Solution Overview

Problem

Current information push methods require manual selection of target users, leading to operational complexity and decreased information clicking ratios due to subjective and imprecise targeting.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that automatically select target users based on collected pushing parameters, including time of information push, user interaction data, and information visiting trends, to calculate and prioritize users with higher information clicking ratios.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If manual selection of target users is used, then operational simplicity is maintained, but information clicking ratio decreases due to subjective and imprecise targeting

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetargeting precisionVSAvoidoperational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically selects target users based on their own historical behavior data (visiting records, clicking habits, information preferences) without requiring manual intervention. The user database self-updates with interaction data, and the selection algorithm autonomously identifies high-probability target users, making the system self-servicing and eliminating manual operational complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical manual selection process with an automated computational system that uses algorithms to analyze user behavior data and calculate clicking probabilities. This substitution of mechanical human judgment with automated data processing achieves precise targeting while eliminating operational complexity

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

2Productivity

If automated selection based on multiple parameters is implemented, then information clicking ratio increases, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation clicking ratioVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-collects and stores user behavior data (visiting records, clicking habits, information preferences) in the user database before the information push operation. By preparing this data in advance, the actual selection process only requires retrieving and analyzing pre-processed information, which simplifies the real-time system complexity while maintaining high clicking ratio through comprehensive parameter analysis

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a user database as an intermediary layer between the information push system and the user selection process. This database stores and organizes user behavior data, serving as a mediator that provides structured input to the selection algorithm. The intermediary database simplifies system complexity by centralizing data management and providing ready-to-analyze user profiles

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
