Solution Overview

Problem

As data sets have exponentially increased in size and complexity, existing methods lack efficiency in processing these data sets, particularly in identifying and bucketing sparse indicators, which are crucial for effective communication generation.

Innovation Solution

A system and method that assign sparse indicators to data buckets using a workflow with a hierarchical structure, where each sparse indicator undergoes automated processing through multiple stages based on its position, values, and previous stage results, determining its bucket assignment and generating communications if the indicator count exceeds a predefined threshold.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If traditional data processing methods are used on exponentially growing data sets, then data set size increases, but processing efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata set sizeVSAvoidprocessing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the data set into multiple data buckets based on sparse indicator characteristics. Each bucket contains data with similar sparse indicator patterns, enabling parallel and independent processing of each segment. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by allowing the system to handle larger data sets through distributed processing rather than monolithic processing, thereby maintaining processing efficiency despite increasing data volume.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the processing parameters by identifying and extracting sparse indicators (data points that differ from reference values) and using them as the basis for bucketing. Instead of processing all data uniformly, the system processes only the sparse indicators that contain the meaningful differences. This parameter change enables efficient processing by focusing computational resources on the most relevant data characteristics, resolving the efficiency problem while handling large data sets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive data analysis is performed to identify all sparse indicators, then detection precision improves, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesparse indicator detection precisionVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts only the sparse indicators from the complete data set, separating these meaningful differences from the redundant data that matches reference values. By taking out only the sparse indicators for further processing and analysis, the system achieves comprehensive detection precision on the relevant data points while significantly reducing processing time by excluding unnecessary data from the analysis pipeline.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies partial action by performing complete and precise analysis only on the sparse indicators rather than on the entire data set. This selective partial processing achieves the necessary detection precision for the critical few data points that differ from references, while avoiding the time cost of analyzing all data points. The approach recognizes that exhaustive analysis of all data is excessive when only sparse indicators contain meaningful information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Loss of information

If detailed bucketing of sparse indicators is implemented, then communication generation quality improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication generation qualityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments sparse indicators into distinct data buckets based on their characteristics and patterns. This segmentation enables detailed analysis and high-quality communication generation by organizing sparse indicators into meaningful categories. The bucketing structure provides a systematic framework that improves information retention and communication quality while managing complexity through organized classification rather than unstructured detailed processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
