Solution Overview

Problem

Current contact center systems incur high storage costs due to random recording of agent interactions, leading to redundant recordings for low-performing agents and insufficient recordings for high-performing agents, necessitating a predictive approach to optimize screen recording storage.

Innovation Solution

A computerized system employing supervised classification machine learning to predict evaluation likelihood values and determine recording and storage policies for agent interactions, optimizing storage usage by selectively recording and deleting data items based on agent performance metrics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If random recording of agent interactions is performed at a predetermined percentage, then storage costs are incurred, but the quality of evaluation is insufficient for high-performing agents and redundant for low-performing agents

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevaluation qualityVSAvoidstorage cost
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system changes the recording parameter from a fixed random percentage to a dynamic probability value that varies per agent based on performance metrics. High-performing agents receive lower recording probabilities while low-performing agents receive higher probabilities, optimizing both evaluation quality and storage costs

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary classification of agents into performance groups before determining recording policies. This preliminary action allows the system to pre-calculate appropriate recording probabilities for each agent based on their historical performance, ensuring that evaluation needs are met while minimizing redundant recordings

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Loss of information

If screen recording is performed for all agent interactions, then complete evaluation data is available, but storage costs become excessively high

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevaluation data completenessVSAvoidstorage space
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different recording qualities (probabilities) to different agents based on their local characteristics and performance levels. Instead of uniform recording for all agents, each agent receives a customized recording probability that matches their evaluation needs, reducing overall storage requirements while maintaining data completeness for those who need it

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs partial recording action by selecting only the necessary portion of interactions for recording based on agent performance. Rather than recording all interactions universally, the system applies recording action selectively to achieve sufficient evaluation data with minimal storage consumption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Quantity of substance

If recording percentage is reduced to save storage costs, then storage efficiency improves, but evaluation reliability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestorage efficiencyVSAvoidevaluation reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system changes the recording parameter from a uniform percentage to agent-specific probability values. This parameter transformation ensures that storage efficiency is improved through selective recording while evaluation reliability is maintained by allocating higher recording probabilities to agents who need more evaluation coverage

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
