Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If current digital twin technologies are used to represent physical health states, then physiological status can be simulated, but mental state simulation capability is lacking

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemental state simulation capabilityVSAvoidaccuracy of mental state representation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The digital twin system is segmented into separate modules: a physical digital twin for physiological parameters and a mental digital twin for psychological states. This segmentation allows independent development and optimization of each twin type, enabling accurate mental state simulation without compromising the physical health representation capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges physical and mental digital twins into an integrated system where both physical and mental states are represented simultaneously. This combination enables comprehensive health monitoring and allows the system to capture the interconnectedness between physical and mental health, improving overall reliability of the digital twin representation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Measurement precision

If digital twins are updated continuously with new data, then accuracy of mental state representation improves, but data processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of mental state representationVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-processing and storing historical mental state data in a database before new data arrives. When updates are needed, the system queries relevant historical data rather than processing all data from scratch, significantly reducing real-time processing complexity while maintaining high accuracy through comprehensive data consideration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where new mental state data is continuously compared with historical data and model predictions. This feedback loop allows the digital twin to self-correct and refine its representation, improving accuracy over time while the feedback algorithm manages processing complexity by focusing computational resources on meaningful updates rather than redundant calculations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If mental state data is collected from multiple sources, then comprehensiveness of mental health assessment improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensiveness of mental health assessmentVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system employs a universal data collection framework that can accommodate multiple data sources (self-reporting, physiological sensors, environmental data, historical records) through a common processing architecture. This multi-functional design allows the system to integrate diverse data types without requiring separate processing pipelines for each source, thereby managing complexity while maintaining comprehensive assessment capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
