Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems fail to fully exploit user interests and needs by not providing personalized information based on location, leading to a passive response mode and limited user interaction.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that record user areas, calculate relationship strength, and push personalized point of interest information when the user enters a new area, using a formula to determine the resident area and combining search, subscription, and behavior information to provide relevant content.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the server uses a passive response mode to provide information, then the system complexity is low, but the user experience and information relevance are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The server performs preliminary actions by recording user location history, calculating resident areas, and pre-processing point of interest information before users actually need it. This allows the system to quickly provide personalized recommendations when users enter new areas, improving user experience without requiring complex real-time processing during user interactions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables self-service by automatically tracking user locations, determining resident areas through frequency analysis, and pushing relevant information without requiring users to actively search or request data. The server autonomously monitors user behavior patterns and delivers personalized content based on calculated relationship strengths

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Loss of information

If the server pushes generic information to all users, then the information coverage is broad, but the information relevance and personalization are poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation relevanceVSAvoidinformation processing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by providing different information to different users based on their specific location patterns and resident areas. Each user receives personalized point of interest recommendations tailored to their individual behavior characteristics, rather than uniform generic information, thereby maximizing information relevance for each user segment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The server dynamically changes information parameters based on user location data, calculating relationship strength values that determine which point of interest information to push. The system adjusts information delivery parameters such as push timing, content type, and target areas based on analyzed user behavior patterns, achieving personalization through parameter optimization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Measurement precision

If the server records and analyzes detailed user location data, then the personalization accuracy improves, but the data processing complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresident area identification accuracyVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system skips time-consuming complex calculations by using frequency-based metrics to determine resident areas. Instead of performing sophisticated real-time analysis, the server efficiently processes location data by counting visits and applying simple relationship strength formulas, quickly identifying user patterns and delivering personalized information without excessive processing delays

Inventive Principle:
Principle #21Skipping (Rushing through)
