Solution Overview

Problem

The cosmetics market faces challenges such as overwhelming product choices, post-purchase dissonance, and low purchase motivation due to fragmented industry structures and over-the-top marketing. Consumers struggle to find products that match their individual needs and preferences.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for creating an ever-expanding, self-calibrating array of attributes that predicts and fulfills the gap between user perceptions and product attributes. This is achieved by defining n-dimensional attribute arrays, determining spatial extrapolation between vectors, and intelligently mapping and locating new data items within the arrays.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If linear product recommendations are used, then the system is simple and easy to implement, but the recommendations are static and cannot adapt to user feedback

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of recommendation systemVSAvoidadaptability to user feedback
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms static linear recommendations into dynamic multi-dimensional arrays that continuously adapt to user feedback and expert input. The system evolves from fixed parameters to flexible n-dimensional structures that can expand and recalibrate based on new data, enabling real-time adaptation while maintaining operational simplicity through automated processes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces n-dimensional arrays to move beyond linear one-dimensional recommendations. By adding multiple dimensions (user attributes, product attributes, feedback parameters, expert opinions), the system creates a multi-faceted recommendation space that captures complex relationships while preserving ease of use through systematic data organization and automated matching algorithms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If an n-dimensional array with ever-increasing parameters is created, then the system can account for user feedback and expert opinions, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecapability to incorporate multiple data sourcesVSAvoidcomplexity of data structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the complex n-dimensional data structure into manageable blocks, where each block represents a specific dimension or parameter category. This segmentation allows the system to handle vast amounts of data from multiple sources (users, experts, products) by organizing them into discrete, processable units that can be independently managed and combined.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal n-dimensional array framework that can accommodate diverse data types and sources through a single unified structure. This multi-functional data model handles user feedback, expert opinions, product attributes, and market data within the same systematic framework, reducing overall system complexity despite the versatility it provides.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Measurement precision

If the array is made non-linear to account for complex relationships, then the system can capture nuanced user-product fits, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprecision of product-user fit assessmentVSAvoiddifficulty of analyzing non-linear data
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms where user responses and expert evaluations continuously refine the non-linear relationships within the n-dimensional array. This feedback loop enables the system to learn from actual user-product interactions, automatically adjusting weights and correlations to improve measurement precision while managing the complexity of non-linear analysis through iterative optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical or linear analytical methods with computational algorithms capable of handling non-linear relationships. By using computer-based processing and automated calculations, the system can detect and measure complex non-linear patterns in user-product fits that would be intractable through manual or conventional methods.

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

4Adaptability or versatility

If the system expands to include more attributes and dimensions, then it can provide better personalization, but the loss of time for data processing increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelevel of personalizationVSAvoidtime for data processing
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-processing and organizing data into the n-dimensional array structure before actual recommendation queries. User profiles, product attributes, and relationship matrices are prepared and stored in advance, allowing the system to quickly retrieve and process recommendations without performing extensive real-time calculations, thus reducing processing time while maintaining high personalization levels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent maintains continuous useful action by continuously updating and refining the n-dimensional array as new data becomes available. Rather than periodic batch processing, the system continuously learns from new user feedback and expert inputs, keeping the recommendation engine current and accurate without requiring lengthy reprocessing cycles, thereby balancing personalization quality with processing efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action
