea of stationary object
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The graphical interface divides the display into manageable segments by selectively displaying only the necessary graph visual elements based on current data entries. This segmentation allows the system to present complete information when needed while adapting to limited display space by showing only relevant portions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The interface dynamically adjusts which graph visual elements are displayed based on the current set of graph data entries. When data is added or removed, the system automatically updates the visible elements to maintain optimal use of display space while preserving information accessibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Area of stationary object

If graph visual elements are scaled to fit limited display space, then the area of stationary object is optimized, but manufacturing precision worsens in terms of accurate data representation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvearea of stationary objectVSAvoidmanufacturing precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts scaling parameters to balance display space constraints with accurate data representation. When graph data entries change, the interface recalculates optimal scale parameters that maintain both compact display and faithful representation of the data values.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The graphical user interface continuously monitors the display area and provides feedback to adjust scaling automatically. This feedback mechanism ensures that graph visual elements maintain accurate data representation while adapting to the constraints of limited display space.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A graphical user interface for display on a display screen of a user device is configured for display in a window occupying all or a portion of the display screen and has a first frame occupying a first frame region of the window. The first frame illustrates, adjacent to one another in a first dimension, graph visual elements each representing a respective graph data entry from a continuous subset among a sequence of graph data entries, each of the sequence having a defined placement and a quantitative value. The continuous subset is determined in response to selective zooming and/or scrolling of the first frame region by user interaction. The graph visual elements each have, in a second dimension, a linear extent or position determined according to the size of the first frame region in the second dimension, the quantitative value of the respective graph data entry, and dynamic scaling factor.
