Solution Overview

Problem

User interfaces, such as web pages, often present information in a standardized arrangement that may not align with individual user interests, requiring users to navigate to find relevant content, leading to an emphasis on uninteresting information.

Innovation Solution

Implementing an intelligent user interface that customizes web pages based on user interests by selecting and arranging information items according to their strength, using user profiles, browsing history, and other activity data to prioritize and visually emphasize relevant content, with options for user input on layout and importance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If standardized information arrangement is used, then device complexity is reduced and ease of manufacture is improved, but user engagement and information relevance deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of interface creationVSAvoiduser engagement
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts the user interface arrangement based on real-time analysis of user interests, browsing history, and interaction patterns. Information items are automatically repositioned, resized, and reorganized according to their relevance to the user's demonstrated preferences, creating a living interface that adapts continuously rather than remaining static

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The interface system automatically analyzes user behavior data, determines information relevance, and reconfigures the layout without requiring manual intervention. The system serves itself by using its own collected data to optimize its presentation, eliminating the need for manual customization while improving user engagement

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Productivity

If information is arranged by user interest strength, then user engagement and information relevance are improved, but device complexity and processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidinterface processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system replaces manual mechanical arrangement of interface elements with automated computational analysis. Machine learning algorithms and data processing systems automatically determine information hierarchy and spatial arrangement based on user behavior patterns, substituting complex manual configuration processes with intelligent automated systems

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary analysis of user interests and information relevance in advance of interface display. By pre-processing user data, browsing history, and content metadata before interface generation, the system prepares ranking and arrangement decisions beforehand, reducing real-time processing complexity during actual interface rendering

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of information

If personalized information selection is implemented, then information relevance is improved, but loss of time for data processing increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation relevanceVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of user interests, browsing patterns, and information relevance in advance of actual interface requests. User profiles and preference models are pre-computed and stored, allowing rapid retrieval and application during interface generation without performing full analysis each time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system updates user interest models and re-analyzes information relevance periodically rather than continuously. By refreshing the personalized interface configuration at scheduled intervals or triggered by significant user actions, the system maintains information relevance while avoiding constant processing overhead

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

User interfaces such as web pages may be customized in terms of appearance and content based on user interests. For example, information items may be arranged such that items corresponding to strong user interests are displayed in more visually identifiable locations while items corresponding to weaker user interests are displayed in less visually valuable positions. The size of and space allocated to the information items may also be customized based on the relative strengths of the corresponding interests. For example, information associated with a strong user interest may be allotted 50% of the user interface. Other visual characteristics of the user interface and the information items such as font size/style, color, transparency and the like may also be customized to reflect the importance or strength of corresponding user interfaces.
