Happiness Score Computation for Property Transactions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems for real estate transactions do not consider the psychological state and health of surrounding residents when determining property prices or rental values, leading to suboptimal decision-making.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device and method that computes a happiness score based on user information, including emotional, activity, and health data, to generate property information that accounts for the positivity of a region, thereby enhancing transaction satisfaction.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If property prices are determined based on traditional factors (area, layout, location), then pricing can be calculated using conventional methods, but the pricing does not reflect the actual quality of life and satisfaction of surrounding residents

Engineering Contradiction:
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary computation of happiness scores for different regions before property transactions occur. By pre-calculating these scores based on user information and survey data, the system prepares quality-of-life metrics in advance that can be immediately applied to property pricing and selection, eliminating the need for last-minute assessments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The happiness score acts as an intermediary metric that bridges traditional property factors and resident satisfaction. Instead of directly measuring complex social and psychological factors, the system uses this intermediate score to translate various user information inputs into a quantifiable measure that can influence pricing decisions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If property information does not include happiness score data, then information processing is simpler, but transaction satisfaction is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The happiness score computation system serves multiple functions: it evaluates regional quality of life, influences property pricing, guides property selection, and provides decision support for transactions. This multi-functional approach allows a single metric to address various aspects of property transactions, maintaining simplicity while enhancing reliability.

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

3Reliability

If happiness score computation is implemented, then property transactions can consider resident positivity, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential elements needed for happiness score computation from user information, focusing on key survey responses and demographic data. By selecting and processing only the most relevant information rather than analyzing all possible data points, the system maintains computational efficiency while capturing the essence of resident satisfaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
