Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an area relationship model as an intermediary component that captures spatial relationships between different geographic areas. This model serves as a mediator that processes raw data and provides structured information for prediction, improving accuracy by incorporating geographic context without requiring complex manual analysis.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If automated data processing is used to predict user resident area, then prediction efficiency and accuracy are improved, but data privacy protection requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction efficiencyVSAvoidprivacy risk
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an area relationship model as an intermediary that processes geographic data without requiring direct access to sensitive personal information. The model aggregates and anonymizes data at the area level rather than individual level, enabling efficient prediction while reducing privacy risks through data abstraction and aggregation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
