Solution Overview

Problem

The overwhelming task of analyzing vast amounts of data generated by modern tools, such as audio, video, and text files, requires a more efficient method to prioritize files that are likely to contain useful information, rather than relying solely on manual processing by analysts.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent analysis queue construction system that utilizes processing circuitry to determine identity, word, and metadata scores, combining them into a composite priority score to electronically prioritize content files for human analysts, thereby optimizing the allocation of analyst time.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If more analysts are hired to process data, then the quantity of analyzed files increases, but the cost and complexity of the system increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity of analyzed filesVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

An automated queue management system acts as an intermediary between raw intelligence data and human analysts. The system calculates priority scores based on multiple factors (data source reliability, content keywords, metadata) and automatically orders the analysis queue, eliminating the need for manual prioritization by analysts and optimizing resource allocation without hiring additional personnel.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If analysts manually review all files, then comprehensive analysis is achieved, but the time required increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive analysisVSAvoidanalysis time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary sorting and prioritization of files before analysts begin their review work. By pre-calculating priority scores based on data source credibility, content analysis, and metadata, the system prepares an optimized queue that guides analysts through high-value files first, ensuring comprehensive analysis of critical data while minimizing time spent on low-priority items.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If files are prioritized based on multiple factors, then the accuracy of prioritization improves, but the complexity of the scoring system increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprioritization accuracyVSAvoidscoring system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The prioritization system is segmented into three independent scoring modules: data source scoring (evaluating source reliability and credibility), content scoring (analyzing keywords, phrases, and information density), and metadata scoring (assessing file attributes and contextual data). Each module operates independently and contributes to the final priority score, making the complex system manageable and transparent while maintaining high prioritization accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A method of processing content files may include receiving the content file, employing processing circuitry to determine an identity score of a source of a portion of at least a portion the content file, to determine a word score based for the content file and to determine a metadata score for the content file, determining a composite priority score based on the identity score, the word score and the metadata score, and associating the composite priority score with the content file for electronic provision of the content file together with the composite priority score to a human analyst.
