Solution Overview

Problem

Current electronic devices lack an effective mechanism to filter content based on user intent, leading to irrelevant search results due to the inability to accurately analyze and utilize user intent information for content retrieval.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of a mechanism in electronic devices that receives and processes data clusters containing user intent information, filters content accordingly, and displays relevant items, using techniques such as incremental latent Dirichlet allocation and latent semantic analysis to identify user interests and preferences.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional search engines are used to retrieve content, then users can access a wide range of information, but the search results are often irrelevant to user intent

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverelevance of search resultsVSAvoiduser intent information
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of user intent information before content retrieval. Data clusters representing user interests are pre-generated and stored, allowing the system to quickly match user queries with relevant pre-analyzed data clusters, thereby improving search result relevance without losing user intent information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces data clusters as an intermediary between user intent and content retrieval. These data clusters serve as a mediator that bridges the gap between raw user input and the vast information database, enabling more precise matching while preserving the nuances of user intent

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If data clusters are used to filter content based on user intent, then search result relevance is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent filtering accuracyVSAvoidprocessing mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the vast information space into manageable data clusters based on user intent. By dividing content into organized clusters representing different user interests, the system achieves accurate content filtering without requiring complex processing of the entire information database at once

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Data clusters are pre-generated and stored before actual content retrieval operations. This preliminary organization of information into intent-based clusters reduces the complexity of real-time processing while maintaining high filtering accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
