Solution Overview

Problem

Users face the challenge of finding correlated media content across various sources for a specific topic, as existing systems fail to capture and present the correlation between different types of media content in a chronological and cohesive manner.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that utilizes a combination of long short-term memory (LSTM) modules with natural language processing (NLP) to identify and sequence statements and responses across multiple types of media content, such as video and audio, to generate a chronological media content presentation file that highlights relevant information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If multi-type media content from various sources is collected, then the quantity and diversity of content is improved, but the difficulty of finding correlated content and understanding chronological relationships worsens

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity and diversity of media contentVSAvoiddifficulty of finding correlated content and understanding chronological relationships
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments media content into discrete statements and responses that can be individually analyzed and correlated. By breaking down the content into smaller, identifiable units with temporal metadata, the system can process and relate information across multiple sources without being overwhelmed by the complexity of the entire content corpus.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary processing layer that includes statement-response identification modules and chronological sequencing algorithms. This intermediary layer mediates between the raw multi-type media content and the user's information needs, automatically establishing correlations and temporal relationships that would otherwise require manual search and analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If media content from multiple sources is aggregated, then the comprehensiveness of topic coverage is improved, but the coherence and chronological organization of the content deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of topic coverageVSAvoidcoherence and chronological organization
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary actions by extracting temporal metadata and establishing chronological sequences before presenting the aggregated content. Statements and responses are pre-sorted by time, and correlated content is pre-organized into coherent narratives, so that when the content is delivered to the user, it maintains logical flow and chronological accuracy without requiring additional processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the organizational parameters of the aggregated content by sorting and sequencing statements and responses based on temporal characteristics. This parameter transformation converts disorganized multi-source content into a coherent chronological structure, maintaining completeness while improving organization through systematic reordering based on time-based parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Measurement precision

If users search across various sources to identify correlations, then the ability to find specific information is improved, but the time and effort required for content consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to find specific informationVSAvoidtime and effort for content consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by automatically performing the correlation and chronological organization work that would otherwise require user manual search and analysis. The system independently identifies statement-response pairs, establishes temporal relationships, and presents pre-organized content, freeing users from the time-consuming task of manually searching across multiple sources while maintaining the precision of information retrieval.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A method for chronologically aggregating media content for a specific topic from media content providers includes receiving multi-type media content relating to the specific topic, where the multi-type media content includes at least a first type of media content and a second type of media content. Identifying a first statement in a first portion of the first type of media content that responds to a second statement in a second portion of the second type of media content. Determining a chronological sequence for the first portion of the first type of media content and the second portion of the second type of media content, where the first portion of the first type of media content occurs after the second portion of the first type of media content. Generating a final media content presentation file for the determined chronological sequence.
