Solution Overview

Problem

Consumers face challenges in selecting products due to the overwhelming number of options and lack of information about how these products will affect their bodies, particularly in terms of tolerability.

Innovation Solution

A system and method utilizing a computing device to receive user complaints, select relevant products, retrieve biological data, generate a classifier using machine-learning models trained on biological extractions and product data, and output a tolerability score for the user.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If consumers are provided with more product options, then product variety increases, but consumer decision-making becomes more difficult and overwhelming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduct varietyVSAvoiddecision-making ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses machine learning models to analyze user biological data and provide personalized feedback about product tolerability. The classifier processes biological extractions and returns predictive scores that guide consumers toward suitable products, creating a feedback loop that simplifies decision-making while maintaining product variety.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary system (the machine learning classifier) between the consumer and the product selection process. This intermediary analyzes biological data and provides objective tolerability assessments, mediating the complex interaction between product options and consumer needs to reduce decision-making burden.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of information

If product information is expanded to include biological effects, then product understanding improves, but information complexity and processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduct understandingVSAvoidinformation processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the most relevant biological data features needed for tolerability prediction, rather than processing all possible biological information. The machine learning model identifies and processes key biomarkers and biological extractions that are most predictive of product tolerability, reducing information complexity while maintaining understanding.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms complex biological data into simplified predictive parameters (tolerability scores). The machine learning classifier converts detailed biological extractions into standardized numerical outputs that are easy to interpret, changing the parameter representation from complex biological data to simple predictive scores.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If personalized product recommendations are generated using biological data, then product suitability improves, but computational requirements and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduct suitabilityVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis by pre-processing and storing biological data in structured formats (biological extractions) that can be quickly queried. The machine learning model is pre-trained on comprehensive datasets, allowing it to rapidly generate tolerability predictions without requiring extensive processing time during actual product recommendations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates simplified representations (copies) of complex biological data through biological extractions. These extracted features serve as compressed versions of the full biological dataset, enabling fast processing while retaining the essential information needed for accurate tolerability prediction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
