Solution Overview

Problem

Smart customer service systems require users to input information multiple times, leading to inefficiencies in data collection due to the need for repeated questions and prolonged user interaction.

Innovation Solution

A data processing method and device that displays user input data in one section and outputs related sub-contents in another section, prompting users to input corresponding information at specific target positions, thereby reducing the need for multiple question outputs and improving efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If the smart customer service system asks the user for information multiple times through multiple questions, then the user can provide detailed information, but the time required for information collection increases and efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of user informationVSAvoidtime for information collection
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple separate questions into a single comprehensive input interface. Instead of asking users multiple sequential questions about their information needs, the system presents all required information fields simultaneously in one unified input section, allowing users to provide complete information in a single interaction cycle.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms the sequential temporal dimension of multiple questions into a spatial parallel structure. All information fields are displayed and collected simultaneously in a multi-section layout rather than being asked one after another, changing the interaction from a time-based sequence to a space-based parallel arrangement.

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

2Ease of operation

If the smart customer service system outputs one question at a time, then the user can focus on each question individually, but the overall process becomes lengthy and inefficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser focus on individual questionsVSAvoidefficiency of information collection
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the information collection interface into multiple distinct sections (first section, second section, third section), each handling different types of information. This segmentation allows users to focus on specific areas while seeing the complete structure, maintaining ease of operation through organized presentation while improving productivity by enabling simultaneous completion of all sections.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A data processing method includes obtaining a first input data of a user, the first input data being displayed in a first section and outputting a first content in a second section different from the first section based on the first input data. The first content includes a plurality of sub-contents. The plurality of sub-contents are based on phrases correlated with the first input data. The first content prompts for input corresponding contents at a plurality of target positions corresponding to the plurality of the sub-contents. The plurality of target positions are correlated with the phrases corresponding to the plurality of sub-contents.
