Operation Log Extraction for Shared Investigation Procedures
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies fail to clarify investigation procedures shared among multiple operators without using unique graphical user interface (GUI) operation tools, and robotic process automation (RPA) only records individual operator actions without clarifying shared knowledge.
Innovation Solution
An extraction device that collects operation logs from multiple operators and extracts a series of common operations using methods like longest common subsequence, n-gram analysis, or state transition modeling to identify shared procedures.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a unique GUI operation tool is used to record and analyze operator actions, then the precision of procedure extraction is improved, but the device complexity and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical GUI operation tool with an automated information processing system that uses operating system APIs to directly capture operation logs. This substitution eliminates the need for manual GUI interaction while maintaining high precision in procedure extraction, as the system automatically records operations through programmatic interfaces rather than manual tool operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary information processing device that acts as a mediator between the operator's computer and the analysis system. This intermediary captures operation logs through the operating system without requiring the operator to use a unique GUI tool, thereby maintaining extraction precision while reducing device complexity and ease of operation requirements.
2Measurement precision
If a unique GUI operation tool is used to record operator actions, then the measurement precision is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual GUI operation tool with an automated information processing system that uses operating system APIs to directly capture operation logs. This substitution eliminates the need for manual GUI interaction while maintaining high precision in procedure extraction, as the system automatically records operations through programmatic interfaces rather than manual tool operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The information processing device performs self-service by automatically capturing and analyzing operation logs without requiring the operator to manually operate a unique GUI tool. The system uses the existing operating system interfaces to record operations, making the process transparent and easy for operators while maintaining high extraction precision.
3Ease of operation
If individual operator operations are recorded as-is, then the ease of operation is improved, but the productivity deteriorates due to inability to clarify shared procedures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges individual operation logs from multiple operators by identifying and extracting common operation sequences. The information processing device combines data from multiple sources, finds overlapping patterns, and synthesizes a shared investigation procedure, thereby improving productivity while maintaining ease of operation through automated processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses feedback mechanisms to iteratively refine the extraction of common procedures. By analyzing operation logs, identifying patterns, and continuously improving the extraction algorithm, the system enhances productivity in clarifying shared procedures while maintaining ease of operation through automated, adaptive processing.
4Productivity
If operation logs from multiple operators are collected and analyzed, then the productivity is improved by clarifying shared procedures, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The information processing device performs multiple functions using a unified approach: it collects operation logs, analyzes patterns, extracts common procedures, and outputs results. This multi-functional design improves productivity by clarifying shared procedures while managing device complexity through a single, versatile system rather than multiple specialized tools.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex manual analysis methods with an automated information processing system that uses standard operating system interfaces. This substitution improves productivity by automatically clarifying shared procedures while managing device complexity through programmatic automation rather than manual processes.

AI summary
An extraction device includes processing circuitry configured to collect, from an operating system (OS) of a computer operated by each of operators, an operation log indicating an operation of the computer of each of the operators when each of the operators operates the computer to conduct an investigation, and extract a series of operations common to the operators from collected operation logs of the operators and output the extracted series of operations.
