Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional approaches are used to model entity behavior, then the model can be built, but it struggles to balance fixed and periodically updated information and requires sophisticated end-user intervention

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel accuracyVSAvoidend-user sophistication required
Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically performs data normalization, model training, and behavior prediction without requiring end-users to have sophisticated technical knowledge. The machine learning model self-adjusts to periodic data updates and automatically rebalances fixed and updated information, eliminating the need for manual model maintenance by non-expert users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Quantity of substance

If conventional approaches are used with large systems, then all data can be processed, but the sheer volume of data makes it difficult to draw correlations and normalize data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata volumeVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual data normalization and correlation-drawing processes with automated machine learning algorithms. The system automatically normalizes diverse data sources, draws correlations between data types, and processes large volumes of periodic updates without requiring complex manual intervention or sophisticated data processing infrastructure.

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

3Measurement precision

If conventional approaches are used, then the model can evaluate data, but end users struggle to interpret the results and make corrections

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebehavior prediction accuracyVSAvoidresult interpretability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces an automated machine learning model as an intermediary between raw data and user decision-making. The model translates complex behavioral data into interpretable predictions and automatically adjusts to user feedback through periodic retraining, bridging the gap between sophisticated analysis and user-friendly interpretation without requiring users to understand the underlying complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Reliability

If the system incorporates periodically updated information, then up-to-date predictions can be maintained, but computational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction currencyVSAvoidcomputational resources
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements periodic model retraining and data updates at scheduled intervals rather than continuously. This allows the model to maintain up-to-date predictions by incorporating periodic data updates while optimizing computational resource usage by processing changes only when necessary, rather than performing continuous heavy computations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

Systems and methods are provided for implementing a machine learning approach to modeling entity behavior. Fixed information and periodically updated information may be utilized to predict the behavior of an entity. By incorporating periodically updated information, the system is able to maintain an up-to-date prediction of each entity's behavior, while also accounting for entity action with respect to ongoing obligations. The system may generate behavior scores for the set of entities. In some embodiments, the behavior scores that are generated may indicate the transactional risk associated with each entity. Using the behavior scores generated, a user may be able to assess the credit riskiness of individual entities and instruct one or more individuals assigned to the entities to take one or more actions based on the credit riskiness of the individual entities.
