Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary system comprising a processor and memory that automatically processes brain functional connectivity data. This intermediary translates complex high-dimensional brain data into clinically actionable insights, bridging the gap between raw data and clinical diagnosis without requiring clinicians to manually parse the complex data structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the manual mechanical process of clinician data inspection with an automated computational system. The processor executes algorithms that automatically analyze brain functional connectivity data, substituting the manual cognitive and physical work of clinicians with automated computational analysis, thereby eliminating time loss while maintaining diagnostic capability.

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

2Reliability

If clinicians manually analyze complex brain data, then they can identify relevant anomalies, but the complexity and high-dimensionality of the data make the process difficult and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:

AI summary

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining a mental state of a patient based on a natural language input and determining whether a relevant subset of brain data is anomalous. One of the methods includes receiving a natural language input describing at least one aspect of a mental state or of a behavior of an individual; generating a prompt based on at least in part the natural language input; submitting the prompt to a large language model; receiving at least one functional network that influences the at least one aspect of a mental state or of a behavior; for each network of the at least one functional network, analyzing MRI data for the individual to determine whether the network is anomalous; displaying to a user each network and whether it is anomalous; and taking an action in response to the displaying.
