Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If conventional models are used for interest tag prediction, then the model structure is simple and easy to implement, but the accuracy is insufficient and the model cannot capture deep semantic information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinterest tag prediction accuracyVSAvoidmodel structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a nested neural network structure where an inner neural network processes semantic vectors generated by an outer semantic enhanced representation frame. This nested architecture allows the model to capture deep semantic information through multiple layers of processing, significantly improving interest tag prediction accuracy while managing complexity through hierarchical organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a semantic enhanced representation frame that transforms traditional one-dimensional tag prediction into a multi-dimensional semantic space. By incorporating social network aggregation and deep semantic representation, the model operates in higher dimensions to capture complex user interest patterns, thereby improving prediction accuracy beyond what conventional two-dimensional models can achieve.

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

2Measurement precision

If rule-based methods are used for obtaining interest tags, then the implementation is simple and fast, but the characteristic expression is insufficient and cannot capture user interests accurately

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces rule-based mechanical processing with a neural network-based semantic processing system. Instead of using fixed rules to match keywords with tags, the model uses semantic enhanced representation frames and neural networks to understand and infer user interests from textual data, achieving more accurate and flexible interest tag prediction.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the fundamental parameters of interest tag prediction by moving from discrete rule-based matching to continuous semantic vector representations. The model uses semantic enhanced representation frames that transform textual features into continuous vectors, enabling more nuanced and accurate interest capture compared to traditional discrete parameter approaches.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If conventional models are used, then the training process is simple and fast, but overfitting occurs and the model lacks generalization capability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel generalization capabilityVSAvoidtraining time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary action by pre-training the semantic enhanced representation frame and neural network models using extensive training data and social network aggregation before actual inference. This pre-training phase establishes robust feature representations and relationships that improve generalization capability during subsequent application, reducing the need for extensive retraining on new data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces social network aggregation as an intermediary component between user data and interest tag prediction. This intermediary layer processes and aggregates social network information to create enriched semantic vectors, which then feed into the neural network for tag prediction. This intermediary structure improves generalization by providing a more comprehensive view of user interests through social context.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Adaptability or versatility

If the model does not incorporate social networks, then the structure is simple, but the cold start problem occurs and the model cannot accurately predict interests of new users

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent makes the social network aggregation component universal by designing it to handle multiple scenarios: it can process existing user data, infer interests for new users through social network connections, and adapt to different user profiles. This multi-functional approach enables the model to address cold start problems for new users while maintaining effectiveness for existing users, thereby improving overall adaptability.

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